By such a large margin has taken a huge effort. A huge effort indeed to stay motivated if the year we feel we can match for a match and to always have to win sure thats more than commendable but is their constant dominance in the lay down to their superiority all their opponents are just too weak. To govern they say bye and win the championship automatically but theres a lot of work that goes into it dont. We take a look back at the season with two buy and legends on my hitzfeld and loads i must say yes. Because the bye bye bye and youve got a built in cycle guarantee on the. Line season wasnt all sunshine and rainbows the champions had their fair share of frustration as well. But here we kick up well show you how they once again seem to be. It off without any effort. By in season ended with confetti atrophies just as it has done in the last few days. To be top of the pile on stage thirty four games and get your hands on the trophy much chance an emotional moment and one that you save into the fold. And they surely just have to celebrate their championship but at some point we cant help but ask ourselves if the punters league getting boring. July twenty seventh see the preseason trip to china and singapore the noisy reception when the champs warmed up for the season playing against the top english and italian clubs in the International Champions cup. I mean were playing high class opponents these games and i walk in the pocket. The ambition was there but it didnt go well for by games played and i need one win to show for it. I i am not in less than optimal preseason to my home the alarm bells were already bringing i mean. We cant lose we can draw upon are a big club the mentality is always to waste. But i was not there is certainly a warning against complacency now were just looking forward to the next game and the chance to get back on track. Of that sort of look thats a stage than the super cup against the first taste of success with pine for the face is a classic current on telly so i misread three guys and sebastien rudi i had a shootout victory helped restore the preseason balance. I. We played a couple of really bad games so it was really important for us to come back here lets me you could sense the pressure over the past few days. Weve brought it partly on our sounds with our patchy preparations but you sure that will to win now that today as he gets religion up on a three because they have. To up all this world to win by an appointed has to have is it just saying director last summer nickname brazile he has nine years on the books as a player. I always gave one hundred percent every Training Session every game and ill take the same approach to the job as sporting director for the director again. And i think we have a church is a good motivator you could also focus well on performance related matters. Because you understood she has some moves learn a lot from early her Nissen Carnes woman and shes a lawyer and he will also be looking to contribute some good ideas of his own. And sally happens it was put to the test right away working close together with coach carlo and. Buying kicks off the lake with back to back victories but their form remained an issue. We dont play much to moment but i hope the next games will be better. If. We do have different. Beliefs. You have to improve. I think we just play too complicated. Far from improving by and last to know that hoffenheim much take three defeats in a League Campaign since twenty eleven. Years treated everyone so annoyed in the changing room the players the coach everybody looking over americans as if to buy the buy and express was not to speak not playing well you dropping points for this. Storm and for. The head of the table by an fell behind putting coach and she lost c. In the firing line. Until. She had left out Thomas Miller at the start of the season was very was often on the bench and the robin was being switched from one track to the other until she was experimenting too much stead of having to play as if you find they turned recently against him. After a six League Match Days and the three male Champions League lost at paris and it was time for a change. You might have to make money off the infamous english but i know ive hiked on you could sense the team in coach were no longer working as one of the line up in paris certainly raised a few eyebrows. Giving preferences new Young Players a more experienced ones in some key positions the last straw really. Seems a complicated human puzzle it needs a lot of empathy and she loved somewhat neglected that side of things and it proved to be his downfall. So for him sometime this knocked the need a lot of you know on the night of that defeat the management decided it would be and she lotties last game in charge even with no replacement lined up but. Will emerge the stronger from this still early in the season and we still want to be champion. And so a new coach was found or rather an old familiar one. Memories from five years ago instantly returned when your pint has steered by into an unprecedented travel the biggest success in the clubs history. That would have been the perfect ending to his career back then at the age of sixty eight with the emotional sendoff at his Home Town Club munching gladbach. The spot that was the perfect. Way to round everything out as wonderful as it gets. But all of a sudden he was back as if he never left starting out much they ate he was back for his fourth stint in charge. So i think were in agreement that your this is the ideal man for this task. Because has vast expertise also in terms of his Man Management and hes a perfectionist. So nice find the best buys hes one of the best and wisest decisions bind have made in decades. My job here is to reform a team one thats really playing and working together again. Despite the difficult situations on confidence well manage to get back on track. And thats exactly what he did two solid victories over fribourg and hamburg helped restore them and put the chance back on track thats. Why. I think. It sparked a fair bit of euphoria is that if were all happy us back into hes a great coach very experienced and he