Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[1kodumtek7]

Dortmund are a very similar team to Ajax actually. Both of these teams like to help promising players to reach their potential by giving them many opportunities. Erling Haaland was one of those players for Dortmund. He wasn't known much before he came to Dortmund. But after he started to show his big talent in a very impressive way, big teams were racing with each other to sign him and Manchester City have already done that. I expect Dortmund to maintain their main feature for many more years too.

bayer leverkusen has today completed its first major transfer for the new season. namely Adam Hlozek moves from sparta prague to the bundesliga and signs a 5-year contract in leverkusen

"Adam Hlozek is a player, who can be dangerous as a supporting striker, as central-forward but also on the wing," Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes said in a club statement. "His flexibility, power and effectiveness in the attack will make us more flexible."

I think that it is an amazing signing for Bayer Leverkusen. I see him as one of the wonderkids now and I have known him since I started to play Football Manager 2022.    He is only 19 years old and he has a big potential develop himself a lot in the future. His last season performance was quite good actually as he got 12 goals and 15 assists in total. Leverkusen had better consider themselves lucky for signing him for only 13 million euros. As you said, he can play in multiple positions which is another impressive feature of him.

It is really good to see that teams are going for younger players and they are trying to make them well and ready for future challenges and experiences. I believe that if the club are able to nurture him properly he will be really hard to deal with for the opponents. I also agree that he will add a lot more flexibility to the team. I hope that Bayern Leverkusen will be able to score more goals right now.

Have similar between  Ajax Amsterdam and Dortmund because both team try and give chance for young reach potential level and become super star and get big talent before have higher values and sell to other club, but Dortmund have little different with Ajax Amsterdam almost all their player selling to other league from Primer League, La Liga until Serie A. Dortmund only have destination selling player to Bayern Munich and mean actually helped Bayern get trophy easily with Dortmund working progress.

I think if Lewandowski doesn't leave Bayern Munich, the club won't have to spend money to sign the Liverpool striker. The arrival of Sadio Mane is expected to replace the position left by Lewandowski, it's a good move because Bayern Munich know they will be left by Lewandowski that's why they signed Sadio Mane. Yes, this is still a issue, we will really see a change in Bayern Munich's formation in the summer

Apparently, Barcelona cannot buy Lewandowski for financial reasons and there are no other strong offers for him on the market. Bayern are in talks to buy Mane but they are offering ridiculous money for him - 25 million (while they want to get 40+ for Lewandowski). Maybe this is a hint to Lewandowski that there are more interesting opportunities in the market than him? In any case, if Lewandowski doesn't find a club that pays the money Bayern want for him, Bayern's management will be stronger in this trade war and he will have to play for them on the old terms.

If Bayern Munich dosnt get Sadio Mane this year for good conditions they will never get him again.

I guess that they maybe will find some whole so that they can buy and get Lewandowski even they have financial restrictions.
If Lewandowski will be stay and they also get Mane that would be a very crazy good striker combo.
Lets see what will be the next news about this 2 players.

[fuguebtc]

Robert Lewandowski and Mane will be a great attacking force for Bayern Munich if Robert Lewandowski actually ends up staying in Munich.
Right now I feel like Robert Lewandowski is indecisive about what he wants to do and I honestly believe that it will be better for him if he stays. He doesn't have too much competition in Bayern Munich and even if he does not perform there are other players in the team who can win the match at any given time. With the addition of Mane, the team is only going to be stronger.

I don’t understand why you’ll feel that he shouldn’t switch, because he’s reaching that point where he can make one last switch and whichever league he decides to join I’m sure that he’ll be an instant success there. Lastly I can’t wait to see him perform well in another league, because I’m confident that he’ll perform to the same high standards that he has currently set while play for Bayern.

I know that it is really hard to doubt a player like him even though he is 33 years old. But, I think he will find it really hard to adapt to the new League and club that he is going to go to. But if he does not feel like he is happy with his present club I think he should make the move by all means. And he obviously does not face too much competition in the Bundesliga but he will face a little more competition in La Liga.

