The rumor has been that he's going to Bayern for a while. Tweezy told me today that Mandzukic is gonna go to Juventus if we end up with Bobby

Did he have some type of BM clause? I never understood how they sell one of their best to not only their big rival, but also the main contender for the title.

Two in a row.
It's like they're cashing out of championship runs. As a BVB fan, it's fricking maddening!

The club told him they'd sell him to Bayern but then changed their mind or something so now he refuses to sign an extension or agree to a transfer anywhere else. He'll probably go to Bayern on a free.
ETA - Also, BVB's biggest rival is Schalke.

Maybe your team shouldn't say shite like "we can't have a Pole as our highest paid player" to a dude from Poland you're trying to keep happy.

No shite, huh? fricking Germans.

Shame really, I mean a two team league is bad enough a one team league should just go ahead and fold.
Honest question, for a country with the size and passion for the game and a relatively strong economy why does Germany/Bundesliga not make more of a commitment to being good?

Seems like its time to sell off the big players and reinvest... start again.. could get some serious coin for Reus, Hummels and Gundogan (get Sahin back permanent in RM deal)

The Bundesliga, for the most part is competitive, the English and French leagues have the market cornered on Russian and Arab sugar daddy's... Most cant compete with the money they throw around, simple as that..

I have wet dreams about Reus. Too bad him in a Liverpool shirt is just that. Worse than a pipe dream.

Not at the top.

I get that but my question is why? Why are none of these guys going to Germany?

they bring in a boat load of cash every year. they don't really need to start over at all. i believe Reus is the only player left in their squad who has a buyout clause in his contract. they could easily win the bidding for Diego Costa and not would not miss a beat next season.

I think with those 3 players leaving, they would still have a decent core... and a lot of cash to bring in young players..
I think Costa is a pipe dream, from what I understand, they cant offer the wages of the EPL... I could be wrong, but thats what I seem to read... Also, AM to BVB is a step backwards in this season... only reason for him to leave AM, in Jan., is money.. Whether he wants more or AM needs it...
Also, in regards to the Bundesliga, I dont think they generate near the money that the EPL does on TV deals... Does anyone know how they split up?

The Bundesliga is in very good shape financially, and new TV deals will only improve that position. BvB's revenue is right around 200m euros/yr. They were 11th in the world using 2011/12 finances. Considering their growth and their leagues growth, seems very reasonable to think that they surpassed juve and are in the top ten now. they could certainly afford Costa's wages if they wanted to. Don't think anyone gets him in January, but it seems very likely he'll be off in the summer.
