Its Dortmund, Leverkusen and Schalkes fault that they cant keep up.


Said by the Bayern Fanboy /facepalm.

Bayern buys players to hurt their opponents since 40 years. They killed Bremen and Leverkusen in the early 2000s (Basler, Klose, Ismael, Gomez, Elber, Lucio, Ze Roberto, Ballack) and now they did the same with Dortmund.

What Bayern does is just a disgrace for the Bundesliga. Not even Barca or Real are that ruthless and just buy players to weaken their opponents.


Fun fact: in the last 20 years Dortmund, Hamburg and Wolfsburg acually bought more players from bayern then they selled:

Dortmund
selled Mario Götze, Torsten Frings, Thomas Helmer, Robert Lewandowski
and
bought Mats Hummels, Christian Nerlinger (a former Bayern manger), Mats Hummels, Jürgen Wegmann, Michael Rummenigge (fun fact nr.2 he is the brother of the current Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge)

Hamburg
selled 4 players including Hasan Salihamidzic, god i still love this guy and Daniel van Buyten
and
bought a total of 7

Wolfsburg
selled 3 with only Mario Mandzukic as a "good"
and
bought 5 including CL winner Luiz Gustavo.


You can argue that Götze was something like a "weakening of opponents" ignoring the fact that he is just one of the biggest talants in europe, but with Lewandoski it is different:
He is not buyed out of his contract it ran out and he is a free agent in summer. It is not Bayern Munichs fault that Dortmund wasn´t able to extend his contract and if he is free, why not take him?

I cheated a bit but it is not an error, he was on a loan in 07/08, returned to Bayern and was selled to Dortmund again in 09/10.

What does it matter how many players they buy and sell if the ones they buy are always the best in their opponents selection and the ones they sell the worst or the ones benched in their own. Bayern is a buyers club they don't sell their best players.

It's not about quantity. Ajax have more players leave for smaller teams than bigger teams, but you can be sure that they miss Suarez and Vertonghen a hell of a lot more than they miss Lukoki and Goossens. Same with Feyenoord and PSV, big teams have lots of rejects.

Yet Watzke complains about City every chance he gets. It's a joke that old money can act like douches and yet new money gets criticized at every opportunity for doing the same. Of course I can understand Bayern doing what they are doing, but that doesn't mean that I like it and nor should the German FA. To me Financial Fair play would be great if it actually took everyone into account.

I'm sorry but that is wrong, Dortmund bought him before the loan end.

Feyeenord vs Ajax
ACMilan vs Juventus
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid

Today is a good day. If RM wins this game then you can say that they're the champions of la liga.

I think it's just fanboys of the current flavor of the month team that are butthurt about Bayern. No one gives a shit when Bayern sign Jan Kirchhoff or Sebastian Rode on a pre-contract, but when they sign Robert Lewandowski to one, Bayern are evil and destroying the Bundesliga. Just an observation.

No, Bayern has always been evil. It's just nowadays they really do it out of spite

Cause it's Bayern's fault that those other teams agree to sell their players.

It's Bayern's fault to give astronomical wages that other teams can't afford.

I just can't see this RM dropping points :>

Even though they lose against Barca in the future, they'll be still ahead thanks to average.

I would prefer that Draxler stays at Schalke, but the truth is he will very likely leave Schalke in the summer . If Bayern doesn't buy him, then another top club will.

Schalke's results in the last 2 years were bad and they show no signs of progression, despite having some top players in their roster. Draxler wants to move to a top club and make the next step in his career, it's understandable.

And to be honest I'd rather see Draxler at Bayern than see another star player leave the Bundesliga for a Premier League club, they have so much money they could bleed the Bundesliga dry of talent if it wasn't for Bayern.
