Tell you... of my rooting interests, Schalke is the only one I'm enjoying watching right now... Like tbat McKennie is getting some run in the U.S. now as well...

McKennie definitely looks like a promising talent for the USA. 1st Cap, scores a goal. He needs to stay at Schalke or in Europe for that matter. MLS is no help for his progression. Even Pulisic admitted his development was better being in Europe. No coddling of the most talented player. You have to earn your spot everyday. Would be nice if Schalke could make the Top 3 and get UCL next year.

FYI: I was looking at the Bundesliga standings. It looks like 4 teams qualify next year for UCL automatically next season? 2 automatically go to Europa. Is that true? Seems different than last season when only 3 automatically qualified.

That is good for a team like Schalke. They will probably make the Top 4. Goreztka is out and they are still winning.
Gladbach is looking not too shabby recently. Did you see the Raffael goal from the other day against Hertha? One of the best I've seen.

Yeah, Schalke seems like a usual 4th or 5th place finisher, no?

Did see it. Watched the 1st half of Bayern and went out for the day. Had to do a lot of driving Saturday. Listened to the rest of Bayern on the radio until they cut it off for Wisconsin Michigan football. Then I moved over to the soccer channel and listened to Man City Leicester and then Newcastle Man United games.

Schalke could be better than 4th or 5th this year. Dortmund and Leipzig don't look as strong this season after all and Hoffenheim has a faded a bit. They are 2nd right now. Let's see how Dortmund fares when some of their injured get back but they are so out of form right now...especially defensively. They are giving away points to the likes of Hannover and Stuttgart.

Right, this year might be better, just typically Schalke seems to be between 4th and 7th or so each year.

Speaking of Schalke, I saw an Ozil to Schalke rumor today. Possible since that is where he is from and got his start. Also, can Schalke give Dortmund more misery this weekend? Big match. Could be the end of Bosz. Actually I'd prefer Bosz to stay until after the Bayern Dortmund Pokal game coming up soon lol.

BVB is demolishing Schalke early. Ugly.

Missed the match but recorded it. Noticed the score at the half and the possession percentages and it sounded brutal.
