Ngwenya :wallbang:

If you see how bad he is with the ball you want to scream . Luckily he will not be considered as part of the squad.

I think Thomas Müller will be the 4th striker.

Btw Björn Kopplin won the EURO Under-19 with Germany! Congratulations to the Bayern youngster.

 

[filo]

Yes very good match for Bayern. Still remmember we had 7 players of of contention, so hoping at least Borowski, Toni, Ribery and Demichelis get back to line, Bayern's level will clearly rise.

Anyone notice that Sagnol was the only unused sub yesterday? I read somewhere that Sagnol accused Bayern again for not giving him the captaincy. If Willy continues to whine like this, I would rather have him out of the club. He is a pain in the *** lately. I wonder why Klinsi didn't even try him out today after using all his subs? Injured?

Yes, injured. That was what appeared on fcb.de. In fact, he was supossed to be a starter today.

I think captancy is for either Lucio or van Bommel. Lucio was captain today or am I mistaken?

 

[filo]

Van Bommel has been the captain during all the friendly matches so far.

Is that an indication that Klinsi will have Bommel as Bayern's new captain?

If so, this will be the first time in Bayern's history that a non-German is the team's captain for the season.

Yes, and the current list of possible captains has only 2 Germans in it, and they are in my view the 3rd and 4th choice.

1. Mark van Bommel
2. Lucio
3. Philipp Lahm
4. Miroslav Klose

 

[filo]

Well lately we have played the oficial matches only with Zé Roberto and Schweinsteiger.

And Klinsmann takes off Zé Roberto for an applause...
