RB Leipzig

[Nymzee]

Simakan out for €40m+, this lad in for €25m. Good business sense but I’ll miss Mo; top player and the most popular guy in the squad. Just glad he isn’t going to Liverpool.

Still praying someone else comes tomorrow.

 

[Nymzee]

Signing some kid. No idea.16.

Geertruida flew in this morning so just waiting on official announcement.

 

[Nymzee]

Geertruida announced. Deal up to 2029 for a base fee under €20m which is a right bargain. Simakan going to Saudi but won't be announced for a bit (their window is open till 2nd).

 

[Nymzee]

Bye Mo. Will miss you

RBL Matchday

2nd game of the season has arrived and an immediate massive test with an away trip to the champions. Leverkusen have strengthened over the Summer and Orban is missing so this game is going to be brutal but should be a good watch and you can expect goals. Rose looks to have gone to the dreaded back 3 formation to match what Alonso does but it always makes me nervous. Hradecky is out for them but you just know Mukiele will come on and score the winner. I'd definitely take a point.

Game is LIVE from 17.30pm on Sky Sports Football

0-0

Haidara knocked out cold mid air from a bicycle kick attempt from Boniface. Rough. Been end to end so far.

0-0

And now Marco Rose sent off for giving the ref an earful. He got booked loads least season. Really needs to mature and calm down. This game is rough enough as it is.

 

[Nymzee]

0-0

Sesko misses an absolute sitter to take the surprise lead.

 

[Nymzee]

1-0 Leverkusen

Absolute suicide header from Klostermann. Why are my teams so awful today.

 

[Nymzee]

2-0

Game over. Leverkusen are far too good and Leipzig can’t defend without Orban. This back 5 formation should never be seen again though.

 

[Nymzee]

2-1 HT

Where the eff did that come from? Kampl completely free right in the centre of the goal heads it in.

 

[Nymzee]

2-1

Hmm, Lukeba scores a header, ruled out for offside because Sesko (who was) attempts to connect with it but it's not in the keepers vision so unsure why it's ruled out?

 

[Nymzee]

2-2

Now it's an equalizer. Openda with his first of the season. Probs offside though knowing VAR.

Note: both games last season ended 3-2 Leverkusen so we know where this is going.

 

[Nymzee]

3-2 Leipzig!!!

Openda smashes one in from the edge of the box. Leverkusen have weirdly gone super flat second half - no complaints BUT they are Laterkusen so this isn't done.

 

[Nymzee]

3-2 FT

Don’t know how but the reverse Everton occurred! From 2-0 down to winning 3-2 away to the champions. Leverkusen were incredible first half, shocking second, dunno if they passed a spliff round at halftime or something.

Goarn boys!
