Bundesliga Team Of The Week: Round 5

Quote:
Mathew Burt runs the rule over the best in Germany from the weekend’s fixtures in Round 5 of an exciting Bundesliga.

The weekend witnessed some fantastic football with some absolutely outstanding individual and team performances. Werder Bremen humiliated Bayern Munich 5-2 at the Allianz Arena, while Bayer Leverkusen hit five past a helpless Hannover on Friday.

Schalke gained a 1-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt to keep up their fine start and move top of the league thanks to Hamburg’s 3-0 loss to Wolfsburg. Hoffenheim returned to their early season form with a 4-1 win over Borussia Dortmund while Stuttgart triumphed in the Baden-Württemberg derby with a 3-1 win over Karlsruher.

Goalkeeper

(1) Dennis Eilhoff (Arminia Bielefeld)

Bielefeld kept a clean sheet for the first time this season against Köln and one of the major reasons for that was keeper Eilhoff. He was on top form throughout the 90 minutes and denied Novakovic in the second half with a fine parry.

Defenders

(2) Michael Kadlec (Bayer Leverkusen)

The Czech defender signed from Sparta Prague made his first start of the season against Hannover and was highly impressive. The young left back kept things tight at the back and ventured forward well to join in with a potent Werkself attack giving Bayer plenty of width alongside fellow full back Gonzalo Castro.

(3) Naldo (Werder Bremen)

The giant Brazilian enjoyed himself against Bayern after Werder’s inconsistent start to the season. The back line has come under some criticism in the early part of the season, but Naldo hit back with a strong defensive performance which saw him shut out both Luca Toni and Lukas Podolski. He capped a fine display with Werder’s second goal of the game.

(4) Alexander Madlung (Wolfsburg)

Defender Madlung kept his place in Felix Magath’s defence after an impressive showing in the midweek Uefa Cup game and was once again one of Wolfsburg’s top players. He helped keep thins tight at the back against a dangerous Hamburg side and ventured forward well, scoring the second of the game in a 3-0 win.

Midfielders

(5) Renato Augusto (Bayer Leverkusen)

Leverkusen put on a magnificent display on Friday to beat Hannover 5-0 at the Bay-Arena and Brazilian midfielder Renato Augusto was one of the main architects behind their dominance. While the whole team played fantastically well, it is worth picking out Renato as the key midfielder in their sublime performance. He seemed to have it all- dream passes, tantalising crosses and great shooting. No wonder he is being dubbed the ‘new Kaka’.

(6) Mesut Özil (Werder Bremen)

Werder celebrated a marvellous 5-2 win over rivals Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena and young midfielder Mesut Özil was arguably the Man of the Match for Thomas Schaaf’s side. The 19 year old scored a tremendous third goal for the ‘Green and Whites’ and peppered a fine game with some great passing, vision and shooting.

(7) Diego (Werder Bremen)

The general rule is that when Diego plays well, Werder play well and that was in evidence on Saturday against Bayern. While the whole team played well and Mesut Özil stole the show a little, Diego was on top form pulling the strings that allowed Werder to score five.

(8) Sejad Salihovic (Hoffenheim)

The Bosnian midfielder put in a fine display against Dortmund as Hoffenheim returned to the form they showed in their opening two games and climb to second in the table. He curled in a superb direct free kick in the first half to help Ralf Rangnick’s side on their way.

Forwards

(9) Markus Rosenberg (Werder Bremen)

Although the Bayern defence must take some of the blame for their 5-2 loss to Werder, Swedish striker Markus Rosenberg did what all good forwards do, and was on hand to profit when it counted. His cool finish opened the scoring and he then added another in the second half following moment of madness from Michael Rensing. He now has four goals in five games.

(10) Vedad Ibisevic (Hoffenheim)

With five games gone this season the Bundesliga leading scorer is not Luca Toni, Mario Gomez or Kevin Kuranyi, but Vedad Ibisevic of newly promoted Hoffenheim with six goals in five games (joint with Patrick Helmes). The Bosnian grabbed a double against Dortmund which isn’t bad from a player who started the campaign at the third choice striker at the club.

(11) Patrick Helmes (Bayer Leverkusen)

New Leverkusen striker Patrick Helmes has a very bright future ahead of him. He was unlucky to be omitted from the final German squad for Euro 2008, but his early season form puts him ahead of the likes of Miroslav Klose and Mario Gomez. He helped himself to a hat trick against Hannover on Friday and terrorised their defence all night with his pace. He even set up the Werkself’s opener for team mate Simon Rolfes.

Formation: 3-4-3

Quote:
Eilhoff

Kadlec Naldo Madlung

Renato Özil Diego Salihovic

Rosenberg Ibisevic Helmes

Honourable mentions:

As always there are a number of players, who deserve a special mention despite having not made it into the final XI.

