and. it kept us on the edge of the we have the action from sunday's matches and the match day's biggest talking points coming up for you let's get started. winning the season opener of the. campaign anything that can stop that dream becoming reality is frank. and. looking to extend their winning of the season with a spanner in the works just like the final match. welcome to the bundesliga here on the mechanic line joining me in the studio for the breakdown of match day to a 2 members of a very good team to my right welcome to the show thank you nic it doesn't get any better than this on to my left all of you better that. has pledged to be here and i say here that's what i'm going to be like the next 12 minutes let's get started with our coverage. there for under way with the 4 overpromoted site when you're

in it was the 1st time that everyone on the opening match day and the top in the top flight it was also perfect starts the union era but that isn't the only reason the spirits were high in leipzig kick off the strike a team of that is staying put. he's old contract was set to run out at the end of the season the new one will keep him at the club until 2023. it seems he's wages get a healthy boost and he now has a $30000000.00 euro buy a. company that to me if i never said i wouldn't want to stay here it was always clear to me that leipsic would play a major role and i think that by extending my contract it shows that i like playing here i think i'm showing that. the news that he was staying at the club had the fans in ecstasy before kickoff. of the and so they were positively euphoric 10 minutes in when the homicide took the lead from none other

than team over was his 52nd goal and he's 95th going to sleep that appearance for the club an important one for him on this very special day was one nil to the hunger sought. by the next chance to celebrate didn't come until the 80th minute a sensational volley by use of force and was the host was the danes 1st of the season i am. the frankfurt didn't let their heads hang out and for that to get one back for gonzalo pass the n.c.a.a. was it wasn't enough to grab a draw. like see would celebrate their win. and of course keep the team a very close. leipzig when 2 on the bounce but the big news coming out of the red bull arena on sunday is team a venice contract extension ali this is

a pretty huge deal for leipzig yeah it's massive robbie leipzig you know this is a player who's been linked repeatedly with buy in munich also from time to time to liverpool as well young club supposedly a big fan you can imagine why so to get him signed up is definitely a statement of intent abi leipzig we've already seen as well we saw in this match you know just what brings to a team with a speed and his finishing i mean that finish in the game this weekend you know it made it look easy but he controlled it so well 1st time on the bounce too so you know you really know what you get within 2 games into as he goes into been as a games so far as well but it does sound like there's an escape clause for than a 30000000 euros which seems very very low for a player of his quality at least so i'm not going to lose him for free next summer anyway enough of what i think let's hear what his teammates and coach think about the contract extension that's good news for us good news for me like it was

a problem. striking partner so we can continue to make sure i'm happy to have him you know he's a fantastic player a good guy and yeah i resist such an important player for us there's a great new sort of club that's very important for us because we're very good players and all the 3 games in the season that is can score goals so you can assist also those very important player for us that's great news i'm happy i'm happy for him i meant for the club i'm happy for the manager you leon. alan bennett signed up not a man is in charge of the running in the goals everything coming together for leipzig well i mean ok let's just backtrack a tiny bit so by munich of a long history of poaching their rivals top talents right you have michael ballack from labor and you had 11 dosti from dortmund manuel neuer the list goes on and a lot of people thought that's what was going to happen here with the with team over an hour but suddenly leipzig stood up to the bully yeah they said take your hands out of my pie because you know this could be

a sign that leipzig are finally flexing their financial muscle right and after a seriously timid transfer window compared to byron and dormant and that they're sending a message to the folks in munich that you know we've got deep pockets to we've got red bull pockets and that can only mean they're getting serious about challenging byron for the title perhaps as soon as this season how do you see i mean this is fixing their financial muscle they want to flex their muscles on the pitch are they title contender let's hold the horses just a little bit let's remember that this is a team that's never really sustained title challenge in its short history and it's all division of course and a coach as well he's never been involved in a title race we all right you'll be a novice in a very high as we know that his qualities but this is something new for him new for most of his players too so i think we have to give them maybe a little bit of time to get up to that level and i think they know this too they know that it's about building at the moment we had. it's the money behind the club

