      <title>The Bayern Munich title party (and other Bundesliga topics...)</title>
      <description>Manuel Veth, Dan Whighton, and Stefan Biankowski are back to break down a landmark weekend in German football. Bayern Munich are champions once again, brushing aside an early Stuttgart goal to clinch the title in style, and the guys have exclusive quotes from a Philipp Lahm roundtable on what this moment means for the club.

But the title race isn’t the only headline. Union Berlin have made history by appointing a female head coach in Marie-Louise Eta: a groundbreaking moment for the Bundesliga and German football as a whole. The guys dig into what this means for the club and the broader game, despite her first game being a defeat to Wolfsburg.

And in a pulsating relegation six-pointer, Werder Bremen edged out HSV in the derby to hand themselves a crucial lifeline, while heaping more pressure on their rivals with just four games left to play.

      <description>Listen to the full show on Substack or on our YoutTube channel.

On the first bonus show of the week, Manu and Stefan sit down to discuss the biggest transfer stories in the Bundesliga. They kick things off by breaking down the big news of the week: Erik Ten Hag is the new Bayer Leverkusen head coach. Will the former Ajax and Man Utd boss be the ideal replacement for Xabi Alonso at the BayArena? The duo then turn to two other managerial changes, as Werder Bremen parted ways with Ole Werner and Augsburg sacked Jess Thorup in favour of local lad Sandro Wagner. Will both clubs finally climb out of mid-table with smart managerial appointments or could these risky moves push them back towards relegation? They then wrap up the show by discuss new reports linking Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo to Bayern Munich and break down whether the Dutch talent would be a smart signing by the Bundesliga champions or little more than a runners-up medal in the chase for Florian Wirtz. Enjoy!

      <title>Stuttgart win the German Cup, Heidenheim beat Elversberg to stay in the Bundesliga</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=760</link>
      <description>In our final main episode of the season, we dive into a dramatic weekend in German football as Stuttgart claim the DFB Pokal and Heidenheim secure their Bundesliga status in the relegation play-offs. Manu reflects on a whirlwind road trip across Germany, taking in matches and soaking up the culture, culminating in a remarkable final at Berlin’s Olympiastadion. We break down how Stuttgart tactically dismantled Arminia Bielefeld in a 4-2 win, praise Sepp Hoeneß for salvaging the club’s season, and reflect on the broader implications of Stuttgart’s title win for their long-term trajectory.

Then it’s off to the Saarland, where Elversberg’s fairytale push for promotion ended in heartbreak at the hands of a pragmatic and clinical Heidenheim side. We dissect Frank Schmidt’s honest post-match reaction, credit Leo Scienza and Paul Wanner for their decisive moments, and consider what might lie ahead for both clubs. Alongside all of that, we take time to acknowledge the incredible fan culture surrounding both fixtures, Bielefeld’s inspiring run to the final, and what these moments might mean for each club’s future.

      <title>Bundesliga matchday 32 preview: Bayern close in on title, RB Leipzig wobble, Freiburg dream of the top-four finish</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=752</link>
      <description>Manu and Stefan were back for the Bundesliga preview show (a day late due to travel), and there’s plenty to unpack. Here’s your weekly conversation-style recap from the pod:


Bayern on the Brink (Without Kane)

Manu: “This could be it — if Bayern beat Leipzig, they win the title.”
Stefan: “And Harry Kane won’t be on the pitch, which just writes its own jokes.”

Still, Kane and Eric Dier will get their first career trophies if Bayern wrap it up. Stefan joked Dier could do a John Terry and show up in full kit at full-time.

Stefan: “Bayern won’t delay the title for sentimental reasons. They’ll get it done.”

Both agree this season’s been mixed for Bayern, but Kompany has done the job that matters: reclaiming the Bundesliga title.


Leipzig’s Squeaky-Bum Time

Manu: “This game is massive for Leipzig. If they don’t get a result, Champions League football could be gone.”
Stefan: “They’re up against it. Orban and Gulácsi are out. Without them, they’re hopeless.”

Leipzig are under pressure from Dortmund and Freiburg. Without Champions League qualification, they may need to sell key players like Xavi Simons.

Stefan: “They’ve been sleepwalking for years. Leverkusen’s rise is forcing them to wake up.”

Manu: “The issue isn’t ambition. It’s their failure to find the right formula.”

The coaching situation is also in focus. Manu and Stefan suggest Leipzig need to make a bold hire — maybe Sandro Wagner or Cesc Fàbregas.


Freiburg’s Big Chance

Manu: “If Freiburg beat Leverkusen and Leipzig lose, the door to the Champions League really opens.”
Stefan: “Julian Schuster has actually improved on Streich’s work.”

Freiburg are two points ahead of Leipzig. Despite struggling against top-four teams this season, they have a chance to change that now.

