Heiko Westermann - Hamburgs captain
Today I'm going to see a match from the Bundesliga between Hamburger SV and Wolfsburg.
Hamburg is the only team that always played in the Bundesliga from its foundation in 1963, thus
earning the nickname "The Dinosaurs". Unfortunately for them, they currently are in the last place.
Hamburg SV's captain, Heiko Westermann, knows how to give the people what they want. No, not a
victory against Valencia CF on Monday (soz fellas); we're talking about a nice flash of thigh and a
healthy helping of abs! Hooray! Image via Mundo Deportivo.
While Tuesday's matches featured quite a few David vs. Goliath no-contests, Wednesday's games
promise to be a lot more competitive. The second round pits quite a few Bundesliga teams against
eachother, and none of them want to be the amongst the first sides knocked out.
Bayern Munich will be looking to continue their recent good form with an away win here over
Hamburg. Louis van Gaal will be well aware that if his side drop any more points, they will be too
far behind the pack leaders to defend their Bundesliga crown.
Felix Magath Is The Man To Lead Schalke To Success This Season Despite An Awful Start.
Schalke ended a five-match losing streak on Wednesday evening after they pulled off a
last-minute win away to Freiburg. Few could see, after so many disappointing defeats, how Magath's
side would be able to pick themselves up with morale seemingly in the dumps throughout the
squad.
Heiko Makes The Move To Hamburg For First-Team Football.
Schalke boss Felix Magath has announced today that Heiko Westermann is set to move to Hamburg
after a transfer has been agreed between the two sides. Magath stated that the move was based on
first-team football, and that Westermann would not be played regularly in the center of Schalke's
defense.
Ballack Returns To His Old Stomping Ground On A Two-Year Deal.
Germany's Michael Ballack has completed his move to Bayer Leverkusen, after Chelsea refused to
renew his contract just weeks ago. The ex-captain of Germany has chosen a move back to his old
club, where he played from 1999-2002.
After declaring his desire to play for reigning Premier League champions Chelsea only yesterday,
it would appear that Valencia's highly-rated winger David Silva has undergone a
dramatic change of heart that will see him sign for nouvelle-riche money-merchants Manchester City
for the best part of £30 million in the next few days.
Germany's friendly against Sweden on Wednesday was low on thrills, but it wasn't a waste of
time. Löw sounded justifiably pleased after the match – he acknowledged the obvious, that it was
going to be a low-scoring game from the outset, but he was satisfied and even impressed with how
his debutants had comported themselves.
Dortmund Boys Schmelzer And Hummels Will Look To Make The Right Impression.
Despite it being a midweek friendly that many will immediately dismiss, I'm excited about this
game. Sweden have picked a strong squad, and Germany are always determined and competitive. Also,
this game gives Joachim Loew a chance to see which of Germany's younger stars will be able to make
the step up to the international level.
Khedira Has Caught The Eye Of Real Madrid And Jose Mourinho After A Fantastic World Cup.
Sami Khedira's already impressive career just seems to keep on getting better. From winning the
Bundesliga title with Stuttgart at only 19 years old, to captaining the German U-21 side to
European glory in 2009, to reaching the World Cup semi-final with the German national team in 2010,
to now being considered a transfer target for Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid.
Louis van Gaal's side were lucky to leave the Imtech Arena with anything at all after Die Roten
were outplayed by their hosts for large parts of the match. Bayern Munich's inability to sustain
periods of possession nearly cost them, but some heroic goalkeeping from Hans-Jorg Butt and a
little bit of paint off the woodwork saved Bayern Munich from succumbing to what could have been
their fourth defeat of the season.
After a disappointing pre-season loss today to Bundesliga rivals Schalke, Armin Veh and Hamburg
have their work cut out for them. After finishing in a rather unemphatic 7th place last season, Veh
will be looking to take the club to Europa League qualification at minimum this season.
Ex-Bordeaux Playmaker Yoann Gorcuff Could Be The Man To Put Schalke Out Of Their Misery Tomorrow
Night.
Magath's struggling Schalke side will be looking to turn their recent form around against Ligue
1 big boys Olympique Lyon, but it is likely that Schalke will really be up against it in France
tomorrow night.
Huntelaar Will Look To Continue His Flying Form With Schalke This Weekend.
The Bundesliga returns after a rather slow period of European Championship qualifying matches
and various international friendlies. The third round of Bundesliga matches kicks off with a
mouth-watering tie featuring an in-form Hoffenheim against a pointless Schalke side.
Bundesliga: 1899 Hoffenheim 2-0 Schalke 04 Title contenders eh, Schalke? is a post from: Just
Football
On the evidence of this 2-0 defeat against 1899 Hoffenheim, Schalke
04 will not cause much of a stir in their Champions League group this season. Any watching
scouts from Olympique Lyonnais, Schalke's first opponents, will have wondered what all the fuss is
about.
Injuries Have Clearly Taken Their Toll On Metzelder's Once Reliable Legs.
