in The Sync: Tough Draws in the UEFA Cup on Bundesliga Talk
Woah. The UEFA Cup looks more exciting this year that the CL, especially for a Bundesliga fan. Sadly the online offer for viewing games doesn't show UEFA Cup matches until the quarterfinals. :-(

Yeah I found it to be better last year as well. The UCL is predictable. But keep an myp2p.eu as it was how I was able to watch the shoot out between Udinese and BVB

in The Set: Seven Reasons the Bundesliga Is Better Than the EPL on Bundesliga Talk
I loved this article for so many reasons.
At kicker.de a few years back they averaged out goals-per-game and the Bundesliga came out way above the Premiership (France's Ligue 1 was top). Also, thanks for mentioning the CHEAPER PRICES at the stadium. A game at the new Emirates in London will cost 60 pounds at its cheapest and with much luck. A game at Hertha in Berlin starts at 7 euros.
Another big difference for stadium atmosphere is the "Stehblock" or standing section. They're illegal in the UK, because of high-profile violence years back. But in Germany you still have them and they cause an amazing vibe (though they're gone in Munich, Frankfurt, Duisburg, and a few other new stadia).

Thanks so much for the feedback. I was unaware that Munich didn't have a standing section, but now that you mention it; I don't remember seeing any. I'm astonished that Frankfurt wouldn't have any. Although isn't that a banking center. Maybe they don't have them because tellers stand all day :)
I used this for goals http://soccer-europe.com/Statistics/Goals/GPGEu.... Ligue 1 is always on bottom in it.
