Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Sirait]

Every club has their strategy of making money. If that club cannot win trophies to make money they can buy players at low price and sell them at higher price and make money. This was exactly the pattern that the former Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger was using to make money for Arsenal. Dortmund is presently using that method to also make money because they produced one of the best young footballers in the world and they sell them without replacement.
I also think Ajax is known for doing something. I don't know if they used to have replacement for their own but as for Dortmund I know they don't buy high-profile players but they produce high-profile players

If Dortmund thinks this is the best way for them to make money, then they need to train more players to be strong to keep some in the club that will help the club win trophies , then sell the remaining players to make money than to sell most of their important players.

if we look at the history of player sales carried out by Drotmund then we will see how dortmund make money and that's all by selling players, so far dortmund has always been profitable when doing that, they rarely lose, one of their big sales is when selling haaland to man city, it's a dortmund custom and we won't see them stop doing it.

Actually they really have to find a replacement for Manuel Neuer, I mean Neuer will definitely be replaced, but with what he is experiencing now, Bayern Munich has to look for it faster than it should. There are several names that are being targeted by Bayern Munich, and those names are goalkeepers who performed well during the Qatar World Cup. Croatia goalkeeper, Morocco goalkeeper is one of the many names that are now their target players. I'm sure they will get the goalkeeper they are hoping for in the transfer window.

After Sadio Mané injury another big setback for the Bayern Munich as they lost heir first priority goalkeeper with mostly he will join again after in next season and Bayern Munich is having their top rank back after tough fight, so things are looking not easy for them with now they are going to face PSG in knock out round as well hopefully they will be able to have suitable replacement in January transfer window which will help them for having better performance.

Now they have few good options like Moroccan goalkeeper and few others like Croatia, hopefully Bayern Munich management will be able to have quick approach for them and bring quality replacement because now things are not easy, and they have to give their best for this spot as well.

Bayern Munich now have a few lackings in their squad, especially at the goalkeeper and striker positions. Manuel Neuer has been aging and his form is dipping it is quite clear on his games, so he needs a replacement as soon as possible.

Some goalkeepers from the World Cup, such as Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livaković and Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, are going to amaze all football fans during this tournament. And I am pretty sure that Bayern Munich are going to have their eyes on those keepers. The transfer window is about two weeks away from us and I am excited to see who Bayern Munich recruit.

[TheGreatPython]

As for the attractiveness of German clubs for players, there is an interesting situation here - Bayern is 100% guaranteed to participate in the Champions League and Dortmund is probably 90% guaranteed. All other clubs are less reliable options, but when compared with the Premier League, now the situation there is almost the same - there is a clear favorite (City) and the rest of the clubs are much less reliable options due to increased competition.

In Bundesliga, we have just two teams dominance for long time so just because of this mostly teams are not reliable for having positive results, and we have different teams at the 3rd and 4th spots but now in this season we have big change with Dortmund is also struggling even now after this break we can expect better performance from them, but now competition is tough with Frankfurt and Freiburg both are doing good job and have fair chance for staying at the top behind Bayern Munich with Leipzig and Dortmund will surely fight for the remaining spot with Leverkusen which was in relegation zone now have change of coach which brining positive change, and they also can go at the top ranks even this is not easy, but things can take change.

[Sirait]

Bayern Munich now has a feeling of kings in their squad, especially at the goalkeeper and striker positions. Manuel Neuer has been aging and his form is dipping it is quite clear on his games, so he needs a replacement as soon as possible.

Some goalkeepers from the World Cup, such as Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livaković and Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, are going to amaze all football fans during this tournament. And I am pretty sure that Bayern Munich are going to have their eyes on those keepers. The transfer window is about two weeks away from us and I am excited to see who Bayern Munich recruit.

bayern is really hunting for goalkeepers, there are many names that enter their radar, among them are alexander nubel and Yassine Bounou. with Bayern's finances being very healthy until now, it is certain that between the two goalkeepers Bayern will be successful in buying, neuer is old and he deserves to be replaced with a younger goalkeeper.

[dezoel]

Dortmund's goal was never to become champions of the Bundesliga. They just want to do business and make a lot of money by selling players. If Dortmund's goal was to win the title, they wouldn't have sold Haaland. They would keep Haaland in the team and try to strengthen their squad. But they don't do it. The main player of their squad this season is Sébastien Haller. I think the Dortmund management will make a lot of money by selling Sébastien Haller within the next two seasons.

Agreed about this because if we check their history of last decade they have done too many things which bring good profit instead of having trophies which are also good, but everyone is going with his own mindset and Borussia Dortmund management is having this mindset for long time with a very long list of quality players those were sold just for money on crucial points because if they go for the title then surely this was possible, but they never try for this and have good profit from their strategy.

