Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Akbarkoe]

Almost 2 weeks the league will be off. The players who defended the country in the world cup qualifiers. Of course, this schedule is an addition that requires a lot of energy. The fitness of the players will be tested and there may be a possibility of fatigue that will make the players prone to injury. The reason is that the top players who are in the European first team have played with a very tight schedule. Leagues, league cups, UCL with new formats add to the problem of tight match schedules.

Most of the time, players carry an extra spark when they put on their national jerseys. It is hectic, but most of them consider this opportunity as one of the most significant moments in their careers, showing their dedication to the country. The problem, of course, is the club improving their fitness upon arrival so that they are ready for the equally important matches of the club.

Other news from local media in Munich is interested in young players from the United States. He is Bajung Darboe. Reportedly, Munich has agreed on a transfer value of 1.5 million euros. Darboe will move to Munich in January. He came from the cooperation of Munich and LAFC on the Red & Gold Football program.

Bayern Munich is famous for having a very strong and deep attacking line. The many quality players in the forward position make sure Bayern always has that option to break pretty much any defense in either domestic or European competition. Bringing in Bajung Darboe from LAFC also as a very young player seems the long-term investment that he is about. More likely than not, he will emerge through that famously effective training system of Bayern to be a key player in years to come. This is a deal that shows where Bayern are focused on, at the same time as keeping the quality of their attack line for years to come.

It doesn't feel to me like it's because of the team and the team depth he's not getting similar results as last season, literally he appears to be using almost same strategy and tactics, but it's not productive as much again, actually if you observed you are going to see that they are getting too many draws just like they did last season but this time they have got some lost games which they didn't last season, so if he had changed his tactics, it's very possible he would have been able to still have a great performance because now the bundesliga teams now understand his strategy and are following at such thereby rendering it less potent.

Yes I think that's true and I also thought in that direction that most likely Xabi Alonso did not make many changes in terms of strategy or tactics, we know how amazing they were last season but of course such satisfying results will not always be repeated this season considering most of the other teams who must have known how Leverkusen's tactics and strategies are when playing, and that is the cause of their failure this season which made them draw more than win.

Now even though Leverkusen is still in the top four of the standings but they have a fairly large points difference with Bayern Munich, meaning that it is very unlikely for them to be able to defend the title they won last season, and also even if for example Xabi Alonso changes his tactics now but I think it's too late, so most likely they will fail to defend the title but finishing in the top four is still possible.

I think it's the new manager syndrome that helped Leverkusen in the previous season, he came with not only a good strategy but some most teams couldn't understand but it seems several managers took their time to study his strategy and that's why it became tough for him to repeat the performance of the previous season. Well, I didn't expect Leverkusen to be unbeaten in two consecutive seasons, that's some that we don't normally see in modern football and even tough for most top managers to do, I don't even think Leverkusen would win this season's Bundesliga title though they might finish in the top four and qualify for the champions league. Bayern Munich are more favourites to lift the trophy and it's gradually becoming a reality cause they'll the only team in the Bundesliga that's yet to be defeated, they play much more better and different from the previous season and I believe they'll reclaim their trophy and become dominate in the league once again.

Borussia Dortmund under Nuri Şahin have had a poor away record this season. but they now have a seven-match winning streak at home. A 7-match home winning streak is a record for Borussia Dortmund. On the other hand, Nuri Şahin's coaching career at Borussia Dortmund did not get off to a good start. But I think Borussia Dortmund should give him more chances. Nuri Şahin is a former Borussia Dortmund player and has experience in the German Bundesliga. I think he will start to get good results in away games as well.

Where did you find the information that this is a record for Borussia Dortmund? You could simply include the link of the source you have been using.

As for Nuri Sahin, being a former Borussia Dortmund and a Bundesliga player are nice to have attributes, but they are never a guarantee for someone to develop the traits it takes to build world class football teams. I don't think that Nuri Sahin is the best coach for the club given the situation they are in. I would rather want a more experienced coach who has developed a team before. Even if it is only a very successful youth team, but Nuri Sahin literally has nothing to show. It was the worst choice in my opinion, but maybe it was because there was nobody else.

