what a soulless presentation in the Allianz Arena
a few sponsors had their stands in front of the stadium and all you could do was to submit your address to participate in a bunch of raffles
no meeting of players, no nothing
the training session inside the stadium was a bit MEH as well
Gomez looked lively at first, later Robben
those papers today ,saying that Neuer was cheered by the crowd are missing the point
the audience consisted mostly of parents with kids
the REAL fans could hardly be bothered to turn up
and it's the Schickeria that was against the Neuer signing
Neuer was beaten from the spot by some middle aged chap and a kid hit the woodwork as well
then Schweini took his turn and HUMILIATED Neuer as well
Robben also tried his luck , but his effort was so poor, a blind man would have saved it
before that , some chap called Willy Astor, who's apparently quite famous, read a kind of football poem/word-play, that was so poor, 30.000 "fans" indulged in a bit of "Fremdschämen"
still
I just don't get why people always rubbish Wolfsburg, Hoffeheim and Leverkusen
it really does not get much less soulless than THIS Bavarian gloryhunting
even if many of the players actually seem to be pretty likable
what always puzzles me going to football games though is how few of the professional players look to be naturally gifted and talented in terms of movement
there is not ONE player who genuinely oozes flair , style or elegance, like Henry did in the past
