I think that’s what they call a “good response”

By: Jackson | Comments No Comments

After a series of miserable performances and the ongoing denial of a “crisis”, the Green Whites responded with a shocking 5-0 victory over a injury depleted Eintracht Frankfurt. A capacity crowd at Weserstadion saw the home side control the ball in the attack with Christian Vander undisturbed with any noteworthy chance. Claudio Pizarro start the [...]

must win against Eintracht Frankfurt

By: Jackson | Comments No Comments

As the Green Whites left the pitch following their draw to Anorthosis Famagusta the club seemed bathed in a pall of disappointment. Whether you use the term “crisis” or just “disappointment”, the situation is far from acceptable in Bremen and todays match against Eintracht Frankfurt is a “must-win.”
Interestingly enough the club has been notably quieter [...]

Nord derby

By: Jackson | Comments No Comments

The 89th installment of the great Nord derby promises to be a highly explosive one within the early winter season. With Werder defensive woes, the attacking style of Martin Jol’s Hamburg promises to make this a high scoring match if the Green Whites do not pay special interest in protecting Tim Wiese.
Thomas Schaaf is unsure [...]

FC Köln is ready

By: Jackson | Comments No Comments

Keeping my preview to the point, Christoph Daum has FC Köln playing great Football of-late, flying-up the table and the complete opposite of Werder, who keep finding new ways to say that there is “no crisis” as they tumble down the table.
