Hazard for Ribery , Griezmann for Robben

If Bayern wants to go smoothly for the anti-Robbery era the only solutions are these two guys and we are set for the next 10 years but it won't happen of course, I'd like to know when they will buy a player of this caliber for the wings,stable financials but for what?

If we don't find, and I think something like the following would be awesome


Subs: Gaudino, Hojbjerg, Kurt, Kimmich,Green, Steve Ribery,

Franck Ribery is an inverted winger, for replace him properly by his brother, Steeven best leg should be the right foot, in order to play inverted at the left.

But this goal means he has individual qualities that promise a good future with the first team.

Apart from that wonderful goal is there any other footage of Steven Ribery before we all get too excited?

Personally I don't see much about Steveen Ribery to get excited about....

absolutely right.

When Steeven came to Bayern Franck himself said that his brother will give his best, but that he (Franck) does not yet know if he is good enough for professional football.

Ten Hag says he sees big potential in Steeven Ribéry

What about Leroy Sane. I think he is left footed though.

Too young, it's his first season in the senior team. Draxler and Meyer can't even be consistent at this point. But him and Meyer's chemistry is really something else.

I think that it is time, with great sadness, to start bringing to a close Ribery's time as a regular player at Bayern Munich (injuries have already half-ensured that job over the last two seasons). Assuming that we are going for a like-for-like replacement (which is by no means certain under Pep Guardiola), in my opinion we would need someone who can step in and start performing from day 1, obviously not immediately up to Ribery's standard, but someone who isn't a 'talent' or 'has potential', but a young player who can step to the fore. Accordingly, my choices are as follows, in no particular order.

1.) Eden Hazard

Pros: Certainly the best like-for-like replacement for Ribery that there is, with great dribbling, vision and not afraid to go for goal.

Cons: Difficult and expensive to prise away from Chelsea, especially with Mourinho at the helm.

2.) Memphis Depay

Pros: Cheaper than Hazard, more easily obtainable and has shown he can turn in match-winning performances.

Cons: Unproven at the very highest level, and has had only one exceptional season, Also the least like-for-like replacement available.

3.) Marco Reus

Pros: Proven in domestic and international football, should have a good understanding with our players from the national team (and ex-Dortmund teammates), and is also similar to Ribery in terms of dribbling/skill.

Cons: Taking a third player from Dortmund in 3 seasons, as well as a very likely reluctance to move on his part due to Tuchel's coming in and a huge price if he does.

4.) Kevin de Bruyne

Pros: Proven in domestic football, has a great set of skills.

Cons: Unproven at highest level, has only had one brilliant season, has played more as a 10 than a winger, could end up being a Goetze mk 2.0 situation (a brilliant player as the focus of his team shines less when he moves to a superior team).

Reus' injuries is the only con I see in him. I don't care about the media claiming we're destroying a team that destroys itself anymore.

Kurt left a nice impression on me in his first appearance. I think he'll make it.

I think he has a good chance too, particularly his speed was impressive yesterday, but he will not be ready by next season and I think the board will want to make a move this summer. Even by next summer he may not have reached the level we need for first XI action
