Spoiler: show

Just kidding #12 I know “we’re still shit” but I don’t careeee I’m engaged and we won!

And what is best, the engagement or the treble?

Ill find out when and answer when Bayern win their next treble

Neuer vs PSG 3:0 = the day I complain about a performance after a Bayern UCL win will never come. Besides, if there really was anything to complain about we would not have seen victory last night.

I was too young to appreciate the three wins between 74-76, I took them for granted. Then came the agony of a 25 years long wait for the next win, with three lost finals thrown in for good measure. The next title was "only" 12 years away, but again there were two lost finals in between.

And here we are. Like Dortmund back in 2013 PSG forgot to score. Or rather: they could not overcome Neuer. Their problem, not mine.

So: rejoice! These kind of victories don't come that often, so we may as well make the most of it.

This is probably the best season played by a team in football history

It's not just the treble itself. You also need to take into account how the team won every CL match and thrashed the likes of Tottenham (7-2) Barcelona (8-2) or Chelsea (3-0 and 4-1). Can't remember the last time we lost a competitive game but I think it could have been Gladbach ? and that feels like ages ago

I wouldn't say this Bayern team is better than 2012/2013 Bayern. But Flick's high pressing tactics and the form of some of our players have compensated for that.

It is also the first time in years that we are somewhat lucky with injuries.

Good morning European champions fans, how is your day going?

I seriously cannot talk...

I wasn’t (and am not) hoarse but I seriously couldn’t physically talk when the final whistle went off.

I’ve talked about this over the week. I think so too. If not the best in general, they’re definitely the most ruthless team we’ve ever seen.

Two years ago when Bayern were eliminated in heart breaking fashion against Real Madrid in the semifinals I had said this:
To win UCL KO games you need to:
1. Take your chances
2. Keep clean sheets (even ugly ones if need be)

This season we did those things right and thankfully had a full squad at our disposal too. PSG/Lyon missed chances and they lost. Yesterday I think PSG played a very good game and could’ve scored had it not been for poor finishing and Neuer in our goal, but we somehow (even if ugly) kept the clean sheet and until the Coman goal they looked pretty organized forcing Bayern all the way back to Neuer on multiple occasions because there was no space/gap to exploit. But then Bayern took the one chance and the game changed.

Just makes me think that if we had done these two basic things in 2018 (or even 2016 for that matter) and had all our players fit then perhaps we would already be level with AC Milan.. a case of should’ve would’ve could’ve perhaps.

People keep saying well-oiled machine whenever Germany is involved. But this is actually the first time for me a team actually seem like a machine. They just never stop. Even the 2013 Bayern sat back and focused more on defense when they went 1 goal up. This team just keeps pressing the PSG midfield and never gave them time to breath and string a couple of attacks. Every chance PSG got was a counter attack chance out of nothing (errors or missed passes). Thankfully, it's our night.

Haha I just noticed on his celebratory post on Instagram, Neuer put the location as “Stade Veledrome Marseille”.

didn't comment last night after the game - was too pumped up but congrats to everyone here, all the Bayern fans who have been waiting through heartbreaks the past few years to finally get to this point - not only another CL win, but a Treble, and quite possibly the most dominant CL side ever!

for what was a bizarre season overall - starting underwhelmingly with Kovac, passing the reins to our unproven assistant manager, seeing pretty immediate changes in performance and thinking "maybe there is something here"... then to Covid, the long pause, the hesitant return of football, the Bundesliga and Pokal wins, and finally this crazy CL tournament... i feel like it still hasn't hit me yet that we're once again the champions of europe

i'm especially happy for a few key players to have won this CL:

Lewandowski - for having changed his game and become a true team player
Thiago - for finally proving he is a big game player in what is likely his last game with Bayern
Coman - for showing that he does have value to this team
Neuer - his first CL as captain, MOTM performance, and proving he's still GOAT
Boateng - for turning back the clock this season
Kimmich - the first of hopefully many major trophies (eventually as captain? )

Congrats all! MIA SAN MIA!

My favourite part is how Flick casually slips out his phone to message his wife or someone like that.

Congratulations to the team! Amazing season. Thing's can only get better from now on.

Lucas Hernandez is like Vidal and Ribery combined when it comes to celebrating

It was actually Neymar's wife.
