Hello soccer friends,
When it comes to royal blue, to be honest, I’m a bit lost. Of course, Schalke defended well during long stretches in Revier’s derby against BVB, but where was the offensive spirit? You were in the opponent’s penalty area four times yesterday.
Coach Manuel Baum’s team barely had the ball, and if someone arrives flying in front, they have to get into the penalty area.
One would have to get the courage from somewhere. When you look at their faces for a goal … These aren’t guys who have learned a relegation battle. And should they move on? One saw Nabil Bentaleb and Amine Harit who were in complete perplexity, according to the motto: ‘What should I do’? They’re scared. And 90 minutes is long when you face Dortmund. I can’t think of anything else.

However, the Schalke team can hardly be denied. They are all of good will, coach Manuel Baum will give them a good structure. But yesterday they also had the will.
I can’t understand Bürki’s discussion
Completely different problems prevail in the rival BVB district. And to some extent they are homemade, like the discussion about goalkeeper Roman Bürki. A subject that surprised me. The only thing I take away from the post-game conversations: Michael Zorc says: ‘Bürki is our clear number one.’ Five minutes later, Lucien Favre says: ‘Everyone has competition. I don’t like the question. ‘ A topic opens that I cannot understand.
I don’t know what Favre is riding there, there may be good reasons. The topic comes out of nowhere. I don’t know if Favre is doing himself a favor after matches like Lazio’s.
Furthermore, despite the successful derby, the Champions League loss to Lazio cannot be simply ignored. They were not disarmed by a super team. The first part was indescribable, you can’t play the Champions League like this, not with the qualities that this team has.
Lewandowski is crazy
The potential for conflict Favre creates with the Bürki construction site is great. Favre is a wonderful coach, a great guy, I appreciate him beyond measure. But with the mixed situation in Dortmund, he makes a goalkeeper theme, where the sporting director says one thing and the coach the other. I think that’s dangerous.
I am deeply impressed by Robert Lewandowski’s performance at Bayern Munich. He’s crazy like Cristiano Ronaldo. You can’t look at it by normal standards. Flick was overjoyed when he said Lewandowski wanted to be replaced. He wants to play, he wants these records, he needs them.
However, I also see a change in Poland. Two or three years ago he sometimes had body language, if the ball didn’t reach him, he made it very clear. Today he says that he also likes to put balls.
