Eh, if it's true that his leadership style ultimately alienated the players, as it reportedly did at his previous clubs, I'd be careful about such proclamations.

Bummer. We'll be watching the downfall live and then getting absolutely plastered afterwards. At least we'll be in a "friendly" stadium, so there'll be fewer chants of "Zweite Liga, Nürnberg ist dabei!"

I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

That Nuremburg game was atrocious, had pretty good seats, but it was a proper bumming.

I did get a kit though. Gonna wear it up to Kaiserslautern next week.

I get a shirt from every city I visit, so it's nothing special. I'm not a supporter, but I do go to games when I can because it's 1) close by 2) cheap 3) an opportunity to hang out with nippy and get drunk/watch him get pissed at the refs. But to be fair, I do that too. I need to know what the most insulting thing to say in German to shout at the referees. I've been shouting Italian at them. And English just doesn't sound as brutal with insults.

I don't hate the club, but that was chanted on the train ride home. In all honesty, it sucks they're getting relegated. I'll probably still go to a few games while I can next season even if they are in 2. bundesliga. The Ultras are pretty hardcore with support, and any club that recognizes it's ultras/fans has my respect. The team acknowledged the fan sections twice (before and after the game). Something my team doesn't do at all, which makes me sad.

I do need to see Bayern play before I go back to the states. I'm not a true supporter of them, but I like them, even if Pep ruined what made me like watching Bayern play to begin with. drat shame Jupp retired.

Great Bayern match last night, I'm really digging their current form and hope they continue in this fashion! Personal highlight was when Müller got beat to the ball and threw a giant tantrum.

As long as Pep decides to let people shoot instead of cross. And stop passing so goddamn much it might do them some good

This.

But still, Bayerns performance was pathetic last night. Slow, predictable and toothless. Ribery was lethargic, Boateng shakey, the best RB played in midfield instead of dealing with Ronaldo etc.

Müller threw a tantrum, yes, but from his perspective it felt like a clear foul in the box and you could only see that it's not a penalty after the slowmo replay.

We're not out of it yet, but by the love of everything that is holy Pep, try something different and more direct please.

Robben was the most respectable player on the team last night, and that's saying something. Dude put out a poo poo ton more effort than the rest of the team.

He has been doing so for weeks. Peps match plan at the moment seems to be keeping all the possession at whatever cost and hoping that Robben scores the winner.

Robben's left foot is Gyarados, his right is Magikarp. He gets into trouble whenever the opponent remembers that, and it continues to amaze me that such few teams abuse this.

Magikarp is a useless fish Pokémon whose only move is "Splash", which does absolutely nothing. If you manage to get it to level 20, it evolves to Gyarados, a seadragon thing which used to be one of the strongest Pokémon there is.
