Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[indah rezqi]

West Ham United have made an offer of 25 million Euro with bonuses to Borussia Dortmund for Niclas Füllkrug. Dortmund were expecting at least 30 million Euro. Füllkrug scored 15 goals and provided 10 assists in 43 appearances for Dortmund last season. I don't know why Dortmund are so comfortable letting him go, although he is getting a bit older and 25 million Euro might be a good offer. If Dortmund sells Füllkrug, they will replace him with Maximilian Beier. Hoffenheim's young talent has a long way to go. It may seem like a gamble for Dortmund to replace a veteran with a youngster, but we all know Dortmund's track record of letting youngsters shine. I think it will be a good transfer move.

Do you ask saying Borussia Dortmund is so comfortable letting go of their players? Isn't that a habit for a long time? No matter whether the player is young or old, as long as Borussia Dortmund gets a profit from the sale of the player, they will never hesitate to release it. They are more concerned with business than achievements, what I have seen from them so far.

The difference between the offer proposed and the price desired by Borussia Dortmund is quite small, so I am quite confident that there will be an agreement between them. Maybe West Ham only needs to add a little more so that Borussia Dortmund releases this player. Obviously it is a pretty good offer for Füllkrug so an opportunity like this is usually not missed by Borussia Dortmund. Honestly I want to see them change their habits to make them able to provide competition and be able to achieve an achievement. Because if they really intend to pursue achievements, then I'm sure they will be able to get it.

Regeneration in the squad is indeed needed, but Dortmund is already known for its policy of cashing in on its star players. Niclas Fullkrug is already 31 years old, his contract will expire in June 2026, of course Dortmund does not want to waste the opportunity to get a little profit from the transfer. Reportedly an agreement with Maximilian Beier has been reached, and Hoffenheim has agreed to release him for a price of around 30 million. If the transfer is successful, Dortmund will win the competition with Chelsea and Aston Villa who also want Maximilian Beier services.

The change of manager did not make Dortmund change its overall policy, they still prioritize income from the sale of star players. Dortmund does not seem too ambitious in pursuing trophies, their journey last season in the Champions League could be said to be a stroke of luck. I think many people will assume that when looking at Dortmund, although that is not entirely true. Nuri Sahin seems to be starting his job hard, the competition for trophies next season will involve more teams, unlike previous seasons.

It seems that Bayern Munich did not make a mistake in choosing Kompany as their coach because it could also be a turning point for Bayern Munich in dominating the Bundesliga next season, because last season they were left behind because of a stronger rival. And if Kompany succeeds in bringing Bayern Munich to be champions next season, I think there will be many people who want to praise him like what happened to Xabi Alonso last season. Because Kompany has a difficult task at Bayern Munich even though the Bayern Munich players are very good players and also have enough experience.

We’re yet to see the impressive good work of Vincent Kompany in Bayern Munich. He needs time to lay things down and go completely for the big games. He has priorities to meet up and expectations from the team’s supporters are extremely high, either ways he has to keep the club in good looking shape. Bayern Munich will cope with the new pattern from Vincent Kompany and the players will swiftly fit in and some will not, probably take time.

I am not expecting much from Vincent Kompany in his first season with Bayern Munich because he might not get things right in his first season and at the same time, I am not expecting a worse performance from him in such a way that he won’t be able to be a contender for the league title or go far in the champions league competition. He has a good squad on ground already, he just needs to try out some strategies in him first few games in order to know which method fits best to be used for the club in the next season. I am expecting much from him though, I hope he won’t disappoint many of us that have hope in him to do well as the head coach of Bayern Munich.

Even its sad that Niclas Füllkrug will be leave Dortumd to West Ham United i guess its maybe the right hing for both the player and also Dortmund.
With all the younger players he has at the same position it would be hard for him , figngers crossed that he will be score in West Ham the same as in the german league.
Hopefully Maximilian Beier will be come to Dortmund and getting his chance to grow more and also score goals there.

We haven't even seen any official matches yet and they've only had 2 friendlies so far with a massacre in the first and a draw against Duren in the second.
The early results actually still look pretty good although there are still gaps and some notes especially the massacre in the first match actually it can also be considered his opponent who is still not worth it.

But in this case we still cannot make a thing that really considers that Kompany cannot be at Bayern because of his poor performance. We still have to give time at least until the new season starts to see whether Kompany is worth it or not. It's just that if we read in recent weeks especially after Kompany was made a coach by Bayern we seemed to be affected and considered him a failure just because he lacked achievements but we did not give him the opportunity to do his job at the beginning of the season.