Hoffenheim hosted Schalke this afternoon and dispatched the visitors and claimed a rather
comfortable three points. A 2–0 result means Schalke are still pointless at the bottom of the
table, and the pressure will certainly continue to pile on Schalke coach Felix Magath, who spent an
impressive amount of money on new recruits this summer.
Der Saisonstart wurde beim FC Schalke 04 mit zwei Niederlagen verpatzt – und das trotz
namhafter Neuzugänge wie Metzelder oder Raul (beide kamen von Real Madrid). Deshalb wurde Schalkes
Trainer und Manager Felix Magath nochmals aktiv auf dem Transfermarkt und verpflichtete Klaas-Jan
Huntelaar, Jose Manuel Jurado und Nicolas Plestan kurz vor Ablauf des Wechselzeitraums.
Miroslav Klose Scores Two And Lays On Two More As Germany Storm Passed Azerbaijan.
Joachim Loew's Germany side never had to get out of second gear against a very physical but very
poor Azerbaijan team. Goals from Heiko Westermann, Lukas Podolski, Holger Badstuber, a double from
Miroslav Klose and an own-goal from Rashad Sadygov capped a very easy performance for Die
Mannschaft.
Joachim Loew has today announced his squad for the upcoming European Cup Qualifying matches
against Belgium and Azerbaijan, and experienced midfield general Michael Ballack has failed to make
Loew's squad.
After Ballack's comments about wrestling the national team captaincy back from Philipp Lahm, he
has become a bit of a disturbance in what has become a very united national team dressing room.
Breve Análisis del equipo Deutschland , Germany, Alemania
Uno de los equipos mas ganadores de toda la historia, permanente aspirante al titulo , a pesar
de no contar con figuras de renombre nuevamente se le considera uno de los 5 favoritos este torneo
mundialista.
Each day for the last two weeks or so I've woken up, done something mildly productive, sauntered
to the general vicinity of a laptop and gone to the guardian's World Cup page with one question:
"which star went down today?". Each day I go with the same hope of Chuckie Sullivan at Will
Hunting's door the hope of nothing but hope, as you may know, is the most devious of foul-letter
words, and someone typically winds up hurt.
German football great Franz Beckenbauer, popularly known as Der Kaiser, said he was not
optimistic about his country's chances of success at the World Cup, in an interview to be published
in the German press on Sunday. Is he managing expectations or is he just being brutally honest?
- Con Alonso no hay nada imposible. Si quiere ganar el mundial tendrá que hacer tres carreras
muy buenas y que Hamilton quede lo mas atrás posible, y hoy a dado un paso adelante al quedar
segundo en la parrilla de salida, a tan solo de 2 milésimas de la pole. El primero fue Vetel y
tercero Masa.
Beim Hamburger SV existiert derzeit ein reges Durcheinander. Der Nationalspieler Heiko
Westermann wurde vom Bundesligisten Hamburgs auf seiner Internetseite als Neuzugang eingetragen,
obwohl eigentlich noch einige Unstimmigkeiten bezüglich des Vertrages existieren. Der
HSV-Sprecher, Jörn Wolf, erklärte, dass sich der Verein bereits mit dem Spieler geeinigt hat und
eigentlich die nächsten Schritte bereits feststehen.
According to Steve Brown at the Evening Chronicle, Schalke 04 defender
Heiko Westermann does not want to leave the club despite interest from
Sunderland. Westermann said,
"I have no interest in leaving, whether it be for Sunderland or any other club .
According to Stuart Rayner at The Journal, Sunderland are interested in signing
Marseille defender Taye Taiwo although Taiwo has expressed his
interest to play for a larger club. Taiwo said,
"If I was to depart, then I would not join a small club .
Is He Sure He's German? Helmes Misses Twice From The Spot.
What a round! Mainz, Borussia Dortmund, Hamburg and Bayer Leverkusen have all been knocked out
of the DFB Pokal tonight after some shocking results. Germany's lower league sides certainly have
shown that they can battle the best of them, but Bundesliga supporters will be dismayed by the
night's events.

Kacar Will Fortify The Midfield With Hamburg This Season After Leaving Recently Relegated Hertha
Berlin.
Serbian starlet Gojko Kacar has today completed a move to Hamburg from recently-relegated Hertha
Berlin. After Hertha were relegated last season, Kacar was linked with all of the biggest clubs in
Europe.
Die Weltmeisterschaft begann vor eineinhalb Wochen in Südafrika – also richten sich die Augen
aller Fußballbegeisterten auf den Kontinent, auf dem zum ersten Mal ein solches Turnier
ausgetragen wird. Doch in der Bundesliga kehrt deswegen trotzdem keine Ruhe ein. Dies liegt zum
einen daran, dass die ersten Teams bald mit der Vorbereitung für die nächste Spielzeit beginnen
oder aber bereits begonnen haben; wie beispielsweise der amtierende Deutsche Meister FC Bayern
München, bei dem heute der Trainingsauftakt anstand.
The official announcement has yet to be made this evening in Germany, but sources of the
Hamburger Abendblatt have strong indications that it is in fact Stefan Kießling who will be going
on vacation without injuries.
One can argue that if true Kießling lost his chance against Malta, and Heiko Westermann's [read
