The Fussball Podcast

What's going on at Eintracht Frankfurt? One win in 12 games, five straight matches conceding three goals, out of the European places, and Dino Toppmöller fired. We talk through what’s gone wrong in Frankfurt, why the same problems keep repeating themselves, and what this moment really means for the club.

We then turn to the shock of the Bundesliga weekend as Bayern Munich suffer their first league defeat of the season. Augsburg once again prove to be a difficult opponent, ending Bayern’s long unbeaten run and showing that even this Bayern side can be stopped.

And finally, a special moment in Bundesliga 2, as Edin Džeko rolls back the years to make history. At 39, he becomes the oldest goalscorer in the league’s history, with a finish that felt straight out of his Wolfsburg days.

Why is this current Bayern team operating at a historic level in the Bundesliga. And who's to blame for the discrepancy? Bayern or their opponents?
Jan Åge and Markus Fjørtoft recap Matchday 16 after spending the weekend in Frankfurt, where they watched Eintracht Frankfurt draw 3–3 with Borussia Dortmund live, with Jan also appearing on Doppelpass.
The episode begins with the story of the week: Younes Ebnoutalib scoring for his boyhood club in Frankfurt’s dramatic draw with Dortmund. From there, the focus shifts to Bayern’s 8–1 win over Wolfsburg, the “best ever” debate around this current Bayern side, and why Vincent Kompany’s start in Munich is already drawing comparisons to Pep Guardiola.
They also discuss the Olise and Luis Díaz pairing and whether the Robben and Ribéry comparisons are justified, before running through the rest of the matchday including Stuttgart’s statement win over Leverkusen, Heidenheim–Cologne, Union–Mainz, Freiburg–Hamburg, Gladbach–Augsburg, and the postponed fixtures.

The Bundesliga returns from the winter break with Bayern Munich clear at the top and Harry Kane leading the league for goals and overall output.
Joined by Kevin Hatchard, we review the season so far: Kane’s numbers and influence, Bayern’s domanince, and the impact of 17-year-old Lennart Karl.
We also look at Bayer Leverkusen after their early coaching change, Eintracht Frankfurt’s up-and-down season, RB Leipzig's return to their "roots", Hoffenheim’s rise into the top five, and which teams struggle for "identity".
A straight check-in on who’s performing, who isn’t, and what to watch in the second half of the Bundesliga season.

Markus and Jan Åge discuss the standout Turkish players who defined different eras of the Bundesliga. From Nuri Şahin’s early rise to Hakan Çalhanoğlu’s set-piece reputation and the longevity of the Altıntop brothers, they reflect on the names that left a lasting impression on German football.

Bundesliga Matchday 14 produced late drama, red cards, and decisive moments at both ends of the table.
Bayern Munich were held to a 2–2 draw at home by bottom club Mainz, with Harry Kane’s late penalty rescuing a point as new coach Urs Fischer oversaw an impressive and resilient performance from his side. Borussia Dortmund dropped points in Freiburg after a Jobe Bellingham red card shifted the momentum, while Stuttgart responded emphatically to last week’s heavy defeat with a dominant 4–0 away win at Werder Bremen.
Elsewhere, Bayer Leverkusen steadied themselves with a derby win over Cologne, Eintracht Frankfurt edged Augsburg with VAR playing a key role, and St. Pauli claimed a crucial relegation six-pointer against Heidenheim despite playing the second half with ten men. Wolfsburg stunned Borussia Mönchengladbach, Hoffenheim impressed again at home, and Union Berlin claimed a big win over RB Leipzig.
