Germans really are unbearable aren't they? The smugest nation by far

You clearly have never lived with a Frenchwoman, Oscar.
I don't have a problem with what Mueller/Moller/Muller Rice has to say, because he's right.
And when City are as good as Bayern I will make smugness an art form.

He may well be right, but noone with any class comes out and says that sort of thing do they? After we battered United, all our players weren't in the press saying "I can't believe how useless there entire team was" or "I can't even remember the last time Michael Carrick kicked the ball in a game against us" or anything like that. I can't stand a bad winner
 
When we play them again we need to sacrifice a striker and match their 4-1-4-1 with Fernandinho under strict instructions to hold and protect the back four. Lets see how fantastic Lahm looks when he's got a highly motivated Yaya Toure running at him at pace. Arrogant twats.

Typical comments from a German rag. Can't stand Bayern, their players, their hierarchy, pretty much everything they stand for. Hope Dortmund win the Bundesliga.

There is something distinctly raggish about a team which has cheated to win a major European tournament adopting an attitude of condescending disdain towards a beaten opponent.

I can't remember Barcelona ever adopting such a stance.

Bayern are a long way ahead of us, and a fair way ahead of Barcelona too. But in terms of how a club and it's players conduct themselves, I know which I'd rather emulate.

They're rags ... they are totally lacking in anything approaching class. Nothing would give me greater pleasure this season than beating them in Germany and winning the group.
 
I think a lot of German confidence in their own abilities often comes across as arrogance in translation.
Clearly Bayern Munich are not in the same ballpark as the rags when it comes to boasting and hype.
When Bayern sell product on the back of a tragedy, or when Bayern finance the club by knowingly selling contaminated meat for school dinners, then I may just entertain the notion.
They are a big club, and they have been successful, and folk don't like them for it.
That is where any similarities with the rags begins and ends for me.

Clearly you've missed all the entitled, hypocritical, nonsense that the Bayern hierarchy have come out with about City and Sheikh Mansour's investment in the club. German rags sums them up perfectly.

Correct Jim. Rummenigge's smug self-satisfaction is loathsome.

No, I haven't missed it Billy - some of it has been inaccurate and borderline racist.
Don't get me wrong - I have no time whatsoever for Bayern, but I just don't see them as having the nefarious historical legacy of duplicity, cheating and double standards that the rags have made their default setting for as long as I can remember.
Bayern may well ape the rags in some respects, but when it comes to being scumbags on that scale, they are mere apprentices, and more reminiscent of the classless chavdom that Chelsea seem to have made their unique selling point.
