This Stindl goal was actually so damn good. People would go crazy if this was done by Neymar or similar. Not the best camera angle though. | ||

Yet other Belgians were always more hyped than him. I haven't been following the Belgian National Team that much so i can't comment but he's not always been this good at City. He was pretty much on and off in his first couple of seasons. I'd say he started showing his true marksmanship ability last season. | ||

What an obsession with La liga. You live in the past, the level has increased a lot in the other teams since the new tv rights distribution 3 or 4 years ago. For example, Real Madrid loosed against Betis and they draw against both Valencia and Levante. In addition to that they won 2-1 to both Alavés and Getafe in even matches with many problems for them. Talking about La liga, I'm happy that both Valencia and Betis are playing awesome and getting great results, they are two classics of the league. Last night match between them (3-6) was awesome when the match was 3-4 xDD | ||

Going to be watching Madrid vs Spurs here, could be a battle for top spot unless Madrid win both these games (this is the double header matchday) then Spurs vs Dortmund in Germany will be a winner takes all clash. | ||

His claim is rubbish, you are right, De Bruyne only really hit the best Belgian player conversation sometime last year. Before that he wasnt as polished or consistent as he is now. Hazard was a far better player. The potential was ofcourse talked about, but the lack of hype was expected, his style of play without end product doesnt really create any hype. I havent been following the Belgian national team either, but if he had done something reallyyyyy worth noting we wouldve heard about it. He didnt. Besides, its what 10-20 games over 2 years including the Euro? He didnt do much there either. | ||

I expect Spurs to take a point from RM in 2 games, and that would be game over for BVB without even needing the last 2 match days. BVB is simply too one-dimensional at this point. Bosz has one tactic and one tactic only, and it gets brutally exposed against better teams. He's also horrible at picking the correct team sheet. BVB is definitely one of the most dangerous clubs in Europe when fully healthy, but they don't have the depth that other clubs do, and even when healthy, I don't trust Bosz to pick the correct lineup to compete. | ||

If you meant the injuries, at least Pizcek (or whatever the spelling is), Schurrle and Schmelzer are out. Rode and Durm are listed as injuries too. Götze seems to be getting better again, but I'm not sure if he's 100% either. | ||

Of course it's unlikely (Silver gives Dortmund a 78% chance at third place), but I don't think it's time to surrender yet either. | ||

(like, he's only giving them a 16% shot, but number #2 on the list, Arsenal, have 6%). But from my pov, they really can't be ruled out after 2 games.. They're prolly beating apoel twice. They have a home game vs tottenham. Tottenham has 2 games left vs real, that might easily be two losses.. Of course it's unlikely (Silver gives Dortmund a 78% chance at third place), but I don't think it's time to surrender yet either. Yeah, absolutely. In my books the group has 3 teams that can easily beat each other in a single game on a good day. All it takes is 2 good performances by Dortmund, which they're well capable. If they do drop out to Europa League, it probably isn't their main focus by a long shot. For the first time in years Bayern seems shaky on Bundesliga and I'm fairly sure Dortmund is more interested in that title than Europa League. | ||
