    Given the royal fuck up of a transfer window…barring Kane…he’s done wonders. I don’t want to hear a peep from nagelsmann apologists.

    For those who don’t know:

    xG : Expected goals (probability of scoring opportunity)

    rolling xG : “combined” average of all the xG values up to a certain date. (e.g. Game 5 means average of Game 1+2+3+4+5)

    trendline: a fitted curve showing the relationship between relevant data points. also known as regression line here I believe.

    No depth, injuries and yet, Bayern are improving and cruising in the league. I think it’s a matter of time until Leverkusen come back to earth.

        They’ll get hit harder by AFCON which I think will be the difference in the end

          I mean we will play against them after jan transfer, we cannot play any better than we are playing rn we are literally winning every match convincingly and no way they can defeat us

        Like even when we lose the League this year and get no title, we should keep it as it is. Heck we did the same in 2012 and look how that played out. Also did not have depth in 2012 and no defensive mid (gustavo maybe). Just get a rhytm, get depth in winter and summer 24 and build something

        They have less depths so they will probably drop points when they reach the later stages of Europa league. Also don’t forget Bayern often activates cheat code after winter break.

        They do but they’re not “greatest Buli team of all time” solid like their current form.

    This is such a weird season lmao. It’s very rare that I watch one of our games and think that we performed well over 90 minutes, but basically every single statistic that I see here or on r/soccer, of either Bayern as a whole or of individual players, would suggest that we are basically getting an A+ in everything.

    Then again, if we win the CL like this I won’t complain for a second

      The one thing I feel is happening is that we seem to be fairly improved in not giving away goals when the opponent creates chances and that Sané and Kane are having a top 5 performance in europe. I think the first part is Tuchels playstyle and Sané and Kane benefit from it. I wonder how Tuchel makes them play shit enough to invite opponents to get countered .

      “Psychopath”, “mental disorder”, “football terrorist” (any of those inane Taliban puns for here), etc. Some users on here need to do some honest soul searching whether that is the energy they want to put out in the world over a football coach deciding not to sub a player.

      I feel like we are more of a reactive team this season, which means we won’t dominate 90 minutes of every game but i think will help us in big games like in CL

        That’s how Real Madrid won most of their CL titles. They rarely dominated games. It was basically bend dont break and relied heavily on individual brilliance.

          Its not how we won our CLs in recent times though - just pointing out there are different tactical approaches to win the CL.

      I appreciate pragmatic football. I dont see why Bayern has to play TikiTaka, 60% possession all the time for it to be „good“ football, when we have such deadly players on the counter. Be safe in defence and the rest will come from the talent we have up front

      I’m glad you enjoyed the carnage under Nagelsmann that wasn’t sustainable with the big gaping hole in the midfield and all that, but the team will still try to win. If you’re not entertained by it that’s ok, the football bubble is gonna burst one day anyways with all the entertainment around so one less fan won’t make a difference

      I mean if we win the CL in the end I couldn’t give less of a shit about how we played but yeah, often it’s really not that nice to watch.

      On the other hand, we had instances in the past where we played really well and appealing in the CL and still lost. I’d take a dirty 1:0 win over ties like PSG 2 years ago or some Real games 5 years ago.

        but yeah, often it’s really not that nice to watch.

        Even if one doesn’t care about the style, it also (still) looks a bit unsafe at times. If they got the points with boring looking football but looked in control over the game fewer people would worry.

    I was one of the skeptics calling for his head after last season. But he has slowly won me over, except for a few Tucheliban moments, him and the team is consistently improving.