Now in this season they are having terrible time because after selling Haaland they have another good player but due to injury he is away from game for long period now things looking good for Bellingham as Liverpool and Real Madrid both are looking for this new wonder kid and this could be another big opportunity for the Borussia Dortmund having big profit.

[YuginKadoya]

Dortmund is not playing well this season. So, I really do not know if they will be able to get themselves into the top four positions or not.
But Dortmund should be able to get ahead of Union Berlin. Because Union Berlin is also not playing well. They could not continue the way they started the season. So, I think they will go further down on the table.

I am not sure about Dortmund. It is really hard to see if they will actually be able to improve or not because they are going through some big difficulties right now. Frankfurt is actually showing good performance. And their performance is actually more stable compared to Dortmund. So, I think Frankfurt will be able to hold onto the position that they are in right now.

As I have said Dortmund has many issues with injuries and suspension and just like you I don't really don't see them going up the standings for now, but if this long break could do them good and replenish those injured players then I think they will likely get a chance or that open trade window can get them some players that can help them with this then it will be a good chance aswell because right now they can not do a thing with those injuries then I am not seeing an inch move up for Dortmund this season,

I think that in this case an injury is not something that is difficult for Bayern to overcome, especially now that they are also preparing to look for options when Neuer is confirmed to be out for the next 3 months.
The problem in the Bundesliga actually lies not in injuries or anything, but in fact it is the differences in the strength of the clubs that have an effect.
Currently Bayern is always on top and that is quite natural because they are at a different level so it is very difficult for other clubs to balance their dominance so inevitably the hegemony will continue.

Resources were the key to victory for Bayern Munich n taking great players for their team it is not a problem for them to get an instant replacement for Robert Lewandowski but in this case, they have taken a variety of players to coup up from that loss, and so now that Manuel Neuer is in the state of not quickly coming back it does force Bayern Munich to use their trumpet card and that is playing their financial capabilities to get goalkeeper as a replacement for Neuer,

The truth is that I do not see any team being able to compete successfully against Bayern Munich even one or two years from now. The reason for this is that Bayern Munich has consistently won the Bundesliga title for the past ten years. As a result of that alone, they have been able to make a huge amount of money.

It is pertinent to note that even if Bayern Munich starts performing badly, they can always buy players that they want and improve their performance as soon as possible. The team is currently experiencing some problems with injuries to some of the players in the squad, which I know is a concern.

But I think it is not going to be a big problem for them to just buy some players and replace the old injured ones. As far as I know, money is not a problem for them.

Duke Khan

Indeed! injuries were not really a problem if you can buy players to replace them, but if they can also make players or train players to be the best they could be or release their potential this is what they did to Lewandowski they molded him as the best scorer he can become but upon leaving Bayern Munich and joining Barcelona what happen to Lewandowski now, he wasn't able to win against Bayern Munich but he is doing well in La Liga and giving Barcelona the 1st position on the standing I think he surely just needs time and chemistry with the team to perform this well, and right now Robert Lewandowski has 13 goals he is truly 1 goal machine that Bayern Munich ever created,

[darewaller]

I think Frankfurt should really try their damndest to get as close as Bayern Munich in the league table. I think in order to focus on their defense they can try to bring in a central defensive midfielder and another center back if possible. I have to say that they have a really high chance of finishing the league in the top four.

No doubt about Frankfurt aggression and strategy in this season they are doing amazing job, and now they have clear chance for staying at the top ranks with after break they are going to face Schalke which is currently worst team in Bundesliga and Leipzig is going to face Bayern Munich and Freiburg is also had tough challenge against Wolfsburg which is also improving performance and have good results before break, so they can take good advantage ang touch second spot which will give them good confidence for challenging top rank Bayern Munich which is also having few troubles but for this all we have to wait for one more month as now we have next match on 20th January 2023, but one thing is sure Frankfurt is the biggest challenge for the Bayern Munich after this break.

[Velvet78]

Despite the recent injuries like Mane and Neuer, I don't doubt Bayern Munich's performance in the Bundesliga even a bit. Because they still have a far stronger squad than all of the rest of the teams now. They can easily maintain this great form by getting comfortable wins. There are many players who can score goals as they aren't only dependent on Mane.

It might just be a bit of a problem in the Champions League but we will see. Bayern Munich can still find a way to prevent this from becoming a big issue actually. They are a very disciplined team.

