Re: Bundesliga Risers, Talents and Droppers 2009

He's already 86. Will he increase to 87 then? or stay at 86

Great thread btw

Should rise to 87 then' date=' has been a good replacement for Helmes. Will edit the list, but only put him into the possible risers section, not sure if SM will increase him just to let him drop in the changes after when Helmes is back again.

Will he change position or stay at DEF?

Might change to Def/DM if SM also look at U21 games, he started the recent qualifier as a defensive midfielder. Played RB and CB for Hamburg this season.

Re: Bundesliga Risers, Talents and Droppers 2009

are there any good risers in divisions 2 and 3?? because if not it's a waste of time for you:rolleyes:

There might be some +3/+4/+5 risers' date=' from the top of my head I can't think of any REAL gems or big money-makers though. There still should be some 10k youngsters nonetheless.

Niklas Andersen won't rise, he just plays for the reserves in the 3. Liga.

Re: Bundesliga Risers, Talents and Droppers 2009

Can you just list some +4/5 risers from those divisions if you don't have anything better to do in these days??:D:o (a bit selfish i know:o)

That's just what I was thinking of, I don't really watch enough to tell which players would deserve a drop performance-wise, but I could list some lower-rated players who got some playing time and will probably keep playing.

Re: Bundesliga Risers, Talents and Droppers 2009

How confident do you feel about Manuel Neuer getting a +1 (in %)

It all depends on Schalke's performance and what happens to with him in the NT.

Ability-wise, he's not worse than Enke or Adler, but if he remains 3rd choice I'd say the chances are only 10% or so.

However, if Schalke do well and are in the Top4/5 when the changes come and when he maybe gets another call-up or even game for Germany, it becomes more likely, maybe 50%.

I still think that he'll move to a bigger club though in the near future (Schalke are obviously heavily in debt, and the German rules are quite strict compared to England or Spain where clubs can make hundreds of millions of debt), maybe Bayern in the winter break or even to a foreign club with an ageing keeper (there's been rumour of him going to ManU for example), and then he definitely can get to 93+.

Great work on this thread Phil. V Helpful.

RE: JUAN ARANGO

Of the two times that I have seen Gladbach play this year (in that comeback by Bochum & the Hertha match) Arango looked pretty solid. Seemed like he was always dangerous not only with his passing but also his ability to create open space. Since he's taken his shot attempts significantly up, Gladbach have won two of the past three. Not being displaced by Reus (as some thought at the beginning of the year). In fact when Reus subs in, Reus has almost always been on the right-side with Arango remaining on the left. He had a good 2nd half of the season for Mallorca last year (7goals/5 assists), but more importantly was consistently good from January on. And for the Venezuelan NT (which is still in the mix) Arango seems to still have a hand in everything that they do.

Certainly there's not enough there for a rise in rating, but on the face-of-it it's hard for me to see a drop either.

Granted it's early in the season so it's hard to take rating averages seriously yet, but I see on the Kicker ratings that after rating him highly for the first few matches, that they don't have him rated very high for the past few. For the season so far I think Kicker has him currently as only ~ 20th in midfielder ratings for the overall league.

Anyway, my analysis of him is based more off of stat-work rather than seeing him firsthand week-in and week-out. Curious what I am missing with my analysis of him and why you think he is a definite dropper this ratings change.

Yeah, certainly he hasn't played bad, but going from Mallorca to Gladbach is a step backwards, and SM are usually harsh if players move to "lesser" leagues and clubs. It's just that Mönchengladbach are too bad as a club to have a 91 in their team.

Similar to what happened to Petit at Köln, despite being of the best players if not the best in the team, it's impossible to keep such a high rating at a club who are usually fighting against relegation.

Re: Bundesliga Risers, Talents and Droppers 2009

About Müller, I actually think if he manages to keep playing as he is now, he could hit 85 or even 86.

Ozil is also the second top scorer in the Bundesliga if i am not wrong. Maybe he can hit a 90 or 91.

Also, what do you think about Pranjic's chances of going up?
