I'll be watching this on TV...will be gutted if we don't come away with 3 points...

Hopefully Bolton will be playing like they do in the Premiership...

[BMike86]

i don't want us to win because we SHOULD... i want us to win because i hate how every focking yank thinks the premiership is the best thing out with complete ignorance to La Liga, Serie A, and the Bundesliga. i want Bayern to kick their brains in, the Premiership is only worth the top half the bottom half is pure shite. going into this weekend Fulham was 14th position and out of relegation even though they had only won ONE match up to that point in the season. ONE MATCH!!! and they weren't in relegation... ITS NOVEMBER!!!

[Klask]

Bench Hamit and start Schlaudraff for once. Give him a shot to prove himself in the starting lineup and not off the bench for 10 minutes per game. Hamit could use a rest, the way he's been playing lately.

[ForeverRed]

Dammit, I'm going to be in Phily for a conference and won't be able to see this and I was so looking forward to playing Bolton in Munchen.

I think Hitzfeld will give Sosa some time in this game and rest Hamit. He'll probably do the usual RM rotation between Sosa and Schweiny and bring on Schlaudraff for Ribery if we have the lead.

[ZimbabweBob]

hopefully we kick the **** out of them, with the nature of the uefa cup with two wins..we're basically through to the k/o stage, probably even a win and a tie


i remember a couple of years ago, some bundesliga team made it through to the k/o stage without even winning a game in the group stage, they got 3 ties or something

[Dr.Phil]

Agree

Give Sosa and Schlaudraff a run

[eissman]

Will we see our Willy back?

That didn't sound quite right, now did it? ;)

Try again...

... will this be Willy Sagnol's first run out of the season???

doubt it :(

[ForeverRed]

He is only about 80% at the moment and will be back sooner than I thought. It's not neccessary for him to play in this game. No need to rush him back like Lahm against Belgrade and then have his lack of fitness cost us goals. Lell has done great so far and should continue to fill in until Willy is REALLY ready.

Although I can't wait for him to return, he is my favvoooooriiteeeee :D

same

[eissman]

I personally can't wait to see Willy's wicked service meeting the head of Toni or Klose!

How do you say goal in German? TTTTTOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D

[Hendrik]

He's expected to play for the reserves first to gain match fitness.

[pipin]

regarding schlaudraffs good performance for the second team, i second his start , too.


------------- Kahn ------------

--Lahm ---- Lucio ---- Demi----- Jansen

---------van Bommel ----- Ze----------

--Ribery-----------------Schlaudraff

-------------Kloni-------------


P.S.:

German media already in ridiculous mode, they are now counting the minutes Klose and Toni didnt score in the league (dropping the cup game vs. gladbach). :eek:

------------- Kahn ------------

---------van Bommel ----- Ze----------

--Ribery-----------------Schlaudraff

I think Lell will start as RB, which he deserved, and Lahm as LB. Jansen on the bench.

Anyone know if this game can be viewed in the USA? All of Bayern's bundesliga fixtures are on Gol TV but I have yet to see a UEFA Cup match of theirs.

different tv contracts... Bayern is on GolTV because of a LEAGUE TV contract... Uefa Cup is a whole other subject.

BMike... I am moving and switching satellite companies as well... I plan on adding GolTV finally (!!! welcome to the 21st centruty Eissman !!!) ~ does Bayern play there regularly or is it whatever Bundesliga match they have on for the day?

Just like Lahm, right? :p
Yeah, I would expect that as well.
Can't wait to see him back though!
