Luca Toni: Bang On

KICKETTE 17 November @ 11:34 AM EST

Luca Toni is a man of many off-pitch talents.

Examples, you ask? Well, we have none. We're just assuming he does due to the amount of extracurricular activities he takes part in, like here at the Sixdays Cycling Race in Munich. He brought his best fuchsia jumper along for the occasion.

Previously, we've had the pleasure of watching Luca making pizza, hang out with clowns and circus performers, flog sausages, and pose on scooters for no legitimate reason.

Some Manuel Neuer talk + Refs’ union continue to whine

Red Rants 13 November @ 03:00 AM EST

The international break means there will be little club news to report. But it seems some sort of groundwork is already being set in motion, with the transfer window a month and a half away.

Here's Schalke defender Marcelo Bordon, in an interview to German newspaper, Bild on goal keeper, Manuel Neuer:

"I know it would be terrible for the supporters of the club, but you have to keep the situation of the club in mind.

Bundesbag Week 12 Round Up

Some People are On The Pitch 12 November @ 06:21 AM EST
It was Tim Vickery who said that of all the unimportant things in the world, football is the most important. So while Germany comes to terms with the death of Robert Enke, let us take a few moments to reflect on trivial yet happier matters, namely last weekend's Bundesliga action.

Matchday 12: Captain Future

The Offside: Bundesliga 10 November @ 02:09 PM EST

The clubs at the top of the table keep crawling along. The clubs at the bottom keep sinking. Referees had a forgettable weekend and in between a player and a coach dropped bombshells.

Philipp Lahm. Bayern's disappointing draw at home against Schalke. Robben's moment of madness for which he should have seen a red card.

Could Luca Toni be heading back to Serie A?

Serie A Talk 08 November @ 01:24 PM EST

Luca Toni departed the Italian league back in 2007 but it looks as if the striker could be leaving current club Bayern Munich pretty soon.

Toni was subbed at half-time in the German giant's 1-1 draw with Schalke and reportedly opted to leave the Allianz Arena rather than watch the second-half from the bench with his team mates.

Champions League Wrap Up: Liverpool Almost Out

Soccer Wrap Up 05 November @ 10:03 PM EST
This matchday of Champions League and Europa League has provided us with action and entertainment. Anyone who said the group stages are boring is proved wrong big time, with big teams slipping, and small teams fighting, the group stages will be fought to the death.
In the Champions League, Liverpool boss Benitez is risking big with a 1-1 draw against Olympique Lyon, although the reds aren't out of the competition mathematically, they will need many results to go their way so that they can go through to the knockout stages. Click to continue reading...

The top of the league collectively dropped points, allowing Hoffenheim to close the gap but not much more. The bottom of the league collectively dropped points, allowing Hertha to keep dreaming about Bundesliga survival but not much more.

Video: Toni Kroos’ Volley vs Schalke

The Offside: Bundesliga 02 November @ 11:52 AM EST

A few years ago Toni Kroos was hailed as the next big thing in German football. He won the best player award at the 2007 U17 World Cup, joined Bayern Munich and was promised the #10 jersey. Far from claiming the shirt he instead commuted between Bayern's bench and the reserves. Meanwhile other next big things popped up, won youth tournaments, first team starting spots and call ups to the German national team.

Bundersliga Review

Inthestands.co.uk - Football Banter For the Masses - Football Blog 28 October @ 10:46 AM EST

It's starting to get interesting in the Bundesliga. With the weekend being eclipsed by a thrilling 3-3 draw. Schalke needed a last gasp goal from Kevin Kuranyi to make the game even stevens after Hamburg had led, 2-0, 2-1 then 3-2. Markus Berg and Kevin Kuranyi scored two goals each with Lucas Schmitz and Piotr Trochowski both on target in a 3-3 draw which had everything, including a red card for Hamburg's David Rozehnal.

Group B Preview (Oct. 21)

Joga Bonito Mundo 21 October @ 11:11 AM EST

Manchester United vs CSKA Moscow

I believe there is some drama to be had from Group B and I expect this fixture to provide it. The table at the moment has United with six points and then Wolfsburg and Moscow with three points.

When United visit Russia they will have a difficult task on their hands.

Bundesbag Week 9: Werder emerge from the pack

Some People are On The Pitch 20 October @ 12:19 PM EST
I think the jury is still out on Bayer Leverkusen as title contenders. So far this season Jupp Heynckes team have beaten Hoffenheim, Freiburg, Bochum, Wolfsburg, Koln and Nurnberg. Of those six results, only two were against teams from the top half of the table. More pertinently, when they have played fellow contenders Bayer have come up short. Click to continue reading...

Quote: Ten Beers

"It is a fairy tale that I ban everything. I only ban things that are hurting the team. But when someone comes to me and says he needs ten beers to score a goal, then I lecture him about the risks of alcohol consumption and give him ten beers."

Schalke's coach Felix Magath in an interview with Welt Online.

Let’s go Red Bulls (for tonight at least…)

The Offside - Toronto FC 14 October @ 08:09 PM EST

I will become a very short-lived New York Red Bulls fan if they can beat Real Salt Lake tonight to aid in the cause of TFC making the playoffs. If Real wins, our hopes go further down the drain, and TFC plays Real in Toronto for their last home game this Saturday. I'll be at that match, and I really hope it still means something!

(video gol) Calcio, Bundeliga: Hertha-Amburgo 1-3. Esordio amaro per Funkel. I ragazzi di Labbadia volano in testa

(video gol highlights di Herta Berlino-Amburgo)
Hertha strapazzato. L'Amburgo passa meritatamente, per tre a uno, in casa della compagine capitolina (esordio amaro per il neotecnico Funkel), alla settima sconfitta in otto gare di campionato, e continua a rimanere attaccato, a quota 20 in vetta alla Bundesliga, alle "aspirine" del Bayer Leverkusen che ieri hanno battuto 4-0 il Norimberga ed offerto una grande lezione di gioco e spettacolo.

Revierderby Madness: A “Wembley Goal”, Celebrating in Front of Opposition Fans, and a Possible Backwards Headbutt

The Offside 28 September @ 11:30 AM EST
Plenty of drama in the Revierderby this weekend, where FC Schalke 04 won 1-0 at BVB Dortmund's Westfalenstadion. First there was the "did it cross the line?" moment when BVB's Lucas Barrios long range strike hit the underside of the bar and bounced down either inside or outside of the goal.
