Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Ayers]

High self-confidence is needed and a winning mentality, it seems that Dortmund in that match were not really confident and did not have a winning mentality so they failed to win the match they should have won and won the Bundesliga last season. Obviously this made many of their fans disappointed and came to watch at that time. Playing at home showed disappointment in the players because they failed to become champions.

But I think they will learn from previous failures even though this season doesn't look better than last season because there is another club that will be their biggest challenge apart from Munich, namely Leverkusen, where currently they are playing very consistently at the start of this season, they may also have a chance to win. league this season.

A winning mentality will be formed when they have good quality players and what happened last season was that they should have won the Bundesliga but failed at home. This is quite an embarrassing incident for a club like Dortmund, which always produces talented young players because the opportunity to become champions is very big, but this opportunity was lost at home. The club's vision must be changed slightly by management if they want to compete with other big clubs because if they continue to do things like they are now, it will be difficult for them to compete with other clubs.

If they don't buy some quality players at high prices it won't be a problem because they can take advantage of young players who are developing into future star players. Like some of the players they had before and after leaving they found success at their new clubs and if Dortmund don't do that then I doubt they will be able to reach a good level for the club.

They are not going to invest that much to bring in good players for the squad. Because simply, if they spend that much there will probably not be able to make that by selling players. So even though right now, it is easy to make money by selling players, if the player has some talent, they are still not taking the risk.

However, it is their business model. They can do whatever they feel like working in favour of them. But they are definitely not going for glory. They are going for the Money. And that is the biggest problem, in my opinion. at least from the perspective of a spectator.

If you look at the experience that De Gea already has, it is still quite feasible for a team as big as Bayern Munich to attract him into their squad. Because De Gea is not that old, it is still possible for him to be trusted again as the best goalkeeper in a team that has good dominance in the Bundesliga. And if Sommer can still make a good contribution to Bayern Munich, he doesn't need to be sold either, but for now I think it is also difficult for Bayern Munich to make a choice on this matter.

I mean, if De Gea is so that great, many teams should be interested to sign him after Manchester United not want to extend his contract, isn't? but the reality there's no big team is seriously want to sign him, Bayern Munich is a big team and they're need to find a good goalkeeper.

I think it's because of De Gea want a high salary and no team can afford it except Saudi Arabian teams.

I also feel strange about De Gea, because about De Gea last season at Manchester United last season, in fact De Gea managed to become the best goalkeeper in the Premier League. So, with his status as the best goalkeeper in the Premier League last season, at least this achievement should make De Gea easy to be brought in by other big teams . After all, bringing De Gea at this moment also can be obtained for free too, unless De Gea demands a large salary. Because anyway, in the last transfer window it also seemed like Bayern Munich were not interested in bringing in De Gea so yes, I personally don't believe Bayern Munich will bring in De Gea in the next transfer windows. Despite the fact, Bayern Munich defense so far this season is also not very good and Bayern Munich should bring in a new goalkeeper who certainly also has good quality.

The performance from him has been quite bad with Manchester United. De Gea is conceited a lot and I will blame the defense of Manchester United for that. I am not saying that he did not make any mistakes. Definitely, he did but the defense, especially Harry Maguire was the one to blame. I thought, after he becomes a free agent, other clubs are going to be interested in him and would take him in pretty quickly. But it seems like that is not the case. I really do not know why but clubs are just not interested in him. Could it be the salary?

That's why clubs held by rich people from Saudi Arabia are much better because they not only expect profits from selling players, but they also focus on purchasing the players needed by the club. Club profits are not the only way from selling players and there are many other things they can do. If the club does not have good achievements and does not have great players then sponsorship, ticket sales, merchandise sales and so on cannot be achieved. Because the number of people who see the club will be very limited and there is nothing special about the club seen by people other than fans.

That's the problem that Dortmund management must solve because they basically have big names. Bayern Munich's only strong challenger is actually Dortmund, but they don't try to improve the quality of their game by bringing in good players, so in the end they still can't compete with Bayern Munich.

The problem is that, besides Dortmund fans, the entire Bundesliga is suffering - it’s hard to call the league interesting when the champion has not changed for 11 years. But it seems to me that in the coming years everything may change - Bayern is losing its position every year and competition may intensify not due to the fact that everyone else will become stronger, but due to the fact that Bayern will become weaker.

