I don't think anyone is expecting an era.
But maybe a decent season instead of a disaster
Era?
Hes just a short term solution so that the new manager can start fresh and without the baggage
In retrospect it's becoming more clear than ever that Pep was the best thing to happen to Bayern. He worked magic with the squad. To this day the return leg against Athletico is one of the best performances by a Bayern team ever. If it weren't for Mueller forgetting how to shoot penalties they would've and should've advanced.
Pep was sabotaged by our front office. Selling Kroos for 25m was the boards biggest offense with not getting KdB when he was available being close second. I still can't believe how we missed out on Leroy Sane because we didn't want to upset Ribery/Costa. Fuck this shit, the best Bundesliga players leaving for Europe instead of Bayern was the start of our downfall.

Selling Kroos is one of the biggest mistakes they've ever done, probably the worst. It wasn't about Costa, it's once again about RIBERY!! Dude has Uli's nuts wrapped tightly around his hand. Him getting injured is the 3rd best thing to happen to Bayern this season, with 1a and 1b being firing Carlo and bringing in Jupp. It's hard to imagine Bayern getting a proper winger since Ribery's feelings might get hurt. This is the incompetence of our board...
Best thing to happen to Bayern was Jupp, as he gave Bayern the greatest club season of all time. By any team. The problem during Pep era was that the board was cheap as fuck and didn't want to see dinosaur tears as you say. Look at how Pep is spending now, 250m every summer at City.
This to me.. screams Nagelsmann. Hoeness wants him, Rummenigge wanted Tuchel. Jupp will hopefully steady the ship a bit, and I imagine Bayern hire a 30 year old unless they tank the rest of the season.
Guess they weren't impressed by Tuchel's POV.His contract goes until 2020.
You think hed leave early?
I just don't understand how the club has become this leaky again.
How come they know of the Heynckes offer before he accepted it?
I really miss Sammer.
We know the answer... Uli Uli Uli....
hopefully Heynckes is just a master negotiator squeezing every last drop he can get out Bayern knowing full well that Bayern has no other option now.

Syria - Australia is on.
I fear he is too much of a gentlemen to use the desperate situation of his friends.
But I really, really hope he does. Squeeze these fools for what they're worth.
And I agree: the leaks starting reappearing when Uli came back. His interviews are also a disaster. Condemning Costa, mentioning the five players against Carlo...
All of these were absolutely unnecessary.
FC Hollywood is well and truly back

No thanks.
Sammer is a big miss, the guy was constantly against the dumb shit Rummenigge & Co. were pulling on a regular basis. It would also be nice if someone could tell Uli to shut the fuck up for once, guy sounds like oldmanyelling.gif talking about internal talks to the media. Amateur hour.
Nigel Reo-Coker, when at West Ham, tried a similar initiative in the PL. Donating one day's pay to a charity for nurses (I think). It really didn't get any traction.

Kimmich seems like he's gotten an assist or goal every single in the NT for like 2 years as a right back lol.. How is he so good as an attacking wingback. Imagine him with a world class winger in Munich.
Also me waiting for Mueller's NT form to translate to his Bayern form since Carlo took over

his potential is a skeleton?
No, sir this is his potential
More we'd be skeletons by the time it happens 😒
Has Hendo ever scored an England goal? I'd really like him to

They're too afraid to make any risky passes.
Just slow, plodding safe passes. Henderson and Cahill are the worst culprits for it.

Scotland make it hard to support them with kits like that.
"Well, they made it very hard for us" etc.
Not enough Mou players for a 4-0
