Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[nara1892]

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.

It is obvious that we are going to end up seeing Bayern eventually start looking not just a replacement for time being, but a long term replacement as well. They probably had some players in mind before and they will look to get those younger players now.

This way not only those goalkeepers will play until Neuer is back, but also they could play together with Neuer when he comes back and learn from him and then they would just bench Neuer and use the younger one. Look at PSG, did they use donnaruma as soon as he got in? Of course not, they kept Navas in for a long time and gradually and slowly replaced him with donnaruma, same logic could happen here.

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?

[buwaytress]

Man, so hard to sift through the garbage of the last 2 pages, Bayern and Neuer this and that haha.

What I'm interested to know now is how will the German teams emerge out of this tournament? Bayern lose their #1 keeper and Sadio, will they falter with Varane and Koman heartache? I actually feel like they could slip...

Doan whom I was counting on to be his country's best performer should receive a hero's welcome in Freiburg, does he go on to revive their Top 4 ambitions?

Reyna was a huge flop, Guerreiro was awesome, but Bellingham has only increased his price tag -- can he give BVB a nice parting 2nd half Bundesliga performance?

Gvardiol might have taken home an award if he'd played in the final, is Leipzig also going to make the most of him before he (surely) leaves?

Those are my burning questions -- to turn into betting advantages

[darewaller]

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.

[TheGreatPython]

the performances of Freiburg and Frankfurt are much better than Dortmund and I predict that Dortmund will not be able to finish in the top 5 until the end of the season. dortmund is ranked 6th in the bundesliga standings with 25 points, so far dortmund has lost 6 times, and that keeps their ranking from being in the top 5, other news that is not pleasant to hear is that Youssoufa Moukoko intends to leave dortmund, this will definitely add to internal problems for dortmund because bellingham is also reportedly being targeted by another team.

We have some shocking start of this season for few teams like Borussia Dortmund, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen but good thing happen with Bayern Munich after some struggle now they are back at the top but sadly other teams are still struggling badly and have no better results before this break hopefully now after break they could be improved performance and touch better levels in League table but right now Freiburg, Leipzig and Frankfurt are doing amazing job and have good fight for the Champions League spot even this all is too early but still these teams can do good for this season, and we can watch good entertaining end of this season specially Union Berlin which have good time at the top now struggling and wants to fight back for the good spot which is now not easy.

Several players owned by Borussia Dortmund are rumored to be leaving this winter, it is true that it will be a serious problem when they cannot convince the player to stay with them. The reason is that now they are in a bad condition and if the players leave, they will find it difficult to find replacement players. Yes I know they can always make great players but I don't think they will be able to do it in such a short amount of time.

This season some teams like Freiburg or Frankfurt have really surprised me with their incredible performance. But I have to say that I expected more from Dortmund and they have not been as much consistent as I expected them to be.

As @Sirait said, Moukuku might be leaving the Borussia Dortmund squad, and this has been Dortmund's scheme of earning money, which is selling their better players and scouting for more promising young players.

I think in my opinion Dortmund might be able to finish at the top for at least as they are a big club and they have some experience players. But only time will tell and another factor is how Freiburg and Frankfurt perform in the coming days.

[tbct_mt2]

As @Sirait said, Moukuku might be leaving the Borussia Dortmund squad, and this has been Dortmund's scheme of earning money, which is selling their better players and scouting for more promising young players.

Youssoufa Moukoko might leave Dortmund in future and I am not doubtful about this because I know about their strategy. Moukoko will not be exception if Dortmund need money or receive too good offer, they will not reject to sell Moukoko.

Many star players left Dortmund with profitable transfers for them in the past decade: Sahin, Gundogan, Lewandowski, Gotze, Hummels, Aubameyang, Pulisic, Haaland, Sancho. Reus is the only star player stayed in their club after all and I believe it is because of Reus' loyalty for Dortmund as well as his injuries. If Reus did not get too many injuries, Dortmund would sell him too.

Moukoko will need a few more seasons to perform better. In this season, he has yet performed at world class level so he does not attract too much interests from big clubs. But he is still young enough and we might see a super star player Moukoko in next few years.

This is will be too bad for dortmund if it is true,  dortmund has always have the nature of selling their best players.  They don't care to know if they need this players , them selling their best players is affecting their performance to win trophies.

Union Berlin started the season well but could not maintain consistency. And now they are fifth in the points table. Bayern Munich regained the top spot in the table. The performances of Freiburg, Leipzig and Frankfurt are now quite stable. However, no team in the Bundesliga has the ability to compete with Bayern Munich for the title. As in the previous seasons, this season also Bayern Munich team has continued to dominate. And Bayern Munich will win the title. However, teams such as Freiburg, Leipzig and Frankfurt continue to struggle to qualify for the Champions League.

If that's what they consider, it means that Dortmund doesn't really aim for trophies every season so they are still considering selling their best players to other teams when there are very tempting offers. The point is that Dortmund are only concerned with money for themselves without thinking about the careers of their players. Obviously this is very unfortunate because Dortmund should have kept the best players to win trophies, not just wanting to earn money from selling the best players.

Look at PSG, did they use donnaruma as soon as he got in? Of course not, they kept Navas in for a long time and gradually and slowly replaced him with donnaruma, same logic could happen here.