[Lafu]

Bayern need to make some changes quickly, I have seen that Muller needs more help, he not only needs a Capista center like Konrad, it would be great if he could come in, but I think he needs a good striker, from what I have seen in the World Cup there is little chance of finding outstanding players, most of them already have their teams pre-established, the Brazilians are very good, I think that one that they could like very much would be Gabriel Jesus in case they wanted to release him, and his style would take it very well fine with Muller, so they need someone quickly who can help for UCL, because they don't have it that easy.

For sure Bayern Munich has to make something quickly after there are a lot of injured players now specialy the Goalkeeper ,
and as you have written some help for Müller would be also good , but there are so many players that can take that part already from Munich.

About the rumors for Youssoufa Moukoko maybe will be going to Newcastle , they are only interested .
And i think that Moukoko will have better deals from other Clubs , but i hope that he will be stay in Dortmund.

And I am pretty sure that Bayern Munich are going to have their eyes on those keepers. The transfer window is about two weeks away from us and I am excited to see who Bayern Munich recruit.

Morocco goalkeeper won't be bad for Bayern market in the transfer market. I saw numbers of goals the goalkeeper saved all through the world cup games.
The goalkeeper is just too good , and he is among the goal keeper  other teams will be targeting to get.

[Raflesia]

But this is something different, Bayern Munich have completely lost Manuel Neuer and are out injured, forcing them to use their new keeper. They are serious about bringing in goalkeepers, it can be seen that the names they have chosen are the best goalkeepers from the countries participating in the World Cup. This gives a signal that what they are looking for right now is a goalkeeper who is ready to become the main goalkeeper in the team to replace Manuel Neuer who has to be sidelined due to an injury he has experienced.

Currently Livakovic's name is still the first name that is in their target, regardless of anything it is possible this can happen especially Livakovic can still leave in January later from Zagreb.

But there are still several other possibilities because they still have enough time to reconsider about this. Even though in this case I still feel Livakovic is still worthy of them even though many doubt this player.

Bayern Munich can still do without Neuer in the competition. They don't depend on him, although he is a great goalkeeper. Bayern's defense also needs to get its affairs in order, which would also make a difference for a goalkeeper. If Neuer will be out of circulation for a while, they will still have to attract another goalkeeper. Continuing to play with your reserve keeper cannot be the solution or intention. Bayern Munich is a very rich and glorious club, so in principle they should be able to arrange someone fairly easily in the short term. They still have some time before the competition starts. Did Neuer suffer this injury at the World Cup with Germany?

I don't think so, when Livakovic does exist later, if he does move, it is likely that Ulreich will have to work even more if he really wants this position, especially with Livakovic's condition, even though it is a little forced because of the world cup hype, he can still be a very good option.
On the other hand, I don't see any excessive deficiencies in the defense, even if they don't add now, it won't be too much of a problem.

[qory]

Bayer Leverkusen is also playing a very unfortunate competition at the moment. Too bad they got off to such a bad start. This team can do much better than they have shown now. The difference between the teams from Berlin (Union and Hertha) is also significant this season. It is also striking that only 1 team from Munich is active in the highest division of this division, 1860 Munich no longer plays the Bundesliga. the big absentee will surely be Schalke 04. They are stiff at the bottom and there seems to be little room for improvement now.

[bekti3]

Dortmund haven't had a great start to the season that's true but I think we'll see a stronger consequence of them for the rest of the season. Dortmund had a trend in previous seasons of always finishing in 4th place and it will happen again this season. Dortmund temporary ranking in the standings table is ranked 6th and the difference in points from the top 4 is only 2 points so one game in the future will be able to change Dortmund position in the standings table. dortmund have swallowed 6 defeats in the 15 matches they have played so this is a bad record for them because in 15 matches they have swallowed 6 defeats.

There are a number of reasons why I highly doubt this is the case because Dortmund has not shown anything so far that would give us any reason to believe that they won't cause any problems or have any problems, and that they will start improving soon. They don't even have a very competent squad right now. Not enough attacking options as well. I don't see any player in the Dortmund squad who can actually be a prolific goal-scorer for them.

I think they have scored enough goals this season. But the problem is they have not defended well. In total, they scored 25 goals and conceded 21 goals. That is just not good enough for them. Especially if they want to compete at the top of the Bundesliga table. They will have to perform well in all aspects of football otherwise they are not going to be able to compete at the top level of the Bundesliga.

They still hope that Haller's recovery will actually be a little difficult because when he recovers, he needs some other preparations, especially since he has to get used to being on the field again and has to hone his instincts as a striker later.
Dortmund's squad is not very good right now, the defense has lots of gaps, the attack line is not very good because there are no pure strikers there so this is clearly difficult for them.