Dortmund will never be able to remain silent in the transfer market, where they always cash in on their mainstay players, in fact this has become their tradition. In every season, Dortmund always succeeds in turning other players into star players, so in this case they have managed to balance quite well. But what Dortmund management is doing is certainly not a good thing for fans because fans always fail to see Dortmund become champions.

Regarding Maximilian Beier, of course the progress of his transfer to Dortmund is almost complete, where Dortmund will complete all the requirements next week. So Beier is certain to be a replacement for Nicklas Fulkrug who left in this transfer window.

I honestly don't understand how they paid attention to him and at what point they wanted to hire him as a coach. Considering that the team under him didn't just play horribly, they were out of the league altogether. I hope he's ready for a serious team like Bayern, because seeing them not in the top 3 in the table will be very unusual

The match has been going on for 75 minutes and Bayern Munich is still ahead of Tottenham even though Tottenham recently scored 1 goal but I think this time Bayern Munich will win the match by a narrow score or maybe it will end in a draw. I see Bayern Munich's formation without Harry Kane Bayern Munich's attack is also still strong against the Premier League club Tottenham, the opposing club seems using their main players while Bayern Munich chooses to use reserve players, Vincent Kompany is quite good at using strategies so that his main players maintain their stamina I hope Bayern Munich wins this match.

The game ended in favor of Bayern  Munich and I must commend their brilliant performance especially in the first half. Although, Bayern was a little bit sloppy in the second half but their overall performance was excellent and commendable. It is the right time for Kompany to pay attention to their deficiency and work on them. I noticed how they were holding on to the ball even when they are surrounded. There's no point fooling about with the ball, they should pass the ball and advance to prevent unnecessary losing of possessions. Kudos to Kompany and the lads thou.

I am confident Kompany came to Bayern Munich to help the team since he has shown development in the preseason, but he is not yet clear about what to expect in the league. But I'm hopeful he'll try his best and win the league next season. Tottenham need to get difficult players since it has been a long time since they have won a trophy. They normally do well and then perform poorly, which is why Harry Kane left the club because he believes he will not win a title if he stays. And Harry Kane needs to attempt and win titles with Bayern Munich next season with the new coach. Let's see how the new season will be if Bayern Munich gets the chance on Leverkusen and wins the Bundesliga trophy next season. I'm just thinking Tottenham will face difficulties if they don't have enough experienced players in the team next season.

As usual, Kompany will get praise when Bayern Munich wins and will get criticism when they lose, it has become a tradition in football. It is difficult to find a concrete reason why Bayern Munich management is so brave to appoint Kompany as Thomas Tuchel replacement, what is clear is that they do not want to get rejection from the targeted manager again. For Kompany, becoming Bayern Munich manager is a leap in his career, and he must understand very well what is at stake. His job will never be easy because he has to conquer the Bundesliga and the Champions League, that is the target set by management every season. If Kompany is able to record good results at the start of the season, then the journey ahead will be easier. I think Kompany will prioritise the Bundesliga trophy in his first season, and that looks more realistic to achieve.

Kompany does not yet have sufficient experience in managing a big team and this season is his first season coaching a big team and of course he will have a lot of work to do. I think he should be able to bring Bayern Munich to become champions because that will increase management's confidence in continuing to believe in him for a long time. 
But if he fails to bring Bayern Munich to a trophy this season, of course his position will be quite vulnerable to being fired.
Indeed, defeat is not something he wants, but the work of bringing the team to always win is not an easy thing, but he can balance it match by match. Of course, the first thing that Kompany must achieve is to gain full trust from the fans because fans can always make the situation on the pitch change for the better. The players get support and the coach gets support so the game will be better to continue looking for victory.

It may seem like a gamble for Dortmund to replace a veteran with a youngster, but we all know Dortmund's track record of letting youngsters shine. I think it will be a good transfer move.

IMO, it is a very good offer. West Ham wants to spend 25 million Euros, it is above the market value of Niclas Füllkrug (15 million Euros). I don't understand why Dortmund doesn't easily accept it? As far as I know, Dortmund bought him only with 17 million Euros. Basically, Dortmund already get enough profits if they accept 25 million Euros from West Ham. Moreover, Niclas Füllkrug is already 31 years old, Dortmund is better to focus on younger striker. Dortmund still has 3 striker even if they sell Niclas Füllkrug. There are Serhou Guirassy (28), Sébastien Haller (30), and Youssoufa Moukoko (19). I think Serhou Guirassy should be the main striker, his stats is much better than Niclas Füllkrug. So, it is actually the right way to sell Niclas Füllkrug to West Ham.

