What is the problem with RB Leipzig?

So like, what's the big deal with Leipzig, why does everyone in Germany hate them? I mean, I can understand why Bayern Munich ain't happy, but honestly if they ain't happy they can go furrrk themselves, disgusting club who steal the best players off their rivals and kill any hope of healthy competition in the German League. But what's the issue with the rest of the league?

I personally love what Leipzig are doing. A club coming from nowhere and trying to be the best team in the country. It's an inspirational story and I can't believe how bitter the other clubs in Germany are about one club having higher aspirations that just being Bayern Munich's biiitch basically. I hope Leipzig win the Bundesliga, and I hope other clubs follow their example.

Facebook Farnborough would be richer. United are getting relegated wahly. And it's all because of you.

Yes bonds AND history is what I said.

For example my Dad used to tell me stories of players he's seen play, managers that have managed us and games he's seen before I started going to match. Just like his Dad, my Grandad (born in the 1920's) told him. I've been the match with generations of my family and know everytime I walk into Anfield I'm walking into a place my family walked before me. There is a link between the club and me that transcends my life that I'll pass on to my lad.

Can the same be said of Corporation FC?

Erm no.

Is that stuff really important to you? Isn't it just a game you watch every week?

Of course it is. Those that go the match will understand.

RB Leipzeg are doing well at the moment. But the real test will be when they aren't doing so well. For some fans (I couldn't say what percentage) it will be easy to drop them and move onto the next club that has a few bob, or has got a certain manager in.

If you say so. None of that stuff really matters to me. I enjoy seeing small teams doing well and trying to be better

Walh bro would you be happy with Kitkat Coventry winning the league with Cilit Bang Chesterfield, Tinder Tamworth and Angry Birds Accrington Stanley making up the top 4 and Man Utd get relegated cos they don't have as much money as those corperations?

Angry Birds Accrington Stanley, how could you support a team with a name like that

interesting read, you can understand some of the sentiment though there's a lot of hypocrisy

A LOT of hypocrisy.

Football is a game and here's a team trying to win the game and be as successful as they can. It doesn't matter if it's red bull or whatever, it's still 11 players on a pitch kicking a football around - what else is there to football?

Face it, the way the rabid commercialism of the prem means it won't be long before we have Manchester Unilever vs Shellsea at Old Toyota live on Fox Friday, KO 10am to accommodate the Asian market.