I could be forgiven for not just picking the entire Team of the Week from Bayer Leverkusen and Werder Bremen; such was the quality on show from those two sides this weekend. As it is they have to be content with seven of the eleven places on show. Suffice to say that the rest of those players deserve an honourable mention.

Artur Wichniarek continued his good early season form for Bielefeld against Köln, while Rafinha and Jefferson Farfan were solid performers for Schalke as they went top of the table. Josip Simunic played well for Hertha Berlin, while the only Bayern player to come away with any real credit was substitute Tim Borowksi.

Bundesliga Weekend Preview: Round 6

Quote:
After some exciting midweek Cup games, the Bundesliga is back this weekend with some interesting matches in store. Bayern will want to make amends for last week against Hannover, while Werder will be looking to continue where they left off at the Allianz Arena. Goal.com previews all the weekend action.

1 FC.Köln – Schalke

Köln held out for 74 minutes last weekend against Bielefeld before going down to a 2-0 defeat at the Schüco Arena. That was their third loss in five games so trainer Christophe Daum will want to see at least a point against high-flying Schalke.

Daum may switch back to a 4-2-3-1 formation to combat Schalke and it could well be that Brecko starts at right back with Broich going into central midfield. Striker Manesseh Ishiaku is still out injured while captain Umit Ozat is also still on the sidelines.

The Königsblauen continued their fine start to the season last weekend against Frankfurt even though they did make rather hard work of beating ten men after Chris was sent off for Eintracht in the first half. An own goal from Ochs handed Fred Rutten’s side a 1-0 win and they will be looking to maintain their position at the top of the table with a win at the Rhein-Energie Stadion against Köln.

Fabian Ernst is suspended following his red card against Dortmund, but it could be that Vicente Sanchez keeps his place on the left after an impressive display in their midweek Cup win over Hannover. Manuel Neuer is also a potential to return in goal.

Werder Bremen – 1899 Hoffenheim

Werder fans are on cloud nine after their 5-2 thrashing of Bayern Munich last weekend and they will want to se another three points gained against Hoffenheim. Beating Bayern will count for less if they don’t follow it up with another win against the newly promoted minnows.

Trainer Thomas Schaaf must decide whether to keep faith with the team that blitzed Bayern or freshen things up/ rest players ahead of next week’s Champions League tie with Inter. Per Mertesacker has been suffering with flu and if he doesn’t make it, then Prödl would come in. Petri Pasanen is an option in both full back positions.

This is the first time these two sides have met in the Bundesliga but Hoffenheim will go into the game in confident mood following their positive start to the season following their promotion from the second division. Their bubble appeared to have burst a little when they lost 5-2 away to Leverkusen, but the responded superbly last weekend with a 4-1 win over Dortmund.

Ralf Rangnick should bring midfielder Luiz Gustavo back into the starting XI after he was rested for the midweek Cup tie, while Obasi is an option in attack.

Hamburg – Borussia Mönchengladbach

Hamburg lost for the first time last weekend to Wolfsburg and trainer Martin Jol will be hoping that it was temporary blip rather than a change in fortunes. For the third successive league game, HSV went two goals down, but there was no way back against Felix Magath’s side and they went down to a 3-0 defeat. They also faced a tough game in the Cup on Wednesday as Bochum made them work for their 2-0 win.

Martin Jol could opt to rotate his side with Olic and Alex Silva candidates to be given a rest. That would see Bastian Reinhardt and midweek goal-hero Mladen Petric starting.

It’s been a bad week for Mönchengladbach with a 1-0 home defeat to Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga last weekend followed up with 3-0 loss at the hands of Energie Cottbus in the German Cup on Tuesday. Trainer Jos Luhukay will be hoping to see a performance like the on that beat Werder Bremen three weeks ago, knowing that a loss could see his side bottom of the table this weekend.

Personnel wise, Luhukay has question marks over the availability of Patrick Paauwe and Karim Matmour, but forward Rob Friend will be fit to start.

Hannover – Bayern Munich

Both Hannover and Bayern conceded five goals last weekend so both trainers will want to see a positive reaction from their sides when they clash at the AWD Arena on Saturday.

Hannover lost 5-0 at the Bay-Arena to a rampant Bayer Leverkusen side last Friday and although they were hit with injuries, trainer Dieter Hecking will not be pleased with the fact that his side have gone from beating Gladbach 5-1 to losing 5-0 themselves.

His injury and illness ravaged side will be seriously depleted against Bayern this weekend so it could be a case of damage limitation.

A wounded Bayern Munich side will provide a tough game as they look to make amends for their own humiliation last week. The Bavarians hadn’t lost at home since April 2007, and to go down to such a heavy defeat will have really hurt Bayern’s ego so expect a reaction on Saturday.

