Not really reached the heights since they won the league thanks to their prolific partnership of Grafite and Dzeko, Both now obviously gone, and having just lost mario mandukic this summer to Munich the pressure is really on now to get signings right and try to get back to around the top. The signings of Bas Dost (ex heerenveen? striker), Olic from munich and the return of Diego from Athletico Madrid could be very interesting for them. Entirely dependant on whether both hit the ground running , depends on their chances of qualifying for europe for the first time in a few years, after finishing 8th last year
They've had a similar fuck up with managerial appointments as us. After they won the league Felix Magath (who left in 09) they hired Armin veh, who then was sacked, then interim boss Kostner, then our favourite SCHTEVE took over in July 2010.
Needless to say he was sacked by the february.
Pierre Littbarski took over and was shite, so they've plumped for magath again after he was sacked from schalke over a year ago.
Now with a stabilised team, can they climb back to the top that they were on not too long ago?
Their first game started well in the Pokal. They won 5-0 against Schonberg, with olic getting a hatrick, with bas dost and diego getting the others
