For years, one would have wished Fortuna would once again have a national player. Now they have some - and they come back hurt, like Alfredo Morales (hamstring). In addition, André Hoffmann and Nana Ampomah, who should have made his Bundesliga debut, caught a cold. No matter. Still better than before.

Kevin Stöger is running again. After his cruciate ligament rupture, the painfully missing midfielder was able to complete the first laps around the field. Meanwhile striker Rouwen Hennings has applied for a contract extension with a nomination for the goal of the month.

Recently, there are connections to Wolfsburg: The new CEO Thomas Röttgermann formerly worked for VfL and now brings his former "Head of Corporate Development" after. Fortuna's chairman has stupidly learned from the newspaper. Not quite that good yet. The encounter for that, hopefully all the more.

You rarely say enough, but the international break came at the right time. The game against the SC Paderborn has shown every weakness of the VfL and you must finally be happy about the point against the promoted. After all, you had two weeks to work through these weaknesses.

Because disappointing teams last season, just like Wolfsburg, have re-established and are harder to beat this season. Although the VfL essential player is missing, the quality of the squad ranges to win in Dusseldorf.

The defeat at the Alte Försterei was a hearty shot in front of the bow. A win against Leverkusen and ex-coach Bosz could easily turn the mood into positive again and relativize the failure to slip. With another weak performance, it should be restless.

It is still stuck. Particularly frightening was the lethargy of the actors on the lawn in Berlin. Marco Reus is still looking for his form and the expected by Mats Hummels stabilization of the defense has also been missing.

Disappointment after the 0: 1 by Pavel Kuka and the threat of relegation, huge cheers after the equalization by Markus Münch and thus achieved relegation.

The 0: 0 against Hoffenheim before the international break was sobering, but not a real setback. Now is the first match against a top club this season with the away game in Dortmund, which will bring many lessons.
shape
Against deep Hoffenheim the Werkself had great problems, good chances to play out. Especially the countless corners were far too harmless. After all, there are hardly any personnel problems and Bosz can draw almost full. He only has to do without Julian Brandt. He plays with the opponent.

Good for Bayer is that BVB will not put in the back. Since the Leverkusen defense is quite vulnerable this season, she just has to score more goals than she conceded. On to the 5: 4 away win!

Most Bundesliga clubs used the international break to make minor corrections. In Dortmund they tried hard not to cause a stir after the defeat at Union Berlin. Leverkusen, on the other hand, despite the draw against Hoffenheim seems to be strengthened and free in the external presentation of worries. That leads them at least to a draw against the coach's former club.

Mainz fans have become used to the fact that points almost always come in waves with us. Under Jürgen Klopp there were 16 games without a win, under Thomas Tuchel seven wins in a row. Of course, it's never nice to get so washed out like in the past few weeks.

The feeling that in the opponents every shot was a hit and the start of the season was not quite as bad as the bare numbers of zero points and 2:12 goals say is statistically substantiated: According to the statistics "expected goals" the goal difference would only - 4 amount. Nobody else is so clearly behind this value.

Last against penultimate sounds like drama. I think both teams are too good for the relegation battle, but of course the loser could get stuck down below. Hertha's defensive play and physical strength are not really there, but my stomach clings to a good feeling called Ádám Szalai.

One point after three games, only two goals scored and already conceded eight - the season start was of course presented differently. In the environment it is still quiet, even if first fans einschießen on the new coach. Total quark, we say and trust that the rudder will be ripped around soon enough.
shape
At Schalke there was a lack of basic things such as willingness to run, duel intensity and communication, so that can be built on almost nothing. There are also hair-raising individual mistakes in the defense. Two weeks to recondition and integrate new signing Marius Wolf are the only things that give you courage.
emotional state
Already on Matchday 4, the team has pressure to earn points - and even at Mainz, which are similarly modest and have been a very disgusting opponent for Hertha for years. It will not be nice, not nice at all. A game that is decided on the mentality, which is why currently no gut feeling is present. Win, no matter how.

The Mainzers are the kings of upheaval. After each season half of the cabin is replaced, with the coach Sandro Black must work each. It becomes all the more difficult when a position essential to the Mainz game, such as the storm center, is weakened by several injuries. The transfer of Ádám Szalai should not solve all Mainz problems. Ante Covic celebrates his first victory as Berlin head coach.

