1. Bremen and Schalke win Champions […]

Bayern Munich is the 5th most valuable football club in the world, followed by Schalke 04 in 10th, Dortmund in 15th, Hamburg in 17th and Bremen in 18th position. Don’t take Forbes’ data about the clubs too literally though. They will try and tell you that Schalke is owned by the Veltins brewery. (Forbes)

Mirko Slomka got fired on Sunday. The same Sunday Kevin Kuranyi put on his serious face and told reporters that Schalke had lost a very good coach, who every player loves to work with. Then he put on his sad face. Then he said OK. Then he drove away […]

Though, Croatia didn’t really impress in their friendly against Scotland (1-1) and neither Dortmund’s Mladen Petric nor Bremen’s Ivan Klasnic could put their names on the score sheet. I’m still a bit sad, that Bilic won’t be coaching a Bundesliga side next season. Though, news just […]
