1. For the game against cologne I’d hope for a win and that pavlovic can play again so he gets some Playtime before arsenal.

2. Foound this piece of shit article… This is all BS right? See article below.

   “…has so far shown little inclination to extend or improve as his profile grows.” The hell do they mean by that? Shown little inclination to improve? What, are they implying that he hasn’t tried to get better because of the situation at the club? I just don’t understand the meaning of that. 😀

   ***Manchester City a step ahead of rivals in chase for Jamal Musiala***

   *Signing the Bayern Munich midfielder woud be seen as a huge coup for Pep Guardiola’s side*

   *Manchester City are one of a number of major European clubs considering a move for Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala in the summer, with the interest of the English champions more advanced than rivals.*

   *The 21-year-old has become one of the most highly-rated playmakers on the continent but wants guarantees about the German club’s ability to compete, amid a frustrating season.*

   *Musiala’s contract runs until 2026, and he has so far shown little inclination to extend or improve as his profile grows. There is a belief among other clubs that he may be buyable this year or next, with City the most interested.*

   *The club’s hierarchy want to specifically improve their attacking areas this summer, especially as Phil Foden moves into a more influential role and Kevin De Bruyne advances into his mid-thirties. City want two players who can fluidly play in a few areas of the forward line, and there is also interest in West Ham United’s Lucas Paqueta and Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise.*

3. Just saw the video of Liverpool fans leaving the stadium as they were losing yesterday and i realised that’s so typical of premier league fans. When Bayern loses even 5:1, I have never seen the fans leave the stadium, they start singing even more to motivate the players.

4. The 1 real obstacle in Leverkusen’s way of a treble was always Liverpool. There are still 90 minutes to play in that tie against Atalanta, but there is a real chance Leverkusen could win 3 trophies without losing a match this season.

5. Would you rather play City or Real in the semi-finals? I personally would choose Madrid over City any time of day. Real is a manageable team with far worse players overall than City. 

6. If Stanisic decides to leave to Leverkusen permanently this summer we better charge them 30m or maybe get a discount on Wirtz. Personally I don’t want him to go because that’s basically my 3atb dream gone but I’d understand the decision

7. How do we protect the left side against Saka with Gnabry and Davies out? This might be controversial, but I’d go with Laimer on the LW. He has experience out wide for both RB and the Austrian NT, he’s defensively very solid, has the pace in transitions and would also Musiala to drift wide when we hold possession.
