The German champions are off to their worst start to a Bundesliga season in 31 years, winning just two of their opening six games as Klinsmann's side followed up a 5-2 home hammering by Werder Bremen with a shock 1-0 loss at Hanover at the weekend. Click to continue reading...

I've thought for months about how I would write a post lauding Landon Donovan.  And I've come up with very little because, frankly, the guy leaves me speechless.  I know there are other, better, players in the world today.  There's just something about Donovan though.

Bayern Munich's manager Juergen Klinsmann knows Landon Donovan well. After all both are Southern California residents and Klinsmann had spent much of his time before taking the Germany manager job advising the Los Angeles Galaxy on football matters.

Bayern Back on Form

Bayern Munich coach Juergen Klinsmann can invest in a few new Buddha statues for the team's locker room after hammering Hertha Berlin 4-1 for the Bavarians' first win of the season. After two lackluster draws, the victory puts Bayern within two points of league leaders Schalke 04.

Subotic and Dortmund Down Bayern Munich 2-1

15
Borussia Dortmund's new head coach Juergen Klopp made a good impression with the BVB fans last night as his new-look team beat Bayern Munich 2-1 in the preseason T-Home Super Cup. Included in the starting 11 was young American defender Neven Subotic whom Klopp brought with him from FSV Mainz.

Subotic looked nervous during the early going but started to show his stuff in the 26th minute with a terrific 45-meter pass to Delron Buckley to set up a dangerous chance for BVB. Click to continue reading...

On a Roll to Managerial Stardom?

0
It is a ritual almost as old as time itself. One that instantly drums up interest, one that immediately stirs up rumour and counter-rumour.
