Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[CryptoBuds]

I think their joy is not too great for Bayern Munich, as the Bundesliga championship has now become a classic. They predict that they will be champions as the new league season starts. The German league needs a little more competition, I agree, but other teams, including Borussia Dortmund, are not taking steps in this direction. If they don't want to be champions, Bayern will easily win. Even if the league is not difficult, success may be less in Europe.

I don't see any interest in becoming champions in teams like Dortmund and Leipzig in the Bundesliga. Dortmund's main business is to produce talented players and sell them at high prices to other clubs, including Bayern Munich. If the management of Leipzig and Dortmund had tried to strengthen their team by investing some money, the rule of Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga would have been somewhat lost.

Actually Dortmund couldn't defeat Bayern Munich in both games in the Bundesliga and lost them both this season. It happened even when Haaland was there. But of course in the absence of Haaland, the team are going to be weaker in attacking. Malen and Moukoko can't contribute as much as him I think. If they don't find a solid alternative to Haaland then even a tougher season might be waiting for Dortmund now. Bayern Munich are likely to dominate another season in short.

I actually expected more this time.
Gnarby and Lewandowski are still not clear there and indeed this is something good for Dortmund.
Even if they can't stop Bayern from winning, at least when Lewandowski isn't there it will definitely hamper Bayern's goal productivity, even though there are still many productive ones there, it's still profitable when Lewandowski isn't around.

Not only Dortmund are experiencing difficulties after losing Haaland, but it is likely that Bayern will also experience the same thing. Because as you said
the futures of Lewandowski and Gnarby are not clear at Bayern, the two key Bayern players are rumored to be leaving Bayern in the summer transfer
market this year, because Lewandowski and Gnarby reportedly refused a contract extension from Bayern and decided to leave Bayern. We can imagine
if next season Bayern will not be strengthened by Lewandowski and Gnarby who have contributed quite a lot, this is indeed good news for Dortmund.
Which Dortmund is more ready to face next season after getting Karim Adeyemi as a replacement for Haaland. In addition, Dortmund also managed
to strengthen the back line after getting Niklas Sule from Bayern. Therefore Bayern are struggling to get Sadio Mane from Liverpool as a replacement
for Lewandowski. If it is true that Bayern can get Sadio Mane from Liverpool, it is likely that Bayern will dominate the Bundesliga again next season.

Borussia Dortmund actually has great potential to be able to compete even more tightly with Bayern Munich. But yeah, I see they are not serious about it, they just want to have an advantage in terms of money for this team. The result as we see, they can not compete with the rulers of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich. This makes the Bundesliga monotonous in terms of competition.

Borussia Dortmund has a great potential alright but they are riding the number 2 spot in the Bundesliga all thanks to Erling Haaland, but I think Dortmund can push even further if Erling Haaland didn't get injured and have many absences for most of the games, well, it is not his fault and he has said in an interview that he really hates himself for getting injured and not able to play full time for the season, but for the next season Dortmund would have to play in the Bundesliga without a reliable striker because Erling Haaland is transferred to Manchester City

This is true, Robert Lewandowski is reportedly looking for greener pastures or perhaps higher pay and his most likely destination is either of Real Madrid or Barcelona. With Haaland already signed by Pep at Manchester city, it is either Bayern get a younger striker, or perhaps rely on academy graduates to fill the shoes of their goalscoring talisman. With Sadio Mane signing imminent. I think Bayern will conduct their businesses well

I really think you didn't have any idea about the news on Robert Lewandowski, right now Lewandowski is not on good terms with Bayern Munich, the club wants to keep him next season, but as you said he already wants to be out of Bayern, and wants to be with Barcelona, and if Bayern would still not let him out of the Bundesliga he will be the one to buy out his contract with a 2004 webster ruling that players 28 years and above can pay compensation to terminate his contract with Bayern, and by doing this he doesn't really care about higher pay because Barcelona has backed down in getting him because of his higher price, that Bayern have set, and Barcelona really can not afford to his fee, but Lewandowski still looks forward to the transfer.

It is not really that much shocking to say that Bayern will be champions again. The next best team was Leipzig just a year ago, they got their manager and defender, this year it was Dortmund, which lost Haaland as well, so the upcoming year it will be simple again, whoever gets even a little bit better ends up with losing important pieces which makes things easier for Bayern all over again. Whereas, Bayern is so rich and well that they are considering selling Lewandowski, the player that should have won ballon d'or, and literally broke the record for the most goals in a season just a year prior, Bayern is THAT good and should definitely win the league.

