What an interesting day in BuLi.
Mainz beat Leipzig, Wolfsburg over Leverkusen, Union stunned by Augsburg, and Hertha continues to sink like a stone getting crushed by Werder 4-1.
Still obviously miles to go but Hertha dangerously close to finding themselves in the relegation playoff.

I don’t think any club ever thought about challenging Bayern in the post-Klopp era.
I think Leipzig and Dortmund are only interested in qualifying for Champions League and getting hefty fees from players’ sale.
I can’t see Julian Nagelsmann staying beyond his contract period. Unless, Bayern comes calling.

I think Bayern showed how dominate they were in lockdown, not surprised Dortmund have struggled without fans.

Leipzig have a lot of good players but probably lack a bit of star quality up front.
Dortmund have that quality but plenty of other issues elsewhere. Whilst he’s not the only problem I struggle to see how Burki is still a professional footballer, I’m not sure id swap him for Adrian. Dortmund would be much better off even with a keeper of Sommer or Gulacsi’s quality.

In a shock to no one, Hertha fire Preetz and Labaddia with immediate effect. I’ll admit, I bought into the Bruno revolution in the early stages. Only way from here is up.

Yeah, and they never try to build a squad to challenge Bayern. In the summer Leipzig (Upamecano), Dortmund (Sancho), Leverkusen (Wirtz) will sell some of their key players and start all over again.

Interesting to see a struggling Schalke (#16, £195.4 m) and a midtable Eintracht Frankfurt (#20, £152.6 m) making the The Deloitte Football Money League while likes of Leipzig and Leverkusen missing out.
I know it’s the 2019/20 figures and the money for Timo Werner and Kai Havertz sales haven’t been factored in. Still it’s surprising, specially considering Leipzig (CL) and Leverkusen (EL) played in Europe as well.

1-3 Hertha lose again. Pal Dardai can’t get the boys on the new/old manager bounce.
Karius didn’t play bad in his appearance. He didn’t give up a goal, so that’s a plus.

Any idea when Andreas Luthe will return. I’m terrified about Union with Karius in the goal.

The tier side its Rot-Weiss Essen and I am showing my age now my German friends the 70 Willy Lippens (the Duck) was a big player for Rot-Weiss and he was Dutch-German, could play a bit. Watch them many times on Der Sportschau in these days, brings back memories and I can’t believe they are at 4th tier side, what happened?

I remember Willy well, what a player he was, a joy to watch

I clearly remember the commentators in those days, Jetzt wird es dramatisch, spiel auf ein tor, they said that in almost every match in the last 15 minutes.

While Bayern keeps moving on and on and on, the chasing pack keeps tumbling over each other.