a little while back at say that he wants the bundesliga title within 3 years so he knows that for the time being at least it's about building he doesn't want to see much pressure on the same and i think he's right to do that but not to both of you what do you see in dortmund by him that maybe leipzig don't have yet or don't already have actually i think you know the depth of their squad and the experience of winning of being at the top be the main things for me but that's the point with livestock as well we saw this in cup. seasons ago when they're playing the champ is the 1st time they they times they just don't know how to deal with those competition something which they can maybe fix this year. well time will tell how this is this is going to be their best shot yet but i to be honest i think they're not going to do it this year but they have a very bright future ahead with all the young talent they've brought up from their youth program you know i have to agree i think the depth is where leipzig are going to struggle this isn't especially when you look at dortmund and the attacking players that they brought in with the likes of you know and as our as wild side

they've got reinforcements when they need them the business end of the season i'm not sure that i'll be like they have enough for a sustained campaign i mean i think it's a bittersweet taste for binal together because i mean as you mentioned before him by new spiel to buy their players they want it now of a sudden they haven't got they have a team event of a seem to have the muscle of the market they used to have for international stars and a player who they could have got for free at the end of this season they might have to pay at least $30000000.00 for which is tough for them but anyway that's the end for leipzig which brings us to our other match on sunday which was in berlin. well spoken a tightly contested match against cologne on match day one we're looking to extend that winning streak in berlin but had to shouldn't be underestimated off they held by into a tool draw in the season opener but spoke whether once he went in the lead in the 9th minute when they would have a penalty. to convert for the one. homesites hopes were then thrashed by you know when he doubled their lead in the 18 seconds minutes. and it's over time

as your home was put the result beyond all doubt 3 nil the final score deserved win for all of a glasgow's team to start the season with 2 straight wins. now and those 2 teams both have new coaches on the forgotten as of now who is in charge of the home of facebook and did you know that bruno the idea decided not to renew his contract even though they finished 6th last year i guess the 1st question is everyone's asking is all the who. but you know let's look at what he's done he led in the austrian league he led lask lintz from the 2nd division to a 2nd place finish last year and that was within the space of 4 years so he does know how to get things done he's going to change the style from what the deal was doing that would be a focus more and on defense glassed is known for emphasizing speed pressing high up the pitch switching quickly from defense to attack so a lot of potential there but if they go into a slump we'll vote for it have patience with them will they given the chance

because they're known not to have patience with their coaches quite an achievement if it was i could see that he was saying those league mean they only finished behind red bulls or talk about life saying this just a team exe financial power only what about the job it had to believe i mean he certainly would have wanted a different result in his 1st home match absolutely i think and such over so it's a day that he's got a big job on his hands and has a ball and it's very strange one isn't it after they took a point of buying new nick at the allianz arena on nights they want to then come crashing back down to earth like this perhaps to remind of a childish that you have to get your team up to not just for the big games against by and for every team in the bundesliga if you want to compete you know i think the other pressure on showbiz is that he's taking over from a real club legend you remember the state that hats were in when i took over at that club they live right through relegation and he stabilized them over a couple of years is now going to build on that success that in some ways that's an even harder job when we talk about coaches as new should have been the biggest of this season that's yellow car. coaches but we sort of saturday from stephan who was

booked tell me briefly who do you think is going to get the most yellow causes season and you write so yes jeff and barbara as you mentioned powder bourne's coach i think god himself and here's why ok he's got a head start he's got one no one else does also his statement after the game when he basically said the referees were crap although he used the term stronger than that which i can't say on t.v. and so this show does anything but chastise or apologetic about the whole thing you know he went on to say that coaches have to be emotional and that if he's expected to keep his opinions to himself he's going to be seeing a lot more yellow this year one name from you ali i'm going to go with christian's joy he know when he gets on the touchline that he just goes a bit nads disney and i think is doing ok at the moment for the grabbing a good start to the season but when things go slightly wrong we might see him get they have a few cuts and strike might actually be bit if you let's take a look at the table because freiburg 2nd have

a look at that behind the dormant ahead of leipzig on 6 points with 2 wins to start the season there are now 5 teams that were the perfect start and by 6 although you know this takes too much days to go and to can happen between now and then in the bottom half we have all those teams who have had 2 games not a great start the season the bottom 4 especially need to get 3 points on match day 3. before we go guys i would like to get a quick prediction one word answers from you who you think if it's going to go up the top 3 top ones by in leipsic do you think going to that end of the season i do is going to join the well outside chance gladbach under marcos ok i'm going to go with later case and i think it's got to be done all right all right and then in that case we do actually agree because that's how i would see it in the season i would like to thank both of my guests today for being here in the studio it's been great having you and make sure you tune in for the bundesliga on the next that match day that's all from us now thanks and goodbye.
