well by american standards it's probably nothing but for a european, the border between austria and germany is quite long so that doesn't really help.
but i'm not from bavaria anyway (although i have relatives down there who actually DO live just a stone's throw away from austria between rosenheim and kufstein) so i can't help you with that - shouldn't your buddy know where to go, assuming he's german and lived there for a while?


He is a fellow American, he has lived there for 6 months and knows his local town okay.

Just trying to get so.e input inout from the locals :).

Also fuck typing on my phone, I can't correct the spelling errors for whatever reason <.>.

Has Volland played as a striker before for Hoffenheim? I feel it's quite a shame he's not going after a great season


he barely ever played striker
in youth teams he did for 1860 but in pro squad even at 1860 he teamed up with lauth etc

Why would Germany pick such a low side to prepare against? Armenia? I know you don't have to prepare too much cuz of U.S. and Ghana but you need a little better than this.

coz they wanna go into the tournament with a positive result. and armenia is not THAT bad, they are 38th in the world (higher ranked than japan, cameroon, paraguay, venezuela) and had some decent results in qualification (draw against italy, raped denmark 4-0, win against bulgaria and czech republic)...

that's why italy chose luxemburg as opponent, france chose jamaica, bosnia chose mexico, spain chose el salvador...

yes i know the ranking is shit that's why i said "higher ranked" not "better". I'm just saying their results have shown that they aren't complete pushovers like san marino or luxemburg...

So why compare them Vs. lower ranked teams? Don't mean shit right?

here's how easy Mexico was for Bosnia.

Anyway. I think it's better to go in a World Cup with a tough opponent than what Germany, France, Italy and Spain are doing.

Brazil is going to surprise them. As in the World Cup.
