    Bundesliga

    Sevilla and Bayern had clocked 144 and 143 kilometres not even 72 hours before their respective next matches. And Bayern plays a playing style that is physically demanding. It was clear before that Hoffenheim with their playstyle will be really a challenge. Bayern's biggest concern is probably...

    Philippe Coutinho

    Bayern's goat doctor is a professor and doctor of sport science and performance diagnostics (not of medicine) and fitness coach - whose knowledge and bundles of SAP data (Bayern works closely together with SAP) get really used of Flick now - in difference to former coaches, where his knowledge...

    Bayern München

    Yes, it is thin. But look at M?ller's injury history and because of the fraud in the national team he gets his breaks in the international breaks. M?ller even seldom gets so called "performance related breaks" during the training sessions that others often get. And Lewy always wants to play and...

    Serge Gnabry

    A good story from him in the Player's Tribune where he tells about his way https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/the-most-important-unimportant-thing-in-life-serge-gnabry-bundesliga So to be able to wear that red Bayern kit now, for real … it’s amazing. But remember, it’s not just...

    Serge Gnabry

    Goretzka and Sane grew up only some kilometres away and met with 11 in the same local secondary school playing for the school team. They had different paths, too, but later met as young players at Schalke.

    Serge Gnabry

    After doing some club hopping he is now playing with his old friends together at a top club. Kimmich and him already played together some years in Stuttgart youth - Sane, Gnabry, S?le, Kimmich and Goretzka met early in the youth national teams. In some years they will be the backbones and...

    Neymar Jr.

    Di Maria was spitting in Gonzales face already minutes before... This stupid shittalking to each other is not why racism should be banned. If they call the other asshole, tell they are sons of whatever or if they call each other monkeys or whatever does not make a difference.

    Luis Suárez

    Is his wife italian or does she have italian ancestors? Because if you google for B1 level and Italian citizenship they talk about citizenship through marriage. If one of your ancestors is italian it is pretty easy to get an italian passport - even without speaking italian or living there.

    CL | 1/4 Final: FC Barcelona - FC Bayern Munich 2-8

    In 2013 we swam against Juve in the first 15 minutes (until Kroos got injured) - and the first half hour against Dortmund. When you play with such a high line there is always a risk - but at the end the other team needs to convert - and for a reason there is Neuer in goal even if some thought...

    CL | 1/4 Final: FC Barcelona - FC Bayern Munich 2-8

    When I look at the most Bundesliga matches Bayern does not even have more kilometres but often in the recent months it was the fast kilometres and sprints that Bayern excelled in. In the last match against BVB both teams ran 121 kilometres - but Bayern had 287 sprints and 840 intensive runs -...

    Arturo Vidal

    The first two years he was injured a lot - and no, he has not been injury free since but apart from the 17/18 season where he missed for a longer period it was never long. He missed 6 matches in 15/16, 5 matches in 16/17, 20 matches in 17/18 (but then we had James Rodriguez playing in his...

    He is on his way out. Like his friend James who did a long interview with the same interviewer last week!

    Thiago Translantara

    It is how Flick has imported again a functioning pressing and passing system what makes this interesting. He took the established players that learned their "trade" and positional play with van Gaal, Heynckes, Pep into a central axis - gave them a lot trust and responsibility and pushed them...

    Champions League

    Goretzka was in the last year of his contract - so a lot teams probably were interested in signing him. Young, talented player - but injury prone. Maybe not absolute top class but atleast great for a middle class club. I do not think the clubs really thought about him as somebody for the...

    That is in the 52nd minute - the ball came from your defender even if not on purpose and it was then ruled offside.

    CL | 1/4 Final: FC Barcelona - FC Bayern Munich 2-8

    I know that the Bundesliga never seems to count... But since Flick came in November Bayern played 24 Bundesliga matches - 21 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses (the 3rd and 4th Bundesliga match) - with 75 goals for and 16 against won all 4 Cup matches in regular time (+ the title) won all 5 CL matches...

    Philippe Coutinho

    I like to look at the xG numbers when judging transfer prospects as that usually are not lying as much as goals or assists do - especially when it is about players in other systems. Coutinho gives you a good picture in this. https://understat.com/player/488 His xG values are that of a good...