Stefan: “They need to break the curse. If you want to be top four, you have to beat top-four clubs.”

They’ve signed a replacement for Ritsu Doan and could have Noah Atubolu back in goal — a major boost. Manu also explained why Freiburg shouldn’t be considered a small club anymore.

Manu: “Freiburg’s greater metro area is bigger than Dortmund. They’re a sleeping giant with real infrastructure now.”

      <title>Bundesliga matchday 31 preview: Who will be the next RB Leipzig head coach? Werder Bremen aim for European finish</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=750</link>
      <description>On this week’s Bundesliga preview show, Manu and Stefan sit down to discuss two games in particular. On Saturday evening RB Leipzig travel to Eintracht Frankfurt in the hopes of inflicting some serious damage to their fellow top-four contenders. But in the meantime the dynamic duo discuss the names linked with the open managerial post in Leipzig and debate whether the club will be about to convince the right man to replace Marco Rose. They then turn their attention to the Nordderby between Werder Bremen and St Pauli and discuss why Oliver Burke’s decision to leave the club for Union Berlin is not only bad news for Ole Werner’s side but is perhaps also an indication of why all may not be well at the Weserstadion despite their climb up the league table.

      <description>On this week’s episode of the Gegenpressing podcast, Manu and Stefan are back to discuss the biggest talking points from the weekend in German football. They kick things off with a breakdown of Bayern Munich’s 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund in “Der Klassiker”. Should Vincent Kompany’s side be happy with a point or are there bigger issues at play in Munich that the German giants will need to fix before their clash with Inter? The duo then took in Bayer Leverkusen’s dull 0-0 draw with Union Berlin and debated how much credit or criticism is fair for Xabi Alonso’s team this season. Then, to wrap up the show, Manu shone a light on Eintracht Frankfurt’s season and discussed what they’ve done so well in the Bundesliga, ahead of his interview with the club’s CEO.

      <title>Bundesliga matchday 23: Mainz and Gladbach aim for Europe, Frankfurt look to cause an upset in Munich</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=733</link>
      <description>On this week’s Bundesliga preview show, Manu and Stefan take a look at three games in particular that have caught their eye this weekend. They kick things off with Mainz vs St Pauli and break down why Bo Henriksen’s side have been perhaps the biggest surprise package of the season and whether they could truly push for Europe come the end of the season. They then turn their attention to another aspiring continental club in Borussia Mönchengladbach, who are hoping to continue their impressive start to 2025 with a win over Augsburg. Are the Foals just a one-man team or is there more to it than that? The dynamic duo then wrap up the show by previewing Eintracht Frankfurt’s trip to Bayern Munich, where the Eagles will surely be looking to take advantage of an injury to Harry Kane to take all three points from Vincent Kompany’s side. Enjoy!

      <description>On this week’s main Gegenpressing show Manu and Stefan kick things off by discussing Borussia Dortmund’s dreadful performance away to Bochum. To the surprise of very few, Niko Kovac’s side struggled in their latest away game and left many wondering whether this team are more likely to get relegated than get back into Europe next season. The duo then moved on to Bayer Leverkusen’s 0-0 draw with Bayern Munich and broke down whether Xabi Alonso got his tactics spot on or choked at the worst possible moment to more or less lose the Bundesliga title race. They then wrap up the show by taking note of Eintracht Frankfurt’s surge into third place and why the Eagles are on track for a record points tally in the German top-flight this season.

      <title>Bayern and Leverkusen get sloppy, Dortmund step back from the brink &amp; why nobody wants to finish in the top four</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=728</link>
      <description>On this week’s main Gegenpressing podcast Manu and Stefan round-up the biggest stories from matchday 20 of the Bundesliga. They begin with Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich’s continued title challenge, as both German giants picked up all three points but did so in rather unconvincing performances. Could defensive problems in both teams decide who wins the Bundesliga this season? The pair then take a look at Gladbach’s 2-1 win over Stuttgart and RB Leipzig’s 0-0 draw with Union Berlin and consider why the Bundesliga table is still so wide open from second place all the way down to twelfth. They then wrap up the show by analysing Dortmund’s 2-1 win over Heidenheim and what the current state of their squad means for new manager Niko Kovac.

They begun the show by discussing Bayern Munich’s decision to sell Mathys Tel, with the club accepting a €60m offer from Tottenham for the young striker. They then moved on to discuss whether Niko Kovac is the right man to pull Borussia Dortmund out of their mess.

They then wrap up the show by highlighting Bayern Munich’s impressive 2-1 win over Freiburg and why Vincent Kompany perhaps deserves more credit than he’s received in his debut season at the Munich club.

