18 Million!! I thought Russian clubs apart from Zenit had been hit big time by the Economic crisis?! If that is true, then you have to take your hats off to the Dinamo Moscow owners for digging into the pockets. Hardest part of going there will be the language without a doubt.
I just don't understand Kuranyi. He was going good in Stuttgart while Magath was coaching him. He goes to Schalke because they throw money after him and he just sucks. Magath goes to Schalke and he does good again. Guess what? Another club comes and throws even more money at him and he leaves again. I can almost guarantee that he won't do good again.
Every single one of the BL games on Saturday was sold out, even the meaningless end of season mid-table games.
1 Bundesliga play offs : 13/05/10 1 FC Nürnberg - FC Augsburg 1-0 16/05/10 FC Augsburg - 1 FC Nürnberg 0-2 Agg: 3-0 2 Bundesliga play offs : 14/05/10 FC Ingolstadt 04 - Hansa Rostock 1-0 17/05/10 Hansa Rostock - FC Ingolstadt 04 0-2 Agg: 3-0
I agree with your sentiments mate but Hansa are trying to avoid dropping out of the 2nd division. They were third bottom and Ingolstadt third from the top of the 3rd division, hence the play offs.
Oops, well they can stay up and play the dirty unwashed some more next season. Ive hardly kept up to date with 2.Bundesliga this season.
Sad to see Hertha go down but looking forward to going over for one if not both of the Berlin derbies next season...
Nürnberg and Ingolstadt both 1-0 up after the play-off 1st legs. Right then I'm off to the Cup final in Berlin, train leaves in about 85 minutes, see you later !
Nürnberg avoided relegation yesterday, after gaining an away win in Augsburg 2-0 and winning 3-0 on aggregate..
Nurnberg staying up was expected, they only had some bad results in the ending of the eason, throughout the season they were ok I thought? Kuranyi is overrated striker anyway so I think Magath will find a replacement :P About the national team, Im not sure about the coach, do German ppl regard him highly? Sticking with Podolski is a huge mistake, hes overrated and overly relied by Lowe who somehow uses him a lot I think? Ballack out, I think Germany will have one of the worst WCs in a long time...