Experience as a player is not always directly proportional to ability as a coach, and we can see how sahin is currently under intense pressure due to dortmund poor performance, sahin is still in the early stages of his coaching career,although he has experience playing at big clubs, of course it is not necessarily enough to overcome the challenges as a current head coach, I personally think that if the appointment of sahin as a coach is a big risk because he has not had better experience in coaching before, I personally agree with what you said, if dortmund wants to compete in the championship both in the UCL and also in the bundesliga, it should be for them to recruit a coach with more experience in managing the team and facing high pressure in coaching so far, If I must to choose, I  probably consider a coach who has proven to be able to build a team from the ground up and has a good track record of developing young players and managing teams in competitive leagues like nagelsman and xavi.

They can't do anything and have to play more matches, especially for players who are trusted by the country to be part of the squad. However, the players will be very happy when they are called by their country, because it can be said that this is one of their goals. Because when they are called, they must have become players who deserve to be called.
Now regarding the Champions League schedule with a new format, it has actually been discussed for a long time. However, we are all in this new format, so clubs and players must enjoy it even though it cannot be denied that a denser schedule will drain more energy too.

The congested fixture schedule has led to a significant increase in injury concerns, a common problem that most teams now face, especially top European sides involved in multiple competitions. While club managers certainly hope that their players return fit to serve the club interests, fatigue is an inevitable factor. Representing country is undoubtedly an honour and a recognition of a player peak performance. However, in such situations, elite clubs are often hesitant to release star players on international duty due to the high risk of injury upon their return.

Yes, we see some cases of players getting injured after defending their national team. a loss indeed for the club, but we can't blame the players for it. We can assume the injury is an accident, even without players strengthening the national team, they can also get injured in club matches.
It is also not wrong if the club feels reluctant to release their players to defend the national team. Because if they get injured, then the club is the one who suffers the greatest loss. Players must also know their limits, they must improve their fitness so that they don't get tired easily in matches that may be increasingly dense with short rest times.

I'm sure not all players think like that and there will be more and more of them - just look at how many players have had injuries that have completely knocked them out of the season. I think that's an abnormal number. Even if they are as stupid as possible, they will soon understand that it's better to avoid trash games (even if they are games for the national team), for example Mbappe has already started doing this

The reason is that the top players who are in the European first team have played with a very tight schedule. Leagues, league cups, UCL with new formats add to the problem of tight match schedules.

This is one of the reasons why some big clubs in the 5 European major leagues are struggling right now, and the smaller teams are flying. The big teams players don't have much time to rest, they are always engaged with the either the league schedules, Champions league, league cups, international schedules. Whereas the smaller team, most of their players won't get involved in international duties and they are not playing European football. They have enough time to rest and when they play in the league thy tends to dominate the big teams. The big teams are losing their players to injuries and nobody is saying anything about this. The new champions league format is not helping matters at all. Bigger teams should be allowed to sign and register more players because of the numbers of games that they will be playing during the season. So when I see smaller teams winning big teams like Dortmund I'm not really surprised.

[Raflesia]

Die Werkself does not have a great squad even though they have been able to win the Bundesliga title in the last season. It is clear they are still trying the same things that they have tried in the last season. The thing is now the opponent knows what Xabi Alonso is going to try to do and they have to come pretty much predictable.

That's why Xabi Alonso's side has not been able to see the similar kind of success they had in the last season. I think if the same tactics have been used by the same coach with a great squad like Real Madrid or Manchester City, he would have still found success because the squad is much better and the depth is great. I think we'll also have to move on from this club and look at Real Madrid.

Xabi's scheme, which seems to be the same in every match, makes this a little easy for opponents to anticipate. Last season they were quite superior because maybe there was a situation where their confidence was more awake but for this season even with the same scheme and the majority of the same players as before but the difference is the pressure now that makes Leverkusen a little faltered in the paraphrase.

