You're a smart cookie Blut. I've always liked you. Howeber you can't pull the wool over my eyes. Your Bundesliga fandom runs deeper, we know it. You demand respect, the attention that the EPL.and English football garners burns you deep, just like every other exasperated follower of German football. Because you guys just cannot understand it, a grey little island with it's archaic mentality and quirks centrestage with all the girls whilst the superior Teuto equivalent simply cannot wrestle out of it's shadow.blutgraetsche wrote:Hah....the only interest I have in Bayern doing well in Europe is
a) to improve the league's position so there's a remote chance for my beloved Werder to regain a CL spot in future - much easier with four instead of three spots.
b) to see the NT players gaining experience and do well on the highest level, against the best competition, so we can finally win something again, been a while.
I don't fucking care about 'recognition' of the league or the other nonsense you're pulling straight out of your arse Bernd. As if 'recognition' by the Engländers changes a damn thing for German football. On the contrary, it's likely counter-productive as the level of positive hype in English rags these days makes me feel rather uncomfortable - usually it's a good bet for things going south pretty quick.
You should watch Rush- really does a fabulous job of dissecting the Anglo Germanic psyche in a nutshell. It's ok though because deep down it's more of a collaborative love story than one of fragmented enemies. Tchusssss mon amis, up the Bremen
