Listen PODI IS NOT LEAVING

klinsi loves podi and knows what he can do and where podi performs best

i cant see klins letting podi go considering they really bonded during the world cup

Also in that matter i bealive that klins wants to still see the chemistry between klose and podi

I agree with huggsey , now that klinsman will coach at Bayern ,podolski will want to stay and knows it is most likely that he will have a starting place in the squad next season. We will see podolski at his full potential if he stays for another season, but the main question i have is what will happen with Toni then?

First of all, I know Poldi is not leaving Bayern. Rolling Eyes

I was asking whether the amount of money that Man. City was willing to pay for him a little high? I think so. Plus, I was posting an article that confirm the rumor of Man. City's interested in Poldi, which has been going around a a week or a little more.

Secondly, Poldi does not deserve a starting place because of how he played under Klinsmann a few years ago and just because Klinsi likes him. To give a player a position for those stupid reasons would cause some internal discord within the team and this team does not need that. Poldi will have to earn a starting position just like everyone else. So far, he has not really deserve the starting position.

I do think Poldi would start to improve under Klinsmann. However, I have to agree with the management on this one...Poldi had to adjust to them and not the other way around. Now, that Klinsmann is coming he won't have to do a lot of adjustment.

I agree with you FCB 4Eva...I would keep it as Klose and Toni, at least for now. Perhaps Klinsmann will do some rotation with the strickers when he gets here but that is just as long they deserve to start.

First off i never said podi was going to be givin a starting role on this team, Never said it. what i said is that klinsi will look foward to having klose and podi show the same excitiment on the pitch as they showed in the world cup, i never said anyone was going to be getting a starting role withought earning it, i mention what formation i would do

Second thing you can't say that the best formation for bayern is the 2-4-4- thats really the only formation we have seen that way pluse if u look at the championship teams hitzfield has coached thats the way he runs his club

If you watch bayern munich play you will often see ribery or schweni go along the side and cross the ball there is two things that can happen in that situation, ! they score off a header or 2 the attackers give up the ball.

I play for the hota bavarians in the cosmopoliton league and weve won the league 3 times out of the last 4 years and our club was also invited to participate in the Manchester United premier cup and for thoses of you who dont know what that is it's basically the biggest youth tournement in the world with around 5,000 from many countries and our edge over many teams in that tournement was that we had three men in the box and now listin when you have three men in the box thoses two corner men are great for keeping the ball in the box when the ball is crossed!!!!!!

Not to mention it would work great ofr our team thing about it???

Klose? Hes an amazing header he would benefit

Toni? hes good all around he would score when the ball is being scrubed around in the box

Podi? podis greatest move is where his back is towards the net and he turns quickly and fires with a defender on him he did it so many times in the world cup and it was very succesful and if you watched podi's days in cologne you would see that podi did that move many times

so back to my point with the three attackers the more bodies we have in the box the higer chance we have of scoring its jsut that simple

pluse you might say HI our defense is weekend with one less middi i dont think that is correct considering i bealive lucio is world class and so is sagnol
and lahm and demechelis??? there preatty much up there

LOL!! First of all, when I said that Poldi should not be given a starting because of his history with Klinsmann it was address to the other poster, hence that is why I said secondly and did not include in the first part of my statement. I respended to yours first because all capital letters means you are yelling.

Now, I do watch Bayern and that is why I am a fan. I didn't know I became a fan because I liked the colors but never seen the team played. Laughing

But I agreed with FCBEva because, at the moment, we do not know what Klinsmann is going to do or even if he'll use Poldi a little differently, so let's keep Toni and Klose for now. We'll find out soon as to how Klinsmann is going to run this team. Heck, we can not even be sure who will be with the team next season. Klinsmann has already given Uli a list of players that he definitely wants to keep (I like to see that list personally).

Off topic but here is my posting manner... if I want to respond directly to one post I will use the quote button more often than not, but sometimes not if I post right after the poster. However, if I am addressing more than one post then I won't use the quote button.

BTW...don't get me wrong, I like Poldi but I don't think he was all that great in the WC. He won that award by default. If C. Ronaldo hadn't done any of his antics then he would have won. Plus, I think Klose made Poldi look good at times. It wasn't like Poldi looked good on his own all the time but more because of Klose. (And no, I am not talking about looks here).

