FC Bayern Forum

I always thought Ribs-Lewa would work perfectly once together.

If Hojbjerg doesn't get regular time this season I'll lose my mind! Absolutely brilliant! He has fresh energy of a youth and the intelligence of an experienced player.

Also I really liked our style today, much less tedious and more attacking than yesterday.

We should stick with three at the back.

Last year, even before we won the treble, there were already rumours of Rode joining us. Many asked why and I clearly remember saying he would be the perfect transfer because the only thing that squad lacked was a true backup for Schweinsteiger.

A lot has changed since then. Since Pep took over it is no longer the case that we struggle a lot without Schweinsteiger (Thiago is the key now). We no longer have Martinez's backup in Gustavo. Heck, Martinez himself is no longer in midfield.

I admit that over the past few months I have not rated Rode much. Maybe because he wasn't playing, but I wrote him off as one who would hardly play. Based on what I saw today, and what you guys said about him yesterday, it looks like I will be proven wrong. He is showing why I said what I said about him a year ago. This is simply fantastic.

Like I said in chat, if at least two of Bernat, Rode, and Hojbjerg impress, then Kroos leaving is a blessing. It opens up another spot in midfield to add a faster, more dynamic and fluid midfielder. We can expect a different style this season from what we're seeing and based on our squad. A possession-based and tiki-taka style, yes, but one that passes less around the box and attempts quicker combinations and through passes (directed towards our new killer striker). This is what I dream of seeing. For me it is the best style of football.

A shout out to you, Martinez had a decent game at CB, better than he's usually had with Bayern. Hope he keeps it up if that's the plan with him.

??? Martinez was pretty horrible again today. Ok he didn't cost us a penalty this time, but he was still anything but solid and had to depend again on those around him.

Badstuber on the other hand I'm having nothing but increasing confidence in his form.

Martínez was good today.

Can't wait to see Lahm play in midfield.

I started sawing the game when the goals where scored and game was done, so can't comment the game but LewanGOALski and Ribery will destroy RM if we have to face them. They have some good chemistry.

Already starting the trophy count for the 14/15 season, NICE!

Didn't get to see the match but from the sound of things this Lewandowski fella seems pretty decent.

I know it's very early but, so glad to hear what you guys are saying about the performances of Hojbjerg and more specifically Rode. What a luxury to infuse some fresh, young talent into the team without having to pay some ungodly amount of money. Love it!

Indeed, compared to Madrid, i am sure the new guys Bayern got for the coming season, will fit immediatly. Rode gave a pretty good performance in the Telekom Cup, just as Hojbjerg. But i have to say, i was really disappointed when Mandzu left, but the way Lewandowski handles the ball, creates space and chances, are just incredible. Just like the goal yesterday against Gladbach and especially the 2nd against Wolfsburg today where just coolness himself. Though this is pre-season, i am really looking forward to Robben and Muller coming back aswell just like Thiago.. Feeding monsters for Lewa haha..

I thought havi was great this match ge did all that was ask but badstuber Is amazing showing more and more why he was the best defender in Germany..Rode was great and hojberg and I thought alaba was good today though I would prefer him at benat position but great game and also we were direct in this game at least more than usual