Oh, I still think that Bayern Munich would have been happy to keep Lewandowski for another season before the end of his contract, which, however, the club was originally going to do, it's just that the striker himself is no longer enthusiastic about such a prospect and would like to change the club and the environment. I had more expectations from Leipzig this season, but the club failed the first half of the season and so we saw the classics of the genre again, when the only competitor of the Bavarian giant was the club from Dortmund. Until Dortmund changes its strategy of making money by selling players, then I think Munich can be calm about this particular competitor.

They are like supportive opponent for Bayern. Growing young players up, making them to become new stars in Bundesliga and Europe. Bayern knock their doors and their star players move to Munich. The attraction of Bayern and their strong finance make them stronger and in one perspective, it is good for Bundesliga because Bayern are very good representative of Bundesliga in Champions League. They are the best club of Bundesliga in Champions League.

Bayern don't want to give a long contract with old players and they don't want to give Lewandowski exception. Lewandowski still knows he is at top level and he is ambitious with titles and does not accept low salary. They can not meet each other in this deal so it is better for both to separate in this case.

Leipzig must have very good strategy to keep their star players in the club and find young players as replacements in case star players move to other clubs. Youth players no matter they are home-grown or bought, are future of the club. Leipzig looks like to do it better than Stuggart, Wolfsburg, etc. in the past. They are growing like Dortmund and if they can maintain it, they will build up their position in top 3 of Bundesliga.

it's mike's hard work even though he's just a temporary coach. why does his position as a coach have to be replaced with kramer?

Mike Büskens has said from the beginning that he only wants to stay until the end of the 20021/21 season. When he went to the DFB as U16 coach in 2018 after coaching for Rapid Wien, he said he preferred to work in the second row.  That way he can build continuity. And as a head coach he just get sacked too quickly.

[cygan]

and whether he is the right coach for schalke will probably only be known in december. 

I had read in a newspaper headline that the cash register at Schalke were supposed to be pretty empty. I do not know if that is true. But that could be one reason why they chose Frank Kramer.
Anyway, Mike Büskens will be co-coach again. I think he is personally happy with that too.

schalke's previous sponsor was Gazprom but what I heard schalke stated that the team's finances were in a good zone even though the partnership with gazprom was terminated. it's mike's hard work even though he's just a temporary coach. why does his position as a coach have to be replaced with kramer?

and now the new coaching engagement at schalke 04 is official.
Frank Kramer (who has been given a contract until 2024) takes over at the promoted club and succeeds Mike Büskens, who, as announced, is moving back into the second tier.

I dont agree with that , Dortmund just got no luck the last season and i would say if Haaland was injured many times they would be a real opponent for Munich.
Also the transfers they did now already shows that they planning to get the title in coming season and compete with Bayern Munich seriously.
About Leipzig they also have done well the last years and they just was unlucky too the last season.
My favorites for the coming season are Bayern Munich , Dortmund , Leipzig and Leverkusen.

In my opinion, the price of 40 million is already quite low and the fact that no one is buying him is a signal that the market is pricing him even lower.
The news reports that Lewandowski has stopped communicating with Bayern representatives and is now only available through his agent (who has a reputation as a rotten negotiator). Extremely strange behavior from Lewandowski, I hope Bayern will put him in his place.

Yes, the price of 40 million is very far from Lewandowski's current capacity, although some people still think it's reasonable considering his age now but I think this is still too cheap if you look at the performance he does and the productivity he has.
On the other hand this is a reckless move from Lewandowski. Pini Zahavi is someone who is indeed an incompetent negotiator in this regard and it could be a huge mistake for Lewa to entrust something like this to him

In addition to the transfer price, there is also a player’s salary and it is huge, and given that he wants a long-term contract, this will be an expensive purchase.

I have heard that Barcelona has introduced/is about to introduce (as it is hard to pull off for existing contracts legally) a salary cap of 10 million due to their difficult financial situation. With no one else willing to buy him and his salary in Bavaria is 24 million, it looks like it's time for him to tell stories about how he was misunderstood and dreamed of ending his career in Bavaria all his life 

At the moment, I see that Lewandowski is losing in his stupid war against Bavaria. I don't know how he will get out of this. And I would like to know on the basis of what it all happened - maybe the agent persuaded him to do this, promising that the intimidation would be successful.

They are growing like Dortmund and if they can maintain it, they will build up their position in top 3 of Bundesliga.

But the problem is when dealing with money they are so willing to let go of their core players and this is certainly very difficult for them to navigate the next season.
But on the other hand they need things like this to make their finances stable.
For example for last season alone there were some of their key players who had to move to Bayern with higher pay and salary, on the other hand their coach was also allowed to leave but indeed they have several times the profit from the sale.

My favorites for the coming season are Bayern Munich , Dortmund , Leipzig and Leverkusen.

favourites ? these 4 teams ? i think there is only one favourite. and that will be bayern munich.
the other teams will only fight for the other champions league places. none of these 3 teams will have a chance to become german champion.
even if lewandowski leaves bayern, another super good player will come.
and like every year, bayern munich will end up on first place.

