Diego out and van Bruyne in is basically the exemplary transfer of the new Wolfsburg management. Out with overpriced gash and in with young players that are proven in the league and promoting youngsters like Arnold to the first team.

We've been hosed over by Weiner so many times that this decision is not only absolutely correct, but also so, so sweet.

Dunban posted:It's not like we're completely invincible or whatever. We nearly lost against Stuttgart for gently caress's sake. Our toughest game of the season so far was against Hertha - if a team that was just promoted can give us that much trouble then every single club in the Bundesliga can. I'm not sure why it's supposed to be Bayern's responsibility to keep the league fair or whatever. I mean, what are we supposed to do? Intentionally play worse? Not sign the players we need to sign and are able to get? Nobody expects Bayern fans to be sad about their team dominating the league. But coming in here and saying everything is fine and that the rest of the teams just need to step up their game and that nothing needs to be changed is quite grating. Nobody has even remotely the same financial resources as Bayern. That is the kind of structural advantage that leads to Bayern bosses freaking out if they don't win the league two times in a row! A fix would be to redistribute TV money and the like a bit better. They try to keep the teams and drivers on even footing in the Formula 1, they should do it in the Bundesliga as well. In America the worst NFL teams have first dibs on the best players coming up, and if that kind of socialism is the norm in the country of free markets, it should be possible here in Europe as well.

I keep hearing that Hamburg pretty much should be where Bayern are in terms of money and support, why aren't they and what does that even mean?

TV money is distributed about as fairly as humanly possible here. Look at loving La Liga and how much cash Barca and Real are getting compared to the rest of the Spanish teams.

Also something something no relegation and lingering for twenty years before you get enough resources for a title before oblivion takes grip of your team again while people reminisce about the squad of '69 watching the current crop of shitcloggers.

oh em gee bee ess posted:I keep hearing that Hamburg pretty much should be where Bayern are in terms of money and support, why aren't they and what does that even mean? The answer to that is simply Uli Hoeneß. He is one of those guys who has the combination of having some business sense as well as having his heart in the right place. He kept the right people around and probably had a big part in keeping that Bayern esprit de corps in the management big. Having a guy like him take over at the age of 27(!!!) and running things for 30+ years was absolutely massive for Bayern. Many other historically big clubs like HSV, Schalke, Nürnberg, Gladbach, Frankfurt could be in a similar position to Bayern, if they didn't regularly have incompetent clowns running things. gently caress am I ever envious of clubs with sensible management.

Where can I find a clip/gif of Ribery poking Mandzukic's black eye after his goal? Mandzu got all mad, that was funny as hell.

Torrannor posted:Upstanding criminal Uli Hoeneß, leading Bayern to the very top of the German league. And the morality is He's as greedy as the next guy when it comes to taxes, but you can't argue that he's always supported (ex-)Bayern players when they had problems. Gerd Müller and Deisler are just the two most prominent ones. As for Bayern being so far ahead financially, well, the club was managed really, really well - it's not like they had some Russian (or corporation) pump millions into the team while running a deficit. He hosed up with his tax evasion and he's rightly going to court for this. But it doesn't change that he managed the club and treated its players really well.

I like that Watzke is talking about "schottische Verhältnisse" when the SPL at least had the integrity to relegate Rangers into oblivion when they became insolvent, whereas his own chickenshit outfit got bailed out by the Bundesliga just like every other "Traditionsklub" in Germany when they were bankrupt. Too big to fail ITT.
