If you click on "Quote" at the original message, you don't get the links where the photos are?

If that's the case, get a real computer man! LOL!!

I'm using Firefox too, and I get the links every time.

No way. Once you go Mac, never go back.

We're getting OT here. Agree to disagree???

Your cousin is crazy. Simple as that.

Maybe one of you can send me a direct link???

It used to work fine, but when they did the last upgrade on BS it screwed up a bunch of stuff.

Thanks for the link.

De nada.

5-2 a bit too optimistic.

Another draw. I still wonder when Rangnick will return to the 4-3-3 right from the start. :rolleyes: San*go is so useless. The red card against Tobi - a joke. Many passes from Hoffenheim went to Dortmund players. We did not try hard enough, too much arsenal-like in the penalty area.

[hackespitze123]

San*go is so useless.

He better starts scoring soon, would like us to get rid of him, and I hope that we'll get some decent money for him at least, money that is needed for the rebuilding of our squad this summer.

[berloha]

He better starts scoring soon


He better starts sitting on the bench !

I totally disagree with Rangnick here. Can't wait for the return of the 4-3-3.
Teber, Weis, Gustavo are out for the Bremen match.

I tell you, Bremen will win in Hoffenheim. Our defensa is horrible, espec. high balls, we lost every single one against dortmund players, I think.

How about giving us some credit for our effort?? :rolleyes:

Your players "tried hard enough", there was just a determined bunch in the yellow shirts matching them step for step.

And while you're throwing around accusations, why don't you point out that Ba should have also seen two yellows. One for his shameful dive in the Dortmund penalty area and the other for his elbow to Subotic's face.

Not to mention that Teber should have seen red for his studs to Hajnal.

Fandel said on Premiere had he saw that play properly, Teber would have suffered the consequences.

I think Hoffenheim played a better, more organized game, but BVB's effort made up for the difference.

I don't give a d*mn about Dortmund. :rolleyes:

[Vfbstuttgartfan]

I like how you totally ignored the rest of his post.

[berloha]

lol. I just logged in - so before I did it, I could read your post.

I find it a bit dumb to read about infantil stuff like 'but Ba could have seen two yellow cards, and Teber red.' bla bla and 'Give Dortmund some credits' Is this supposed to be a start for a discussion ? No. So I stay out of it.

[hackespitze123]

Rangnick's 'secret' of success with this talented, yet still very raw Hoffenheim side have not been the tactics primarily (4-3-3 or 4-4-2, there is nothing 'sophisticated' or new about the tactical side of things), but the understanding of the importance of athleticism in the modern game, which is the basis of Hoffenheim's aggressive pressing game, and 'explosive' attacking game, often overwhelming their opponents.

Ironically, this traditional strenght of German football seems to have been lost in recent years, while in other countries, England in particular, they put a much stronger emphasis on it these days (one could argue that the EPL is primarily so successful these days because they are superior athletes, compared to other, less athletic leagues like Italy or Spain in particular).

The downside of this is that you can't play this non stop high pace attacking game with thirty-somethings, you need young, hungry players who on the other hand are more error prone also. But, if the consequence of Rangnick's success is that other Bundesliga clubs start to understand the importance of athleticism, and put a higher emphasis not just on fitness, but physical 'presence' and aggressiveness, it will help the league a lot, particularly in Europe. It's a welcome 'inspiration', knowing that Bundesliga clubs are often too lightweight, especially in the middle of the park.

I don't give a d*mn about Dortmund. :rolleyes:

That much is clear. I'm sorry. I really thought I was chatting with a fan of the game.

I see I'm dealing with a pure glory hunter. I won't make that mistake again.

You'll be a Bayern fan tomorrow.

Oh, and "infantile stuff?"

F--k you. There's your "infantile" you arrogant punk. :mad:

If I were "infantile", I'd be here bitching about my team "not trying hard enough", when I know we didn't win because the other team was as good as we were and at times a bit better.

But that wasn't me here bitching about my team "not trying hard enough", was it??

[MetroChile]

Berloha seemed cool for a while but let's not forget that for a while he was a "fan" of both Bayern and Hoffenheim.

[Doc_Aeppler]

You'll be a Bayern fan tomorrow.

:D
He was a Bayern Fan yesterday!
But let Hoffenheim lose or tie three more games, he will probably become a Bayern Fan again... ^^

I think I said it before sometime: This guy gives up a perfect picture of a cliche-Hoffenheim-Fan...

[Vfbstuttgartfan]

I'll quickly add:

I personally like Berloha, I like having him on these forums. I know he's an ex-Bayern(are you?) fan, and now a Hoppenheim fan, for me a horrible mixture, but I still think he knows the game and his opinions are generally valid. I wish you had a different team selection policy Berloha ;) but I enjoy having you around.

[Jeremy Summers]

Berloha seemed cool for a while...


He just gets old!!!! His time is over.

But don't worry: A new star is born in this board!
