Troglodyte Posted July 5, 2011 Author VT Supporter Share Posted July 5, 2011 I'm not surprised. Still, he's a great player imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 In hindsight, should've stayed at Bremen. I actually don't think it's that far-fetched that he's 'gettable' for the likes of us, but then again we've already got Ireland filling our quota of potentially fantastic bell-ends.

Had my first meet up with this lot last week in London, as it transpires their first planned trip over for the season is also the Kaiserslautern match so happy days! They also want to get a group out to the away game at Hertha Berlin, I will be all over that shit. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Is this for the league system? If not surprised there's no Yesil. Emre Can is quality though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted July 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted July 22, 2011 oh and that Götze is a huge talent. Just can't take him seriously with an arse-tearingly funny name like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC_Hitz Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Dortmund were **** wasteful in their Supercup game. Götze was a tad exciting to watch however. Schalke win on pens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troglodyte Posted August 4, 2011 Author VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2011 Well we're without Barrios for the first 5-6 weeks of the season. He was injured at the Copa América, but the Paraguayan national team's doctors said that it wasn't anything serious. Barrios was then given an MRI scan back in Dortmund (where he apparently was willing to return early as he wasn't comfortable with the initial diagnosis) and it turns out that he has an 'abnormal' muscle tear. Klopp's not too happy about it! Gündogan has been called up to the Germany squad for their friendly against Brazil, which is great news, and could travel to Euro 2012 if he proves himself worthy of a place. He's certainly looked good in pre-season. Schmelzer misses out through injury, but Bender, Hummels and Götze are all in the squad, too: GERMANY SQUAD Goalkeepers 1-Manuel Neuer (FC Bayern Munich), 12-Tim Wiese (SV Werder Bremen) Defenders 2-Benedikt Höwedes (FC Schalke 04), 4-Dennis Aogo (Hamburger SV), 5-Mats Hummels (Borussia Dortmund), 14-Holger Badstuber (FC Bayern Munich), 15-Christian Träsch (VfL Wolfsburg), 16-Philipp Lahm (FC Bayern Munich), 20-Jerome Boateng (FC Bayern Munich) Midfielders 3-Simon Rolfes (Bayer 04 Leverkusen), 6-Ilkay Gündogan (Borussia Dortmund), 7-Bastian Schweinsteiger (FC Bayern Munich), 8-Mario Götze (Borussia Dortmund), 9-André Schürrle (Bayer 04 Leverkusen), 10-Lukas Podolski (1.FC Cologne), 13-Thomas Müller (FC Bayern Munich), 17-Marco Reus (Borussia Moenchengladbach), 18-Toni Kroos (FC Bayern Munich), 19-Cacau (VfB Stuttgart), 21-Sven Bender (Borussia Dortmund) Forwards 11-Miroslav Klose (S.S.
