How did you identify Bremen ?

Chicken slaughterhouse as their sponsors.

 

[Bundesbiers]

Took me awhile to get Hannover. The clincher was the last emoji... the red dot. Hannover is called, "The Reds".

Well, you are lucky but thats not why they used the chicken.
Ever heard of the Bremen town musicans ?

Occasionally I am blessed with a little luck.

However, you were right and that counts !

Some of the clues were colors. Like on Wolfsburg. A cactus has nothing to do with Wolfsburg, it has to do with the color green. Green was the clue. I'm wondering if I missed that on the Bayern clue. Red heel. Maybe Red was the clue as Bayern is red.

Colors are helpful, but for me more things like the horse (foals) and tiger (former Gladbach player Effenberg had once a tiger hairstyle). Or the flower for Darmstadt because the nickname for them are "Die Lilien" / The lilies....

I had Berlin right, only because they sell those bears in all forms and shapes and sizes all over Berlin. I also thought 17 was Bayern. Ha! I got #3 right thanks to Nessie's hint.

Not bad. As I said before, not easy when you dont grow up with some knowledge about the cities and their history. Glad to hear that you remembered the Berlin bear. The plane between the other Berlin emojis refer to the new Berlin International Airport that should have been opened since three or four years and where nobody knows if it ever will happen. A billion-dollar-grave, embarrassing for a country that is that proud of his engineers.

The flower (the Lillies) and the ummm... pooooop (Darm) gave that answer away for Darmstadt. I had a harder time with Hannover except for the red dot at then end.

Hamburg was easy. Anchor. THE CLOCK. That was the first one I got... even before Cologne.

Aaaah, I did not get that connection between Darm and the poop emoji....now as you are mentioning it.

So Man U is pushing hard to get Schweini and Boateng.

I'd be shocked if either of them go anywhere. Maybe Boateng, but I see Schweini staying right where he is.

Well, if he wont leave he might find himself warming the bench more often than he prefer. With Thiago and Martinez healthy and Alonso still around he will struggle to get enough playing time. Just read an interview with "Loddar" Matthaus and he also advised Schweinsteiger to move on to another club where the manager is building the team around him.

Van DeVaart left Hamburg? Does that leave a considerable gap to fill?

He was horrible the last few years. Hamburg didn't want to keep him.

To be honest - no. His time is over, unfortunately. I must admit that I never thought that there will be a club that offers him a new 3 year contract although Betis is not a top team.

I thought he would head over to MLS. Thought it was his last chance to play a few more years.

This goal still gives me goosebumps

I'm no marketing genius, but the impression I get of an anchor is that it drops to the bottom in order to be steady. Maybe just me.

I think it's more about the lifeline for our Bundesliga membership

If you are on the Susquehanna River near me, you need an anchor on your boat to keep you from getting washed downstream, over the dam and drowned! Might fit HSV as well.

Holy sh**, and 3 out of 4 games are away, not the easiest schedule for us.
However, a smooth 2-0 win at Bayern will help us to play a good season.
