TF Fantasy MD12 preview - Are you turkeys ready to get back to work on Friday? Nov 22, 2018

Show notes

A two-week break was just about enough time to recover from one of the most thrilling Klassikers in recent memory - now we’re entering the final stretch of 2018 and there’s not much time left to hoard points before the Bundesliga’s winter hibernation. Is Havertz a must-have on Friday night? Which Bayern players should you back against Düsseldorf and is Michael Gregoritsch fighting fit once again?

Talking Fussball Int'l Break Special - New-look Germany relegated, a closer look at Frankfurt and Gladbach Nov 21, 2018

Show notes

Jogi and the boys had an other disappointing result in the Nations League, leading to a drop in class...but will their renewal project pay off yet?

To figure it out, Matt tracks down his former week-in-week-out partner Abel Meszaros, who tells us what he's been up to this season (HINT: Hungarian TV). They zoom in on the German national team, figure out what makes Eintracht so good, and discuss a few Bundesliga sides with uncertain futures. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

Talking Fussball MD 11 wrap - Klassiker for the ages leaves Bayern adrift in fifth place Nov 13, 2018

Show notes

If it wasn't clear before, it is now. The Bundesliga has a new sheriff in town, and it is Borussia Dortmund. Their comeback win over Bayern kept them top of the league, and pushed the Bavarians all the way down to fifth in the league after Gladbach, Leipzig, and Frankfurt all notched wins.

Matt rounds up Stephan Uersfeld of ESPN to talk over what happened at the Westfalenstadion as well as what went down in the rest of the league as what feels like a new dawn breaks in the Bundesliga. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

TF Fantasy MD11 tips - High end shopping ahead of Der Klassiker, and when to bail on your budget options Nov 08, 2018

Show notes

Dortmund and Bayern are set to square off on Match Day 11, which has set pretty much every Bundesliga fan's heart aflutter - now how can you set up you fantasy team to take advantage of whoever YOU think will win?

JT and Flo are here to talk you through that, as well as advise on whether it might be time to invest in some Nürnberg players...and which bargain-bin players might need to be sent to the plain old bin. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

Talking Fussball – FC Bayern München deep dive with The Athletic’s Joshua Kloke Nov 05, 2018

Show notes

This week’s TF is a little different. Okay, a lot different. This week we don’t have a Match Day 10 wrap, but we do have something that feels urgent after this past weekend’s slate: a look at what’s ailing FC Bayern München, currently in third place.

Matt gets Joshua Kloke, FC Bayern writer for The Athletic, on the line and they go at it for the better part of an hour, trying to get at what’s gone wrong for the club. After a week full of misadventure off the pitch (Rafinha’s crude costume, Lisa Müller-gate, Football Leaks) and on it (another indifferent outing, this time a draw against SC Freiburg), the discussion feels urgent. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

TF Fantasy MD10 preview – Jadon Sancho’s fantasy value, time to buy some Leverkusen players? Nov 01, 2018

Show notes

Marco Reus has been a rock this season at Dortmund, but he’s not exactly cheap – could Jadon Sancho be a cheaper replacement? And with Leverkusen busting loose this week, might it be time to invest in a few B04 players? JT and Flo are back to take on these issues, as well as advise you on which Frankfurt striker to back on Match Day 10. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

Talking Fussball MD9 wrap – BVB and Berlin’s blockbuster draw and a wild one in Bremen Oct 29, 2018

Show notes

Plenty of surprises on MD9 in the Bundesliga, as Dortmund couldn’t quite get the win they wanted at home to Hertha, Eintracht’s winning streak got snapped, and Schalke frustrated Leipzig (not to mention spectators) with some ugly football.

Matt gets MailOnline Bundesliga writer Kit Holden on the line to talk through all that, as well as Leverkusen’s shock slaughter of Bremen – and much more. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

TF Fantasy MD9 preview – Looking for the next big score Oct 25, 2018

Show notes

After a banner weekend in which three players topped 30 fantasy points, the only thing to do is look for the player who can do it next. Join JT and Flo as they give you their thoughts on how to set up your XI to score big on Match Day 9. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

Talking Fussball MD8 wrap – A star is born in Frankfurt, Foals hit their stride against Mainz, Anthony Ujah interview Oct 22, 2018

Show notes

So many good storylines from Match Day 8 in the Bundesliga. Bayern got back to winning in Wolfsburg, Dortmund flipped the script and had a big FIRST half, and Luka Jovic…he’s the new Fussballgott.

Matt Hermann is joined by Matthew Marshall, who had a busy weekend in Germany writing for Fussballstadt at three games. The two Matts chew the fat on all kinds of subjects form the latest round, and we hear a bit of (American) Matt’s chat with Mainz striker Anthony Ujah, available in full to Patreon subscribers to the podcast. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.

TF Fantasy MD8 tips – Gladbach watch, Frankfurt on easy street, and is it Paco time yet? Oct 18, 2018

JT and Flo are on hand as always to give you the lowdown on what went wrong (and right) on MD7 before the break, and how you can get the result for your dreams this weekend. Produced by Aidan Rantoul.
