• Leverkusen Watch R

    From Binder Dundat@21:1/5 to All on Thu Mar 7 14:59:36 2024
    I was ready to say the Pretenders are back, but once again Bayer comes
    through. Now granted, they were playing against a team no one has ever
    heard of from a country from who knows where? I mean, I am pretty sure
    it is not in Europe, possibly Asia, maybe Arctica?

    I didn't see how Qaraba went up 2-0, I tuned in around the time Florian
    Wirtz came on and he then single-handedly rescued the point for Bayer
    and keeps them undefeated this season. Once again a late goal saves
    Bayer from being the Pretenders and that has happened so many times this
    season as well. Can they go undefeated for the rest of the season?
    Probably not, but they have 10 points on bayern and you know bayern will
    drop points. Dont let that win vs Lazio fool you into believing bayern
    is back. Lazio played to hold Bayern instead of going after them and
    that is why they lost, also they just are not very good.

    I suppose what this does show is that Leverkusen are not a deep squad,
    they need their top players, Alonso looked to have rested a bunch for
    this match, which is 10 time zones away from Germany, so I kinda get
    that, but they just cant do it without the core players. Can you
    imagine if Freiburg was playing Qarabag, they would be peddling those
    bikes for months! I mean come on, it is closer to China than Europe! I
    think they are closer to Australia than Europe????

    We will continue this watch to see if bayer can pull of the first
    undefeated season ever in the history of football!

    Well, Leverkusen last played there in November so they might have
    remembered.

    I‘ve got to say it sucks a bit that the draw turned out two ties (also Sporting-Atalanta) that have already taken place in the group stages. But it’s the last time that that could have happened anyway.


    Ciao,
    Werner

    You can pretty much take this post and re-post it for today's match,
    except go one better as they score 3 to avoid having to go to ET. They
    were down 2-0 with 20 mins left and looked like going out, but once
    again in very un-pretnder like fashion they pull off the win. Now
    granted they beat this team form who knows where in the group stage 6-1
    on agg. so it should have been easier, but the end result is what matters.

    I want to say Bayer are new Champions, the equation proves it is, our projections have them winning the liga,but deep down inside, I still
    cant help but think of the Pretenders. But 8 games left and a 10 point lead,what could possibly go wrong?

    Bayer beat Freiburg today 3-2, which is not that interesting, what is interesting is that Streich may be hanging up the bicycle?

    Yep, he’s cycling into the sunset at the end of the season.

    Historical precedent would suggest that Freiburg will now blunder through
    four seasons before they find their next decennial manager.

    Once again, in what seems a normal occurrence, bayer win with goals in
    the 90th minute. Apparently Xabi will be back again next season as
    well, probably end up getting fired next year. But enjoy it while you
    can. Now lets see if the Pretenders can do it against Bayern.
