Like the Bundesliga, we also took a winter break (although our diets would never get the blessing of club nutritionists) and are ready to go for the 2nd half of the season.

At this half way point we discuss Top 4 party-crashers Hoffenheim and ask how they got there and how they went under the radar for so long? 

With the German transfer window re-open for the month of January, we discuss whether Covid has killed big transfers or will anyone go on a shopping spree?

We also reminisce our favourite German transfers of all time with some surprises and poetic license on my part.

Finally, we cast our eyes further down the table at table to spot Wolfsburg and Stuttgart in danger and ask are they both "too good to go down" and how are they down there?

It's good to back. Thanks for your support last year and wishing you a great 2022 year of the tiger!