[TastyChillySauce00]

I think Bayern Munich's only weakness right now is their goalkeeper. I don't want to belittle Ulreich's effort so far though. He hasn't conceded a lot of goals in the Bundesliga. I can't say it when it comes to the Champions League but for now things are good. But I still don't believe in him much for the rest of the season.

Bayern does't have good goalkeeper this time. Daniel peretz really underperform at this moment. That's why gregor kobel has become a new candidate to replace neuer's position as the main goal keeper in bayern.
The club can't only rely on neuer and his is also aged now. His responsiveness is less compared with a few years ago when he was not aged.

He has always been a backup goalkeeper for Neuer so far. Now Neuer is literally finished and Ulreich has taken the shirt from him.

Ulreich must be leaving from bayern as he is not needed by the club anymore. I hope that bayern will able to recruit gregor kobel from dortmund.
Kobel has become the best choice owned by the club at this moment. I remember when tuchel aims to get mendy but it's fail.

Instead of Ulreich I would really love to see some experienced solid goalkeeper. I really hoped to see David de Gea playing for them. 

There will be some to come but i do believe gregor kobel becomes the strongest candidate to be the main goal keeper instead of de gea. De gea was good but he never linked to the bayern.

If we talk about the arrogant De Gea actually he is not an arrogant player in fact he is one of the best goalkeepers that Manchester United has ever had and there were rumors circulating that some time ago Ronaldo had tried to invite De Gea to join Al Nassr but until now there is no clear certainty regarding what De Gea future will be like.
Indeed last season De Gea performed very well with Manchester United and several mistakes were caused by players in the defense line not by De Gea one of the defense line players who was quite ridiculous was Maguire and he was also considered the player who caused Manchester United lose.

There was talk about De Gea being Tuchel preferred goalkeeper to play for Bayern Munich but considering that he wanted high salary Tuchel gave up his intention to bring in De Gea.
If only he managed to play for Bayern Munich then it is very likely that De Gea would be able to have much longer career without having to think about considering early retirement.

But it seems to me that in the coming years everything may change - Bayern is losing its position every year and competition may intensify not due to the fact that everyone else will become stronger, but due to the fact that Bayern will become weaker.

As a big club, Bayern Munchen will always try to increase its strength every season, so that its dominance is not surpassed by other Bundesliga clubs. Looking at last season, Dortmund was almost able to do it, but this season Munchen has more competitive competition than the previous season with the addition of competing clubs such as Laverkusen. I hope the Bundesliga can be won by a club other than Munchen, at least for a season or two, this will make their league less boring.

Munchen performance may decline, but of course other clubs must be more consistent than them. What is clear is that breaking their dominance is very difficult to do, as proven by more than a decade this has not been possible. Dortmund, Laverkusen, VfB and Leipzig must have balanced strength to tackle Munchen this season, because I think these four clubs can do it better than other clubs in the Bundesliga.

It also makes sense when no other big team wants to sign De Gea after being released by Manchester United at the end of last season. I also thought that the barrier for other teams to bring in De Gea was his fairly large salary so that every team would think twice before actually making a decision. And Bayern Munich will also think twice about bringing De Gea into their squad if De Gea himself still has a fairly high salary. Because every team in Europe is not as rich as the team in Saudi Arabia even though it is a big team.

[Velvet78]

Interestingly Union Berlin are shown as the favourite against Stuttgart for the game in three days. I don't see any good reason for this because there is a huge difference between these two teams this season. Union Berlin are going on just horrible. They lost 5 games in a row so far and I can't even imagine how demoralized the players are now.

On the other hand Stuttgart are doing an amazing work. Guirassy has been playing extra as he has scored 13 goals so far. As long as he has a good day in this match as well it will be very difficult for Union Berlin to stop them.

[YuginKadoya]

Experience won't always work for you. If experience was always valued then players like Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos would not be sitting on the bench at Real Madrid. 

De Gea has been Manchester United's goalkeeper for a long time so we have no doubt that he is a manager with plenty of experience but it remains to be seen how well Bayern Munich will get from him. 

In the last season for Manchester United, we saw that he did not perform as expected, that's why Manchester United was forced to end the relationship with him this season. 

As Bayan Munich needs a quality goalkeeper, De Gea may be ahead in terms of experience but may fall short in terms of performance.

