Not ruining it at all. Gol is weird because the commercials are in Spanish but all of the games are in English, as well as their shows.

gotcha, thank you sir
Brave, ESPN is starting to show signs of that. UCL games had Spanish ATT commercials on during every break. The cultural difference for marketing is hilarious.

I kinda hate Spanish commercials on ESPN.. just like I hate pressing 1 for english when I call a major American company.
But don't mind spanish commercials on GolTV at all.

Ok I thought goltv was only en espanol.
I used to think that too. It looks like many of the programs and commercials are in Spanish, but the Bundesliga games have English-speaking commentators.

What's Bayern's predicted starting Xl as of RIGHT now? (I know the addition of Javi/M'vila could change things)
----------------Gomez---------------
----Ribery-------Kroos------------Robben---
------------Jesus----Gustavo------
Alaba-------Badstuber-----Boateng-----Lahm
-------------------Neuer----------------
Shaqiri coming off the bench as a super sub/ playing for robben when he's hurt. Muller and Pizarro being the other offensive subs with Dante possibly being the primary defensive sub.
Just my thoughts...I think one more major addition could make this team incredibly good.

That's probably about right. Dante will push for a starting job. Robben will get hurt and miss 2-3 months so Shaqiri wil start a lot next season. Mandzukic will probably feature a lot as well. I know Jupp wants to incorporate a second striker into the lineup.

I'd love to see what this team could do if Gustavo was sacrificed for a Gomez and Pizarro/Mandzukic tandem up top. They would be so open to counter attacks though.

It's really hard to come up with a lineup featuring two strikers and two wing players.
Unless it looked something like this
---------------------------------- Jesus ---------------------
----------------------Kroos-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------- Ribery
Robben----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------Mandzukic ------------------------------
---------------------------------------------- Gomez ----------

Nothing like the classic 4-1-1-1-1-1-1 haha I kind of like gustavo playing resident pitch thug but he doesn't have too much of an offensive arsenal. Kroos is coming into his own at the holding mid but I think he's better suited in an attacking role. Obviously robbery out on the wings

Couldn't beat Chelsea ... seriously? 
I was ready to adopt Bayern as my fav German team. Now... 
Oh, and any time I've wanted to watch a German match, I've been able to find an English steam. Atdhenet.tv, firstrowsports.eu, and wiziwig.eu are all good sites to use.

I've seen a 4-1-3-2 before. You have to have a very good holding mid to pull it off though (jesus). And the wings have to be committed to playing defense...which we all know Robben and Ribery won't.
-------------Jesus----------
Robben-------Kroos---------Ribery
----Mandzukic-------Gomez

That would work decently well but I prefer basti to work a little higher up on the pitch, he's certainly capable of the sweeper type role and he'd probably be very good at it. We should be much more set in the depth dept this year. It was decently slim pickings last campaign. I can't wait to watch David Alaba next year. Probably get his jersey, especially if he puts out another bieber karaoke while merging onto what can only be assumed is the autobahn

Best video on the net.
Robben is too lazy to get any defensive responsibilities.

They'll win 2. Bundesliga and come for Bayern in '14. Enjoy your success, Munich fans!
HEIL BERTHA!

Bayern II > Hertha
Speaking of Bayern II, I wonder how long Fabian Hurzeler sticks it out with Bayern. I just don't know if he'll break through to the first team.
And Dale Jennings... I think he started most games but I don't think he scored.

Bayern want Khedira. Real says only if they can get Scweinsteiger. LINK