Klinsi has only coached one team and although he was highly critized he was succesful when it mattered most. i would actually agree i would like to see the list of players

But i cant bealvie you just said that podi was givin the best young player award by default??? podi was exciting to watch he scored 3 goals throughout the whole tournement, CRonaldo? sure portuagal played very good and were really impressive but you cannont say cronaldo had a better tournement then podi. Ronaldo only scored 1 goal throught out the tournemnt. On the portugal team you couldnt say there was really one player on the team that carried them at least satiisticlly because nobody really scored many goals. Figo was the leader on that team

But you have to remember as for germany klose was the main goal scorer on the team and in the tournement hence why he was the winner of the golden boot. Klose didnt just make podi good he made the whole national team look good. And podi was his own player he steped up when it was needed forinstance in the game agianst sweeden in round of 16. Klose made the whole team look good and podi added to that! the number dont lie

Goals??? You have to be joking?? Poldi deserved it because he scored 3 goals, which if I remember correctly two were set up by Klose who made him look good in the end, to C. Roanldo's one. I'm not a big fan of C. Roanldo but I will give him credit because he was more involved in the attack of the team and overall play, not just goals. if it was based on goals then Klose should get that award too. He deserved it more than anyone else. IMO, Klose was more exciting than Poldi. Poldi was only exciting when he scored but, overall, not that exciting. With Klose on the Bayern team then Poldi should start looking better. But, that is if he has forgiven Klose for that negative comment last month.

Don't get me wrong, I like Poldi but I'm not afraid to call it like I see. If I'm not impressed then I am going to say and stand by it. I may be a blond but I am not a dumb cookie. Of course, Mark might say otherwise...LOL!!

BTW....that award was a joke anyway, IMO. Why do always created awrds that in many ways are so unnecessary?

1st of all, Poldi shouldnt be starting any games atm and even when Klinsmann comes in, it shouldnt matter that Klismann was manager of the national side and there for just automatically put him in the starting 11.

Secondly, he has to earn his place in the team and so far he has not done that, now I dont know if next year we will see a difference in Poldis play or approach (sincerly hope we do) becuase of his relationship with the new man in charge but he simply has to pull his finger out and start performing.

He knew it would be difficult coming to a club of Bayerns size, he surely didnt expect to walk straight into the 1st team and he needs to wait his turn, he has been very unlucky this year with the form of Toni an Klose, but as he showed against Bolton in Uefa cup he is cappable of some great displays, and he needs to buckle down and try hard in training whoevers at the helm.

FCB 4EVA Very Happy

I'm with you, FanofBayern. At that time, I wanted Poldi to win the award because I was irritated with C. Ronaldo's antics. But, looking back on it now I think it was clear that Ronaldo was the better 21 and under player.

I also agree with FCB 4Eva on that Poldi knew it would be difficult at Bayern. Bayern is a big time club with a lot of pressure, more pressure than the German NT (I think). I wonder if winning that award and everyone making such a fuss over him that he ended up getting a big head and didn't think that he really needed to work for his place at the team? I wonder if he felt that Bayern would adjust to him and not the other way around. Unfortunately, if that was his attitude than that attitude bit him in the a**. Now, he has to work even harder to prove his worth.

I remember last year I used to defend him for his lackluster play. I said I do believe some of the fault was with Magath, and I still believe that, but I think the other problem was himself. I was hoping Klose would've knocked some sense in him but recently Klose made a comment directed towards him and Bastian so I don't know what is going on there.

First of all, this thread is about Poldi not C. Ronaldo. Secondly, there's more to the game than statistics. If you just look at statisitcs then you might as well not even look at the rest of the team. If it was gone by statistics then the award should be called the Golden Boot for the 21 and Under Award, but that award is not supposed to be based on just goals. It's supposed to be based on everything. Poldi might have gotten more scores due to Klose, but Rondalo has the footwork, the speed, Heck, you can include Messi in that also. Unfortunately for Messi, he got screwd by his coach. LOL!!

The interesting thing is look at these players' success since the WC. Ronaldo and even Messi have been very successful at their teams. Poldi on the other hand has not. Granted, he got benched by Magath but when he was finally given an opportunity to start under Hitzfeld last season he still didn't do much. Perhaps that "award" was a curse?

Anyway, I am done talking about this because we simply disagree and I do not plan on changing my perspective on this.
