Basically, I was always good at German at school, but I never really used it after leaving. It's coming up to three years since I did my A-levels and last really studied the language, and I'd like to pick it back up before I forget everything in a haze of alcohol and schmokies. So, as well as looking for language learning stuff on the internet etc, I would like to start following a German football team and possibly read their messageboards etc (and post when I get the confidence). However, I'm finding it really difficult to choose 'my' team. It's not really a 'natural' way of choosing a team, but I'd like to support one with a good fanbase, and ideally a team I'd be able to pick up tickets for if I did go and see them play. It'd also be good if the town/city they play in were somewhere worth visiting. Preferably, the club would be fairly stable (I read that Dortmund have had quite a bit of financial difficulty) but not a massive team (...I don't want to follow Bayern). A nice kit would also be a bonus I suppose the best way would be to start watching the Bundesliga next year and see who I'm drawn to, but I'd like to get a sense of some clubs, their histories etc. So, any German VTers or German football fans have any suggestions for me?

I get the benefits but I'm very much against it, even when it's us that are potentially benefiting from it. Man C are the obvious big baddies here (as in most things) with their City group but there are many others. Red Bull has their model with clubs in Germany, Austria, the US, Brazil and so on. Saudi Arabia has Newcastle and the 4 clubs in their league. Bill Foley's Bournemouth are paired with Lorient in France. John Textor of Crystal Palace has ownership in Lyon, Belgian RWD Molenbeek and Brazilian Botafogo Giampaolo Pozzo has Watford & Udinese Pacific Media Group has GKS Tychy , Barnsley , KV Oostende, Den Bosch, Nancy, Esbjerg and part ownership in Kaiserslauten. Chelsea & Strasbourg + whatever link there is between Boehly and the Saudis American 777 Partners owns Genoa, Standard Liege, Vasco da Gama, French Red Star FC, has stakes in Hertha Berlin and Sevilla and is trying to buy Everton And there are tons of other examples including us. Since this is a topic discussed in multiple topics I thought we might start one for it. Thoughts?

Figured they need their own thread as we (I) keep clogging the 'the game's gone' thread. They're apparently convincing Kounde to wait and join them instead of Chelsea. Every of their transfers this window just leaves a bitter taste in my mouth with their financials.

Unless I’m doing it wrong, the search function is suggesting there’s no Real Madrid thread already. The reason I was going to post was the recent news that they are releasing both Eden Hazard and Karim Benzema on free’s at the end of this month. Both have 1 year left on their contracts but have agreed terms to leave early. Benzema reportedly off to join Ronaldo in the Saudi league. Not sure who will take a chance on Hazard. 2 mega earners off the wage bill makes me think they are plotting something big, Mbappe probably… or maybe Haaland?

If I'm not mistaken, there's a very interesting race brewing in the league co-efficients at the moment. The Premier League in 3rd place is currently beating the Serie A by 75.391 points to 72.832. That's a cumulative co-efficient over this season and the previous 4 (this season 5 is still going on) But ... For next season's tally they will both lose their 2012/13 score (13/14, 14/15, 15/16, 16/17, 17/18). That means England loses a 16.428 and Italy only loses a 14.416. All of a sudden the new totals would read 58.963 versus 58.416 with the new season to add on. So if Italy can out-perform the Premier League in Europe next season by over half a point, then the following season they would get the 4th Champions League slot and England drops to 3. Chortle. It's also worth remembering that both leagues still have someone in Europe this season, so their current 2016/17 scores of 14.357 for England and 13.750 for Italy could still change. For comparison, Spain are top with 104.141 and Germany are second on 79.498.

Has anyone ever been to the San Siro to watch AC Milan? I'm there this month and want to go but cannot seem to buy tickets via AC Milan website as they are not appearing. I don't want to put money into Viagogo or any ticket touting rip off site if I can help it. If anyone has any ideas please let me know! Cheers
