So I just checked the Bundesliga table and noticed Red Bulls Leipzig is at 3rd, just 2 points behind Bayern. Is it just good form or do they play great football? I have seriously never heard of this team before.
The team has only been around with that name for 6 years. They were a 5th division club like 6 years back until red bull took control. I would liken them to what chelsea or man city used to be, in that they spend a lot of money without a giant fanbase. Munich, Dortmund, and Wolfsburg were the only clubs in Bundesliga who spent more in the summer for players.So I just checked the Bundesliga table and noticed Red Bulls Leipzig is at 3rd, just 2 points behind Bayern.

Ah, now it makes sense. Well, the best they can do is buy potentials then since their revenue will be much less than the big clubs (unless the player chase bigger bucks). I mean, if you're a player, you'd want to join the established clubs to have a better chance of winning trophies.The team has only been around with that name for 6 years.

Scrappy 2-1 vs WBA. Finally broke the Pulis jinx so I'm happy with it.so who else's team won this weekend?
Leicester got a solid result as well, though I really wish our away form could match our home form. However, I feel people have overreacted to our bad league form, yeah we lost to hull, but the other 3 teams we lost to were united, liverpool and chelsea, though the scorelines were a bit worrying. But tbh, if we do well in the champions league, i don't care where we come in the league as long as it's 17th or higher.so who else's team won this weekend?
