Jan Kirchoff gets the number 15 shirt while Mario Gotze rocks the number 19 for next season.

We start with the same team we ended last season with! Borussia
Monchengladbach

@Lordave
Kirchoff gets the number 15 not 6 actually

Didnt we start with BmGladbach 2 seasons ago where they beat us at Allinz arena due to a boateng and neuer miscommunication error

Yup a nightmare BL debut for Neuer!

19 for Gotze? Messi wore 19.




Ugly number though.

Lordave: 19 for Gotze? Messi wore 19.

Ugly number though.

I think when Robben leaves the numbers would change

Lordave: 19 for Gotze? Messi wore 19.

Let's be worried about his hamstring wey no wan gree heal and would make him miss most of pre-season! His number is the least of my worries

you are right. But wetin dey worry me pass na make im no become injury prone like Robben.

Good luck FC Bayern, for next season with my ones beloveth Guardiola.

Now i have withdrawn all my fondness for him, I no longer care if he proves his critics wrong by doing well outside of Barcelona.

I love another now...

Lordave: you are right. But wetin dey worry me pass na make im no become injury prone like Robben.

Either way I'm encouraged by the fact that he is still a young'in. He should be back in time for the season opener though should he recover before then you have to wonder if Pep would use him for the Supercup against Dortmund which would actually take place at the Signal Iduna on the 27th of next month

This is BAYERNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN Morrafuckka

a limited number of 20k people are going to watch Guardiola's first training session. €5 a ticket and the money made would be donated to the victims of recent flooding in Germany.

dayokanu: This is BAYERNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN Morrafuckka

Lol @ Gustavo telling Balotelli he talks too much!

@Lordave

trying to get more translations I only have snippets

"After winning four titles last year there is no need to change much in the team. I don't need any Barca players to field a strong team. I am certain Bayern has strong youth players. I have been in New York so I will still need to see more of them before making any decisions."

Ise ya! Pep addressing the troops

http://www.bleacherreport.com/articles/1683762-is-franck-ribery-the-most-important-player-at-bayern-munich

Interesting article on Ribery. The stand out part for me was his 4.5 successful dribbles a game and 3.2 key passes per game! That's numbers you would expect from Messi or Iniesta

I heard there might be an experiment to play Riery as a 10 cos as he grows older he would lose pace

dayokanu: I heard there might be an experiment to play Riery as a 10 cos as he grows older he would lose pace

That's not a bad idea! The Shaq Attack can take his place on the flank while Gotze or Robben man the right wing position. Problem is where does Toni Kroos fit in? That's assuming Pep does not go for the false 9 project (which I don't think is a good idea anyway) this isn't Spain

dayokanu: I heard there might be an experiment to play Riery as a 10 cos as he grows older he would lose pace

I strongly believe in Guardiola and whatever he does at Bayern must surely bring success. I've seen Ribery several times making good runs in the midfield, I think he's gonna fit in there.

I don't think it's a bad idea if we sell either Kroos or Muller and sign a good striker

Lordave: I don't think it's a bad idea if we sell either Kroos or Muller and sign a good striker

Sell Kroos or Muller?? You are joking right?

Lordave: I don't think it's a bad idea if we sell either Kroos or Muller and sign a good striker

Those are our youth players and cant be sold.

They are Bayern through and through

How can anyone think of selling Muller sef?

Me sef dey wonder ooh! Bayern's present and future na him make we sell? Na A$$@nal you call us?

but we have Gotze. To me selling kroos no be big deal.

Lordave: but we have Gotze. To me selling kroos no be big deal.

Well with Ribery,Schweinsteiger and Robben in their 30's next season they could use a little less playing time. Kroos is still one of the finest young midfielders in Europe with his best years ahead of him! We need him!

I agree with you though, I'm still high on alomo. But we need a prolific striker, we just can't rely on that wasteful Mandzukic

Lordave: I agree with you though, I'm still high on alomo. But we need a prolific striker, we just can't rely on that wasteful Mandzukic

Mandzukic brings work-rate to the table. I think his form dipped towards the end of last season but he started very well let's see how the second season goes

Germany is running out of young strikers; Kiessling and Gomez are close to 30. Klose is 34 .
