You on twitter mate? I follow a podcast called talking fussball and it's very insightful. Anyway, Augsburg has been mentioned a few times and they said the same thing (they'll sort themselves out once the EL is over) but this is a home defeat to a promoted side after a rather lengthy break of international football. I don't think you can use the EL for an excuse there...Fancy Weinzierl to move on if one of the bigger boys' get rid of their manager soon. He was closely linked with Schalke in the summer, if I remember rightly.
Wonder if Augsburg will pick up a bit once they're out of the EL too?
