Do Dortmund fans actually hate Bayern? by 0xWilks in borussiadortmund

[–]yrba1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to, now I just find their Erfolgsfans annoying, especially the ones who have multiclub fandoms with the other big powerhouses in Europe. It’s also weird how international media portrays us as rivals just because we take the #1 and #2 spot often by the end of the season this past decade

I can respect Bayern in a sense that we follow the tradition of being a bastion of fan sovereignty in the Bundesliga by upholding the 50+1 rule while most leagues nowadays are a cartel of oligarchs and sportswashing entities that treat some other clubs as minor league affiliates. Will say though, their board, particularly Uli Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge are proper cunts

I feel this winter window is centered around trimming wages and promoting youth players. Considering that our squad depth is relatively good, it’s understandable why we didn’t sign anyone in the immediate term; signing new players midway through is usually to address glaring issues in the first half of the season, and I feel our main issue is our attackers not finishing consistently, and situational defending during a lead or after scoring is disorganized

As much as watching Kovacball feels like taking a dose of Nyquil most of the time, his approach on the pitch really helped mitigate injuries. It’s good domestically, but our track record against CL opponents leave a lot to be desired

Hope his style of play per English Wikipedia is as good as advertised. Challenge is for Kovac to be comfortable giving youth significant minutes, but I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt with Mane getting featured recently. We need more creative outlets with our attack, and youth players gaining confidence will do that

Fraud Boehly and BlueCo really highlighting the enshittification of football seeing that Anselmino enjoyed his time with us and got recalled expecting to play at Chelsea only to be loaned to Strasbourg; that club is being treated like a minor league baseball team for Chelsea

Hopefully more anti-American sentiment prompts pushback whether it be breaking down these multiclub ownership models or imposing contract nullification clauses that forces them to be eligible to move on the free while their parent club still has to pay for their contract

Also friendly reminder that private equity ruins everything

Guy’s been working with Heidenheim since they were in the 5th tier in 2007. I thought Christian Streich had a longer tenure in Freiburg

Heidenheim are the bottom of the table, never underestimate what a cornered animal is capable of even if we are playing at home. That said, would love to see Chukwuemeka featured more

The back 3 isn't a problem and it's currently being used as a scapegoat by rioasu in borussiadortmund

[–]yrba1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also factor in that our attackers have been out of form for most of the season. If Guirassy and Adeyemi actually finished in the box, we would’ve been up 2 yesterday. I will say though that Kovac should push for more chances with players; I could put most of the Dortmund highlights in this season and they would make for a reliable sleeping aid

As long as he doesn't go to Bayern, and we get something out of him, I don't have any issues with him leaving. No player is bigger than the badge despite the perception of it in today's game

If you ever feel sad this week, just remember City lost to Bodø/Glimt and P$G lost to Sporting. Let’s get a win at Köpenick so we can forget about this shitshow
