The 4-2-3-1 formation really worked well today but Bremen were missing Naldo, Diego and Carlos Alberto.

They were missing a few key players so i dont think they will be that bad mate, i expect them to be up there challenging again. However, Bayern are looking awsome and will be hard to stop.

That should be a good game and a good test of how well this Bayern side have gelled.
We wish! We've got 14 players who are NOT injured and from what I can see, we don't have many alternatives in midfield, especially now that Chris Gentner finally got loaned out.VfB Stuttgart: Raphael Schäfer - Roberto Hilbert, Fernando Meira, Marco Pischorn, Arthur Boka - Christian Gentner (46. Andreas Beck), Silvio Meissner (62. Georges Mandjeck), Antonio da Silva - Cacau (62. Manuel Fischer), Mario Gomez (46. Ewerthon), Alexander Farnerud
And for Veh to test out alternatives for the start of the season.Sheffield gunner wrote:A good chance for the squad players to get some first team experience then!
How seriously do teams take the Ligapokal? Will Stuttgart try to put out a competitive team or will they write the game against Bayern off and just concentrate on getting players back to fitness?
The thread about him on one of the Stuttgart boards is spanning 38 pages at present, so I'd wager, there is some substance to the rumour.Sheffield gunner wrote:
Slightly off topic but Skysports are saying that Stuttgart are looking to sign Ciprian Marica from Shakhtar Donetsk. Presumably this news has been out for a while in Germany, but does it look like happening? Does anyone know how good he is?
Seriously, though, from what people are saying, he definitely wants to join Stuttgart and already asked Donezk to go easy on him in a test match (i.e. to leave him on the bench), apparently. Shakhtar want 6 Mio and Stuttgart are only willing to pay 4 Mio, according to an article someone translated on transfermarkt.de.

Be quick. They'll probably remove it soon.
VfB-Trainer Veh sieht Ligapokalspiel nur als Test
Armin Veh sieht Ligapokal nur als Test.
Kaiserslautern (dpa) - Meistertrainer Armin Veh misst dem Süd- Gipfel im Ligapokal zwischen seinem VfB Stuttgart und Bayern München nur geringe Bedeutung bei.
»Dem Ligapokal sehe ich ganz entspannt entgegen. Ich lege keinen Wert darauf. Wir sind nicht frisch und haben viele Verletzte. Wichtig ist für mich die Saison«, erklärte Veh nach dem Testspiel beim 1. FC Kaiserslautern (0:0).
Vor dem Halbfinale gegen die Bayern plagen Veh große Personalsorgen. Definitiv ausfallen werden Serdar Tasci (Innenbandanriss), Matthieu Delpierre (Patellasehnen-Operation), Yildiray Bastürk (Zerrung) und Sami Khedira (Kapselanriss), die nach ihren Verletzungen erst wieder ins Training eingestiegen sind. In Kaiserslautern fehlten zudem die Abwehrspieler Ludovic Magnin (krank) und Gledson, dessen Frau ein Baby erwartete.
Ein kleines Fragezeichen steht hinter Stürmer Mario Gomez, der sich in der Pfalz eine Muskelverhärtung zuzog und ausgewechselt wurde. Für ihn könnte Neuzugang Ewerthon auflaufen. Der Brasilianer hat jedoch wie die Mexikaner Pavel Pardo und Ricardo Osorio noch Trainingsrückstand.
Nationalspieler Thomas Hitzlsperger könnte dagegen nach seinen überstandenen Achillessehnenproblemen gegen den Rekordmeister sein Comeback geben. »Wir werden kurzfristig entscheiden. Hitzlsperger ist am dichtesten dran. Ich gehe aber kein Risiko ein«, sagte Veh.
