Serious? You have complaints about the Neymar ban and you believe that refereeing is the reason for your club's comical Champions League record? Then you complain about an investigation where you were let off on a "technicality" . Are you really surprised supporters of conventional clubs...

Judging by your English you are not from the UK. I'm not sure how metropolitan areas are organised in your country, but Liverpool is part of Merseyside. That immediately increases the local population to 1.4m. The immediate hinterland to that is North Wales, Cheshire , Lancashire . That's a...

I doubt modern professional footballers care about how popular their club is with media or fans. Especially in a league where the majority of players are foreign and often don't speak the language properly. Is the average Man City player even aware Liverpool are more popular? Surely they are...

How is the population size of the city relevant? Liverpool are well supported all over the UK. What's the total population of the total area within say 4 hours drive of Liverpool? 30 or 40 million? It's not going to give me sleepless nights either way, but the police estimated a crowd upwards...

Brilliant. Football club owned by a non democratic Middle Eastern state attempts to shut down a prestigious news publication. The biggest can of worms ever. Imagine the fallout from that. Whatever the rights and wrongs of this entire case doing that would be tantamount to PR suicide. There...

Not really . Plenty of good German players never played for Bayern. I dont know if the names Seeler, Netzer, Sammer mean much in England, but in Germany those are considered all time greats. Nobody has a problem with that. The only one where it hurt was Schuster because he was a Bavarian...

Nice try. I'm a Munich born Bayern fan. I look out for Arsenal in the English league though. I remember them beating ManUtd 3-2 in the first FA Cup final I watched. 3 goals in the last 3 minutes. Late 70s early 80s that must have been. At that time the atmosphere in English football was much...

A much better chance of winning the CL with City than Bayern? Are you sure? Bayern have 5 wins, 5 runners up and 19 semi finals places. City have 1 semi final place to show for a decade of trying. It's a hard competition to win if you haven't done it before. Look how long it took Juve and...

As for Matthaeus he was a magnificent player, but his comments are worthless. His only area of expertise is chasing women half his age. As Hoeness once said "I wouldn't even employ him as a greenkeeper". He doesn't have a clue what happens at the club.

Is he worth twice as much as Hernandez who is one of the best defenders in the world? I agree it's a lot and I'm personally more comfortable with the 35million spent on his fellow World Cup winning defender Pavard. You seem to think a winger is worth more than a defender by virtue of being more...

I don't think it's just City. There is a premium levied whenever an EPL club is involved. Look at the prices for de Ligt and de Jong. They aren't worse players than Sane, yet they are going for 60 odd million each. That's to Barca. In Germany its even more sensible. Brandt and Werner are very...

Yes, they just signed Julian Brandt. They also have Sancho and Reus who can play wide. As for Bayern signing Dortmund players they have signed a grand total of 3 in the last 25 years or so. Hummels, who originally went from Bayern to Dortmund, Goetze who has since returned and Lewandowski...

Berlin? A city with next to no football pedigree or culture. A city that has brought nothing but bad things to the other states of Germany over the centuries. A city that is economically reliant on the powerhouses of the South to subsidise it's moribund finances. Each to their own, but I'll...

He knows what he's doing and how football works. He has 95 caps for Germany, was European footballer of the year twice and won European trophies at club and international level. He also knows how the business works. Bayern have never had to be punished domestically or in Europe for tapping up...

It's not "my" club. It belongs to everyone .We don't have owners. I don't know if you speak German or any other foreign language, but Bayern is always referred to as "Die Bayern" , Dortmund as "der BVB" etc . Nobody would ever say "We were shit on Saturday " or "we should sign a winger". It's...

Paranoid much? They need a winger and they need more German players. There aren't many others who match both criteria.Its really quite straight forward

I don't think so. Milan were relegated for match fixing in the 80s. OM were stripped of the Champions League and Juve were relegated in shame. Yet all these clubs are respected across Europe. Blackburn in the 90s, Chelsea in the noughties and Rangers in Scotland were tarred as cheats. It's...

It's probably best if we don't turn this into a debate about which club has produced more talent over the years. At the moment only Hummels, Alaba and Mueller are regular starters with a youth team background, but over the years Bayern have produced more world class talent than your entire top...

Shit league where every match is played in an atmosphere EPL clubs can only dream at a club with a better track record in Europe than any English club. It's not all bad although you are right about the standard. It would be higher if the top EPL teams weren't all full of ex Bundesliga players ...

Yes, PSG or some Chinese club would pay more. He isn't going to want to go there instead of Bayern. Weird attitude you have. I don't like Schalke, but that's his club. You will have seen in the CL how good their fans are. What happened when he scored against them? They applauded him. They...
