Broxi 11,576 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I said have a chance cup competitions are great levellers but Bayern are so dominant that only Barca are on their level imo.Personally, from a Bayern perspective, I'd be worried about facing Barca, Real and Dortmund and that's it. Real have a great team as well and Dortmund because they've beaten them a number of times recently, including 5-2s and 4-2s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMotor 2,208 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I don't see any real difference between now and every year since the Bundesliga began, except the others have dropped off a bit and Bayern have a real standout team.That won't last. Bayern have always had the most money and usually, on paper, the best squad but manage to fuck it up within a couple of seasons by all falling out with each other. Then every 2 or 3 years some other team(s) get their act together also and the league moves on again.I don't think Bayern have ever won more than 3 titles in a row and neither has any other German team. That's why it is such a good league I reckon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 11,576 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 What do you think Bayerns is?Striker.When Lewandowski comes that won't be a problem anymore. Mandzukic has done a fine job but I think he's the weak link. Central defence would be next but you can't argue with the stats and Bayern let in hardly any goals. There's a world class player in every single other position though, and one or two on the bench as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,600 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I don't see Bremen doing it soon but Schalke should be, or at least be doing a lot better than what they are this season. If Huntelaar comes back and they sign a couple top defensive players and a keeper then they could challenge. Keeping Draxler too would go a long way or replacing him with someone good. Hamburg would have to sign a few top players too so I'm not sure on them.They'll need more than a few. I went to see them early December and they were atrocious.

I went to see them early December and they were atrocious.You never really know what you'll get with them, 5-0 loss or a 5-0 win. They have Van der Vaart and Lasogga has done very well for them but even he's only on loan there. I do agree with you, they aren't going to be up challenging anytime soon.I think Gladbach, Schalke and Wolfsburg are the only plausible ones at the moment, Hertha have done great first season back also and have the stadium, fans etc so maybe them if they keep it up and keep going next season.

The Godfather 72,436 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Let's be honest...No one is touching Bayern anytime soon in Germany.They are already outstanding and now have a classy striker which is something they have not had.

SwallowsHisOwnSpunk 7,883 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Do the people saying Mandzukic is Bayerns weak link actually watch them? Mandzukic has been outstanding for them and has the same amount of goals as Lewandowski this season, I would say Lewandowski is a slightly better player but to call Mandzukic a weak link is just wrong he is still fantastic .

plumbGER 24,518 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Folk forgetting that a full strength bayern conceded 3 and lost to a shadow Man city team in front of a packed house at home! I blame that little arrogant prick Gaurdiola,sat there and didnt flinch as his team stormed into a 2 goal lead,not even a round of applause for the goals! No wonder his players chucked it after that Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder his players chucked it after thatFull strength Bayern team? It wasnt. Robben was missing, and Im sure Lahm and Sweinschteiger (sp) were missing as well..The game was also a "nothing game". If it was a decider, Im sure Bayerm would have destroyed them, but of course, that is just my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumbGER 24,518 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 They would have pumped city if Micah Richards didnt pull another injury and be replaced by Zabaleta,when he came on he galvanised the city defence.Well maybe not a full strength Bayern team but in comparison with Citys line up,there were certainly more mainstays who started.
