By Killer7 Go To PostThought Hakimi went back to Madrid. Just buy Darmian if he doesn't stay..Hummels and Akanji are gonna be starters, but Hummels picked up a small knock and is sitting out today.
Do lile the look of Akanji. Is Hummels expected to be a back up for these two?
Sancho's been off it in this game.
Zagadou will be the back up, but he missed a few days out, so Toprak is starting today.
Sancho is really bad today. You can see that both teams are still in their preseason. Alot of unecessary mistakes, bad timing and generally some players looking tired.
Hakimi was loaned for two seasons. Pretty sure we would rather play Morey without any senior experience than letting Darmian getting any time on the pitch.
By MushForBrains Go To PostYou only have like 6 leagues active?
Had to match it to my processor at the time.
When I start FM, that is my career, I don't start a new save.
By Pennywise Go To PostHummels and Akanji are gonna be starters, but Hummels picked up a small knock and is sitting out today.My guess is they'll see him as the Carvajal replacement/alternative.

Bayern would look good if they can get Sane over the line. No Gnabry today too..
What a goal
By Killer7 Go To PostIf we sign Dybala and Fernandes there might be the small possibility that Pogba leaves. But one signing in just won't cut it.
Feel like there could be something in this Pogba absence. And not in an announcement video sense.
By Killer7 Go To PostMy guess is they'll see him as the Carvajal replacement/alternative.They got zero depth.
Bayern would look good if they can get Sane over the line. No Gnabry today too..
What a goal
Even with Sane they would only have 3 decent wingers. Also missing a replacement for Thiago and for their LB/RB. Still alot of spots they've gotta fill.
Only exception is the striker, because Lewandowski is never injured.
By MushForBrains Go To PostWhy? We have Auba-Laca-Pepe, we have some decent youths to fill in the attacking roles, we still have Ozil, Iwobi and miki whether we like it or not.because those last 3 you said are close to useless
We need defense.
bringing coutihno would be a good move
By Cleff Go To PostIf we sign Dybala andwhen you sign Dybala
By Killer7 Go To PostThought Hakimi went back to Madrid. Just buy Darmian if he doesn't stay..Watzke said he'd try everything to make Hakimi stay when he was on fire in the first half of last season. 2nd half of the season showed (at least to me) that we shouldn't break the bank for Hakimi, though. Not sure what Madrid is gonna do next year, though. If they are willing to sell, I think we'll certainly be interested.
Do lile the look of Akanji. Is Hummels expected to be a back up for these two?
Toprak was behind Weigl (a DM) in the CB pecking order last season, no way he's gonna start ahead of Hummels and Akanji lol
By inky Go To PostIf Poggers goes, give me SMS too.when Poggers goes
By Pennywise Go To PostThey got zero depth.Have no idea what their sub players are like. Didn't they sign Pavard and that Atletico lad for the defence?
Even with Sane they would only have 3 decent wingers. Also missing a replacement for Thiago and for their LB/RB. Still alot of spots they've gotta fill.

How did that not go in lol

Bet Bayern wish they could have signed Reus
By Killer7 Go To PostHave no idea what their sub players are like. Didn't they sign Pavard and that Atletico lad for the defence?Hernandez from Atletico is still coming back from an injury. Parvard is there, but it would be a stupid idea to let him play RB replacement. He's a CB and also needs to get in form. The club he came from got relegated last season.
How did that not go in lol
They got no one else, except for youngsters and a few others that shouldn't even make the bench. Parvard is on the bench, but also Davies, Johansson, Renato Sanches, Singh, Arp. Sanches is shit, Singh is a PR player from India. Arp got signed for whatever reason, but he should be nowhere near that team tbh.
By Pennywise Go To PostThey got zero depth.It's especially weird when you consider that Coman, Thiago or Tolisso are also incredibly injury prone.
Even with Sane they would only have 3 decent wingers. Also missing a replacement for Thiago and for their LB/RB. Still alot of spots they've gotta fill.
Only exception is the striker, because Lewandowski is never injured.
But Bayern is gonna Bayern I guess. Wouldn't be surprised if they played Arp on the wing and he'd score 10+ goals
By Xpike Go To Postbecause those last 3 you said are close to uselessI agree that they are but they're still on the books, it makes sense to just have 500K in wages just sit on the bench. Anyways, this is all nonsense until a reliable source actually reports on it.
bringing coutihno would be a good move
By Milchmonster Go To PostIt's especially weird when you consider that Coman, Thiago or Tolisso are also incredibly injury prone.I don't understand them at all. Arp should have been loaned out already to play the preseason with his loan club. They could have easily brought in a couple of signings that aren't that expensive, yet fill in the necessary spots. Decent wingers are easy to get, same goes for the CM position.

