It's very weird and strange, nice to see live game though ?
My son and i were chatting about this. I've been to Munich a good number of times so Bayern stand out. That's too obvious though, like a foreigner in the past following utd ??, so we had to rule it out. In the end we decided our hearts were not in it and so gave up. Based on your post, I'll keep half an eye on Bremen though ?

Good old VAR.
Used to love watching German football when was living out there for a while. Our nearest Bundesliga team was Hannover 96 was so cheap to go watch them or we'd head down to watch Koln. So by default I'll take Koln of those 2 to watch, as its Hannover are in Bundesliga 2 now.

One thing that Impresssed me today was the standard of tackling. I was sceptical about how players would tackle, battle etc but it looked like a normal game.
Roll on the PL ?

Watched Frankfurt get stuffed by Borussia Mönchengladbach and definitely a full paced game with people committed to tackling and close marking at set pieces. I guess it depends what happens this week regarding any infections/testings as to how it proceeds. I hope the PL will come back asap and be just the same

Well looks like the Bundesliga has shown the rest Europe the way forward to get the leagues completed.
It’s clear it’s possible to have competitive games in the current situation so the Prem can restart but it’s a shame for the fans especially season ticket holders who do pay a lot of money to go , hope the clubs look after those people.
I was surprised that some leagues decided finish the league before seeing what could happen but it’s certainly not going to be a voided season

Its not about the players commitment or effort in the Bundesliga yesterday, it’s about their safety, it will only have/will be a success if none of them fall ill.
Fingers crossed they are all fine, but possibly a bit premature to talk about it being a success and showing how it can be done.
On the games themselves, felt like a friendly in parts and found myself switching between the 3 games at times.
Hopefully the PL would be a different matter as I have a more vested interest.

We have no idea what will happen yet unless you’ve looked into the future?

England-Argentina from WC98 on BBC Red Button at the minute. What a first half it's been so far. 2 penalties, wonder goal from Owen, really good game. Not watched it since it was on live, forgot what a good game it was.

Why do I need to look into the future ?
Yesterday showed that competitive football matches can be played in the “current situation” - so in the current situation Premier League can look to start in the coming month

Whilst it’s weird thinking footballers are playing while journos are social distancing in the stands I’ve no doubt the ££ will mean PL is back soon enough.
Haven't looked into it too much, do all players, refs etc have to test negative before they’re allowed to play?
From clips I saw on Twitter it looked as soulless as football can get but isnt driven by that so it’ll be back soon enough I suspect.
weird mix of approaches across European leagues, UEFA comps could be interesting next year!

As Pauldj said, they haven't shown anything until they can show that the disease didn't spread from them playing the games.

Yesterday’s games in Germany was as much proof that football is ready to return as the idiots in Hyde Park were proof that Covid is a hoax.

Did the game not work then ? Was a football match not played to a result ?

Are you pretending to not get the obvious point or do you really not understand?

A football match was played yesterday behind closed doors and didn’t have an affect on the way that the game can be played, to me that shows that the Premier League will be able to played behind closed doors to ensure the season finishes. If you don’t agree with that then that’s your prerogative to have that belief ?

way too early to tell imho, massive range in commitment from players and teams across the games ive watched yesterday and today
obviously a handful of games is enough to ensure some Liverpool fans are 100% ready to restart the premier league, personally jury still a long way out