Robert Lewandowski and Mane will be a great attacking force for Bayern Munich if Robert Lewandowski actually ends up staying in Munich. 

Lewandowski himself reportedly wants to leave Munich. and I think it doesn't matter if Munich will get a replacement.
Lewandowski is a good player, he would do well in any team and any other European league competition. we know Lewandowski's quality is very good.
but if he doesn't want to leave Munich. it could be that these two players, Lewandowski and Mane will be a very dangerous pair. could be more dangerous and more productive than the duo Mane and Salah at Liverpool.

Well if he has become homesick then I think he really should move because there is no point in staying somewhere that he does not want to stay. I think if he chooses to go to Barcelona he might take a little time to get settled but once he does he will perform really well. But the competition is going to be a little higher.

Last what I heard was Barcelona offered €32 million for Lewandowski but Bayern Munich did not want to sell him for only €32 million. They wanted at least €50 million for this player. And I honestly think Barcelona is unable to afford that type of money.

So, I really don't think Barcelona will be able to buy this player. Unless Bayern Munich is actually willing to sell this player for less amount of money.

At some point last season Dortmund performance  was  not stable,  they were finding it very difficult to win some of their matches.  I just next season should be better for Dortmund to be in a good position on the stand. Dortmund is financially capable of having of getting talented players, Dortmund needs more of young players.

Last season was the same, sold Sancho for like 85 million, had a total of 110 million sold players and only got players worth 45 million. That is the problem with small clubs, money goes "somewhere". Look at the big clubs, they buy players and are losing money on transfers every year, and they get better, teams like Inter or Dortmund end up selling players for a lot of money, but do not use the same amount let alone more money.

If Dortmund spent 60 million dollars more at the start of the season, do you really think that they would lose championship this easily? I bet they would be doing better. Exact same will happen again, 80-90 at least earned, maybe more, then spend 40-50 and get worse as a team.

It is hard to blame Dortmund for their predicament. When a club needs to spend a lot to survive; then they had better develop new players for sale and recycle the process to ensure that they remain relevant. I think Dortmund got sancho for free, then haaland for around 15m, then made over 130m for both players. This summer, i think Dortmund has already signed about 5 players with Adeyemi being the first signing since Haaland was sold. For now, Dortmund needs to continue that process to remain relevant in the big scenes

Dortmund started well and doing great. They were wining matches but there problem was that they relied so much on one man to score the goals. The team was build against that young man and when he is injured, there will be no head way to proceed until he rexovers. So the departure if Haaland is a problem to them and also a goodnews. It is a problem because they will find it difficult to get a replacement and it is good because they will now play a team football instead of football dependent on one person.
For next season, Dortmund is not ready to contend, do Bayern will still be champion.

The club will suffer a loss if Lewandowski's negotiations do not come to fruition. We will see which club will make the highest bid for this player, and Munich will have to agree. Because some media have revealed that Lewandowski does not want to extend his contract with Bayern Munich, if Bayern Munich does not provide waivers, it is not impossible that Lewandowski will leave on a free transfer.

They will definitely find a replacement and it won't be too long.Dortmund is a club I've known for years,and they are very fund of selling their best players every season.So many good players today were at Bayern Munich,and the most amazing thing is how new one will emerge in less than no time.  So many players that were on this same Haaland level have been sold by  Dutmubd.players like Lewandowski,after him,Aubameyang emerged,after Aubameng,Haaland has emerged.Dembele of Barca,Mario Gotze and other high profile players are products of Durtmund,so definitely,we are expecting a new star now from there.

The Dortmund club find young talent, they can do this job very well. And they sell these talented players at a high price. But now I don't see any talented first-class talented players in the Dortmund squad. Maybe they are preparing funds to recruit new players this season. Otherwise, they will be without star players for the next few seasons.

