Episode 109 covers the big win over rival SC Freiburg in a match that may or may not have been a derby.

Part One Shout Outs go the Frauen for coming back with some friendly success but especially to club legend Robert Schlienz who would have celebrated his 100th birthday just a few days ago.

Part Two looks at the big win over Freiburg, a win that was convincing to everyone but Matt and Travis!  Before that, though, the guys throw some praise to DJ Daxo and his impact both on and off the pitch for the boys in the brustring.  In terms of the match, the guys break down the goals scored, concerning issues on defense, and just how well the jungundwild were able to respond to the very, very physical play of the team from Baden.  

Part Three’s News & Headlines welcome back Hiroki and Serhou from international play, some money thanks to old friend Orel, and a newbie to VfB who isn’t new to the Bundesliga, Mahmoud Dahoud.  In terms of Questions, the guys give their feedback regarding praise for Maxi, Alex, and of course Deniz before wondering how many of them will be playing for the national team in the coming months.

Part Four wraps up with a look at the big week ahead, the Pokal match at Bayer and then Bundesliga matchday 21 versus a struggling and relegation threatened Mainz 05.  Not surprisingly, the Negative Ned that is Travis pours some cold water on the coming two matches but thankfully Matt’s optimism saves the day not just for VfB, but for everyone listening to this episode!
