Match preview: VfB Stuttgart v Hertha Berlin

By: Pete | Comments 3 Comments

After what seemed another ridiculously long international break we’re back once again, and facing an opponent that can hopefully kickstart the club with a positive domestic result. For all the troubles Stuttgart have had this year thus far Hertha have fallen even further (4th place last year, dead last this year.) But it’ll [...]

Match preview: Borussia Monchengladbach v. VfB Stuttgart

By: Pete | Comments 2 Comments

Lots to talk about after a frenzied CL midweek and now back to domestic action. The biggest squad news going into the weekend is the injury blow to Serdar Tasci. He picked up the same foot injury that Khedira has and is expected to be out the rest of the calendar year; ouch. [...]

CL preview: FC Sevilla v VfB Stuttgart

By: Pete | Comments 10 Comments

Sevilla has an opportunity to officially wrap up 1st place in the group with a win home against Stuttgart, and they have to feel mighty good about their prospects having never lost a CL match at home. Die Schwaben will be looking to at least steal a point here if not all three. [...]

VfB Stuttgart. FC Bayern Munich. Saturday.

By: Pete | Comments No Comments

Saturday’s clash home against Bayern Munich is roughly the 1/3 mark of the season. With 6 losses already on the campaign it doesn’t take a mathematician to figure out that if there’s any hope to qualify for CL or Europa next year the bleeding must stop now. When they won it all just [...]

CL Rant box: VfB Stuttgart v FC Sevilla

By: Pete | Comments 9 Comments

To quote the late, great Oscar Wilde, “What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.” And such is the optimistic outlook we will try and employ here. Things may seem grey at first sight; Sevilla has been one of the best teams (at least post WC qualifiers) over the [...]

Match preview: VfB Stuttgart v Schalke 04

By: Pete | Comments 1 Comment

Beginning to sound like a broken record but here’s yet another vitally important game for Stuttgart, at home, vs Schalke. Ah how we’ve come full circle. Just about a year ago Babbel began his glorious campaign against Schalke. Stuttgart won 2-0. Things were full of such promise.
Cut to a year later. [...]

Rant Box: VfB Stuttgart v Werder Bremen

By: Pete | Comments 6 Comments

I have to apologize; like the team I stumbled a bit with a game every 3 days. A bit late posting this but better late than never ja?
Big game today; the green whites have looked strong all year domestically and even more so in European play. It’s also yet another test to compete [...]

CL Rant Box: Unirea Urziceni v VfB Stuttgart

By: Pete | Comments 11 Comments

Sorry I haven’t posted the past couple of days; was in the mountains camping/hiking and away from technology altogether. I did of course catch the match on Saturday and was very pleased with the results. No need to rehash; thanks to everyone who posted comments, covered most of the important points. Another [...]

Match preview: Eintracht Frankfurt v Vfb Stuttgart

By: Pete | Comments 4 Comments

Stuttgart travel to Frankfurt tomorrow to take on in-form Eintracht Frankfurt. Unbeaten thus far in the season, Eintracht sit in 6th place with 2 wins and a boatload of draws.
We all know the deal; Stuttgart is struggling mightily and could really REALLY use all 3 points. After a frighteningly difficult DFB win in [...]

Pokal preview: VfB Lübeck v VfB Stuttgart

By: Pete | Comments 3 Comments

Another day, another competition. Stuttgart take on 4th division side VfB Lübeck today away from home. I don’t really expect much of a challenge here, and apparently neither does Lübeck’s trainer:
“Generally speaking, we’re not expecting to have much of a chance. The odds of us winning this one are at about 1%! Only [...]
