In my opinion the distance between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund is too large for the time being. It is not like they only need two new players and can compete for the title. Who knows maybe the new coach can improve the team, but I doubt it the same way I doubt that Kompany can improve the Bayern team. Letting Sahin take over and letting Terzic go doesn't make too much sense to me, but it was said that it was Terzic's desire to leave the club. That obviously changes a couple of things, but I think Sahin is even more of an experiment than Kompany is for Bayern. Very doubtful and I believe that Leverkusen will be once again the competitor number 1 for Bayern.

Did you think so?. Because to me, I think Dortmund are strengthening the team not only to be a competitor to Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga alone; they still want to be the winner of the Bundesliga title next season, and there is also Bayern Leverkusen, who are also the strongest team in the Bundesliga right now, and that is why I’m still thinking the Bundesliga will be a very tough competition next season. However, Dortmund can also strengthen their squad ahead of the Champions League competition next season.

They may think of the same thing that may happen to them like last season, so they will want to strengthen the squad before the season starts so they can do more than they did last season, but as of the Bundesliga, Bayern Leverkusen are still going to be at the top because Bayern Munich are still going to start afresh due to the coach's change. They need to get used to the new strategy that he will use for them.

I'm actually finding this signing really interesting, there's something I have known with Dortmund over the years and that's with them not buy players so much rather they do the selling because they usually have this strategy that helps them build players to be really good a s they later end up selling them off to other teams at bigger offers, which gets the team to making more money even if they don't get to win the trophy. This is now giving a notion that Dortmund may be interested in trophies this season and so in other to get more goals that will help them get to the point they will be able to win at least one trophy, goals will be a huge advantage for them and so they got a good investment in their attacking force to help them build strength to get goals.

Bayern offered 90 million for Xavi Simons, this is a lot of money, I remember how they reluctantly and for a long time bargained for Kane and eventually paid 100 million, and now they are so easily offering that kind of money for Xavi Simons. It looks like Tuchel could count on very good funding in the off-season. And it seems that PSG is also happy with this, Xavi Simons spent the first season on loan in Leipzig and showed himself very well, now he can also stay in the Bundesliga, only in Bayern again on loan with only an option to buy, it looks like this deal could will take place.

Well this issue of team is certainly looking for atleast for teams in the German bundesLiga, almost everyone is actually busy on the transfer market trying to strengthen their teams especially Bayern Munich and Vincent kompany, I really can't wait to see how they performed and also the reigning champions of league too, I think this new season is going to be hard on Leverkusen as most teams won't actually take them for granted anymore.

I do believe that it is going to end up with something that will be a little different and confused, if we are talking about something that would not be all that simple, we could definitely cause a lot of trouble for people, and won't be that easy to handle at all.

We should try to focus on what to do and how to get better, it is not going to be easy, and it is going to take some time, we need to just focus on how to get better, and for that to mean something we need to remember that things aren't always that easy. I know that it will take a while, and I know that it won't be all that simple, but we could make this work one way or another, it's just not that simple.

Of course this won't be simple, because we are talking about something that takes time, but if Bayern could get better defenders, they should do that, Kane can't bring them a title all by himself, proven at Spurs. He scored good enough, if there were any doubts about that transfer, I am sure that all of them are gone now, everyone believes that he fits very well with the team. I also think that they should take another look at their wings too, while they look good, they are not producing a lot like expected from them.

Dortmund continues to strengthen the team, it’s a pity that they were left without Terzic, but apparently he played his role in this team. All of Dortmund's new transfers look very good as always, and this is not surprising, they have long been famous for this. But I suspect that they are doing this not with the aim of trying to become a competitor to Bayern in the Bundesliga, but as part of their strategy, when after a season several of their new acquisitions were able to fulfill their potential and will be sold to other teams.

