Here are some more Bundesliga statistics from the current season, since we don't have any ongoing matches right now:

David Alaba is the player with the highest carry distance according to Opta statistics. He is followed by Dayot Upamecano, Joshua Kimmich, Archraf Hakimi and Amine Harit.

David Alaba carried the ball a league-high 6.4 kilometres in the current Bundesliga campaign. [Opta]

The German newspaper Bild just reported that the DFL plans to resume the current season either on the 2nd or 9th of May. The Kicker is also reporting on the matter. The currently schedule could look like this:(...)

There is also another issue and that is why the models look for a June ending of the season: player contracts. Those player contracts always expire at June 30th, so if the season carries on into July etc., some more problems arise. This is of course manageable (by giving out short-term contracts), but probably not what the teams want to deal with. And some players already have new contracts with other teams beginning July 1st. Will some teams have to play without these players ? What happens in case of injury ? Lots of domino effects and things to consider.....

Well Germany is a little fortunate considering the fact that they haven't had so many fatalities compared to Italy or Spain despite having a relatively high number of confirmed cases but i think the decision to start of training by some clubs has been rushed. Why not wait until things clear up first?
The cessation of the competition certainly makes a number of clubs also choose to take time off training, including the defending champion, Bayern Munchen.

But after two weeks of stopping all activities, the club has just confirmed that Robert Lewandowski et al will return to hold training starting Monday, April 6, 2020.

That was not without reason, because the club asked not to be attended by the audience.  This is certainly based on the policy of the local authority.

Confirmed!
According the last news from espn Several Bundesliga clubs are set to return to training on Monday in small groups amid uncertainty when the league will resume. I expect the Bundesliga starting first before other professional leagues such as serie A Germany got a better situation

Germany government determinantly operates massive testing. They focus on testing, testing , and testing so there are high detected positive cases but it help Germany discover them sooner and isolate them sooner. In the run with the virus, pace and scale of responses are important. And in reality it shows some good epidemic control measures and results of Germany.

If there is a national league in Europe reopen, Bundesliga might be the first one.

There is one way to get out of this and it has to be made to actually fix all of this issue and also keep everyone safe and healthy as well. Get a new contract. Face that this season could be cancelled and if you ask me SHOULD be cancelled, keep that in pocket and teams, team owners, players, TV right owners, sponsors and basically everyone involved who makes money from football or pays money to football should get together.

In that meeting there should be some sort of agreements that will stretch the next years and also help the people who paid, for example TV rights owners should be given one more year for a lot cheaper for next year, or just +1 year to their current contract, people who sponsored teams or jerseys and so forth should be given a huge discount on another year. That way maybe this year was bad but they will get a cheaper second year and that way they could let go off players and at least players can stay healthy and not risk their lives.

Guys can you please focus on the German Bundesliga? Seriously, the president of Ghana has absolutely nothing to do with German football. If you wanna discuss random statements of politicians concerning the Covid-19 pandemic please do that, but open another thread! This is not the right place. I will keep reporting these posts and I am happy that most of the stuff I recently reported got deleted by our mods.



So, let's please talk about the Bundesliga again:

The German newspaper Bild just reported that the DFL plans to resume the current season either on the 2nd or 9th of May. The Kicker is also reporting on the matter. The currently schedule could look like this:

Another important news of the day: One of the long-time strikers of the Bundesliga will stay in the league. Thomas Mueller just extended his contract at FC Bayern until 2023.

Great news for the Bundesliga in my opinion, since there were rumors that this world-class player could move to the Premier League or the La Liga. I am happy that he is staying in the league.

Bayern Munich were among a number of Bundesliga clubs to return to training for the first time since the campaign was halted by the coronavirus pandemic.

The champions trained in groups of five but without any contact, as did Borussia Monchengladbach and Wolfsburg.

I don't see the need to rush the team back to training during this pandemic. The country may have not been able to prevent a heavy impact, but still the health and the safety of the players should come first ahead of keeping them fit or restarting the league.
Ensuring socal distancing is a good step, but the virus can still be transmitted through droplets and contaminated surfaces.
In my opinion; football can wait.

Sport can wait that's correct, but sport has long been more about money than sport itself. There is a lot of pressure from the TV contracts etc.
It will be exciting if it goes on, probably with ghost games, even if I think nothing of sports without spectators.
Yeah there's a lot of scenarios to be prepared to anticipate the league to come back under strict surveillance,  that's why some clubs start the training session.

I'm more to hold/end the season rather than to continue even with some strict control or so.
Economies could die and back up , lives not.

It’s not really just football, entire economies are going to collapse if we don’t try to get back to some level of normal soon. At some point you have to lessen the restrictions, people are going to die but more will die if only ‘essential workers’ are allowed to work. Families are going to go hungry & not be able to afford a roof over their heads.

I give this another month max before governments are forced to lessen restrictions & try to get their economies working again.

Things look not so good for the moment regarding the spread of the virus.We may have to wait until end of August or early September before we have fully recovered from it.If the training is conducted following World Health Organization advices there is nothing wrong to go training because the players all have personal cars and when in training they will keep the distance from each other.
How to keep social distancing when players are in trainings? It is unrealistic. I thought this graph makes sense. When the first wave of outbreak is controlled, and the curve flattens out, that result in social distancing will be lessened but after that we will see another wave of outbreak with maybe lower peak. And things will keep going on, bottom, lessen, peak, etc.

I think if players are allowed to go training, then playing in closed stadiums, they must be obeyed strict quarantine rules that are different from locals. I don't believe players will accept stricter quarantine rules on them.
Check out this graph from JP Morgan:


This is based partially on the second wave emerging in China. Are we going to keep doing these lockdowns every couple of months until a vaccine arrives?

That is not true. Bremen are allowed to train in small groups. Also Hamburg and Hannover96. Money rulez.

Yes, correct. Initially they were not allowed, but they got a derogation from the Senate. This virus brings up some weird situations, where a football team needs permission from authorities to do some training. But whether Bremen trains or not, shouldn't make much of a difference, they will relegate anyway. Though I am still hoping for a relegation playoff between Hamburg and Bremen, should be fun Grin

Fortunate? I don't think so. Germany has a very strong health facilities nationwide and they have one of the best Insitute on virus, Robert Koch. The nation has one of the best nationwide ICU facilities and their approach to do massive test help to flat out the curve of death tolls. More assymptomatic and mild cases detected via massive test, the lower fatality rate will be. That is what we have in Germany.

From reports, I also see Germany has their biggest infected population is much younger than in Italy's so it is their luck, I agree. We know the virus is more dangerous to the elderly and in Italy, more than 40% of death tolls come from the age group of 80 - 89 and if we count for the age groups from 60 and above, the percent will be higher than 80% of all death tolls. That's terrible.

There emerged discussions regarding that today, because some teams complain about an unfair unadvantage. A team like Bremen for example is not allowed to train, because each of the 16 states in Germany can make their own decision as to whether teams are allowed to train (in small groups) or not. And the state of Bremen does not allow it - federalism can be good and bad Grin