knows exactly what hes doing some off by and shine once again against their top domestic rivals the previous seasons runners up like jake were beaten back to back in the german cup and the league. And then came back classic with a three one triumph dortmund are you. From trailing behind within four weeks by and pulled ahead and over hold their rivals at the top of the table they didnt even have to be in top form to dominate the league get yet back on track but nothing more than that we have to stay with both feet on the ground the only thing is we can be very very happy because they were fighting points behind in their three or four weeks we are six points clear so thats something if you would. Three or four weeks ago i would say youre crazy but we did it. Because your high just did what was necessary to players back in the positions that suits them best. Since doing what suits him best as usual. Going for that. I would never post because i help. The flourish. Is not good hes there when you need him he makes himself available and he can hold on to the ball up from one of the best strike us in the world and you see just every game. Always school he said complete Center Forward package. Also flourishing again. Responding in hour of neat after a word from the coach who knows him well from that time together. I. Desire to say i told him i wasnt satisfied with his overall physical condition. He didnt completely share that view but since then hes been trying to give a different undoes. Im scoring again. Against. His five hundred when i was a player and. He was ok but he picks it up actually puts the record champions in front even in defeat. Was among the science finest thanks to hunker. Down and he knows virtually every player here and hes won everything with. Something to help. You find his found the right woods for every player. Rather than laying down the law or he took them up again. That restored sense of confidence has been key to find success since hines. And discourage. Hard. Despite the rocky start to the season by and went into the winter break at the top of the table with an eleven point lead. And that was even with the number two goalkeepers spent all right playing most of the time a replacement for time well keeper of the year. Im no manuel neuer im a keeper in my own right so ill do my best in these places where the shit will never be one hundred percent because manuels the world number one. Fine without neuer for much they fight to stand it all right have the old initial mishap but he swiftly grew into the role finds you number one got better with each match despite the enormous pressure that comes with the task of filling in. His prevent to discover behind in a few games hes been excellent. Im very satisfied with his performance level still improving makes. The trip just got in the last month before the winter break. Spent all right the champions were leading into additional time when she took the penalty and a chance to equalise. I said i still do but im not that familiar with the timing of the shots and some. Of the traditions money being booed was disappointing and having been here so long. He was very professional didnt let himself be provoked and put in a. Sort of im happy all the same a last minute save to help my new team to three important point. Lets talk about manuel neuer also speaks volumes with. With said the new found rhythm by and well unstoppable even at the may. Season points. As dortmund fell out of step there went even any other contenders back from the winter break by and picked up right where theyd left off i one player stood out in particular as ridgeway guess i think opportunity for i guess i think i. Think that was i think thinking like to think a fight the window it was a nice goal scored a few nice goals and this ones definitely right up there with them. And im very happy to have been able to do my bit for the team. Because i was a witness i. Now fully atlanta ties to the bundesliga and maintaining his form in the games that followed a great all round performance from the colombian star. Hes got an incredible life and the feel for how the situations going to develop because it has also given him the requisite assurance and self belief in one to one conversations to keep him to see kids even in pursuit English PatientThomas Thomas is a creative player one who sets the tone and the middle of the pitch. Wanted to get out hes a coach who puts his trust in you hes been in the field of business a long time and i try to learn something from him every day because hes a coach with a lot of experience he has to pass on to his players as with any book i mean its in your mind you know. Whether hes doing the rounds of the local fan clubs at a shootout challenge with how much. Or i dont tell you the best. Habits retreat gas has learned quickly in his new surroundings. Not just off the pitch but also on it how does rodriguez or. If the german top flight can then all the who can see hes also learned to travel back for the things that he thinks some of the internal pecking order as well as making him tough for humans to pin down but a fitting gig in the previous season by him were criticized for going most of the season with only one striker so in winter if i had made a notable signing bringing strikers under about an hour from hoffenheim back to his hometown club. By a small amount of mine have always been my team my club personally its incredible to be home again. Made his bundesliga day before by him in august two thousand and seven over a decade later in january twenty eighth seen his First League Goal for them against his former employers. Son dr. Universe i think im the best german striker whatever the stats i have to play well for germanys best club. And he settled in very well as dynamic dangerous. Even though his promotion to the German National team didnt exactly work out the second sound with his strong buy and mentality in the name of doing something i grew up with in the prison off the books and to get a feel for the whole mentality we are who we are its more than a slogan on a t. Shirt its a very particular feeling here at the club or you soak it up as a