Trainer Jürgen Klinsmann reverted to a back four for their German Cup win over Nürnberg and it remains to be seen which formation he sends out this weekend. Lell could come in for Oddo, Podolski is an option to replace Klose, while either Kroos or Sosa could come in for Schweinsteiger. Franck Ribéry could also feature for the first time in the league this season.

Hertha Berlin – Energie Cottbus

Hertha sit in mid table right now with just one defeat at the hands of Bayern Munich as a black mark against them. They secured their second win of the season last weekend away to Gladbach and will want to quickly grab their third this weekend against Cottbus. They were unluckily knocked out of the Cup in midweek in extra time by Borussia Dortmund.

Trainer Lucien Favre hopes to have both Gojko Kacar and Patrick Ebert available after the duo were rested for their Cup tie with BVB due to injury. Josip Simunic has completed his ban following his red card and could also return.

Cottbus managed to score their first goal of the season last week against Bochum, but the fact that that they also conceded one means that they remain bottom of the table with just two points from five games. An away trip to East German neighbours Hertha will be a tricky task for Bojan Prasnikar’s side but points are a must if they are not to lose further ground at this early stage of the season.

They scored three more in the Cup in midweek so will be hopeful of providing more of a goal threat. Prasnikar could well keep faith with the side that won through to the next round of the Cup.

VfL Bochum – Bayer Leverkusen

Bochum host high-scoring Bayer Leverkusen at the Rewirpower Stadion with the tough task of stopping in form Patrick Helmes. Marcell Koller’s side have had a win, loss and a draw in their last three matches so will be looking for a more consistent run in the league in their forthcoming games.

Bayer put on a scintillating display last week against Hannover and will be wanting to continue that away to Bochum on Saturday. There shouldn’t be any reason for trainer Labbadia to change the XI that did so well last Friday with Patrick Helmes looking to add to the six goals he has scored in the Werkself’s first five games

Borussia Dortmund – VfB Stuttgart

Fresh from their midweek Cup win, Dortmund are back in action at the Signal-Iduna Park this weekend as they take on VfB Stuttgart. Their extra time Cup victory over Hertha Berlin would have gone some way to wipe away the disappointment of losing last week to Hoffenheim, but trainer Jürgen Klopp will be demanding three points in the league to properly make up for their 4-1 defeat.

Antonio Rukavina missed the Cup win with a muscle injury and remain doubtful for Saturday. Also missing for BVB are Zidan, Hummels, Blaszczykowski, Owomoyela and Dede.

Stuttgart have won their last three matches in a row in league, Cup and Europe, which has taken them up to third in the table. They kept up their recent good form in the derby against Karlsruher with a 3-1 win at the Mercedes-Benz Arena last week and trainer Armin Veh will be demanding more of the same against Dortmund.

For VfB the trio of Pavel Pardo, Mathieu Delpierre and Yildiray Bastürk will in all likelihood miss out through injury. Ciprian Marica could start ahead of Cacau to give the Brazilian a rest.

Eintracht Frankfurt – Arminia Bielefeld

On Sunday Eintracht Frankfurt entertain Arminia Bielefeld at the Commerzbank Arena looking for points as they seek to improve their lowly league position which currently has them sitting in 17th. Friedhelm Funkel’s side have played a game less, but have still only taken two points from their four games thus far. To make matters worse they were dumped out of the Cup in midweek after losing 2-1 to Hansa Rostock in extra time.

Funkel may be without Patrick Ochs after he was injured against Rostock. Should he miss out, then either Steinhöfer or Mahdavika could feature.

Bielefeld’s 2-0 win over Köln last week will have given them confidence and they will be looking to follow that up with another good performance against Frankfurt on Sunday. Michael Lamey is back in contention following his suspension, while both Rudiger Kauf and Artur Wichniarek should also start after injury lay-offs.

Karlsruher – VfL Wolfsburg

The weekend action is concluded with Karlsruher taking on Wolfsburg at the Wildparkstadion. KSC trainer Edmund Becker will be keen for his side to gain some points to make up for the loss last weekend in the derby match with local rivals Stuttgart. The Badener have now lost their last three league matches so the rot will have to stop on Sunday.

Maik Franz and Joshua Kennedy were both injured in their midweek Cup win over Kickers Offenbach so Stöll and Timm could be called in.

Felix Magath’s Wolfsburg find themselves in a rich vein of goal scoring form with ten goals in the last two games. An impressive 3-0 win over Hamburg last weekend was followed up by a 7-0 demolition of Oberneuland in the Cup on Wednesday.

Magath could switch to a 4-2-3-1 formation meaning that one of the two strikers would be sacrificed and possibly Hasebe coming into midfield.

Bundesliga Team Of The Week: Round 6

Quote:
Mathew Burt runs the rule over the best in Germany from the weekend’s fixtures in Round 6 of an exciting Bundesliga.

