    Isn't he injured? 3 to 4 weeks from March 28 when the injury was diagnosed would mean that the optimistic return date was in two weeks, wouldn't it?

    Not that he was going to be playing a lot anyway.

    It's very encouraging that every top US player in Germany seems to have returned injured...

    SMH...over all the hand wringing over Pulisic's perceived potential mistreatment. If he performs he will be legend, if not he will simply be another in a very long line of transfers that did not work out, hence the phrase loan army.

    The Hudson Odoi and Hazard issues are nothing to do with CP, and I think most CFC fans know that.

    Maybe I am wrong but I give Chelski fans enough credit to know that CP has very little to do with personnel decisions other than signing a contract.

    Fivvr with three dmids again today.

    At some point, he's going to have to reach deep, deep down and find a pair instead.

    He's an average coach with a mediocre mindset. He came to play for a draw. If you don't have a 'play to win' mentality, you'll never win.

    This is the title loosing game. They will come back to this end in a few weeks and wished could had went all out.

    Dortmund are laying a big fat turd today, it's good that Pulisic is missing this one.

    So glad CP is moving to Chelsea. Dortmund defense look)s like it always has (written before goal #4). Nothing more to say.

    It's always seemed like Dortmund being at the top of the table was more a product of the Bundesliga being down that it was of this team being particularly good. They've been weak down the spine for 3 seasons now

    Against Ponch I learned everything I need to know about Fivvr: He can't coach teams with talent.

    He's a scared little john sausage.

    Notice he brings in Weigl (DCM) and removes dahoud, then bring in a another quasi ACM/False 9.

    These are obvious counters from obvious pre-known mistakes.

    Same thing bothers me with the US coach. Just painfully obvious a-prior mistakes that then need 'brilliant' in-game adjustments...how about, just don't make the same mistake over and over again?

    Bayern us going to win the league again after taking a vacation in the first third of the season. Doesn't speak highly of the Bundesliga when a single club dominates it like that, and worse when all the other clubs look unimpressive in European competition.

    Maybe it's best he avoided that annihilation.

    Yea...still too early to call it like that.

    Bayern still have to go to Leipzig against Adams.

    While I expect Leipzig to mount a stauncher defense at home, Bayern has gone their last 5 BuLi matches 23:2. That's brutal.

    Bayern still have only a 1 point lead. Even with the embarrassing defeat Dortmund still have a chance.

    And out of all the top leagues Bundesliga to me has been the most interesting recently. Like in the PL theoretically 6 teams can win the league(not really true) but, because of that same 6 teams will play in Europe every season with 1 other getting a chance to play some Europa League qualifiers in pre-season. In Bundesliga Frankfurt were playing in a relegation playoff a few years ago but, now they will probably play in the Champions League next season plus they are in the Europa League QFs. Wolfsburg went from CL QFs, to relegation playoffs and are now back to competing for European places. Koln went from Europa League to relegated in the same season. Hoffenheim looked like they would be relegated a few seasons ago and then made the CL back to back seasons. Hamburg have played CL football this decade and were relegated. Heck Schalke were in the CL this season and were fighting for their lives this season. The fact that the sides that are not Bayern and Dortmund fluctuate so much makes it pretty interesting.

    What's the media reaction in Dortmund?

    Was Favre blamed?

    All I know is that Chelsea's never going to lose to Bayern (or anyone else) 5-0...

    Glad CP is getting out of Dortmund...amazing club to break in at....but he's outgrown that club, imo (as long as he can stop being injured all the time, that is)...

    All the fans and "pundits" that turned on him and think that the players favre favored over him are simply better than CP are morons........Favre is decent but not a championship-caliber coach, imo.

    You mean when CP joins? Lowlights in 2019 for Chelsea include losing 4-0 to Bournemouth and 6-0 to Man City.