      <description>On this week’s Bundesliga preview show, Manu and Stefan take a look at three of the most intriguing games in the German top-flight this weekend. They begin with St Pauli v Union Berlin, where the home side will be hoping to take advantage of Steffen Baumgart’s misfiring team from the capital and finally register only their second victory in front of their own fans in the league this season. They then turn their attentions to Mainz v Stuttgart, where Sebastian Hoeneß’s team are unquestionably in the ascendency and look like a club with the Midas touch. The pair discuss how the club’s latest sensation, Nick Woltemade, is the perfect example of that. They then conclude the show by discussing the Topspiel, RB Leipzig v Bayer Leverkusen, where two teams that had mixed results in Europe in midweek will undoubtedly have to be at their very best to claw all three points from their opponents on Saturday evening.

      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=723</link>
      <description>In this crowded episode of the Gegenpressing Podcast, hosts Manuel Veth and Stefan Bienkowski discuss the latest happenings in the Bundesliga, including the surprising upset of Dortmund by Holstein Kiel, the struggles of Dortmund's leadership, and their daunting task of going to Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday night. They also touch on Hoffenheim's drastic leadership changes and how that has led to a pubic spat following their heavy defeat to Bayern Munich. But will Vincent Kompany’s side find it just as easy against an improved Wolfsburg on Saturday? The duo then wrap up the show talking about Stuttgart's resilience after a tricky start to the season, following an impressive win over RB Leipzig and a tough derby against Freiburg this weekend.

      <title>Leverkusen overcome troubled Dortmund, Bayern pass tricky Gladbach test</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=722</link>
      <description>On this week’s main show, Manu and Stefan try and squeeze a podcast episode in between matchday 16 and matchday 17 of the Bundesliga season. With plans to focusing on the intriguing battles in the middle of the table later in the week, the pair look over the two big clashes at the weekend. They start with Borussia Dortmund’s bruising 3-2 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night and what the result says about the state of both squads at this stage of the season. And then they go on to talk about Bayern Munich’s 1-0 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach and why a relatively narrow victory in the real Der Klassiker may have actually been a pretty decent performance from Vincent Kompany’s side.

      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=721</link>
      <description>On the first Bundesliga preview show of 2025, Manu and Stefan are back to discuss the three most intriguing games of Matchday 16. They kick things off with Bayer Leverkusen’s trip to Borussia Dortmund on Friday night and discuss whether this clash is more of a must-win game for Xabi Alonso or Nuri Sahin. The duo then move on to Eintracht Frankfurt’s away game at St Pauli, where a typically stubborn host will be looking to spoil the party for the Eagles, while keeping one of European football’s most in-form forward quiet. They then wrap up the show by discussing the real “Der Klassiker” as Bayern Munich travel to Borussia Park to take on an impressive Borussia Mönchengladbach team without star player Jamal Musiala. Enjoy!

      <description>In the final Gegenpressing podcast of 2024, Manu and Stefan are back to discuss matchday 15 of the Bundesliga. They begin by discussing Bayern Munich’s impressive 5-1 win over RB Leipzig and how Vincent Kompany’s side completely dominated their opponents in their final test of the year. The pair then move on to Bayer Leverkusen, whose 5-1 victory over Freiburg was just the latest proof that Xabi Alonso’s team are still well and truly in this season’s title race. Then, finally, Dortmund’s 3-1 win over Wolfsburg is broken down and analysed, as Nuri Sahin’s side picked up their first away win in the Bundesliga since April and perhaps showed some hopeful signs ahead of the new year.

      <title>Bundesliga matchday 15 preview: Why Mainz are flying under Henriksen, Leverkusen face Freiburg test and Dortmund's date with destiny</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=717</link>
      <description>In the final Bundesliga matchday preview of 2024, Manu and Stefan sit down to discuss the biggest talking points ahead of matchday 15. After doing a 45-minute deep-dive into Bayern Munich v RB Leipzig on the bonus show, the pair take a look at Eintracht Frankfurt v Mainz and discuss why Bo Henriksen has perhaps been the best head coach in the Bundesliga this season. They then move on to Bayer Leverkusen v Freiburg, where Xabi Alonso’s side will be hoping to pick up their first major scalp at home this season and Julian Schuster will be looking to cause an almighty upset. The podcast then ends on Wolfsburg v Dortmund, which should be a dramatic end to the year. If Nuri Sahin’s side fail to win, they risk ending 2024 as low as tenth place, while Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side could be eyeing up European qualification with all three points.

        <![CDATA[<p>In the final Bundesliga matchday preview of 2024, Manu and Stefan sit down to discuss the biggest talking points ahead of matchday 15. <a href="https://gegenpressing.substack.com/p/bayern-munich-v-rb-leipzig-vincent">After doing a 45-minute deep-dive into Bayern Munich v RB Leipzig on the bonus show</a>, the pair take a look at Eintracht Frankfurt v Mainz and discuss why Bo Henriksen has perhaps been the best head coach in the Bundesliga this season. They then move on to Bayer Leverkusen v Freiburg, where Xabi Alonso’s side will be hoping to pick up their first major scalp at home this season and Julian Schuster will be looking to cause an almighty upset.

