Die Fohlen sind wieder da - Borussia M'gladbach season 2008/2009 thread

[The Old Lady Hertha]

Holy crap you guys gave up 3 penalties?! :eek:

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

Of course we did,more to come in the next few weeks..we are here to make sure every team will collect 3 points (or at least one) while playing against us..we are kindda like the BONUS package!

So annoying that CZ and JL are still sticking to the same loser players for formation on the field..why dont they give others at least a try..i think its obvious how lost and disappointing we are right now! Not even remotely mediocre..oh well we can always return to the 2.liga where we seem very comfortable!:D

["Eisenfuß" Eilts]

What Gladbach has to do now is to find the players in the squad,
that can help you out of the situation.

[Borussia]

Holy crap you guys gave up 3 penalties?!

Obviously they were keen on establishing a new record...:rolleyes:;)

Absolutely disappointing performance, there was no reaction after the 0:1 lag short time before the interval. :mad: I know it's tough to play in Cottbus when they are in front, but it's the players' duty to fight at least! Also typical that we conceded the first 2 goals after unnecessary individual mistakes (once again)...

The fans are outraged, and it seems that Ziege & Luhukay (who's under growing pressure & criticism) are pissed off as well. The players surely will face tough days until the Hamburg away game...

Naz, didn't you notice that almost all players got their chance so far? Yesterday, it was Levels & Rösler ... but they totally disappointed (Levels even caused a silly pk).

The next 2 weeks (away game in Hamburg & derby against Cologne) will show the true face of the team! I'm still convinced that we have enough quality for keeping the league (despite the current problems - especially in defending).


It's really hard to explain the decrease in performance after the great Bremen home game! It seems that the team lacks a "leader" after Pauuwe's injury loss...

Borussia out of cup

A poor performance by Borussia saw them go out of the DFB Cup at Energie Cottbus after conceding three penalties.

Plain speaking in Gladbach

Borussia went down to a more than disappointing 3-0 defeat in the DFB Cup at Cottbus last night. Today was a time for some plain speaking at the BORUSSIA PARK.

yes i have noticed the few different players that come into play,but they are the same players..used in the same cycle..and same boring formation(almost like re-runs on cable TV),great coaches and genius minds are the ones..that utilize players in areas where they havent been used before..to perhaps bring and add a new dimension to a team..specially a team that is in "dire straights" at this moment and dealing with critical times!
I have nothing against CZ or luhukay but that being said..its been over 10 years that we are just aiming to survive..or make it to the mid-table on top of continuing to implement the same wrong policies with our coaching and squad....this is no ordinary club,or just a new club that moved from lower ranks to the bundesliga...we have to aim higher my friend...why was M.Bradely for example bought..if he was no immediate impact player?? we need players that can change the coarse of a game single handedly..i have said this many times b4,we just cant have a winning streak..and we cant maintain our level of performance..and in todays prof sport..its all about maintaining a streak! our fanse deserve better...its just like the same old broken record..playing year in and year out! sometimes seems more like a curse or bad magic thats been hunting us tell you the truth!
And where the hell is TOUMA?? we just have players that are good for decorating the bench

[Borussia]

...we have to aim higher my friend...


But not this year. I've told you often enough the goal for this season, so please don't be unrealistic & unpatient!




why was M.Bradely for example bought..if he was no immediate impact player??


Because we surprisingly got the chance to sign him under moderate conditions (2 millions of the 2.5 m transfer fee even came from Bayern due to Jansen's transfer to Hamburg). He's clearly a player for the future (who could also have an important impact already this season)!



we need players that can change the coarse of a game single handedly...


Then please invest some of your millions into BMG. :p ;)



And where the hell is TOUMA??


That's what I was wondering about, too. I expected him to start on the right wing for Matmour ... but JL decided to bring Levels as RB for the 1st time this season and start with Ndjeng in the right midfield (his position from last season). Well, it obviously was the wrong decision. The same with playing a 4:5:1 with Neuville upfront...

This time, I criticize Jos as well ... but not even the worst tactics and line-ups prevent the players from fighting and avoiding individual mistakes!



PS: I see you have some problems with copying quotations, my friend. :-))

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

Under the given circumstances you sure have the nerves to worry about quotes and posting my friend HAHAHAH,man the hamburg game will be a disaster ..since they went down this week...hope it wouldnt turn into our slaugherhouse:eek:

Why do I have the bad feeling that he'll score against us (like Schlaudraff & Forssell did)...

Gohouri set to return?

"Everyone knows what Saturday's about. Hamburg are a top side, but you always have a chance." There was not much else to say for Jos Luhukay at today's press conference.

[Borussia]

Karim Matmour and Patrick Paauwe are thankfully back for the game this afternoon ... whereas Tobias Levels, Sascha Rösler, Alex Baumjohann, Roberto Colautti and Sharbel Touma aren't among the 18 players who made the trip to Hamburg (risky decision from Jos to favor Jaures & Coulibaly ... but well, the manager always decides and has to take responsibility).

http://www.borussia.de/de/borussia_news_detail,185,0,newsid-164679.html


I'm very curious on the team's reaction to the crushing critics from last days. I fear that Jos Luhukay won't be our manager against Cologne in the case of another performance like in Hannover & Cottbus ... so today's game surely will show whether the players are fighting for their manager's fate or let him down.




Btw: About 5,000-6,000 BMG fans are expected at AOL-Arena. And we could mark a new negativ record (sadly) if we lose ... since it would be the 9th consecutive away defeat in the 1st league, making us to the "Auswärts-Deppen" again.

Go ahead and make my day,if you can find a live streaming of the game...that would be great...even tho am not sure if the result would be very pleasant today!:rolleyes:

Thanks alot for the link,going to give it a try..hope it works!

It doesn't work for this game. Unfortunately I couldn't find any live-stream link for today's away game so far. :(


Here's the line-up (4:3:2:1):

Heimeroth - Gohouri, Callsen-Bracker, Brouwers, Jaures - Alberman, Paauwe, Daems - M. Ndjeng, Matmour - Friend


Edit: Damn, Matmour already out with injury (like Paauwe in Hanover). Coulibaly (and not Marin) replaced him.

[Borussia]

It's already 1:0 for Hamburg (Petric header after a free-kick). Great start again...:mad:

[HANS-GUNTER BRUNS]

Already 1-0 for HSV,and its not even the 20th min:o

[Borussia]

Here's a live-stream link in good quality:

[Borussia]

Awful first half from both teams. But we are the ones who need a goal ... so I can only hope that JL changes his defensive tactics after the interval and brings Marin & Neuville for Ndjeng & Daems.