The weekend witnessed a second consecutive loss for Bayern Munich as they were downed by a magical Huszti free kick. Werder hit five goals for the second successive game, but we were pushed all the way by a Hoffenheim side that scored four.

Schalke were put to the sword on Friday at the hands of Köln, which gave Hamburg the chance to go top of the table with a 1-0 win over Mönchengladbach. Bayer Leverkusen kept up their high scoring start to the season with three against Bochum, while Cottbus climbed off the bottom with a win over Hertha Berlin.

Goalkeeper

(1) Ralf Fährmann (Schalke)

Friday’s match against Köln may have been back-up keeper Ralf Fährmann's last between the posts for a while with Manuel Neuer reaching full fitness. However, trainer Fred Rutten will have absolute faith in the youngster in the future should he be needed again after another fine display for the Königsblauen. Schalke may have lost 1-0, but without him the score line could have been a lot worse.

Defenders

(2) Mariusz Kukielka (Energie Cottbus)

Opponents Hertha Berlin may not have had the best of afternoons as an attacking force, but Cottbus defender Mariusz Kukielka was a rock throughout for the Lausitzer and kept things tight at the back for Bojan Prasnikar’s side.

(3) Youssef Mohamed (1.FC Köln)

Köln’s strikers had plenty of chances against Schalke at the Rhein-Energie Stadion on Friday, but it was centre back Youssef Mohamed who came up trumps with the only goal of the game to down the league leaders. His first Bundesliga goal capped a fine performance both in defence and in attack.

(4) Vinicius (Hannover)

All eyes were as usual on Bayern striker Luca Toni at the AWD Arena as Bayern were expected to show a reaction to last week’s loss at home to Werder Bremen. Instead the Italian was kept quiet all afternoon by Vinicius, who didn’t put a foot wrong all day.

(5) Martin Demichelis (Bayern Munich)

Bayern Munich have now lost their last two games in the Bundesliga, but Argentine defender Martin Demichelis is one of very few players to have come out of the last two defeats with any credit. When all around him seem to be losing their heads, ‘Micho’ is showing his class.

Midfielders

(6) Petit (1.FC Köln)

The Portuguese midfielder was immense against Schalke on Friday as Köln secured an important 1-0 win. He seemed to relish the battle against the likes of Jermaine Jones and Orlando Engelaar and was full of running and important tackles. He played through the pain in the second half after an injury, which kind of summed up his battling performance.

(7) Mesut Özil (Werder Bremen)

19 year old Özil turned on the style again on Saturday and makes a second successive appearance in the Goal.com ‘Bundesliga Team of the Week’. He fired Werder in front with a fantastic finish, which was reminiscent of his goal last week against Bayern. He then scored the winner for the Green and Whites after Hoffenheim had fought back to 4-4.

(8) Renato Augusto (Bayer Leverkusen)

Leverkusen look to have signed a real gem in Brazilian Renato Augusto. The former Flamengo star has settled quickly into life in the Bundesliga and scored a superb goal against Bochum as well as setting one up. The Man of the Match at the Rewirpower Stadion as the Werkself continued their good start to the season.

(9) Sejad Salihovic (Hoffenheim)

Bosnian Salihovic is the third midfielder to make a second successive appearance in the ‘Team of the Week’. He was brilliant against Werder and his left foot caused massive problems for Tim Wiese at free kicks. The goal he scored was just sublime and the Werder keeper could only stand and watch it nestle in the back of the net. He hit the bar twice, forced two great saves out of Wiese and set up a goal- superb throughout.

(10) Szabolcs Huszti (Hannover)

A sublime free kick from the Hungarian midfielder sent Bayern Munich crashing to their second consecutive defeat at the AWD Arena. His direct free kick left the Bayern defensive wall redundant and gave keeper Michael Rensing with no chance to save the ball.

(11) Mladen Petric (Hamburg)

Croatian striker Petric followed up his double strike in the DFB Pokal with the winner against Borussia Mönchengladbach, which saw the ‘Rothosen’ go top of the table. He has had a slow start to his career at the HSH Nordbank Arena but he seems to be finding his best form.

Honourable mentions:

As always there are a number of players, who deserve a special mention despite having not made it into the final XI.

Köln defender Geromel and midfielder Vucicevic both had very good games in the Geißböcke win over Schalke on Friday, while Tamas Hajnal had a major part to play in Dortmund’s 3-0 win over Stuttgart.

Werder’s 5-4 victory over Hoffenheim provided plenty of entertainment and the home side’s Diego, Hunt and Pizarro deserve a mention for their all-round performances and goals. The visitors saw excellent games from both Vedad Ibisevic and Demba Ba as they caused Werder all sorts of problems.

German international goalkeeping hopefuls Rene Adler and Robert Enke both played very well as did Gerhard Tremmel of Cottbus.