Although it cannot be denied that until now they have only suffered 1 defeat but 4 draws in the last 5 matches in the Bundesliga make it even more difficult for them to catch up with points especially when looking at the opponents faced actually it can be enough to be used as 3 points for them but instead only 1 point is owned.

Xabi needs to work more now if he still wants to keep trying but it seems that this season too Xabi wants to hone his skills to be more sensitive in matters of rotation and balance of players because if in the end Xabi's focus is only on the Bundesliga, maybe now he can play better, it's just that Xabi wants to be like before with the Champions League as a new target which is a problem that is actually very difficult for clubs with the quality of players who are still below the big clubs and regulars in the Champions League.

If you can't find Dortmund's home and away results so far this season, I've provided screenshots below. Obviously, so far this season Dortmund have done very well at home in all competitions, but I don't know whether that's a record or not. Because I think, it looks like Dortmund might have had good results too in previous seasons when they were consistently in secondplace. But yes, it doesn't matter about the record because of course, the most important thing is about Nuri Sahin who must be able to  make Dortmund in a better position.  Because basically Nuri Sahin is not a new person in Dortmund, at least Nuri Sahin was a former Dortmund player in the past and also, Nuri Sahin also previously served as Dortmund's assistant coach. Thus,  it is indeed a must for Nuri Sahin to be able to make Dortmund strong again in the top four  of the Bundesliga standings.

However, in such situations, elite clubs are often hesitant to release star players on international duty due to the high risk of injury upon their return.

Because that is what a coach and team owner are worried about. Not only a few and many important players return to their respective teams with injuries and as a coach it will certainly be more complicated to have to find the right replacement for players or lose their best performance. So some top teams usually have many options when the transfer market opens, they are looking for new players who have quality talent to be substitutes when the main players are injured.

One of the painful mysteries of players getting injured when playing for their national teams is that in most cases, it's their clubs that takes the responsibility of taking care of the injured players even when the injuries does happen when they weren't playing for the clubs and that's why you see some elite clubs devicing means to stop their players from joining the national teams especially when they think the games to be played aren't too important.
That being said, you can't stop players from representing their countries in few games when they're fit so it's important that national team coaches and club managers works together when making such decisions.

Although Dortmund still seems to have a chance to enter the top four, it doesn't seem easy at all because the next opponent is Freiburg who also still has the ambition to compete to enter the top four. The points gap is still very close like that, of course it will make the competition more difficult because each team will also do their best to be in a better  position in the standings. Interestingly, Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt seem to be able to create a safe points gap with the teams below them, because teams like Bayer Leverkusen who are currently in fourth place are experiencing inconsistency so that they get a fairly wide points gap with Eintracht Frankfurt and also Leipzig who are in second and third positions.

The good thing is the point difference between four teams from the fourth position to the 7th is only one. And that's where I think Dortmund has the opportunity to get into the top four positions. The problem is Dortmund has been the most inconsistent. Literally winning one then losing one then winning one then losing one.  They are literally consistently inconsistent. That kind of performance is definitely not going to be enough for them to reach the top four positions when it comes. They will have to improve their performance very quickly. And right now they are still in a good situation as I said because the point difference is low. If they do not start performing well quickly and the other teams start performing well, it is going to be a problem for them. At that time it might be very hard for them to actually overcome the odds

Bayern Munich fell short of expectations, I can only say this. Borussia Dortmund lost the game against Barcelona later. This issue is still being criticized. If that surprise had not happened, Dortmund would not have had such bad scores. If we talk about the Bundesliga, it is a very bad season for Borussia Dortmund. Bayern Munich will definitely take over the leadership and become champions by the end of the season.

That being said, you can't stop players from representing their countries in few games when they're fit so it's important that national team coaches and club managers works together when making such decisions.

The main reason for that is the past. In the past these players were going to their national teams for pride reasons, and they were representing their nation and they were proud to do that and it would be unwise for any team to say no. Because if a team said no, then other teams would just say "we will allow you to do that" and that's what happened.