By the way, I just checked the latest news related to Niclas Füllkrug. He will undergo medical test in West Ham today, West Ham and Dortmund already got an agreement about the price (transfer fees). Not sure how much West Ham will pay to Dortmund, there is a media stated it is 27 million Euros but other reported 25 million Euros.



Kindly check the news below:
1. West Ham agree £27m for Fullkrug's price
2. West Ham ultimately agreed to pay £25.5 million
3. Füllkrug will undergo medical test today

That's generally a true point, but Kompany himself has nothing to lose. The only people who have something on the line here are the bosses of Bayern Munich. I am sure that many people don't really understand the decision to go with a coach without any experience on the highest level whatsoever and I also think that it won't be easy for Kompany to gain the respect from all the Bayern Munich star players. But then again there was hardly any top coach available on the market.

Blaming the manager when a team fails to make progress or get good results and praising him when the team succeeds is not a new development in football. It's a norm that's been in existence for ages and that's why it's advisable for football managers to take jobs they know they can handle. For Vincent Kompany to accept that he'll become the next manager of Bayern Munich, he's already accepted his fate and is very ready for what will come afterwards. He's been giving all the necessary support he needs to succeed at Bayern Munich and will definitely get all the backlash from fans of the club of he fails to deliver.

Unlike what was reported some time ago where Xavi Simons would join Bayern Munich or even return to PSG again but now it is all clear where he will stay in Leipzig on loan for one more season. It seems that Xavi Simons still feels comfortable in Leipzig and he has not encountered any obstacles with his current club since last season and is determined to continue to give his best.

I think this decision is quite right considering that even if he goes to Bayern Munich he may not necessarily be the main choice considering that Vincent Kompany is quite sorted for player matters and indeed from the start this was only the desire of the club management who were interested in bringing him in. Even if he returns to PSG he may not find challenges like in Leipzig so if he returns it will only waste the potential that he has built.

If Kompany had considered him to fit into his plans, I believe they would have made arrangements for him to be back but since he's got no place just yet, it would be needless trying to get him on the team, rather it will be even better he stays back there on loan where he's getting more potential development on the future advancement of his career, he's been of help to Leipzig since his arrival even if they are yet to get a trophy just yet but they have gotten some good achievements in the time he's been with them.

As usual, Kompany will get praise when Bayern Munich wins and will get criticism when they lose, it has become a tradition in football. It is difficult to find a concrete reason why Bayern Munich management is so brave to appoint Kompany as Thomas Tuchel replacement,

This will be experienced by all coaches and clubs, of course they will be blamed for losing and praised when they win. However, Kompany was indeed chosen by Bayern Munich as a coach from the beginning, it was a very controversial decision. So if one day Bayern Munich loses, of course the criticism of Kompany will be even greater, coupled with the doubts from many parties for the new Bayern Munich coach. They seem to really doubt Kompany's ability to replace Tuchel even though the new round of the league he is waiting for has not started.

Regeneration in the squad is indeed needed, but Dortmund is already known for its policy of cashing in on its star players. Niclas Fullkrug is already 31 years old, his contract will expire in June 2026, of course Dortmund does not want to waste the opportunity to get a little profit from the transfer. Reportedly an agreement with Maximilian Beier has been reached, and Hoffenheim has agreed to release him for a price of around 30 million. If the transfer is successful, Dortmund will win the competition with Chelsea and Aston Villa who also want Maximilian Beier services.

The latest info is that West Ham has closed the deal for Niclas Füllkrug with €27m plus €5m, where, his contract will expire until June 2027. Yes, since long ago, Dortmund has been quite famous for its skill in raising the player and then selling it. It's like a business. But whatever it is, maybe it's one of their strategies. For this season, at least we see some of their arrival transfers that are quite good for the team. Although not the top players, at least they can get the player to strengthen the club. They also managed to get 2 mainstay Stuttgart players with a fairly large fee, Serhou Guirassy in the Center-Forward position and also Waldemar Anton in the Center-Back position. As for the other arrival players, and at least they got Yan Couto on loan from Man City. Ah, this may not be as spectacular as signing other top clubs. But I am also curious about some of the young players from Dortmund's academy, can they become stars again?
