Financially it is not though....Dortmund are no where near the financial power of Bayern, no one in the Bundesliga are even close to them. They always have the financial muscle to say i want this player, here is a stupid amount of €s accept it...and they do xD

I don't see how it is "that bad" when it has happened in every other country for years, including Germany xD

This makes the league fucking boring as hell! They just buy all players off contenders /END
Its fucking ridiculous, they not even need JUDAS.
And this does not happen in England. Its not like Chelsea got Rooney, Vidic and Nani from ManU each of the last years.

The problem was that JUDAS does not wanted to renew his contract without a buy-out clause... without it BVB would not had to sell the JUDAS.

Because it can't happen in England. Man Utd - Chelsea - Man City - Arsenal all have financial muscle to pull in 1-2 good players and give them stupid wages. Rooney and RVP are man utd's 200k a week players. Chelsea have Torres Hazard on 150k. Man City have Tevez and Aguero on 200k. Thats how they keep it all even in the prem. But teams like Everton can't compete with that, and will lose Fellainai there only world class player this summer too.

It doesn't become boring when it's even. Bayern just dominate due to no one else having the income that they do...

You were hiding under a rock in the last 2 years? You don't need big money to have a good team, like Dortmund showed! But even if you develop your own players, terrible clubs like Bayern come and just steal them.

Lol terrible clubs >.<
God dammit.
So because Bayern have the 4th best revenue in the world, they want to spend it to buy the good players...that is bad? I only see it unfair if they do it because they break rules. But they arent, they are doing it right, properly and are benefiting from it! What do you want to happen, that all grass route academy players trained by clubs cannot leave to a rich team for more $$s? :S

The transfer itself is debatable enough but the timing of the announcement of the transfer is terrible. It looks like someone from Bayern made it public to distract from the Hoeneß' scandal without any regards to Dortmund's big match tomorrow.

Sounds like you talking about ManU buying a player off Cardiff City or so. Dortmund is a Champions League Winner and German Champion the last 2 years. :o

Lol yes, it is no different than Arsenal selling RVP to Man Utd....Or Chelsea buying Veron (way back when) or Chelsea stealing away Mikel from Man Utd. Or Man City stealing Robinho and Aguero from Chelsea by offering them £200,000 a week. No different sir

Seriously Savage, you registered just today and all you did was spewing hatred for Bayern because they bought Götze. Just stop it. We can see that you're upset, but please go ahead and vent your anger somewhere else, or at least try to be somewhat objective.

I don't think the problem here is Bayern being a big bad club, of course they want the best German players playing for their team. Its that Götze isn't satisfied with being 'just' a Dortmund legend, he wants to be a Bayern Munich legend... and he is willing to kick his old club in the balls/twist their arm to get it done.

These things happen when players ego's get out of hand. Always sad when you see it happen

Yes, except in the case of Robinho, City actually did Chelsea a favour.

i agree but you also have to see it from another perspective.
he gets the chance to play for the club with the brightest looking future for upcoming years and guardiola wants him, which young player would really refuse this?

i don't like his decision but i respect it because i know barely anyone, if any, would've made a different decision, including me.

Bayern is clear favorite here, but of course its football and Barcelona, so anything can happen.
My bet is draw, 2-2.

Imo Bayern itself is the favorite, BUT if Messi is at his top form (difficult coming from an injury), then Barca will take it.

Yes the timing is VERY suspiciuos. Cant be coincidence.
I read that Klopp himself said that he believes it was not Bayern, as it would not be in their interest. Neither it was Götze or his manager. Klopp believes it was a third party.
Speculation is that it came from Madrid/Mourinho. Arsenal knew about it because Götze told them when he refused their offer. From there it might have somehow been spread further.
Off-season = best season

Seriously, Barca has to be the favorite here. So much expereince, so much confidence after having won so many titles. Maybe 60/40 in their favor.