By Killer7 Go To PostSounds like Toprak would be a perfext Mustafi replacement lolToprak is actually an okay defender. Didn't work out in our shit season 2 years ago (for which you can't blame him) and Favre doesn't rate him/think he fits his idea of football. It'd be the best for him to move on but at least he's trying and not playing golf full time
Bet Bayern wish they could have signed Reus
By inky Go To PostEven the old games have a ton of processing bloat surprisingly.Ah got it. I'll try that, cause my save is chuuuuuggging.
It does cut a little, I actually run like 12 leagues atm, but a nice trick you can do is to add one / remove one league before the end of the season. That way the new league generates fresh regens who are usually cheap, but with ready made top ratings for the rest of the cpu teams to buy.

He's not getting loud and I'm sure he'll teach Balerdi and big Zag.
Really great goal. Time to extend with Guerreiro.

I have no idea, either. But Hoeneß has completely lost his mind in the last year or so. Maybe it's as easy as that. Wouldn't be surprised if the players he said Bayern had "already for sure" were Sane and Brandt/Havertz and now they have no idea what to do.
By Killer7 Go To PostDeadly counter.I think Dembele money is a good starting point.
How much for Sancho
How are Bayern already such shit cunts in pre season
Fucking hell, fuck off
Edit:
Kimmich is fucking complaining? What the hell at this shit club

By Milchmonster Go To PostBrazzo is gonna BrazzoGenuinely think Dortmund could ask for more. Especially any of the PL teams.

Do they VAR off the field actions too?
By Hitch Go To PostScenes when Sancho goes back to City to replace SaneI'll blame horse like always
By Hitch Go To PostTAAStuggled to handle insigne. Overrated
By Milchmonster Go To PostBrazzo is gonna BrazzoIt was fucking stupid. All those years they're talking about their filled bank account. This didn't help them one bit as the interest rates are shit anyway. Prices have been rising year after year for quality players. All that shit with giving Ribery/Robben a proper goodbye was also bullshit. Could have also done that with a few replacements already.

Quite risky to let a young coach like Kovac go into the season with a barebones team last year.
By Killer7 Go To PostGenuinely think Dortmund could ask for more. Especially any of the PL teams.He said starting point :P
Do they VAR off the field actions too?
Yes VAR is also viewing stuff off the field. Should have been a red, but VAR is terrible again.
By Killer7 Go To PostGenuinely think Dortmund could ask for more. Especially any of the PL teams.That's why I said starting point lol. But yeah, pretty sure another 150m would also do for Sancho.
Do they VAR off the field actions too?
VAR checked it and said no red card. In preseason. Wat

For years, they've been getting away with signing the best players in the Bundesliga and having a lot of hit and miss from players outside while being lucky getting players like Lahm, Schweine, Alaba Müller from the youth team. Remember when Rummenigge said they liked Mandzukic (not sure if it was him) at a Euro game and decided to sign him, completely missing that he'd been at Wolfsburg for a year or two? I genuinely think that's how their scouting works.

By Hitch Go To PostI feel like I've been tricked into pressing the play buttonThought I was the only one
By Killer7 Go To PostWas Weigl the lad Pep wanted?I dunno if it was true. I know that Tuchel wanted him as PSG, but FFP and a new director made matters more complicated (that's why they didn't sign Guerreiro, despite being really interested for quite some time).
Come replace Matic pls.
He still is a candidate to leave us, if a club shows up that would interest him and would pay up.

I genuinely think that's how their scouting works.I know that's not their strongest point. That's why they wanted Mislintat at one point. Still, the scouting is nothing in comparsion with the decisions lately.
They also waited over 10 years until they realized that their youth structure and academy is total shit. That will take time until they finally get decent youth players again. Meanwhile, other clubs produce talent on a regular basis.
Take away from today: if I was a player for BVB, I'd be banned for life for punching Bayern players in the mouth. Ribery and Rafinha are gone and now Kimmich is cunting up.