Manuel Neuer was irresponsible and that will cost him a lot, in my opinion I think he should think about retiring, because he is 36 years old, he will be 37 in a little while, he will be without playing for some time, bayern will sign another goalkeeper, if that other goalkeeper is better than Manuel Neuer and is younger, then bayern will no longer need Manuel Neuer, this is something very simple to predict, Manuel Neuer will no longer have another team to play due to his age and also because he will be sitting on the bench, so the only option he has is to retire now, I don't see any other choice he could have

this is something that would happen this or another season, but thanks to his injury, it accelerated the process of replacing him, and I think that bayern like any other team will look for a very young goalkeeper who can stay in the team for many seasons, and also bayern will not want to be spending money paying Manuel Neuer just for him to stay on the bench, Manuel Neuer will have to retire

[LUCKMCFLY]

Bayern has been planned to get some strong strikers and additional player for its club. The fact that if there will be so many prepration will have done by bayern caused by it will be facing PSG in the last 16. Union berlin was nothing for now.
It seems like that domination from bayern in this season absolute and another team can't replace bayern in any case. Bayern will be winning the trophy again with more than 80% chance.

According from the Sky Transfer News and other News article Bayern Munich has very good chances for getting Konrad laimer from RB Leipzig.
Source : https://rblive.de/news/konrad-laimer-fc-bayern-wechsel-doch-schon-beschlossene-sache--3495293
Looks like Laimer want to get to Nagelsmann again and Bayern always got an eye on Laimer already in the last transfer period.

There is no doubt that Konrad Laimer is a good player with a lot of potential. I think he is going to be an excellent midfielder for Bayern Munich in the future. However, I have heard that Liverpool is also interested in this player. However, Bayern Munich is clearly ahead of the competition in terms of getting this player. There might have actually been a verbal agreement between the player in Bayern Munich and the agent.

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.

I really don't know and I want to understand how things are handled at the Dortmund level, I think it's a team that needs to have a lot of money to be able to prosper, but they are a breeding ground for great players but they can't keep them when they're on the rise and They do not even reach the maximum point, this is something very strange, it has happened with Lewa, with Haaland, and the truth is as if they were preparing them for the best clubs in Europe, there are things that we do not understand within the Bundesliga teams, and I think that what these teams want has not yet been uncovered, but honestly I do not consider it a good strategy nor is it something healthy.

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.

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

[Tony116]

There is no doubt in my mind that Frankfurt have done a terrific job in the German League so far, and I'm quite impressed with their performances. It is very unlikely that they will be able to climb into the top-four position after almost half of the season is over.
As a matter of fact, I was not expecting them to even be in the top six position. Despite this, they have redeemed themselves and they have done exceptionally well. They have scored 32 goals in only 15 matches, which is a huge amount considering they've only played 15 matches. My opinion is that what they really need to improve on is their defense, since they have conceded 24 goals, which is quite a bit in my opinion. It really is my hope that they will be able to finish in the top four and finish the season on a high.

Indeed they need to get players that have a sole purpose on defense which means they will sacrifice their offense to give way on defense, but most of the time players would surely want the limelight on them and make it big by getting some goal,

for me Frankfurt is not a bad team, they are now more decent than the last season, and actually offensive wise they got something that other teams should be afraid of they have enhanced their offense since last season, and pretty much they are lucky with the departure of both Halland and Lewandowski in the Bundesliga for me they surely now have a chance in snatching the championship from Bayern Munich, or even landed on the 2nd standing of the Bundesliga,

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.

Considering they are doing fine at the fourth position but also there are other teams, like fifth Berlin is also at the same points, and Dortmund is at sixth trailing with just 2 points. These means that there is a chance that we could see Frankfurt dropping or they could end up winning more games and they could go higher as well, in that case Berlin and Dortmund would have to just pass the higher standing teams in the future.

I can't say much about Bundesliga because aside from Bayern being great, all others is a risk and usually not an easy thing to predict. In any other league I would say Bayern first, Dortmund second, Leipzig third and Frankfurt fourth but as we have seen so far that's not the case.

Yes, I agree with you that Frankfurt are under threat from other teams like Union Berlin and Borussia Dortmund. But I firmly believe that with the attacking options they have and the team chemistry they have going on, if their coaches play the tactics right, I think they are up for a champions league position in the next season. Dortmund has not been playing that consistently but Union Berlin has been doing well in my opinion. All Frankfurt have to do right now is try to concede less as their defense has been quite a bit of a problem for them.

This concerns their management which makes Borussia Dortmund always take actions like that. It makes perfect sense with what they are doing that Borussia Dortmund don't intend to win the title, but I don't see the same thing in other clubs, because other clubs are competing to win titles. This is very strange in my opinion. How can one club not want to be champions when they have everything it takes to make it happen.
I think if we want to see Borussia Dortmund win then we have to see a change in management first. It is very unfortunate for the players who are part of them when they have to become victims of the business they run.

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.

[Pulsar77]

Frankfurt are of course among the impressive teams of the Bundesliga in the recent years. Although they didn't have a good run in the Bundesliga in the previous season, they were amazing in the Europa League. I wasn't expecting them to win the title there even a bit. Now it looks like there is much more improvement in their effort. Because they are doing a great work in the Bundesliga and Champions League both. They are able to keep their presence in top 4 while they are advancing to next stages in the Champions League.

Most probably they are close to their end in the Champions League though. Because Napoli are one of the toughest opponents for them there. In that case they can still concentrate on the Bundesliga more and fight for top 4 until the end of the season. I don't think they will have a bad placement in the league this time.