youngster and give me a son mia we are who we are. The club couldnt buy ins d. N. I. Embodied in seasons past by the likes of philip long after they retired others had to step up to carry the torch usually to make one in march the fast rising star penned a contract extension through to twenty twenty three. Can hear my mother World Class Club here with a world class t. V. Show every day i have the chance to learn from the best and play with the best. Commish comes across well in interviews he has a charisma about him and a good. Hes a search isnt happy to take responsibility for all his youth thats how great leaders develop in football. And the office of the kite. With all due respect to philip. Hes always been forgotten thanks to the Quality Commission brings to both buy in and the National Team as an attacking threat i think mr just takes even favre commish has a blog that wonderful. With hank is back at the helm having much seen as also underwent a personal renaissance as deep midfield lynchpin shades of twenty thirteen while the front kings the command was another player transformed and the record chants kept racking up the wins my trainer team on my Coaching Team and all the stuff are doing a great job players are responding well to be gutsy and theyre hungry for success and it shows the football life like moments does was for. The victory much continued almost without interruption until much day twenty seven when last seasons runners up abhi lights they gave the munich allstars a red tape to defeat. The suspense its not the end of the world to lose here against such a good team and much of thats a possibility you have to reckon with. On the rate bound by and were up against arch rivals dortmund deck last ika take two for the season this time also with home advantage. I am going to stay. I. Think i. Thought it was i. I. Think. Its ok i think if you try to get shot at. I. Know what the Top European League does the gap between the number one and two clubs seems sort of like this in the bundesliga. In the first half especially when you put on quite a show. Because it was a real lesson for dormant. And the most important match is its still the older more experienced players that usually make the difference like frankly very. Im still hungry i always want to win. A world class player i can carry on to an advanced age group varies in that exceptional category. He still has a feel for the situation passing dribbling combining hes great for the fans for buy in and the bonus league in that from where brees got another contract extension. On the twenty ninth matchday still with six matches left in the season the title was already in the bag signed sealed and delivered with a b team for one win it. Three various championship number eight with bae and just one more than his long term partner down the right our young robin whos also penned a new deal. Thats why he thinks its great fun to be out there with him on the pitch we have a very good understanding we can combine really well and weve been through so much together. Here makes me quite proud to. Brown for sure finds a family with a riverine robben out there i think the fans are happy. And theyve been ten years of the club. Where else do you get that these days. Above all their players. Of outstanding quality and and professional to a degree ive really experienced as a country to employ two of the ribbon rather not finished yet with trophy hunting for by and its the twenty eighth time they finish top in abundance league so do we have to get used to seeing this image with buying in there try face when it comes to the bundesliga the answer is yes by and are just too good. For them says author was released on to the season to finish top by such a large margin has taken a huge effort very commendable one of the more often you win the title and that six in a row for the less its appreciated. Because it was a foregone conclusion because theyre the best theyre bound to win a month so its down to a lot of hard work. For you celebrate every title with your team mates the fans and the management it was always a great party and a great experience to win the title has little to. The bone does legal title no other club in germany has been able to claim it for quite a long time finds astounding athletic and financial stance thanks in part to international t. V. Money is just far beyond the others and their overpowering position at the moment also has a lot to do with their firing power the big transfers in recent years made all the difference especially levelled off skate it was the leagues top goal scorer for the third season running. So was there to do it seeing the munich boys pour beer over themselves is getting tiresome i didnt even get to drink it because they had to think about the next Champions League match. Nonetheless youre playing to say theres another title hes steady hand did the trick to bring by him back on course mostly hunkers just knew how to put the right players in the right positions and then there was nothing to stand in the. And the next primary in be a shower. In celebration after the final match they buy in chairman carl hines ruben again put it this way the clover decline is europes fault spell in charge of this club and i think his tremendous qualities are just shone through as ever since their course of the above and beyond that i believe youre also done Something Special this time as hes given the club back a bit of its own d. N. A. So you suck my ds a d. M. So we could be on the high end because the championship seemed to be an no brainer but how will it be without him. As the old coach is moving out nico come back she is moving in the car that she will be a return to pastures all this summer. Just the pedigree he was here two years a supply of. Coverage may thirty four League Appearances for buying between two thousand and one and two thousand and three now he signed a three year deal to manage touchline can he hold high and High Expectations when losing is not an option. Im not the least bit worried because shown at frankfurt he can improve a team and you can compare franco with by and let me know if thats the. Coco branch as
