[vin de guerre]

Good to see we are above Manure and Chelski in another League table!

nice to see, i don't follow the bundesliga at all are Borussia Dortmund having a bad year... perhaps due to the departure of one Mr Lehmann

 

[Sammer]

They are having a ****ty year. The replacement of Lehmann does not work. They put a young, promising, but unexperienced goalie between the posts. Their former stronghold - the defense - just fell apart with Lehmann gone and Metzelder injured.

Plus: Borussia is being hit hard either by injuries (Metzelder, Rosicky (now back), Frings etc.) or having trouble with players (Amoroso).

Financially, they are on the edge of going bankrupt (not playing in the CL or UEFA this year).

then we should try to see if we cant get Metzelder from them.
sad to see any club having financial troubles, but he is a quality player.

Exactly what I am thinking as well!

Metzelder has been linked to Arsenal, Chelsea and Real. I reckon he will be too expensive for us, but he´d fit in perfectly. He is a Nesta-type (not that I would say he is already as good): great vision, reading of the game. The guy, that holds a defense together.

My hope is, since he is best friends with Jens and since he admires the EPL, that he might end up at Arsenal. We´ll see.

Yeah he can be brilliant. But he is so damn moody and inconsistent. The Diva-type. Definately not an Arsenal player IMO.
