Bayern Munich's Awful Backup Keeper Is Demonstrating How Great Manuel Neuer Is
If walking the Bundesliga, winning the World Cup, and consolidating his place as the world’s very best goalkeeper weren’t enough to win Manuel Neuer the Ballon d’Or in 2014, when he finished third in the voting, then maybe atrocious blunders like this one today by Sven Ulreich, Bayern’s No. 2 keeper...

Christian Pulisic Kicks Off The Bundesliga Season Like A Superstar
Every time I worry the American soccer press (Deadspin included) is being too hyperbolic in their praise and general hype for Christian Pulisic, he goes and assuages those fears with a marvelous performance. Consider today’s Bundesliga opener, which comes amid Ousmane Dembele’s transfer saga as well...
James Rodriguez Escapes Real Madrid's Bench For Bayern Munich
At the 2014 World Cup, James Rodriguez appeared to cement himself as the next international superstar. Scoring six goals in five matches, including one of the best of the year, James won the Golden Boot and immediately caught the attention of Real Madrid. The La Liga giants bought him from Monaco fo...
Wolfsburg Make John Brooks The Most Expensive American Player In History
This summer’s transfer window isn’t even officially open yet and we’re already seeing some crazy, record-breaking fees being thrown about. Like Paul Pogba a year ago, the source of the (arguably) biggest, most (relatively) eye-popping fee that (not quite) everyone is talking about is the record-smas...

More Magic From America's Wonderteen Christian Pulisic
American soccer sensation Christian Pulisic has had a hell of a week.

Julian Green To Officially Begin His Career By Leaving Bayern Munich
Julian Green was never going to make it at Bayern Munich. He is a fairly promising homegrown prospect at a club that (at least historically) values integrating players developed in-house, but he’s also a not all that talented player—not enough to consistently earn developmental minutes at one of the...
Miami's Fox Station Aired An Infomercial For A Coffeemaker Instead Of This Match
Borussia Dortmund beat Bayern Munich 1-0 in today’s Bundesliga clash of titans, but despite Bayern’s helpful chart fans in Miami didn’t find the match on their local Fox station.

Christian Pulisic Is Too Good To Be Underhyped
It wasn’t even two whole weeks ago that Borussia Dortmund manager Thomas Tuchel sought to keep the hype flames being stoked by eager Christian Pulisic fans under control. Sure, it’s neat that Pulisic has done well with the USMNT, I guess, Tuchel basically said. But let’s be real: he was doing it aga...

Large Bayern Munich Supporter Subdued Before Invading Live Shot
Fox Sports was live in Munich to cover Bayern’s celebration after this morning’s Bundesliga season wrap-up matches, and reporter Rhiannon Jones got a scare as a very large home supporter approached the camera—only to be scooted along by a security guard half his size. Good times, Bavaria....
Coach Pulls Hammy Trying To Run Away From Celebratory Beer Shower
Leipzig manager Ralf Rangnick and his players were delighted by their win this weekend, which cemented their promotion to the Bundesliga next year.
