Three chances created and two assists for Bayern Munich's summer arrival, Ismail Saibari, in a 30-minute cameo vs. Stuttgart. As debuts go, it doesn't get much better than that. Kompany's side with a commanding performance tonight, setting the precedent early on.

Germany out of the World Cup. Another poor performance. It's no less than they deserve. Surely Julian Nagelsmann's future has to be questioned. Massive congratulations to Paraguay.

Have spent the first three minutes watching Elliot Anderson and I just love the way he orchestrates the players around him. So mature for 23.

I'm glad people who don't watch the Bundesliga get to witness Manzambi. Such a baller.

It's my day off today and you may ask what I've been doing (you won't) but anyway, I've gone down a rabbit hole on YouTube and spent 40 minutes on learning about Roger Schmidt and his plans for developing the J.League.

A first Germany goal for Nathaniel Brown, two days before his 23rd birthday, on his first World Cup appearance. Superb finish from the soon-to-be Bayern player.

Kane has scored some terrific goals this season (and in his career), but his second tonight is up there with his best. Superb touch, spin and finish into the bottom corner. Utterly ridiculous.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

Some surprises in Julian Nagelsmann's World Cup squad. Manuel Neuer returns (as widely reported), and there's places for Pascal Groß, Nadiem Amiri, Leroy Sané and Lennart Karl; notable exclusions include Robert Andrich, Jonathan Burkardt, Niclas Füllkrug and Karim Adeyemi.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

Thought Freiburg played well after withstanding early Aston Villa pressure, but you just can't give players who love to shoot from range that much time and space. Absolute banger, though.

010

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

No matter the result tonight, Freiburg and their fans can be incredibly proud as they chase their first major trophy. A club that just seems to do everything right.

Albert Riera lasted all of 14 games at Eintracht Frankfurt. Thought it was an odd appointment in the first place, and I'm sure his replacement won't be as outspoken in press conferences.

I love the way Can Uzun just shifts the ball onto his right foot and gets a shot away. Does it so effortlessly.

How is that not a penalty then.. 😂 All we ask is a bit of consistency.

Lots of things to dislike about modern football, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue, Michael Olise, Jamal Musiala, Luis Diaz and Harry Kane all being on the same pitch at the same time is not one of them.

Leverkusen much improved in the second half but thought they were poor overall. Would have been more for Bayern had it not been for Flekken. They'll play either Freiburg or Stuttgart.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Have spent the last few days in Italy, taking in Inter vs. Cagliari and Hellas Verona vs. Milan - was always a bucket list thing for me to tick off the San Siro before it goes. But very much excited to return to normality with Leverkusen vs. Munich in the DFB Pokal tonight.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Bayern absolutely dominated that second half vs. Real Madrid. Controlled possession, bided their time and frustrated Real. Camavinga's sending off a huge turning point, with Diaz and Olise netting superb late strikes. PSG next as Kompany's charges march on..

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Five goals between Bayern-Madrid from an xG of 2.68. Goalkeeping mistakes at both ends, but this second leg has been an absolute cracker.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 10/03/2026

One-way traffic between Atalanta and Bayern. Kompany's side have been in complete control without needing to get out of second gear (or play Harry Kane).

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

I'm seriously impressed by Mateusz Zukowski in the 2. Bundesliga this season and after a bit of digging, I'm only now realising it's the former Rangers player. He started out at RB before switching to an attacking position at Śląsk Wrocław last season. Now has 11 in 11 for Magdeburg at ST.

Another assist for Julian Ryerson, another goal for Serhou Guirassy. They're picking up momentum at a pivotal time in their season without having to really get out of second gear tonight. Placed themselves in an excellent to advance, but next week in Bergamo will be tough. Next up though, Leipzig.

Borussia Dortmund gathering pace ahead of key Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League showdowns

Guirassy continues his purple patch in front of goal, netting 5 goals in his last 3 Bundesliga games. Commanding performance from Dortmund against an improving Mainz to move to within 3 points of Bayern, who play tomorrow. Title race, on?

I for one am very intrigued just to see how well Riera does.

Hamburg 2-2 Bayern, what a game. How good is Luka Vuskovic? Monstrous defensive display and dangerous in attack. They matched Bayern tonight. Just two defeats in 10 at home this season. That point could be crucial come May.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 23/01/2026

One for the Tottenham fans: we've looked at Luka Vušković's season so far at Hamburg. (Spoiler: He's one of the Bundesliga's best defenders).

Can't say Toppmöller's time wasn't coming. Frankfurt needed to react. It's a shame, because he's done some great stuff at SGE.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 17/01/2026

Leipzig really taking the game to Bayern here, but I hope they don't rue their missed chances. Their attacking quartet: Baumgartner, Diomande, Nusa and Romulo causing all kinds of problems at the back.

Daniel Pinder @danielpinder.bsky.social · 17/01/2026

Hoffenheim have just taken the lead through Wouter Burger. Win today and TSG win six in a row at home. I have to say, their transformation under Ilzer in comparison to last season is tenfold. They're well on a European charge.
