Vincent Kompany | Bayern Munich Manager

Hey, if all goes well, he could be rocking up at the Old Toilet!

fingers crossed

Saw two games Burnley played against Chelsea and the rags, totally dominated the play but just couldn't score. Quick transition passing and proper possession football. I see why Bayern want him. The philosophy is there but he just didn't have the right players at Burnley

His keepers could have kept him up had they not made some silly errors but overall the squad in total wasn't good enough. (or at least that's my take)

Burnley also got the shitty end of the VAR stick.

Good luck Vinny. Imagine he had turned the move down and then got the boot from Burnley in October if they found themselves outside the top 6 in the Championship which is quite the possibility!

Perfect. 2 years to do well with them & come back home to us & replace pep (that’s if pep goes)

Possibly, but the point still stands the optics are bad.

I think that's a mad take tbh. They were a shambles when he took over and after the leveraged buyout etc they genuinely had the aura of one of those clubs that could keep freefalling through the divisions. To take over and get them promoted with a record points total was an outstanding achievement. Even having taken them back down again he's left them in a far better position than when he joined. The reason they have players chosen by Kompany is because all of their best players left or were sold when they were relegated and that's hardly his fault. It's Kompany's picks and loans that got them back in the PL in the first place. Football is fickle and your stock can fall very quickly. He obviously has to take this opportunity now it's in front of him and even the most biased ought to be able to look at it objectively enough to see that.

Or fail and become our sporting director when Tkixi finally calls it a day.

In 2011-12, Bayern didn't win any trophies. The following season, 2012-13, they became the first German club to win the Treble...

In 2023-24, Bayern didn't win any trophies. The following season, 2024-25...

I thought he made a mistake going to Burnley.

Turns out the mistake was doubting him.
