Kloop came home

So it happened, 365 days after he announced his resignation from BVB his new love Liverpool had kicked BVB out of Europe League in the most dramatic way. He had Malaga's night with BVB and now he has Anfield's miracle against BVB. Football can be such a cruel sport sometimes.

Funny how the expectation of BVB fans changed so much from the beginning of the season than now. From "give Tuchel time to rebuild to we should have won the UEL",  it said so much about Tuchel's success in his first season in charged.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan finally comes to fulfill his potential, the MagicTaryan 23 goals and 21 assist to his name. Julian Weigl is such a revolution to BVB midfield that we forgotton his is just 20 years old. Aubameyang is dupped one of the best center forward in the world now.

Yet, here we are in the mid of April and still rumours of transfers are getting more and more intense by the day. Of one thing that BVB really needs to improve is the ability to keep key players. Gundagan look certain to head to EPL, Hummels is comtemplating to leave and judging by his demeanor these few days, it is almost done too. It will be really frucstrating to see BVB lost two keys players after such a good season. The pokal will remain the only token, if they win.

Fortunately, at the end of the August we can still see him here in Dortmund, a place he called home.

BVB Asiatour

It has been one month plus 2 days since Borussia Dortmund came to Malaysia for one of the stop of Asiatour. It has been real fun and lots of picture to share.

As stupid as me, I forgot that I brought along my DSLR which can zoom closer. So if you manage to spot the blond handsome guy, that's Marco Reus. He was here for an event at Puma Store JBCC, very lucky to get a big help from store manager to be able to meet up with him for like 5 seconds and took a photo. :-)

Sorry for the blurry photos, he walked really fast and I was shooting from my phone. 

Nothing much to share from the game, it was a friendly game and obviously BVB is not very serious about it.

That's Sven Bender, Aubameyang and Stankovic. 

World cup winner Erik Durm in action.  

Marco was doing his model posing. 

And of course his true love, water bottle. 

New coach, Tomas Tuchel. 

The players show some loves and appreciation to the fans. 

The next day though is more fun, went to Meet n Greet with Jonas Hofman and Lukasz Piszczek. Met some Lukasz's fans from the Philippines. 

 Somewhere in there are the signature of Aki (BVB CEO), Tomas Tuchel (BVB Manager), Marco Reus (BVB most beloved player), Roman Weidenfellen, Jonas Hofmann, Lukasz Piszczek, Pascal Stenzel, Marouka and Julian Weigl (BVB next big thing aka Michael Carrick in the making). 

So with some fond memories, few selfies and couple of hundred poorer, we bit farewell to Asiatour. It was really fun and hope to see you guys again in 2017. Come back to Malaysia and Singapore.

This is not ordinary football. He teaches more than that....

in good times 

and bad times. 

Just if you are wondering why he is the coolest manager in football world. This is from Tumblr,

Pep Guardiola requests candles in his hotel room. Jurgen Klopp once asked the boys to help hotel staff clear a piano from conference room. 

The journey will comes to an end soon, but the memories live on. After the Berlin final with a victory of course, Heja BVB.
