I agree that Kovac should incorporate youth more than he has - that's definitely one area he's failed in. But:

1. he was crucified for too much rotation early in the season, and probably rightly so - the results weren't there, neither was consistency. so, he went totally in the opposite direction and doesn't rotate at all anymore. there should be a middle ground, obviously...
2. he's not in a position to take "risks" in the cup...because everyone is calling for his head even when he wins by small margins
3. Shabani isn't that good, at least compared to other Bayern talents who SHOULD be playing (Mai, Früchtl, Zirkzee, even Jeong Woo-Yeong)

I'm not defending Kovac, but that's the reality of his situation... he's been put in a place where he cannot afford to make any mistakes. Hence, he takes zero risks.

pfff how much of shabani have you seen? and how much of the stalling of his development do you give credit for to kovac? look even james is unhsppy under this dude how could teenagers have hope? yeah, davies was a relatively big money signing with a lot of marketing potential, heavily promoted by the club, so he got some minutes, and even him- not enough lol. btw I don't care what kovac feels employment wise, I care for the team not him

i've seen quite a bit of Shabani... i watch as much Bayern II as I'm able to. He's decent, but absolutely not up to Bayern standards. There are other youth players in our setup who have much more promise than him - Jeong, OBM, Zirkzee to name a few.

Since you follow them much more than me,, could you tell what's your opinion on Will and Mai?

Sure, I think Mai has the quality to be an option for the senior team. I guess some of the youth prospect "shine" has worn off since he's been around for a bit, but he looked pretty good in his couple of appearances last season, and he's a rock for the 2nd team. Actually, my own opinion is that if Bayern doesn't sign de Ligt, they should just promote Mai full time to the senior squad.

I was pretty hopefull for Will, and I think he has a lot of talent, but I want to see how he looks coming back from his injuries. He's 20 now, so I think next season he'll want to play in a higher division. Maybe a loan to the 2nd Bundesliga would be good for him?

As I said before, I try to watch the 2nd team as much as possible, but sometimes it's tough due to broadcasting restrictions. However, I'm moving back to Munich in one month, and I want to go to a bunch of their games next season (especially if they're promoted to 3.Liga).

I have a question: is it eligible for Bayern to have another reserve team to play in the amateur league?

What do you mean in having another reserve team? Each club can only have one reserve team, and that reserve team can only play two divisions lower than the main team.

Thanks, I just wonder if we can push Bayern u17 or 19 to replace Bayern II in the Regionaliga, I guess no way :mrgreen:

They’re not senior teams, they play in youth leagues - players that are good enough will automatically play for one of the two senior teams...

Yes it is possible. There are many restrictions including a cap on how many reserve teams we can have. But the answer to your question is yes, we could have a Bayern III team, I assume they would start at Oberliga or Landesliga level (league 5 or 6).