There are certain people that is not really good with his performance even though he got a lot of experience, and for sure De Gea could be one of them but regarding him getting decent sometimes I really think this are just coincidence and due to the pressure some people will perform very well,

Bayern Munich still has days left to get a certain Goal Keeper that they prefer, or just upgreade their offense more and give Harry Kane a boost in just scoring just like what they did with Robert Lewandowski,

I think it has to do with his age, because now many big clubs are looking at younger players, and when they have a goalkeeper who is senior enough it is a goalkeeper who has been at the club for a long time. David d Gea is not that great, but his ability is still reliable. Manchester United did something hasty, so they did not extend his contract. The fact is that now they have a goalkeper who has no better performance than David d Gea.

There is the factor about the age that sometimes players don't perform well and sometimes that certain player is past his prime and can not outperform himself for sure, well even though some do see this if a player still wants to play for his team then I think they can not do something about this, I guess all they need to do is to support that player for what he want to do,

I hope bayern to have competitors. I can't evne put borrusia in the same place as barcelona caused by this club was not even able to break the domination by munchen. No reason to call it same as barcelona. Bayern has been dominating the league for more than 1 decade and it doesn't even make sense to call bvb same as barcelona. We have some clubs are performing so well till this time and im so happy with it if the competition for the title race become even stricter than before.
Leverkusen is showing up to be another strongest contender to win the bundesliga this season. Stuttgart was even showing impressive performance till this time. The competition looked like even better compared with the previous season.
Dortmund was not barcelona who can prevent bayern to dominate the league anytime. It's far.

Right now we can not expect Borrusia Dortmund to be on a level with Bayern Munich, and because Dortmund sold some of their prominent players I think they can not get back to dealing with the teams in the 5th place or surely a long time, and surely Dortmund will just play with what remains of their team, but if they can spot a good talent with their existing team now then that will likely be a steal for them,

Right now Leverkusen, Stuttgart, and Leipzig are all going dine for sure so I am expecting a quality game with them against Bayern Munich,

Confusing with David De  Gea position right now after releasing by Manchester United and become free agent still not any teams interested to use his service, seems Bayern Munich can't reach agreement deal due David De Gea ask bigger salary payment. I don't think with Bayern Munich blame with David De Gea level quality as top goals keeper and he has much experience exactly when playing for Manchester United but why difficult reach agreement deal how ever Bayern Munich not spent any cent yet for signing De Gea.

Its classic problem with De Gea want to play for top European level team but he want to earn bigger salary, actually is not problem with highest salary payment if accepted with Saudi Pro League bid offer and playing there.

I really do not know why but clubs are just not interested in him. Could it be the salary?

For De Gea I will not think badly or prefer to think in reality if De Gea is the best player in the premier league in the past but in reality no one club wants to sign him even big complaints like Bayern Munich have never thought about a goalkeeper and if De Gea's performance is still very strong, of course after the end of his contract at Manchester United, many big clubs should make offers because he is leaving as a free agent.
The only good conclusion is that if the next transfer market reopens but there are still no offers for this player, I think De Gea will decide to retire and Bayern Munich will still keep Sven Ulreich.

The difference is very small, only around 0.30 and it seems like the betting market only considers the host factor making Union Berlin the favorite, although in my opinion with odds like that no one is really a favorite, so Stuttgart still has the biggest chance of winning if we look at the difference appearance of both teams.
Quite curious what actually happened to Union Berlin because after two consecutive wins, they have not been able to produce any more points and the addition of two defeats in the Champions League has further increased the length of their bad results so far.
Stuttgart will be a tough opponent for Union Berlin and it is very likely that this will be another bad result or at least they will only be able to get one point in a home game that should be an opportunity for them to get three points.

Its classic problem with De Gea want to play for top European level team but he want to earn bigger salary, actually is not problem with highest salary payment if accepted with Saudi Pro League bid offer and playing there.

Instead of being left without any team and lacking playing time, Degea should have considered a move to the Saudi Pro league, where he'll be paid a hefty salary and even get into the 1st team easily cause being without a club could make him drop form, however he's a smart person he knows he could lose form since he could get to keep for any club for so he decided to employ a personal trainer to keep ùntil he secures a move somewhere probably in the winter window or by next summer.

