Amazing fight from 1899.
Ibisevic is a monster. Hell, 16 goals in 14 matches and no end in sight.
I loved Salihovic, again riquelmish.

Riquelme sucks.
Pick Jorge Valdivia or something. :D:p

I get Goltv, but they are not showing much of the bundesliga for some reason.

He's going to hit 30 goals in the Bundesliga alone if he doesn't get injured and stays consistent throughout the season.

And then we'll all be discussing if he's a one-year wonder or not. LOL!! :D

I actually think its possible to discuss whether he'll be a half-year wonder.
But I think its too early to discuss this, they've been amazing so far and they have shown no signs as of yet (except against us :D ) that they're going to slow.

I think that match just goes to show that no one in the Bundesliga is totally consistent this season and no one is "dominant."
For me, it makes for a more exciting season.

3-0 win over Bielefeld. 34 points. 40 goals.
Vedo Ibisevic with goal number 17 ! :D
No doubt that the boys will and can go to Munich with the head up high. I hope Obasi can return. Salihovic and Gustavo will come back too.

Safety is nearly assured, but i don't really think there was any doubt after week 4 or so.
Today the passing didn't look as good as it has been, but then again, it produced 3 more goals.

Imagine it: Ibisevic could actually pull a Gerd Müller if he keeps scoring like he does now. We all thought Müller's record goal scoring was made for eternity.
And if Hoffenheim as a team keeps scoring like this they are going to get 80+ goals this season. That's manifestly absurd (and I like it). Even Bremen didnt make the 80, though they came close in recent years.

I expect a hard task at Bayern.
So best of luck for the away trip to Munich. :)

Can anyone tell me what formation is the Hoff using? And I have heard about Ibisevic and Salihovic. Are they striker and an attacking MF? Who is the captain?
And can you please also share some videos of the Hoff games? Thanks.

Hoffenheim has played a 4-3-3 so far. The last game we switched back to a 4-2-2 due to striker obasi's absent.
I think he can play against Bayern so we alle might see the usual 4-3-3.
Ibisevic is Europe's most dangerous striker these days and Salihovic is the man in the attacking midfield. His free-kicks and standard situations are one of the deadliest of the German Liga.
Captain ? Marvin Compper from the central back. Teber was the captain against Bielefeld. The side Hoffenheim played last weekend.