      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/episodes/mainz-beat-bayern-dortmund-draw-to-hoffenheim-bremen-and-leipzig-impress/</link>
      <description>On this week's Gegenpressing podcast Manu and Stefan are back to break down all the major talking points from matchday 14 of the Bundesliga season. They begin the show by discussing RB Leipzig's 2-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday and how Marco Rose's team seem to have not only saved his bacon before Christmas but also remain in contention for a potential title challenge in 2025. They then discuss another poor performance from Borussia Dortmund, as they were held to a 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim. That's a third, successive draw in the Bundesliga for Nuri Sahin's side and there's very little to suggest that things will improve before the winter break. Elsewhere, Werder Bremen beat St Pauli 2-0 and continue to impress. So much so that the pair discuss whether Ole Werner is the Bundesliga's most under-rated head coach and is deserving of more praise. And, to round up the show, they then break down Mainz's impressive win over Bayern Munich and how it underlined the major flaws in Vincent Kompany's team.

But how much was that down to the Munich giants performing well and how much was down to Sebastian Hoeneß’s German internationals looking notably jaded? All that and more discussed in today’s show.

The duo also discuss under-pressure Hoffenheim head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo's job security and whether he needs a win at Stuttgart to keep his job during the international break. They then conclude the show discussing Borussia Dortmund's impressive win over Celtic in the Champions League and whether Bo Svensson's stubborn, defensive Union Berlin side may have enough about them to thwart Nuri Sahin's free-scoring side.

      <title>Bayern and Leverkusen lock horns, Dortmund stumble (again) and St Pauli finally win!</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=692</link>
      <description>On this week’s main Bundesliga show, Manu and Stefan are back to discuss the biggest talking points from matchday 5. The weekend kicked off with Borussia Dortmund’s dramatic 4-2 victory over Bochum, which did little to dispel concerns over Nuri Sahin’s tactics and ability to get the best out of his squad. St Pauli once again made headlines, but this time in a good sense after a somewhat surprising win over Freiburg and the duo eplain why a win for Alexander Blessin’s side may have been a long time coming. But, to little doubt, the biggest discussion of the weekend revolved around Bayern Munich’s 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen. Were Xabi Alonso’s team truly humbled by their hosts and forced to stay in their own half for much of the game, or did they perform a canny strategy to leave Munich with an all-important point? All that and more discussed on today’s show.

      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=691</link>
      <description>On this week’s Bundesliga preview show, Manuel Veth and Stefan Bienkowski discuss Werder Bremen’s tricky start to the season and whether they can get back to winning ways on Sunday against out-of-form Hoffenheim. The duo then discuss who else may be dragged into the relegation race, before taking a look at how well Mainz forward Jonathan Burkardt has started the new season. Is the German talent destined for bigger things and can he single-handedly take his club to the top half of the table with his goals and assists? We also briefly discuss Borussia Dortmund’s need to bounce back from a damming defeat to Stuttgart with Friday night’s clash against Bochum.

      <title>Doue rejects Bayern, Leipzig sign Nusa and Stuttgart target more signings</title>
      <link>https://bleav.com/shows/gegenpressing-the-bundesliga-podcast/?post_type=gp_podcast_episode&amp;p=666</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Gegenpressing Podcast, Manuel Veth and Stefan Bienkowski discuss the latest transfer news in the Bundesliga. They start by talking about Bayern Munich's failed pursuit of Désiré Doué and Xavi Simons, and how it reflects a trend of the club going after young talents from other leagues instead of developing their own. They also discuss the defensive issues at Bayern and the need to focus on strengthening the back line. The hosts then move on to discuss VfB Stuttgart's transfer activity, particularly their pursuit of another striker despite already having several options in that position. Stuttgart is actively looking to strengthen their squad before the start of the season. They have been linked with Armando Broja from Chelsea and Loic Bade from Sevilla. These signings would provide depth and options in both attack and defense. The club's transfer activity shows their ambition to compete in Europe and solidify their position in the Bundesliga. Leipzig, on the other hand, has made a quick signing in Antonio Nusa from Club Brugge to replace Dani Olmo. The club is focused on building a strong squad to challenge for the Bundesliga title. There is a sense of opportunity in the league with Bayern Munich being dethroned last season, and multiple teams, including Leipzig, believing they have a chance to win the title.

Bayer Leverkusen suffered a comprehensive 3-0 defeat against Atalanta in the Europa League final. The loss ended Leverkusen's 51-game unbeaten streak and highlighted some tactical and selection mistakes made by coach Xabi Alonso.