The victory over Augsburg has made for relief, but by far not everything went as you wish. And how, if one half of the squad is missing due to injury? The Bittencourt transfer on Deadline Day was a welcome positive change.

Did we lease the injury pitch exclusively this season? Kevin Möhwald is out of action for half a year, and Niklas Moisander is also missing at least for the Union game. Marco Friedl remains lonely in central defense. Correspondingly, the team will be back on their own with only three players remaining for the defense. Have fun then, Mr Kohfeldt.

Union Berlin had against Dortmund his sense of achievement and returns against Werder Bremen on the ground. That would be my tip, Bremen would not have such grotesque injury concerns on the defensive. With the loss of captain Niklas Moisander remain Bremen throughout the professional squad three defenders. Inevitably, players from the reserve move into the candidate list for the starting eleven. Maybe the chance for Union to celebrate the next victory in their own stadium.

The players of RB Leipzig are in such a good mood that they are currently even helping Austria to look pretty and play good results. Dayot Upamecano is also fit again. The squad options of Julian Nagelsmann are great. Against the Kovac-FCB RB is in three games without a goal. Timo Werner does not like that at all.

The former Bayern would make a clear statement in this game and win 4-0. Respectively, this is the story that tells the Myhtos of the former Bayern. Under Kovac, however, the champion always has phases in which he inexplicably loses control of the action on the pitch. RB uses these phases and does not make too many mistakes in the rest of the season, there are three points in it.

The first cracker of the season is coming. It went on the first three matchdays against the 11th, 12th and 14th of the last Bundesliga season, stands with Leipzig a challenger for the title on the program. Niko Kovac has proved that he can play Leipzig's aggressive pressing. Two victories and a draw is his Bayern record. Also against Julian Nagelsmann he was harmless (two victories).
shape
Seven points from the first three games are fine. However, the Munich came in five competitive games in the current season three times in arrears. The defensive Umschaltspiel after mistakes in the structure was too error-prone. Robert Lewandowski faked the blemish with six goals this season. That's how easy football is.
emotional state
Kovac will puzzle. Against Leipzig he left it in the previous year at 4-2-3-1. A double six from Thiago and Javi Martínez is conceivable, but Martínez played little if anything in the current season. Therefore, Kimmich is more likely to play alongside Thiago. Coutinho played internationals in the US and came back late. Overall, the question arises, how courageously Kovac play on victory. With a draw, both teams could live well early in the season.

The top game of the matchday - and although Leipzig's record against Bayern is not good so far, there is hope in persona Julian Nagelsmann. The cooperation of a club with such infrastructural and financial possibilities and such an exciting coach is not only promising in the future, but already up to date. Bayern are allowed to experience this at the weekend, who are still struggling with the integration of their entrances. Bayern Munich finally becomes a Leipzig hunter.

Hoffenheim has changed playfully under his new coach Alfred Schreuder, but no real philosophy seems to be implemented yet. That makes the TSG dangerous, but also vulnerable.

Finally, after a long wait, three points were scored again in front of our own audience. Judging by the opponents Schalke 04 can be satisfied with the Bundesliga kick-off. The mood is hilarious and there are no media hot spots right now. Nevertheless, it must be scored especially on Sunday. A damper would come at an inopportune time.

In the home game against Hertha BSC it became clear once again how blatantly close Schalke's offensive is. Only two own goals of the opponent paved the home win. Schalke's biggest drawback remains, the offensive is too creative and faulty. After all, the defense currently seems to make no problems. According to current status all national players have returned unharmed from international matches and can be used.

Paderborn or Partyborn? Schalke's upcoming opponent is still without victory in the young season. Maybe the ascent euphoria has gone a bit. Royal blue can not be blinded by this. And that will not happen in my opinion. Schalke will stand compact and put corresponding pin pricks that sit.

If the chaos should not break out again at Schalke, a victory in Paderborn should be a must. The signs are not bad: long-term injured as Mark Uth are fit again and accessions like Juan Miranda or Ozan Kabak come closer to the starting eleven. This increases the pressure on the former permanent staff, which inevitably has to deliver - and that also does against Paderborn.
