Looks like Thomas Tuchel is going to leave Mainz...

What a pity he is probably top3 coach in the bundesliga...

Btw Bayern barely edged out a 1-0 vs a team which had literally nothing to play for.
Stuttgart didnt care one bit if they lose/draw/win today, they also played away. Pepe really killed Bayern for this season.

Leverkusen played so bad in the second half of the season that I felt they deserve to lose CL but I also think Wolfsburg needs another year to be CL worthy. But as I know Bundesliga teams they will underachive badly next season and this season will be worth nothing.

Bayern also had nothing to play for. These games are always lame and should be considered friendlies.

Anyway, was hoping HSV would get relegated. Maybe in the play-offs. Then there might be a slight chance van der Vaart comes back to Ajax <3

Why would you want a player as useless as vdV back?

That said vdV will leave Stellingen anyway because they are in financial troubles so they won't be able to afford him anymore. Well, not that they were able to this season(or even wanted him in the first place)

Oh man, rafael is one of my favorite players.
Big reason for this is that I had the feeling that I'm watching my child growing up while watching his career, because I have found him as a 16yo talent in fm.
Both him and robben, but then I watched robben irl and boy was he boring.
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

van der Vaart is such a douchebag isnt he? If he leaves Hamburg then he likely to come either Fenerbahce or Besiktas.



He thinks that Ibra did this on purpose. He talked to media about this all the time. If you want i can copy you whole story from Ibra's bio. I think Ibra's Ajax story on Jag ar Zlatan is a must read for all Ajax fans

It wasnt on "purpose". If you watch carefully then you can see that Ibra loses his balance.

Even thought it wasnt on purpose, van der Vaart talked to media like Ibra did this on purpose. According to Ibra, Ajax divided into two because vdV. Not the mention that vdV was the captain of Ajax that time.

I think they will outhouse the team and Kühne will pay whatever van der Vaart demands anyway.

It definitely was on purpose. Don't talk about stuff you don't understand just because you've got a huge boner for Ibra. And van der Vaart is one of the nicest football players you'll ever see on and off the pitch. It was viewed as a disgrace by Ibrahimovic back then. They had internal issues because basically Ibra was acting like a douche in the team (acting like a prima donna, basically the same as now but back then he didn't have the skill or the reputation or the career to back it up) and then he severely injured him in a friendly international match. Never really apologized for it either iirc.

Anyway, he still has insane qualities, but they are wasted at a team as disorganized as HSV. When he joined Tottenham a couple years ago, he was easily among the best players there and they still had Modric and Bale. As for the general opinion in Germany, it's fueled by your tabloids like Bild and shit that he sucks right now and is useless, but that's just because he should be playing for a team that have qualities outside fight and physical prowess. He doesn't deserve the abuse by so-called experts in Germany.

Cheating on your wife with another player's exwife is one of the nicest footballers...?

What does that have anything to do with him being nice or not.
No-one knows the circumstances about that except the people involved. If you want to believe what tabloids write, go ahead. I've also read that it was his wife cheating on him.

Whole story from Ibra's mouth:

+ Show Spoiler +
Around this time with played a friendly with Sweden against Holland in Stockholm. Just a friendly, but none of us had forgotten the loss in the Euros and of course we wanted to show that we could beat Holland. The whole team was full of revenge, and it was an offensive, quite aggressive game, and already early in the game I got the ball just outside the box. Immediately four dutch players were all over me. One of them was Rafael van der Vaart, and they were all pulling me. It was a tough situation, but I pushed my way through it and got the ball to Mattias Jonson who was all clear. He scored 1-0, and afterwards van der Vaart was lying down and had pains. He was carried out on a stretcher with an injury to a ligament in his ankle, he wasn't too badly injured. But maybe he would miss a game or two, and in the newspapers he said that I had injured him deliberately. I jumped. What kind of shit was that? It wasn't even a foul, and he's talking about deliberately. And that guy was my captain!

I called him: "Listen, I'm sorry, I'm sad about your injury, and I apologize, I didn't do it on purpose, do you hear me?" And I said the same thing to the press. I said it a hundred times. But van der Vaart continued talking, and I just couldn't understand it. Why the fuck would he talk shit about his own teammate? It was insane. Or was it really?

I started thinking, because don't forget, it was August and the transfer window was open. Maybe he wanted to fight his way out of the club? Or fight ME out of the club for that matter? It wasn't the first time tricks like that were used, and the guy got media down there with him too. He was the dutch guy. He was the darling of the gossip pages, and I was the bad boy and all that, the foreigner. "Are you serious?", I said when I met him at practice. And apparently he was.
"Okay, okay", I said. "Then let me tell you one last time. It was not on purpose. Do you hear me?"
"I hear you!"
Still he wouldn't back an inch, and the atmosphere in the club became more and more intense. The whole team was divided in two. The dutch were on Rafael's side, and the foreigners on mine. Eventually Koeman called for a meeting, and by that time the whole thing was driving me insane. What the fuck? Accuse me of shit like that? I was boiling inside and up there in the lunch room on the third floor we all sat down in a circle, and I could feel it in the air immediately. It was serious. The management had decided we had to reconcile. We were key players and we had to be friends. But there weren't exactly any openings. Rafael went on harder than ever.
"Zlatan did it on purpose", he said and my eyes turned black.
What the fuck, why couldn't he just give up?
"I didn't hurt you on purpose, and you know that, and if you accuse me of that one more time I will break both your legs. And this time it will be on purpose", I said, and of course, everyone on van der Vaart's side started: "You see, you see, he's aggressive. He's crazy", and Koeman tried to calm things down:
"We don't have to go that far, we will work this out."

But to tell the truth, it didn't feel likely, and then we were called up to Louis van Gaal, the director. He and I had some fights before, and it didn't feel like the best thing to go there together with van der Vaart. It wasn't exactly like I was surrounded by friends, and van Gaal started his power talk immediately:
"I am the director here", he said.
Like, thanks for the info!
"And I'm telling you", he continued. "Bury the hatchet. When Rafael is well again, you are playing together!"
"Definitely not", I said. "As long as he's on the field, I'm not playing."
"What are you saying?", van Gaal replied. "He is my captain, you will play with him! You do it for the club."
"Your captain?" I said. "What kind of bullshit is that? Rafael goes to the media and says I injured him on purpose. What kind of captain is that? One who attacks his own teammates? I'm not playing with him, not a chance. Never. You can say whatever you want."
And then I left. It was a risky gamble. But of course, I was empowered by knowing I had things going with Juventus.


Practicing golf swing on Ibrahimovic's face? yeah... He is definitely one of the nicest footballer off the pitch... No doubt most of dutch people hate Ibra because vdV made him look like a murderer.

Don't understand me wrongly. I love VdV, I love most Dutch players (except during WC 2010) and I am sure BOTH of them cheated. Neither Sylvie nor Raffael don't strike me as honest people...
I just wanted to say that cheating, regardless of the circumstances, is not a nice thing. And it makes me sad that a footballer who does that still could be considered as one of the nice footballers around. :/