You are right. The only team favorite in the Bundesliga is Bayern Munich. Teams like Dortmund, Leipzig, and Leverkusen will not fight for the title. Dortmund has sold Haaland, the best player in their squad. And Bayern Munich is much stronger than all the other teams. And so all the other Bundesliga teams will be far behind Bayern Munich in the title race.

Sorry, I can't agree with you on everything. First of all, you are right that Dortmund could have continued their fight for the title with Bayern Munich if Haaland had not been injured last season. It is easy to assume that the most important player in their team is Haaland.
Second, this season they are selling their team's most important player, Haaland. Now if they had hoped to win the title next season, they would not have sold the most important player in the squad. Instead, they tried to increase their power.

I know that there have been a little unlucky but they obviously cannot just depend on one player for doing all the work. It almost was light if Erling Haaland scores they win and unless he doesn't score they almost lose every time. I think Bayern Munich is obviously going to win the league title next season as well. Dortmund 2nd. Leipzig  3rd. And I really hope that Dortmund will be able to surprise me.

Maybe he just wanted to say if bayern munchen, dortmund, leipzig and leverkusen are teams that will be in the top 4 next season, I think his prediction might come true if we look at the teams journey this season, but if he predicts another team  will be champions other than bayern munchen in the bundesliga of course it's ridiculous, because indeed bayern munchen is a strong candidate for champion even when the season has not started, dortmund, leipzig and leverkusen might make it difficult for bayern munchen but my guess that it only happens at the beginning of the season but after the middle of the season, I'm pretty sure that Bayern Munich will run fast enough to leave their rivals as they do as usual.

Leverkusen were one step ahead of Leipzig this season. They actually had quite similar statistics in general if we look at the final look of the standings. But Leverkusen were great in last four weeks of the season which helped them secure the third spot. We saw a significant power loss for Leipzig this season. They managed to gather themselves up late in the season but it was only enough for ending the season at the fourth spot. Next season is another ambiguous one for Leipzig but let's see. They are still one of the best teams in the league for sure.

Leverkusen have improved tremendously this season, whereas the previous season Leverkusen was only in 6th place, away from Leipzig,
who was in 2nd position. But this season Leverkusen managed to be in 3rd position, which is above Leipzig's position. An extraordinary
achievement from Leverkusen because they have played quite consistently this season, not like Leipzig who played badly at the start of
the season and started playing well towards the end of the season. Finally Leipzig can be in 4th position this season and can still play
in the Champions League next season. Leverkusen's success this season is because Leverkusen have some great strikers. Such as Patrik Schick,
Lucas Alario, Moussa Diaby and Sardar Azmoun. Leverkusen's attacker is very prolific, especially Patrik Schick who was able to score 24 goals
from 27 appearances. This helped Leverkusen to be in third position.

I will not believe next season bayern munich can again become champions of germany. Every other team has a chance to get rid of the dominance that has been owned by Bayern Munich. Perhaps the biggest fact that I can give as an example is that AC Milan was able to ward off all those who doubted they could win Serie A. But the fact is that AC Milan was able to become the Champion of Serie A. This is my reference to the Bundesliga in the coming season there will be a big surprise in the Bundesliga. whether Dortmund , Leipzig , Leverkusen or any other team. I think the Bayern era will collapse next season.

It is definitely true that the big favorite to win the Bundesliga next year will be of course Bayern Munich again. They just have the strongest squad of players of all the Bundesliga clubs it is as simple as that. That doesn't mean though that it is impossible for the other teams to snatch away a Bundesliga title from time to time from Bayern. The more consecutive titles that Bayern has already won the higher the chance that another club will be successful in the next season, that is just simple maths.
For me the biggest chances to beat Bayern has Leipzig. For me they have a very good mix of players in their team and if they are able to hold Nkunku for another season and also have a good start then maybe they can really challenge Bayern for the title. I don't think that Dortmund will be strong enough to do that.

and now the new coaching engagement at schalke 04 is official.
Frank Kramer (who has been given a contract until 2024) takes over at the promoted club and succeeds Mike Büskens, who, as announced, is moving back into the second tier.

I believe that Kramer will not be bringing any special stuff to the team. Schalke dropped for a reason, and that reason is still there. They need to have a lot more money and make a lot more profit in order to keep making profit, and that is why I have to say that the best thing we could do right now would be to wait and see.

I am not going to start betting on them relegating again, that is not going to be the case right away because of this deal, but if there is a 15.00+ odds, then I am 100% betting on that, that is good odds for them to drop again and by the looks of it for now, it is quite possible since their roster is not filled with good players yet.