I think Bayern will be quite happy with the option if Lewandowski plays for another year and then leaves for free. Judging by the fact that now there is no one who is willing to pay quite modest money for him (compared to other insane transfers), Bayern has the right assessment of the situation and Lewandowski overestimates himself. I will watch with great interest how Lewandowski gets out of the situation in which he drove himself.

-snip-

Barcelona can not afford to pay high salary for Lewandowski because their finance is not good.
They can not afford to give Lewandowski a tactic that he like and familiar with. They will give Lewandowski a striker position if he comes but tactic is different.

With Lewandowski, he receives lot of offers from big and rich clubs so Barcelona will not a first priority in Lewandowski's offer list.

Well, that is right Barcelona can not afford Lewandowski for now, but Bayern Munich has feared the unthinkable because Lewandowski is trying to force his way to exit the German club have to fear he will take legal action and tear his long time contract with Bayern Munich, and the club have feared that Lewandowski will be using a 2004 Webster ruling to escape his deal and that is the law will allow a 28 up player to terminate his long-term contract and leave for just £20.5m,

It really blew my mind from this news that Robert Lewandowski really badly wants out of the Bayern Munich and really wants to settle in Barcelona if they can not afford him then he can surely adjust for them, well this is likely from a news article that I have read, from the dailymail.co.uk this could be a chance for Barcelona to get their hands on Robert Lewandowski, Despite Thomas Muller having hopes that Lewandowski will stay,

It is hard to blame Dortmund for their predicament. When a club needs to spend a lot to survive; then they had better develop new players for sale and recycle the process to ensure that they remain relevant. I think Dortmund got sancho for free, then haaland for around 15m, then made over 130m for both players.

For now, Dortmund needs to continue that process to remain relevant in the big scenes

I really guess we can call what Dortmund is doing as buy and sell, they would surely buy a player for a small amount but will sell them at a high price, and yes Dortmund will continue this, as they can gain tons of money from doing it, I can not blame them for losing Erling Haaland because their real target is to really sell Haaland for a high price, and Dortmund is not actually aiming for the champion, they are heard to buy and sell but Championship is just a bonus for them,

Lewandowski is an extraordinary player. He is probably the best player in the Bundesliga this season. It is not his fault that he over-evaluates himself. If the clubs were not in financial crisis, many clubs would be interested in getting a player like Lewandowski on the team. I would be happy if Lewandowski joins any team in the Spanish league. However, it is not yet clear whether Lewandowski will leave Bayern Munich. Munich management will definitely want to keep Lewandowski in the team.

I think it is again going to be a repeat of history and Dortmund is going to bring forward another really good player. Well, I should say a really talented player who will become really good eventually and after that, he will be taken away from Dortmund with a huge amount of money. I actually kind of agree with you that we might be getting a big star from Dortmund again but I would be really happy if they somehow can keep him on the team.

Lewandowski is an extraordinary player. He is probably the best player in the Bundesliga this season.

Not only this season, until now Robert Lewandowski has become the 2nd top scorer in the Bundesliga after Muller. He is a class player who will make a difference to the team Lewandowski will play for. Even at the age of 33, Lewandownski still appears quite active with Bayern Munich, Lewandownski contributed 35 goals this season and managed to bring his team to stay in 1st position in the Bundesliga.

with Daniel Farke, borussia mönchengladbach has now found a new coach for the new season. D. Farke attracted attention at norwich city between 2017 and november 2021.
twice he was able to lead the club into the premier league. after leaving norwich, DF took over as coach at fk krasnodar in russia in mid-january. he signed a contract with the bundesliga club until 2025.

Indeed, this is also a pretty good option while honing a new striker (if there is a new one) then it's not wrong to save Lewa for another season in the hope of continuing to do something good, especially in the barn of goals that he always makes.
On the other hand, Lewandowski's role is still quite vital as a striker, so holding on for a year and releasing on a free transfer I think this is still a good thing indeed.
