You can find all financial data on all clubs in the DFL end of financial year report here: https://www.dfl.de/de/hintergrund/lizenzierungsverfahren/finanzkennzahlen-der-proficlubs/ After having a quick look, in the 1. Bundesliga, only Augsburg, Freiburg, Hoffenheim, Leipzig, and Bayern made profit last year, while Leverkusen and Wolfsburg had a balance of 0 (no profit, no loss).

It's Le Mans week, @Eco...

Johan Mina is joining Estoril Praia on loan.

Yeah, so many uses, yet will probably end up predominantly in combat.

Yeah, and something we knew for a long time now.

Supervisory board member Thomas Krohne stands down with immediate effect as he's unhappy with Marco Bode, the unwillingness to make changes, and general trust in transparent and democratic processes in the club. The last drop was Bode's statement to the press on Sunday (regarding Frank Baumann's work and future) without discussing it with all the members of the board. His last message: „Einen Neuanfang für Werder Bremen kann es nur geben, wenn der echte und feste Wille für Veränderungen da ist. Diesen Willen sehe ich nicht.“ Fuck. We're officially worse than HSV.

Whoa. This looks like a massive improvement, it's crazy how far they've come already.

Maximilian Eggestein has a beautiful ring to it though!

Maxi Eggestein joins Freiburg as Santamaria's replacement. No details on transfer fee yet. Eduardo dos Santos Haesler was loaned out to Nordsjaelland.

And they just signed Maxi Eggestein as Santamaria's replacement.

As expected.

Brilliant post. I'd add these two: "No Good Men Among the Living: America, the Taliban, and the War through Afghan Eyes" by Amand Gopal "Games Without Rules: The Often Interrupted History of Afghanistan" by Tamim Ansary

His crossing and corners are atrocious. Thought it maybe was an issue with us, but watching him play for Sweden in the Euros, it's quite clearly not. Also often out with muscular injuries, and I didn't expect him to sulk like a little bitch about leaving us, considering that he's been touted as a "model professional" before. Definitely a decent signing for ca. 5m, but fuck him anyway.

Augustinsson is a fucking disappointment.

Whom? Sargent or Augustinsson?

Turned it off after 15 seconds. It's literally random people embarrassing themselves on social media Why the fuck would you watch that?

The next one... A bit disappointed with the transfer fee. Reportedly only 4.5m with 1m add-ons.

Finished The North Water earlier today, really enjoyed it. A perfectly executed mini series with a good story, interesting characters, and amazing cast - Collin Farrell, Jack O'Connell, Stephen Graham, and Peter Mullan. Just started Reservation Dogs now, a new dark comedy series from Taika Waititi! About a bunch of indigenous teens looking for ways to leave the reservation and go to California. Loved the pilot, a unique setting with a unique set of characters. Also Zahn McClarnon is in it!

I didn't like it either. Thought the first part of it looked promising, and then it completely fell apart. Meh.

That looks lovely!

Ortega is probably expected to leave, if not this then next summer? Either way, it's probably better to be a #2 goalkeeper in a 1. Bundesliga club than #3 in a 2. Bundesliga one...

At least the goalkeeper position is covered - Pavlenka (in new contract talks), Zetterer, dos Santos Haesler and Plogmann. I feel sorry for Kapino, though. A good keeper, waited for his chance, but just wasted years at Bremen.
