The fans actually help the club, that’s really charitable. Those fans are probably the most charitable people I’ve ever heard of.

It's a great signing and with Max we are able to compete for and in the Europa League. Without Max we are still sucessfull, but not as offensively prolific. Without the last two Games we were 5th and sometimes 4th. These last two games were our first consequtive losses and were pretty close, I guess ihr team is tired such as a lot of teams...

@@EisernRob Sry but Ujah was never more than third striker since we signed him, maybe you mean Taiwo Awoniyi? Anyways Pohjanpalo is a great impact sub, but nothing else...

Then will come the bigger clubs to buy a lot of players, like LENZ is moving to Frankfurt, Unions Budget isnt so big enough to replace the players and the team gonna broke and the fall gonna come.

Now after the defeat against Werder Bremen there are rumors that they will kick out thier manager Labbadia.

[@shashankn4895]

Ig there's no proper management

[@robingronwald7993]

I got a video idea: Starting XI of former empires like Austria Hungary, Zar Russia, Prussian Empire, Portuguese empire, Spanish empire... that would be freaking awesome

[@basti3149]

I love your videos and finally you made one about my favourite club. But you have to consider that in Germany the proffessions of manager and coach are devided onto two individuals. Oliver Ruhnert, our manager is as important as Urs Fischer, he made multiple great and cheap signings of players from lower level leagues, which are performing great.

why don't they teach Football history at school. I love this so much man

You should start a football history channel bro. I love the detail of the Union story. Thanks and God bless

[@beaconing7689]

hmm interesting... ok i'm gonna manage this team in FM21

[@simonstein6552]

Great Video!!! I'm originally from Berlin and used to go to the Stadium when they were still in the Second division. They have extraordinary Fans, which are so proud and humble. Its great to see an English Channel talk about this Great Club.

[@maximilianovazquez9988]

Hey Alfie, would you consider doing one of these deep dives videos for Defensa y Justicia from Argentina? They just won the Copa Sudamericana, their very first major trophy, afther having reached the argentinian firts division for the first time ever in 2014. In those six years, they have consistently been one of the most offensive, free flowing and fun to watch teams of the league, reaching second place a few years ago. All of that despise having changed managers multiple times and having a high player turnover, as most of their squad is usually composed of loanies at any given time. Really, they are a joy to watch, and the sudamericana title feels like a just reward to them. It would make a fine video I think.

[@doener436]

Thx for this Video about my favorite club. Like incoming ❤️

[@raphaelmahgerefteh4960]

Do a video on 7 biggest turnarounds of teams from one season to another, based off this season's aston villa rise and also sheffield united downfall. Leicester City 2014-16 would probably take the top spot

[@addisonfung5009]

I have heard that Sunderland are in a Large part to do with their fan base. It’s crazy in that Newcastle are considered to have possibly the best supporters in the EPL yet Sunderland are known to have potentially the worst. The Sunderland supports are very quick to turn on their managers (as they did Peter Reid). Can’t say I have experienced this myself so am not sure if this is accurate or just slander.