The signing of Serhou Guirassy would be a fitting addition to Dortmund front line next season, previously the deal between Dortmund and Serhou Guirassy was almost canceled after Serhou Guirassy got injured so that Dortmund started to rethink signing Serhou Guirassy, Guirassy performance last season was a consideration for Dortmund to sign him and they were very lucky  to get a striker who had scored 30 goals last season for just a very cheap price compared to other top strikers at the moment, Guirassy ability cannot be doubted in terms of scoring goals, so I think Dortmund next season will have a very dangerous attacking line and is ready to compete with Munich in the Bundesliga title race, at the moment we have not seen any possibility that Haller and also Fulkrug will leave Dortmund so we can say that Nuri Sahin will probably try to provide opportunities for the three of them to compete in the dortmund Front line next season as main striker.

You are not wrong either because a professional squad cannot be built without a good coach to handle the affairs of the team perfectly. Signing all the best players in the world and you don’t have a good technique you can approach them with will make it hard for the team to prevail amongst others. This same thing happened in PSG when they had all the best players they needed but still fail to make it far in the champions league and got eliminated earlier than expected. The zeal of every coach by signing new big players is to make the team better but anything can happen depending on the strategy you employ to get it.


Bayern Munich’s fate is still tied to the coach and if the coach happen not to bring the best out of the team, it will all be work in vain with all the players he has on board now and those coming to join the club recently brought in by them. The Bundesliga is going to be a very interesting one next season and I believe all clubs are preparing fervently for it and not want to be the least prepared team.

In frinedlies matches,

We saw match of Dortmund football against Erzgebirge Aue football team and we saw great competition in this match but I want 3rd goal of the match but that could not happen . All players of both teams struggled well and both team got 1-1 point and Benkara did first goal for the team  and he did first goal at the 20 minutes of match . Then Dortmund team could not defend well and Erzgebirge Aue team got opportunity and they got benefit from that  opportunity. Seitz did second of the  match and first goal for the team. The stat of Dortmund team was excellent and they were best in all things and but are unlucky because they deserve win if match was decided on penalties.

I agree that Serhou Guirassy showed an impressive very good performance last season and that Dortmund was very lucky as there was a few other Europe Top Clubs to get Guirassy.
Even i am a big fan about Füllkrug and Haller i guess that one of them will be leaving the Club.
Donyell Malen and Guirassy together can be very good combination for Dortmund to get fast forward on the field.

But it is still a question of scoring the right goals at the right time. I know he scored lots of important goals in the Bundesliga, but the decisive goals are mostly in the other competitions, like the DFB Pokal and especially the Champions League or like recently, in the European Championship. It's important to score in general, but it doesn't really matter whether you score 30 or 40 goals in the Bundesliga. The fact that he scored like a machine in the Bundesliga and they still lost the title the way they did is remarkable. Ultimately, top strikers are mostly measured by the goals they score in the most important games.

There was an analysis by "The Economist" and they produced some metrics comparing Ronaldo and Messi. They distributed importance among all goals scored. Like more points for the first goal in a Champions League semifinal than the second, third, fourth and whether the goal was decisive or not. Pretty interesting and Messi outplayed Ronaldo there by quite a bit. Doesn't mean Ronaldo didn't score important goals, he did and certainly tons of them. But still Messi's goals were more important overall. Same counts for Harry Kane. People are hoping for his goals when it counts.

Any couch can buy any talented player as far as they are mean to buy a player because from the look of it is not all clubs that actually have the money to buy the desired player. it is always a thing of joy when the management is able to buy a very supportive player to their club, and from the look of things Kompany is making serious preparations for next season with all preparation. I don’t see Bayern Munich improving next season even with Kompany  preparation. I hope all efforts not be lost because if Bayern Munich do not achieve anything this season then I don’t think they longer have anything to offer.


If wishes Were  horses I know by now a lot of coaches will want to have all the best players in there club And it does not work that way if you want a good player, you must spend money to acquired them. This season Is going to be different because the way the German clubs are making preparations I don’t think even Bayern Will go far Because of what is happening currently.

To be honest, when I first saw the report that Borussia Dortmund were seriously negotiating with Stuttgart in other to sign Serhou Guirassy, I was very surprised not because the Guinea international doesn't worth the chase from Dortmund but because I thought Borussia Dortmund already have world class strikers in Niklas Fullkrug Sebastian Haller. Donyell Malen like you rightly said mostly operates from the wing but for Fullkrug and Haller, they're all top 9 strikers.
Looking at how impressive Serhou Guirassy was last season, I think it was one of the major reasons Borussia Dortmund went for him which I think is a good move as they try to strengthen the team however, I don't see the club retain Sebastian Haller and Niklas Fullkrug alongside their new striker.

