After a busy August, the club came away with 9 points out of 12. Not bad considering we have gago, grafite injured, and Josue banned. We also sold Vlad Munteanu for 3M, Daniel Baier 2.5M, Ashkan Dejagah 5M, and finnaly, Karim Ziani went out on loan to Lyon for a loan fee of 525k.
The champions league group has been drawn. A very tough group for me here, have to grind out some decent results to be able to progress through
Inter Milan
Sevilla
Besiktas
Wolfsburg
Anyway, back to the results.
Hannover 0-1 Wolsburg
We controlled the game, creating many chances and blocking out the opposition. Deserved the win and was dissapointing to just win by the one goal! No prizes for who scored the goal. Yes everyone, it was Edin Dzeko.
Wolfsburg 2-0 Gladbach
Again, a game in which we controlled from the off. Alwways good to get another clean sheet. Defense looked pretty decent at the moment. Ismail Aissati and Obafemi Martims providing the goals for us.
Werder Bremen 2-0 Wolfsburg
Well, we didn't turn upto this game at all. The big boys didn't perform and this reflected in the final result. Josue sent off after 34 minutes, this allowed Werder Bremen to dominate the game.
Wolfsburg 2-1 Koln
A very tight game, but got the result in which i thought we deserved
Very very anxious towards the end as Koln equalised in the 91st minute. Always annoying when you concede a late goal. However, Dzeko was there to grab a great 25 yard strike in the 94th minute to get his second goal of the night.
PLAYER OF THE MONTH
This HAS to be the Bosian striker Edin Dzeko. With 4 goals, 2 assists and 2 Man of the matches in 5 appearences. Enough said.

Had some AWFUL news. My main striker Edin Dzeko has been injured for 3 months after attempting a sprint...
Games he will miss: Inter home, Bochum home, Karlsruhe home, Bayern Munich home, Besiktas away, Mainz away, Schalke away, Hertha home, Sevilla home, Stuttgart away, Hoffenhiem home, Sevilla away, Leverkusen away, Dortmund home, Inter away.
So yeh, basically a majority of league games and every champions league group game apart from one. Hmmm, this is going to be very hard now to grind out results as Dzeko is a man i could really rely on.
