At least we are winning and the chances of a treble remain untouched

The same question I ask myself since months ago, I dont see what they wanted to play, but maybe it comes more because the players than the coach.

First of all and finally we are back to the 4-2-3-1 lineup that gave us the treble. Unfortunately a great performance of the Heynckes team were destroy completely by Pep that gave us a new identity but not the results we expected.

Now with the 4-2-3-1, I expect to get back not from Pep era, but from the Heynckes era, the problem is that Ribery is injured again, Robben is fit but cant face the mark for the one to one situations as other times, Muller is underperformance and Alaba has not the connection with Costa that he had with Ribery.

At least, there are moments from other seasons that I noticed that champions league matches make Bayern players to take out an extra and this give me hope.

Accidentally thanked. Don't think this is Italian football at all. We're quite weak defensively, we don't know how to counter, we don't have anyone creating chances on his own consistently, we don't even have passion

... plus we don't even have players interchanging positions on the field anymore. Everyone just sticks to his position for 90 minutes, making us too predictable and easy to defend against. Good thing we are getting/grinding the results, but I fear "random crossing" all game long is not going to get us very far on all three fronts, especially the CL.

This is the simplest but the most accurate answer.
TBH I was not expecting champagne and or sexy football... what frustrates me is the choice of players over others and the fact that we play too much with fire

What I'm seeing is a one hell of a lucky coach getting his neck saved by riding on sheer luck -
-Yesterday during the last 10 mins Neuer did wonders and their strikers were not clinical so we hung on a thin 1 goal advantage.
-On Saturday although his team just pulled a draw, he still managed to increase his advantage because of Leipzig's failure.
-Against Freiburg, Lewandowski saved him the blushes with that last gasp goal which nobody knows how it got in.

I don't know how long he's going to get away with this especially in CL, but if he does he's surely 1 lucky bastard - I should ask him to give me the lottery numbers !

I think I found the reason why he keeps his hands in his pockets - he must be holding his lucky charm.....
what were you thinking ?

We should have scored 2 more goals before the 80min

Hummels should've scored... he was pissed off at himself that he didn't.

Italian football, although not our cup of tea, works. What we currently have doesn't really work. We're getting results through luck rather than an actual strategy

Finally back home after a glorious few days in Munich. Glad I got to visit two games in one trip, not that glad that both games were so shit
Some things I noticed during the games:

- Someone should teach Manu to waste time when we're NOT in control of the game in the dying minutes of a 1-0 lead. FFS, he kept kicking it back out immediately, took maybe 2 passes for us to lose the ball again, and for them to set up another attack.
- We're LUCKY AF that Gomez had the flu and could only play for a short while.
- Javi is a beast whom I love with all my heart. Some great moments from him in both matches
- Mats wasn't dealing with the Schalke pressure very well as an ex-Dortmunder....had way too many brain farts
- Lewy and Robben are sync raging a lot at everyone and everything
- The Allianz Arena was way too quiet on Saturday, but was ok for the Pokal game.
- Thiago was very frustrated with himself for a solid 30 seconds after a bad pass. I love that kid's passion so effing much.
- Kimmich and Renato were absolute shit when they came on in the Pokal game. Soooooooooooo many bad passes, losses of possession, loads of groans in the crowd.

Most important one:
Thiago is the bae

Here's some proof I was there (yes again no face, bite me!)

My hair is way more fabulous...I blame shitty hotel shampoo and really weird Munich water. My hair looked like straw without my regular masks
