[Inter Me Nan]

If we manage to avoid any English teams we're winning this again.

Bayern look dreadful.

 

[MCFC1993]

Gnabry wasted that, just go on your left.

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Why is it unpopular or why do I miss him?
Unpopular was a guess TBH
Miss him because his bursting runs were exciting.

Why do you miss him I meant.
I think Doku has the potential to be far more exciting than Sane. Doku looks more skilful. Sane reminded of of Giggs from in his teens/early 20's. They were both rapid over a distance and swerved past players. Doku is more explosive from a standing start at trickier.

That's a red ffs

I think United might be better than Bayern to be honest. They look bobbins and did the only other time I’ve seen them this season against Leipzig.

They've been doing this all season away from home. They play ok for 30mins then completely drop off a cliff. By the start of the second half, they'll completely down tools.

Thing everyone needs to remember though is that the Champions League doesn’t really start until February and everyone’s form THEN is what really matters, not now. So I wouldn’t rule Bayern out based on this. Let’s see how everyone is shaping up after the turn of the year. If they haven’t kicked into gear then, then yeah they’ve regressed.

i get your point but this seems to be a tuchel problem. couldn’t even beat leipzig or leverkusen since he took over.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

That lot have been able to pierce their lines at will. Surprisingly square and big distances between the midfield and defence, who presumably are worried about their pace.

I’ve not noticed any tactical tweaks from the games I’ve seen Bayern play so far this season.

 

[Blue Llama]

Rags getting away without a card there.

 

[FogBlueInSanFran]

That's a red ffs

Orange for sure. Can’t believe he didn’t get a card of some colo(u)r.
