wow, 3 teams can win the german league on the last day of the season, that must be exciting for there fans

Most intense and exciting Bundesliga season I've ever seen.

Bayern can still win the title next week if Wolfsburg lose against Werder, but if Bayern lose their own match against Stuttgart they could even end up on 4th place if Berlin win their last game - and Stuttgart would win the title. 

Wolfsburg have it in their own hands, but they are warned as they'll play their last match against Germany's football diva Werder Bremen (my 2nd favorite team). Werder can lose any game - as they impressively proved again today - but they can also beat every team (while they play a horrible league season, they reached the German cup final, threw Milan and others out of the UEFA Cup and eventually reached this final as well).

I hope VfL Wolfsburg win the title, they deserve it (I don't really like the club, but the current team does an excellent job).

I wonder if the two fantastic Wolfsburg strikers Grafite (Brazil/26 goals) and Edin Dzeko (Bosnia/25) will still be there next season...

Haha. Typical Man U fan that supports two teams in the same divison! Priceless.

Typical Man Utd fan? I know your probably mad that we won the title but I'm not a bandwagoner. Man Utd has been my favourite team since I was five and didn't know shit about football. I could easily have went on to support Chelsea or Arsenal when they were winning titles and Man Utd were not, but no I still stood by my team because I'm a supporter of the clubb not someone who likes a team because they win. I also don't mind supporting Spurs in their games mainly because soem of my family lives there and I went to see a match when I went to England. There supporters are great people and I don't mind cheering them on. However my main club is Man Utd so if you think I'm a Spurs fan who supports Man Utd for glory your very very wrong.

 



Why does everyone think all Man Utd fans are "tag alongs" who support Man Utd because of Ronaldo etc? I mean you guys probably never even supported Chelsea or Liverpool before they won titles back in 04, 05 06...

Wow, did Hannover sell the game?
I mean, 5-0 is pretty though!

 

 

The season for Hannover was over even before. Nothing to gain except a win in the State-Derby, but the rivalry has never be to big between those two teams.

Biggest problem was probably, that two players in the defense gave their comeback adter injuries and 39-year-old Michael Tarnat was allowed to play his last home-game for Hannover (if not in his career). Not the best option against the best two strikers in the league. And they took this present: Dzeko scored three times and Grafite twice.

Bayern f... it up, because they just didn't score enough. The chances were there. Now they even have to fear the Euro League. As they're playing Stuttgart next week and Hertha can be the lucky third.



Inter is finally the winner of the Serie A.
This means the Milan lost, so c'mon lads, tomorrow let's get rid of Atalanta. I'd love to be second after the Milan supporters have been getting so excited for being the "Anti Inter".

Italian league is boring as hell. Slow defensive ugly football. Inter has been dominating for 4 years and no one has come close to touching them.



On another note, which players do you expect to leave their clubs?

Tevez will leave and I dont really care. He cant perform when he starts and when he gets subbed off he shakes his head and wonders why. We can use his money to buy a young striker and maybe Ribery.

Speakign of Franck, hes leaving for sure if Bayern don't win. Hes to good for that team

Ibra is gone for sure. Real Madrid need him if the ywant to challenge for La Liga.

I don't think Ronaldo will leave. first, after Madrid got demolished 6-2 a couple of weeks ago he stated that he no lonegr wants to move there. Second, Casillas doesn't want him on the team because it will cuase distractions. And I tihnk SAF will set him and his ego straight.

It's pretty though to get close to them for a team which was sent in the Serie B just three years ago and saw all its money from sponsors and Champions fade away. The Milan and the Roma were supposed to be facing them, but they're both pretty bad, so Inter is winningbecause of the lack of other good teams. And it's such a shame.

PS=I do prefer a defensive football to a Barcellona game, where your football is based on how terrible the other defenders are.

I'm really dissapointed in Milan Juve and Roma. Roma finished 2nd to inter for like 3 years I think? They probably got tired lol. Milan is a joke with their Grandpa team. They really need to clear out some players. And Juve, They got the punishment they deserved really and with Diego coming this could signal a new start for them. Neither teams were far away from inter this year. If Grandpa Milan found a replacement for Motor Mouth Gatusso, and found some decent defenders and a keeper all they had to do was beat Inter twice and it wouldve gone down to the last day.

You know, Roma and Milan were two big disappointments. They're worse than Inter so they lost. But why should Juve be so? How could we win the Scudetto with Ranieri and one year in Serie B?

Our main problem is that it's not anymore about Scudetto, it's about getting into the top 3. We managed to equalize today too. I'm getting tired of this team, the players just don't seem to care, they play just for the heck of it. Today we hadone of the worst match ever. I don't know how bad Ranieri can get before he finally gets the hell out of Turin. He doesn't deserve to sit there. Zebina for De Ceglie? Del Piero for Amauri? Trezeguet for Zanetti? Are you kidding me?
