2 deals before the weekend. Baku? Good. €25m option on Okafor? Absolutely shocking.
RB Leipzig
- Thread starter Nymzee
- Start date
Baku confirmed. Probs Okafor later on. Surprised he agreed to a 2.5 year deal. Good signing though to cover the right flank for the price.
RBL Matchday
20 mins late but Winter break is over and the Bulls are back in action with a home tie against Werder Bremen. Some bad results have shoved Leipzig down the table a little but a win here brings them back up to joint 3rd just behind Frankfurt on goal difference (who could fall away when Marmoush goes). Xavi Simons and Raum are back after injuries and Rose persists with the 3-4-1-2 formation and Seiwald as a RCB. Klopp in the stands looking as bellendish as ever.

Xavi opened the scoring after 20 mins but Werder have just equalised through Weiser. Annoying.

2-1 Xavi
Second for Xavi who just dribbled past the entire Bremen team it seems. He was so off first half of the season beforer his injury but back with a bang here.

Sesko with an absolute screamer from miles out. Need to find the clip immediately.

Nusa hits the post and almost scored one of the best individual goals I’ve ever seen.

Absolute gift at the back and former RBL player Burke slots. Please don’t mess this up with 3 mins left.

Very important win in the hunt for CL spots. When the offence clicks, it clicks. Short highlights below.

Longer highlights inc. Nusa's incredible almost-goal:
Can't see him picking Leipzig over Bayern, or even Frankfurt, but would be an insane free transfer.

Well thank eff for that. Deal was mental. Definitely better players out there.
RBL Matchday
Soon as one match is done, another is upon us. This time a tricky fixture away to Stuttgart who have fallen off a little this season but a win for them tonight puts them just a point behind Leipzig. Rose has gone with the same lineup (3-4-1-2) as the Werder game but Baku comes in for Nusa which is a surprise as he had a really strong game last time out but Baku more natural as the wing-back. These are a lot more deadly than Bremen so can't be giving up the easy chances like last time otherwise you might need to score 4 again.
Game is LIVE from 19.30pm