[bct_ail]

The World Cup is over and all the players can finally spend some time with their families. Most of the clubs start their preparation in the first week of January. After that there is no much time left, because the first match is already at 20. January. It starts with the match between Leipzig and Bayern. Perhaps there will be new players in the teams as the transfer window will close at 30 January.

[Ratash]

Bayern team will face next leipzig a difficult game right after the break, it will be in leipzig stadium against a team in an excelent shape, with 4 consecutive wins, a lot of bayern players play in the national team i wonder how their moral will be before such an important game.

[EdenHazard]

The rumor has it , alexander nubel return from as monaco loan back to bayern but it seems there is a problem in the proccess as nubel feel inconvinced by the goalkeeping coach there at bayern , he could simply take this chance to become the number 1 at bayern.

It seems nubel has too much in consideration , too bad ;(

[Tumanggor]

Some goalkeepers from the World Cup, such as Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livaković and Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, are going to amaze all football fans during this tournament.

I'm not sure Livakovic will be interested in Bayern even though the news keeps blowing, I just think that Bono is the best candidate for Bayern (no debate)

even though the news about bono is only an alternative target for the goalie, but in the world cup he has proven himself that he is a great goalkeeper, bayern continues to approach bono,  hope they will be successful in getting bono

[TopT3ns]

Bayern Munich should have won easily because so far the team from Leipzig is very different from Bayern Munich which is very terrible, Bayern Munich has a very tough task because they must maintain their position at the top of the standings to win in the Bundesliga this season.

And as always, there is a lot of controversy regarding Leo Messi and CR7

Gary Lineker hits back at Piers Morgan as Lionel Messi-Cristiano Ronaldo debate escalates

https://i.imgur.com/QyzymwM.png

Gary Lineker has poked fun at Piers Morgan as their social media debate regarding Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo continued.

The BBC anchor is a firm believer in Messi being the greatest of all time, whilst Morgan has been vocal in his belief that Ronaldo ranks above them all. Saturday night though belonged to the Argentine as he and his country marched on into the last eight of the World Cup.

Messi, who enjoyed a record breaking evening on his 1000th career appearance, scored the opener for the South Americans in what was a lacklustre first-half against Australia. The PSG star's performance earned huge plaudits in the BBC studio - with Rio Ferdinand in particular waxing lyrical about the forward.

I don't like fanboy battles, but the very existence of the Ronaldo-Messi dispute always surprises me. Messi is not known to anyone outside of Barcelona (without Xavi and Iniesta, to put it bluntly) while Ronaldo has succeeded everywhere. I don’t know the history (the real story with the naughty Blatter and other actors) of this phenomenon, but Messi’s PR has been at a deafening level since his very appearance in football, and many succumbed to it.

You are completely right, I think that Messi seriously needs the players of a team to play for him as Inisesta, Xavi, Dani Alves did at Barcelona as he was before, the formation of CR7 has been different, he has been a player who he has been forged not only because of his talent, it is above all from being a soccer player an athlete, that is why he has always shown to have a very great performance, however some are criticizing him a lot because he no longer performs like before, but no I think it is his physique that is failing, nor is his age, I think that for now he has many things to heal in terms of his personal problems, but for me CR7 is much superior to Messi, in part Messi is always helped even on the pitch, not CR7.

Some goalkeepers from the World Cup, such as Croatian goalkeeper Dominik Livaković and Moroccan goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, are going to amaze all football fans during this tournament. And I am pretty sure that Bayern Munich are going to have their eyes on those keepers. The transfer window is about two weeks away from us and I am excited to see who Bayern Munich recruit.

Yes, I also agree, the goalkeeper from Morocco had a great performance and he deserves to be able to gap for a team like Bayern, the truth would be a great contribution, I think that if Bayern gets a goalkeeper like this they will have many options to continue advancing in any competition you can.

Bayern is a team that needs a lot of reinforcements, I think that in my opinion it needs more as forwards, and obviously it could have a better goalkeeper who is more experienced, Marruesos is a very good option, I would be inclined first to look for a lot more forwards, who are and are at a very high level.

The World Cup is over, and in about 1 month we'll see more matches in Europe's top leagues, one of which is the Bundesliga. Based on the picture above, we can see that currently the Bundesliga table is led by Bayern Munich with 34 points, followed by SC Freiburg with 30 points, and then in third place we also have RB Leipzig with 28 points at their disposal at the moment.

How do you think the Bundesliga will go in the next half of the season? Will the dominance of Bayern Munich continue? or will RB Leipzig or SC Freiburg be able to seize dominance this season? Give me your feedback.
