I wouldn’t mind seeing Bayern do it because I’m sick to death of ‘hur hur Harry Kane hasn’t won a trophy’ in any comment thread, plus of course the Tommy Tuchs redemption arc.

Dortmund are the only team I feel it’s unlikely that they can actually win left, but if they did that would be great

hurr Harry Kane no trophies

In all seriousness, it is quite hilarious how he managed to not win the Bundesliga in his first season with Bayern

Villa through, some hope for England

Also West Ham first half doing so well vs Leverkusen and well on top, 1-0 up and could been more! Lets go West Spam!!

West Ham were so much better than Leverkusen for 60 minutes, Alonso up to that point makes 4 changes and they just outlast West Ham as there squad is barebones so no changes and they just run out of energy and Leverkusen got back on the ball, then lucky deflection goal to save there undefeated streak. Shame West Ham at least deserved to take there undefeated streak.

First half West Ham was really good. Should have made that 2:0. Leverkusen still drunk from celebrating their league title I guess. Second half Leverkusen subbed in some of their better players and were slowly taking over the game. The 1:1 was the logical outcome of that.
First half shots was like 5:1 West Ham, Second half was 6:1 Leverkusen

Still undefeated! Better than ANY Europe top team ever was!

Dibu Martinez is France's daddy right now. Also christ his ability to stop penalties is just unbelievable.

Yeah was crazy for sure, sad for West Ham as they just dont have the squad to compete with Leverkusen which is madness as they have so much more money (they have lots of injuries)

Leverkusen also got some players last summer that whole of Europe completely missed: Grimaldo, Xhaka, Hofmann

Same with Liverpool and their 3 midfielders: how can whole of Europe miss these players?

Well Xahahahaha is not good, he is just riding a wave, there is no way that guy is considered good from his time at Arsenal.

Grimaldo is probably the only one people probably doubted too much and Leverkusen got a great player there.

The rest is not, everyone knew about Macalister and he chose Liverpool, Szlobalasi meh, first season and will improve but nothing special this season at all. Endo, they were forced to buy him and he has hardly set the world alight but for his age you have to say fair play but he is nothing special outside of that.

Yes grimaldo was a liability on the defensive side of things. That is the only reason a portuguese team was able to buy him in the first place and then keep him for that long.
