Episode 1: A New Hope

Christoph Biermann and Raphael Honigstein are back on their mission to give you valuable insights and interesting stories about everything related to football in Germany: First and foremost The Bundesliga and of course the national team (formerly known as "Die Mannschaft") with the upcoming World Cup.

This first new episode deals with the question whether the tide has changed for former league leaders Union Berlin following their 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen and who will be the so-called "Bayernjäger" trying to stop the dominance of one FC Bayern München.

We'll crown a Player of the Week and discuss which strikers Hansi Flick needs to look at, now that Timo Werner is out of the World Cup with an injury.

Last but not least, join us as we check out who's carrying the so-called "Red Lantern" at the bottom of the table. Hint: It's not Christoph's favourite team VfL Bochum.

Enjoy!
