Bayern München

Bayern were that strong last season too. In fact they had a even better goal per game ratio.

It's still damn impressive that Pep can change the formation and playing style the way he did and still have the team performing just as well as they did last season.

LOL. What a ludicrous post. Just because they won 7.0 to a shit team.

I'm not only taking about this match but their overall play this season. They can play possession, can counter and score from set pieces.

I'm not taking about individuals but the overall team and their style

Yeah, not denying it. I'm convinced though that he'll come back one day, he loves Barca too much. And perhaps he'll bring Thiago with him. Only two and a half years to go?

If there is one thing different about Bayern today that the Bayern team did not have a couple of years ago is consistency, especially when they play Buli teams. They might underperform in some games, but they always find ways to win. BVB can pose some threats still, but I think the injuries will cost them. That's why I think Bayern is pretty much guaranteed the Pokal winner.

Then you must think them guaranteed CL winners too. Which doesn't make sense.

I like Bayern because I know that in the end they will be the team that will prevent Real Madrid from winning the CL.

And they can score headers too. Meanwhile, we have no one, no one who can head. Our crosses are completely useless.

What makes you think Guardiola will come back one day? And where do you sense his love toward Barca, when he is away from Barca?

Then you must think them guaranteed CL winners too. Which doesn't make sense.

Come on, CL teams are not your average Buli teams.

 

[darthvader7888]

I bet we'd still be the best team in the world by far if Pep were still our coach.

So as long as RM doesn't win the CL, you are OK with Bayern beating us to win the CL for the rest of this decade?

 

[AfricanBavarian]

Buli and DFB Pokal titles are a sure thing, there are always uncertainties when it comes to CL. But yeah, they look unbeatable at this point. I think besides BVB (who really don't stand a chance because of injuries), RM is most likely the team to beat Bayern.

Eww! R.Madrid's defense looks like it was put together with duck tape and super glue

I dont wanna imagine the day RM wins La Decime

Not necessarily. No one can stop the likes of Puyol and Xavi from getting old and past their game. Guardiola might make some adjustments, but without the players he wants (the depth Bayern has), he might not do much better than Tata.

He doesn't think we stand a chance mate. So he finds solace in the fact that bayern will prevent Madrid from getting la decima while we aren't at our best

This, and thanks for saving me the work typing that.

But they can outscore you and outrun your defense too. Let it be honest, Bayern's defense is not particularly great.

Thiago wouldn't have left under him. And Bartra would be a starter (though Puyol is no longer a starter anyway). So their age wouldn't be as much of a problem.
