Hulk is crap, laads.

"Hulk, Hazard and Marin have cost Chelsea just £2million more than Downing, Henderson and Carroll cost Liverpool."

Junior Hoilett to Borussia Mönchengladbach on a 4 year deal! I was not expecting that...

Should make a great replacement for Reus. They have signed some great young players already in Xhaka, Mlapa and now Hoilett, really looking forward to see how this team progresses as they already have some cracking youngsters in Ter Stegan and Herrmann and a few other.

Champions League next year for them. And Hoilett now.

 

[DanEFC92]

Such a random move.

 

[Brownie]

What's surprising about it, it's like him signing for us but just in Germany.

 

[chicoazul]

Is right Junior lad.

It's quite surprising that Germany is such a lure for so many players: Raul, Van Nistelrooy, Huntelaar and Ribery to name a few. Could the country's strong economy be something to do with it?

Competitive league IMO. Now there are teams that are awful (Kaiser****en and Koln were awful this year) but it's easy to improve teams and move up the table. Wolfsburg won the league only 3 years ago and finished 15th just 2 years later. Mönchengladbach only stayed in the top league after winning the relegation playoff game last season and qualified for Champions League a year later. Schalke has qualified for Champions League 2 of the last 3 years and finished 14th last year (while ironically making it to the Semis in the Champions League). So there is reason to believe that each year you have a shot at winning the league or at least qualifying for Champions/Europa league

As soon as Cisse came into the team though he barely got any goals. Surprised Newcastle want to sell him though, not for as much money as i expected too.