Some teams decided to not let their players play in international games, and other teams grabbed their players after the contract ran out, and seeing this, every team fell in line with it and just let them do whatever they want. If you do it now, like not let it, then same would happen and that is why for the past 40+ years, nothing has changed, even if they are injured, you take that risk when signing a contract.

The post I responded to said that seven won games in a streak is a record for Borussia Dortmund, which means they have never done that before. But that if wrong and that is why I asked for the source. Winning seven homes games while not really winning anything away from home has never won any team a title and is definitely insufficient for a team that wants to compete for the trophy.

I think that winning at home in the Dortmund stadium is not all that hard. That's where the fans do the job and not the coach. Nuri Sahin has no real character or personality. He looks like a little boy and I doubt that the Dortmund players can take his as seriously as they should and would if he were a top coach.

This new format in the UEFA Champions League comes with full surprise, we've watch how these clubs performance played down and I must say, I'm impressed with most of these elite clubs performance and not also impressed with the current performance of other clubs. This is not just some random league but a tournament for Champions, consisting of the best clubs in Europe, coming out to play their very best to win the UEFA trophy. Real Madrid comes first on the list because they've good records towards winning the title but that odds have been questionable, not good enough watching their performance. There's also Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Manchester City, let's see how everything plays out.

Well it's good that you actually gave credit to Mainz because I have seen cases in football even the opponent has one or two red card and was still able to withstand if not even outplay the team which is complete but it rarely happens but we can't rule out that possiblity.

Dortmund this season is something else , if it's the goals scoring they are actually not doing bad but when it comes to conceiving goals thats where the problem is and it's also same thing with Bayer Leverkusen as they can hardly keep a clean sheet in a game they were to score a goal.

You are right Mainz deserves credit for their win. In football it is not always easy for team to win when they have fewer players on field because of red cards. But sometimes it happens. Mainz played well and won. Dortmund is having tough season. Their problem is not scoring goals they are doing okay with that. Problem is letting in too many goals. Bayer Leverkusen has same issue. They struggle to keep other team from scoring. When they score goals they often let in goals too. Both Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen need to work on their defense. They need to find ways to stop other team from scoring.

FSV Mainz 05 football full strength team did 3 goals in this match and opponent team did only 1 goal in this match . The attackers of FSV Mainz 05 team are powerful and they always try to hit and did goals. Lee did goal at 36 minutes of the match and after that one more player did goal at 48 minutes and last goal was done by Nebel and he did at 54 minutes and his team was winner after his goal . The shots of that team were more in number and that were 13 and 9 were on target and possession percentage was 53 percent and possession of opponent team was  47 percent.But the difference of both teams passes was not high and passes of  Mainz team were   478  and against team did 442 .

It is quite clear that the new format of the Champions League has changed the inclination of the new color to the competition and added colors to every match. Even if some German teams may not have offered some better performances, the fighting spirit being seen is not bad at all. Dortmund has had a small poor time within this season and their performance has been unpredictable but I think they are capable of more. This stout-hearted team has remained a constant factor in the Bundesliga and there is every likelihood they will continue so till the completion of the season.

Lol I also don't understand why only getting 7 wins is already called a record when it is a normal result for a team like Dortmund, even better than them like Bayern who won 8 in the Bundesliga. This could be called a record if Dortmund is able to win the title this season under Nuri Sahin but seeing Dortmund's performance this season in the Bundesliga I doubt this club can achieve it, Dortmund has disappointed many times with its inconsistent performance this season including in yesterday's match against Mainz Dortmund struggled to win.

Do you think Dortmund can win the Bundesliga title this season? We have seen erratic performances from Dortmund since the start of the season. And right now Dortmund is seventh in the points table. Dortmund is 10 points behind Bayern Munich. I don't think Dortmund will be able to dominate the Bundesliga this season.

We saw a terrible performance from Dortmund against Mianz. The Mainz team is not that strong. And it was Mainz's third win of the season. Dortmund's players performed very badly in this match. Dortmund players managed to make only 2 shots in the entire match. Dortmund has no chance to be in the top four of the table if they perform so badly.