This is a pretty good decision for Dortmund because last season even though they played very well and even reached the Champions League final, they still lack strikers, especially for a targetman and with the arrival of Serhou Guirassy, of course this will make Dortmund more free for attacking problems, especially we know that Dortmund's attacking midfielders and wingers can actually still play well and with Serhou Guirassy as a targetman, of course this will be a very good thing for Dortmund next season.

Serhou Guirassy was a pretty good player last season but it's just that this is not just one season he played well especially with Dortmund, which incidentally is a subscription to the Champions League and a subscription to a competitor for the championship, hopefully Serhou Guirassy's performance can be better than the previous season and not have problems adapting to Dortmund.

Niclas Fullkrug is a different player striker type as Sebastian Haller and Donyell Malen are.
I guess that maybe Sebastian Haller or Donyell Malen will be leave Dortmund but on the other side you need players for the whole season.
Its possible that that all players will be stay and that looking for a tactical playing with different types of players.
But Guirassy is an improvement for Dortmund.

Serhou Guirassy was at his best level last season with Stuttgard, he was able to score 28 goals in his 28 matches. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury which stopped him from competing closely with Kane as top scorer. however, his performance while defending Stuttgart has attracted the attention of several big European clubs. It's just that, only Dortmund are really serious about this Guinean international player. Well, it was very interesting when Dortmund recruited him. because, actually, Dortmund has several of the same strikers as Guirassy. yeah, the performance of Sebastian Haller and Niclas Fullkrug couldn't be relied on by Edin Terzic at that time. As for Donyell Malen, he is actually better at being placed in the winger position than the other two strikers. In fact, last season Malen only started 21 times.

Interestingly, Guirassy's performance is highly anticipated with Dortmund, considering that he should be able to perform better with the BVB squad. Currently, Dortmund has several names in the front line, but it seems that the future of Sebastian Haller and Niclas Fullkrug is very doubtful. I haven't read anything about these two players, but it looks like Serhou Guirassy will play a role in replacing them both in the pure striker position. Let's just see Dortmund's performance first before speculating too far, especially as Nuri Sahin's performance has not proven impressive in managing Borussia Dortmund.

Interestingly Leverkusen doesn't have much challenges around their attack line but strengthening it isn't a bad idea, rather I see it as a conscious move to eliminating every possible Chances of having mistakes made or any slack arising from the fact that a player becomes absent at any point or has got a reason not to be optimal, a good and perfect substitute will always be available. Knowing whats ahead in the new season, it's become very necessary for Leverkusen to put in place every measure to still remain at the top of their game, I was thinking before now it will be much better to continue with the players they have got already since before now but then on a second taught, it's not a bad idea still strengthening the squash with some more good players, with their team spirit of he gets to blend in just fine without having to spend more times, I believe its going to be a very good season at Leverkusen.

Stuttgart put on an amazing season. Second place in the Bundesliga - that is enormous! The large clubs arrived naturally sniffing around. You lose talents like Ito, Anton, Guirassy; that will be difficult. Folks, this is the cost of success. These days, they are savvy business - bringing in a lot of cheap defenders. Demirovic also? Last season, 15 goals, 10 assists; not poor. Still, he has great shoes to occupy. They paid €21 million for him, hence there is pressure. No question, he has to improve his game. The true test is how cohesively these fresh guys mix. Can they discover the same enchantment as in past seasons? Though its a risk, hey, thats football. I will be keenly observing to see how it turns out.

Such clubs need more money to keep it running so that is why they have to sell their top players. But replacing a goal scorer like Guirassy is not an easy one to do. He had 15 goals and 10 assists last seas amidst his injury but very impressive. The Anton deal i still think it is a good one for the team.

When you see someone who understand the nature of his job what you expect. Kompany knows what he is doing and of course the next season will be a better one for them. Last season they had to adapt with the new players and see what the outcome will be. But this season they have exactly what they need to win the Bundelsiga.
