Schalke took first place after their 2-1 win yesterday.

No they haven't.

[Amblève. 4,995]

They're in the second place.

No they haven't.

Oops, yes my bad. They are still second on goal difference. Sorry.

PS: I think an admin should pin this thread in the Football Banter section just like the Serie A and La Liga threads.

Bayern sitting nicely on the top of the table with that win over Koln despite going down to ten men in the first half. They are looking more like champions by the week.

Bayern getting humped 2-0 by Monchengladbach atm, into the 2nd half now 50 mins. This monchen(fuck have i really gotta write that again)gladbach team look pretty good i must say. First goal was a shocking howler from Neuer but the 2nd was nice. Could be more tbh.

Not a good start at all of the second half of the season by Bayern. Their form has been so inconsistant this season despite having what is, in my opinion, the fourth most powerful squad in Europe.

Both Dortmund and Shalke could tie with bayern on points if they win their respective matches against Hamburg and Stuttgart.

Bayern lead Wolfsburg, Gomez. 60'

How is the Bundesliga these days? In terms of football pace, style and flare? Is it open or tactical?

I think it's the best, most complete, most competitive league in Europe currently. Pace, physicality, tactical diversity ... it's got something for everyone.

Nice, thinking about starting to follow it. Beats the predictability of La Liga & co.

I watched the last game of Hamburg vs Dortmund and only saw Bruma in the team.

Any big follower of Hamburg can tell me what happen to other ex-Chelsea players?

Rajko, Mancienne, Tore, and Sala?

It lacks world-class players to be the best imo, filled with great potential throughout though, but it is a very enjoyable league. I have been following the league more and more and it's very entertaining.

If only Dortmund didn't lose Sahin.. they could've become a top team with Reus joining in the summer.

True but then the real world class players can be found primarily in Spain's top 2, and a handful scattered in England and Italy. Bayern have some star names but the good thing about the Bundesliga is that almost every other club has a strong squad without relying on outstanding individual ability. It makes the competition there progressive where other clubs challenge on their intrinsic abilities rather than because the top team losing it's quality, like it's happened in England.

If only Dortmund didn't lose Sahin.. they could've become a top team with Reus joining in the summer.

Tell me about it, Nuri is BVB through and through. Real aren't even playing him ffs.

Rajkovic was very good.

I think he will take over Bruma, as I see Rajko much better then Bruma.
