BOF Posted February 7, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 7, 2017 I get why they're hated. But if rival fans are going to be consistent with those views then surely the likes of Bayer Leverkusen & Wolfsburg should attract the exact same hatred. In the case of Bayer, a company with enough evil in its past to be hated by association alone. RB Leipzig are not unique. They're just the most recent example, and therefore the one fans aren't used to. But it's some impressive cognitive dissonance going on in the meantime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1986 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) Have seen RBL climb the leagues and the fans around the country detest them and rightly so, but this is just appalling behaviour. I am glad that the Dortmund Ultras are getting negative press here, as I have seen first hand how dangerous they can be. I understand that fans are passionate (I am too), but there is a line that is often crossed which is not reported often enough.

VillaChris Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Shocking result for Dortmund that, massively underachieved this season in the league. Should've had a bet on Hamburg as it's their time of the season....they're going to somehow stay up yet again aren't they?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Just ending up another boring season really, with Bayern walking the league even though they haven't been good this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern have already bought 2 of Hoffenheim's best players for next season and are linked with another from Leverkusen. The problem is that whilst everyone moans about Leipzig, Bayern are just dismantling any team they can when they get close. Obviously, you cannot stop them from doing this but look at the players they buy from their rivals, this is why Leipzig are important as they won't sell players to Bayern and all their players are on long contracts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1986 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Hoping that Guido Burgstaller can keep up his impressive form this season,could be one of the buys of the year if he does, scored a few goals already for Schalke and only cost just over a million I think. With him and Embolo (when fit) I have much higher hopes against Dortmund than I did a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1986 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Just the 8-0 for Bayern today against Hamburg, they love playing them, last 6 games they have scored 44 goals against them at home. Can see the Bayer Leverkusen manager being sacked within the next couple of weeks, their form is atrocious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've won their last 2 in the league haven't they? Admittedly they were poor vs Atleti, but I reckon the heat is off Schmidt for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leverkusen have been wildly inconsistent this season, they won last week so lose this week and so on, might scrape into Europa league but that's about it. It's always been a club that's had talented players and squads but can never make the final step. All leagues had that club, Arsenal, Roma etc. Schmidt has no business being linked with Arsenal though, that was an odd one for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve1986 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I feel for Hamburg fans, I was at one of the destructions at the hands of Bayern and they were dire that day (Mancienne and Bruma at the back). Leverkusen have so many talented players (like my beloved Schalke) but just can't get it to click enough to get them over the line. Schmidt is a good manager, but nowhere near good enough for a team like Arsenal, he has kept Bayer up in the top 6 for a while now, but I think without some serious medical money from the owners they will never get close to Bayern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 It's always been the case since that 2002 season....the team of Ballack, Lucio, Berbatov, Oliver Neuville. They won nothing despite being being in all the finals and messed up the league ever since and that's lingered since. Still being though plenty of players that top European clubs want to sign although Tah still has a lot to learn imo and I think Leno in goal is overrated....prefer Horn at Koln.
