Who is Laura? Freigang? Thanks for hiding the name in the spoiler window: I would have hated to miss the surprise-factor.
The title thread is irrelevant since now we got to wait up to six months until Lohmann returns & hurts herself again on the first day of practice—who knows, probably runs into an flagpole or something It will need injury free players if Germany wants to win the World Cup Oh, never mind, they got Jule Brand! carry on……
Janina Leitzig to Manchester United https://x.com/ManUtdWomen/status/2080563782128972093?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet So she should be No1 keeper ahead of Tullis-Joyce (like she already should be Germany's No1 keeper as predicted on bigsoccer).
Next time just say my damn name... if you want to taunt, at least do it correctly lol. I stopped making predictions on the future of German GK's directly because of what happened with Leitzig and Frohms. Not only was I wrong on thinking Frohms at club and youth wnt levels not good enough to be the senior wnt's #1 GK, but also wrong on thinking Leitzig at Hoffenheim, Bayern, and youth wnt levels, looking ready to be a senior #1 wnt GK. But when it comes to assessing outfielders, I've been vindicated time and again with my pretty consistent analysis on most of these players quality within club football. Plus I wouldn't be so confident to mock what I said years ago about Leitzig, when the current German #1 used to have a far less impressive resume and still made the wnt... Berger starting at the very bottom of club football, then play off and on for Potsdam, PSG, before making her name at Birmingham City, eventually catching the attention of Chelsea and then the senior wnt at age 29. Clearly I don't understand how young GK's develop, but after a long run of games for Hoffenheim, Bayern, and Leicester City, currently age 27 Leitzig's potential wnt hopes are likely far from impossible.
New signings like Kowalski scoring 2 free kicks is a great start... as I'm very interested to see how Leverkusen's new mid-field and attacking options do this season. Even if Wolfsburg's attack looks weaker on paper, teams like Leverkusen will still need to add around 20-30 goals to realistically compete for UWCL positions...
OH OH, according to this new poll the Bundi falls down to only 6th best league in the world with the Italian League leaping past it. It could be do to an very strong recruiting season for Juvuntus & the celebrity owned Como, though Wolfsburg signed yesterday the Danish Internation fwd named Moeller Strongest Football Leagues in the World (according to Global Football Rankings 2026). Your thoughts? : r/WomensSoccer
Why do they have Turbine Potsdam included for Bundesliga? 307 Turbine Potsdam Frauen Bundesliga Germany 60.2
I don't see Potsdam's blue circular label anywhere, but going down this list, poor Bundi's 2nd division only gets ranked #25(as compared to England's WSL 2nd Div at #8) 2026 Women's Football League Rankings | Top Women's Soccer Leagues
They have included Potsdam in 1.Bundesliga - that's why Bundesliga is ranked so low. (also can't find Mainz in Top 404) https://globalfootballrankings.com/rankings/teams/women Como is 345th and still belongs to Serie B.
2.Bundesliga Ingolstadt - Potsdam 1:0 Mönchengladbach - Jena 1:2 Hoffenheim II - Viktoria Berlin 1:3 Köln II - Sand 1:3 Andernach - Meppen 1:2 Essen - Frankfurt II 3:1 Bochum - Hertha BSC 3:0
