Rip Stevie G just rip, you will always be remembed by non-liverpool fans for your unfortunate slip after a very unfortunate choice of pep talk words.

Can't see City doing much, never do in January. Probably focussing mostly on getting Gerrard all signed up for next season via the MLS

If you're upset about Stevie G leaving for the MLS now, just think how you will feel when he pops up for Man City.

German U19 talent Joshua Kimmich, a small defensive midfielder from Stuttgart currently on loan at RB Leipzig, will be heading to Bayern this summer. For €7m.  (at least that's what is being floated around in the media)

Swansea have signed Exeter's Matt Grimes for £1.75m, which is a steal (and still 3.5x our previous transfer record)

the only way for them to compete realistically is to close the financial gap with Bayern but with the bundesligas ownership rules I don't see how that's going to happen

It's just that absolutely no club other than Bayern seems to be able to do that. Just look at Bremen, Dortmund and Suttgart - they both won the league in the last 10 years and now it looks like they could all get relegated.

Byolante posted:I wonder what the answer could be to why all those clubs are poo poo now and used to be good? Could it be housed in the link below? Alright, I'll bite. Let's look at all of the players transferred from other Bundesliga clubs to Bayern in, say, the last 3 years. Sinan Kurt: Bought from Gladbach's youth team for 1 million. Really too early to tell at the moment what his career is gonna look like, what would've happened had he stayed at Gladbach and how good he actually is. Promising, but still young and unexperienced. Robert Lewandowski: Came on a free from Dortmund since his contract expired. He would've left Dortmund anyway, so instead of going to Real or Barca or whatever, he chose Bayern. Had some trouble adjusting initially, as is to be expected, but overall had a good first half year. Dortmund knew he was leaving for well over a year and still hosed up with regards to getting a replacement for him, buying Adrian Ramos and Ciro Immobile, who are both utterly poo poo. By the way, just as an aside, Dortmund spent more on transfers than Bayern in the last 2 years. Sebastian Rode: Came on a free from Frankfurt, where his contract expired. The transfer was initially met with skepticism, but Rode played quite a bit and quite well especially in the last couple of weeks. Might even be on his way into the German National Team. Great transfer for both Bayern and Rode - the club got an excellent squad player and Rode basically reached the next level. I doubt he would've developed any further at mid-table club Frankfurt. Mario Götze: 37 million € from Dortmund. Sure, Dortmund were a direct competitor at the time, but like with Lewandowski, he would've left the club anyway since some other club would definitely have activated his buy-out clause if Bayern hadn't done it. Dortmund were fully aware that that clause existed when Götze signed that contract. They spent the 37€m on Mhkitaryan and Aubameyang, who are both a bit poo poo. Jan Kirchhoff: Free transfer from Mainz. That one didn't work out - he was fairly injury-prone and thus never really made it into the team, but even without the injuries, he simply wasn't good enough. Currently on loan at Schalke, but it's not really going well there either. Mario Mandzukic: 13 million from Wolfsburg. Had a fantastic two years at the club, an absolute steal for that price. Wolfsburg aren't exactly hurting for money, so I guess they weren't too broken up about it. Supposedly was a bit of a dressing room cancer and didn't really get along with Pep, so he was sold to Atletico Madrid last summer. Dante: 4,5 million from Gladbach. I believe this was a buy-out clause as well, so again, he probably would've been gone anyway. Nailed-on starter for two years, has fallen behind a bit this season. Tom Starke: Free transfer from Hoffenheim. Solid back-up keeper. Hoffenheim weren't really hurting for a good keeper after he left since they had Belgian international Koen Casteels. Claudio Pizarro: Free transfer from Bremen. They were already on the decline back then. Pizarro has been a solid back-up striker for Mandzukic and Lewandowski. So, there you have it. If you honestly think Bayern single-handedly destroyed the Bundesliga with transfers like these, then..I don't know what to tell you. Bayern are doing nothing special - they buy players from other clubs, and those players join them because of higher prestige, higher wages, more exposure, higher chance of success, whatever. This is literally what every single other club in the world is doing. (if you are interested in actually having a real discussion about this, post in the Bundesliga thread)

Big fish in a small pond at Sunderland before being ran out of town by a Goon stalker, rumour has it would have cost Villa too much money if he'd kept making appearances so rotted in the reserves along with Alan Hutton.
