Goetze has the worst advisors. Volker Struth is an embarrassment. Mario should get taken away access to the internet, certainly to social media. I feel sorry for the kid.
Crazy that a player of that calibre is already being told he's out - seems a little premature? What do you think he'll do with the older guard (Robben and Ribery)?
Rummenigge yesterday said that Ancelotti pressed for the Sanches transfer, so that's one spot in the central midfield. Add Müller, Vidal, Martinez, Thiago, Kimmich and Alonso just for the central midfield and you can see why Götze would struggle under Ancelotti, especially as he prefers playing with two 8s instead of a 10. We also have Ribery, Robben, Costa and Coman, our midfield is just freakin sick and it will be very tough to satisfy every player. Think Robben and Ribery will be starters if healthy, at least for one more year.
German media saying Liverpool has called Bayern and are the most likely destination atm. Can't rule out Dortmund though.
He should go to New Dortmund, aka Liverpool. Promise him the Captaincy in 3 years when he's in his prime if you have to. Then he can listen to the best pre-game song ever every week.
Dembele to Dortmund. That's a great signing. Very different players of course, but arguably a more talented prospect compared to Sanches imo. If the reports of 15m is true, I just can't understand why he goes for so little compared to potentially 80m for Sanches. The portuguese clubs know how to get paid!
See reports of possible 15m upfront and 37min bonuses for a maximum of 52m for Dembele now. Makes more sense. I think this kid will be a star though. Such young players are always a gamble, but a great get for Dortmund I think.
So weird that Benitez signed on to a sinking ship... it was inevitable that team was headed for the Championship. I wonder if Benitez jumps ship now. His stock must have fallen so far to settle for Newcastle.
Big weekend around the world. Barcelona and Real Madrid battling for La Liga championship on the last day of the season. The Premier League ends their season tomorrow morning. Even in Mexico, the Liga MX playoffs just started and they have some great matchups with big rivalries like El Clasico Regiomontano tonight between Rayados de Monterrey vs. Tigres UANL and also El Super Clasico on Sunday night between Aguilas de Club America vs. Chivas de Guadalajara.
Possibly last game and Götze f****in explodes, would hate it so much if we sell him. Such a huge talent.
Guardiola has held Götze back the whole time. I am convinced that wherever he goes, he will do extremely well, if healthy. Just urgently needs to get rid of his manager.