 There are several clubs I feel Degea might move to, alot of Manchester United fans have been complaining about Onana's form and underperformance so the club might decide to sign De gea as a free agent or he might move to Bayern Munich since Neuer is on a long term injury crisis but I still feel he should consider moving to the Saudi League if none of my speculations happens.

I think that salary was not become the main concern here. De gea has been getting several offers and i remind you that even ronaldo has been trying to convince him to join in the saudo pro league but he has refused it caused by he is still willing to stay even longer in europe with his wife.
I think de gea has other reason for that. I meant let's take a look at how he was always being blamed by a little mistake once he was still a goal keeper of manchester united. De gea is still jobless now and it's still a good idea for bayern to approach him instead of buying dortmnud's goal keeper.
I would rather than try to pick him which is having so many experience instead of kobel from dortmund. I dunno why so many clubs are not even sending him an offer.

De gea is still good being used as a goal keeper but it seems like that he has special requirements for the club to be able to recruit him as a new goal keeper at this moment. I hope de gea will play again in the future.
He is still good enough to be used as a goal keeper for some popular clubs. He has experience and skill.

If Bayern Munich want to sign De Gea, I think the money invested by Bayern Munich in his contract will be a losing investment. He was not released early from Manchester United where age was not a big factor but then performance was a big factor. The Spanish goalkeeper has been left out of the team due to his performance, so it might be a mistake to bring him into the team as Bayern Munich will be hoping for a good performance. If De Gea wants to trade him, then the trade could be successful as Bayan Munich will have the opportunity to sell the goalkeeper to Saudi Arabia after one season, thereby strengthening their funds. I said things my way, now it's a matter of seeing if this deal is finally done

Here is the current odds Union Berlin vs Stuttgart

Union Berlin @2.44
Stuttgart @2.75
Draw @3.15

Indeed Union Berlin is slightly the favourite but since this season Union Berlin was unable to managed their consistency and in Bundesliga or Champion league Union Berlin has poor performance and total Union Berlin has experience 7 losing streak in all competitions with conceded 12 goals so this proven Union Berlin defensive lines is very poor and for Stuttgart they are in the positive conditions with 6 wins from 7 matches and they are clearly better compared to Union Berlin and i think this match will belongs to Stuttgart and as i mention above the odds for Stuttgart was quite high so it's decent to try

[legendbtc]

Yes, considering its economic potential and the way it goes shopping during each transfer window, Dortmund is the opposite of other clubs. Since Dortmund has to make money through transfers, They can sell any of the club's stars as long as they get a high price. Dortmund is forced to sell Bellingham like they sold Haaland or Dembele. After that, Moukoko and Duranville will step up to take on important roles in the team. But the story will always be just such a circle. They only focus on investing in young players with potential or cheap but good players from free transfers. Buying low and selling high is always the way this club does business.

The economic standpoint of Dortmund is pretty much great for them in doing such things they really get players at a small price and then sell them when they tend to be a great deal in the future buying playing with a small amount is something the Bundesliga is doing for sure the Dortmund have a great trader in the midst of doing such things,

The business strategy of not buying superstars but creating superstars originated from the financial crisis that made Dortmund miserable in 2004. Indeed, for many years, the team from Germany still exists and is a force in world football. The team's philosophy of selling talented players also makes it weaker, but they have earned a lot of money to maintain the team until now.

Dortmund last won the Bundesliga championship in the 2011-2012 season. After that, Bayern Munich began a period of domination. Assuming Dortmund can keep their star. Dortmund can also compete with giants Bayern Munich.

I think failing to convince a player to stay is the main reason and not selling them. What if player puts a pressure and declines contract extensions? Then obviously it will be loss for  Dortmund later on as the player will move out for free. I feel that Dortmund should find a good way to convince a plyer to stay as like this they are only waiting for Bayern to become inconsistent in the league and get the title for themselves. Dortmund are just not putting any effort to win the title like this .

Even though Stuttgart's current performance is very impressive and is in second place in the standings, from the start Stuttgart was a weak team. So it is natural that Union Berlin is the favorite and they will even be the hosts in this match. Union Berlin will definitely still be targeting another win after their last few matches didn't get good results. Union Berlin can return to a positive trend if they can beat Stuttgart and must be reminded again that Stuttagart this season is very different from last season. Of course, the mentality of each player will be at stake in this match and in fact both teams have the same target and definitely don't want to lose a single point.
