According to a report from Sport Bild (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), things could be heating up between Bayern Munich and VfB Stuttgart winger Chris Führich: The arrival of Führich likely depends on how many wingers Bayern Munich sheds during the summer. Kingsley Coman, Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sané, and Bryan Zaragoza have all been linked to a move away from Bayern Munich. Losing one or two of those names could open a spot for Führich with plenty of cash left over. Looking for more thoughts and...
Bayern Munich did not let this one slip. Having secured a 2-0 lead at half-time over a struggling foe on the road, the Bavarians made sure to make quick work of their opposition in the second half, wiping away bitter memories of Heidenheim by smashing Union Berlin 5-1. Quick hitters is how Union went down, so some quick hitters before we get to the voting: How did everyone do? Have your say below! Looking for a more in-depth review of the game?

Bayern Munich defeated Union Berlin 5-1 with a series of impressive finishes. The Bavarians only registered an xG of 1.86 on 19 shots, but were incredibly effective in their chances. With four different scorers, Bayern’s attack spread it around, scoring five goals for the fifth time this season. After the grueling midweek Champions League win over Arsenal, Thomas Tuchel gave a bunch of starters the night off. Seven of today’s starters were 29 years or older, but they brought a youthful energy to...
One hour until kickoff: We have lineups! Looks like Thomas Tuchel has opted for a rotated Bayern Munich XI today. Thomas Müller starts with Harry Kane, Choupo-Moting, and Mathys Tel forming a front four of three natural strikers and an attacking midfielder. Aleksandar Pavlović also returns to the XI! Bayern Munich will not win the Bundesliga this year, but that doesn’t mean that German football run out of stories to tell. While the Bavarians set their gaze on (potential) Champions League...
Bayern Munich’s Dayot Upamecano is having a difficult time right now, but he started the season in a really strong fashion. Coming off the back of a poor patch of form to end the season, he formed a partnership with Kim Min-jae that ousted Matthijs de Ligt from a starting position and retained his spot despite injuries for the majority of the season. Then it happened again: Rushed back from an injury, Upamecano suffered against Bayer Leverkusen before earning two straight red cards against Lazio...
Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane is fully focused on the Champions League bout against Arsenal FC When he was asked at the press conference before the game what his thoughts are on a potential return of current Germany national team coach Julian Nagelsmann, the Englishman said the following, as captured by @iMiaSanMia: “To be honest, I don’t know him too well, I don’t know the whole situation with the coach for next season. What I know is that Thomas is here until the end of the season. And...
Sometimes, we hopeful Bayern Munich fans are a tad naive. After both Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman succumbed to injuries in recent games (Gnabry against Arsenal FC and Coman against FC Köln), it seemed set that Thomas Müller would return to the team for a crucial second leg against Arsenal in the Champions League. It will not happen based on a report from Bild courtesy of @iMiaSanMia: The tweet mentions the following: It seems that Tuchel is set to try a new combination in Mazraoui and...
Bayern Munich’s search for a head coach could be coming to a close amid new reports Monday that the club has decided on a main target. That target is former head coach Julian Nagelsmann, who was sacked by Bayern little more than a year ago under a previous sporting regime and is currently leading the Germany men’s national team in preparations for this summer’s EURO 2024 tournament. From Sky Sport journalist Florian Plettenberg, via @iMiaSanMia: There is no other way to put it — this would be a...
One hour until kickoff: We have lineups! Looks like Thomas Tuchel has opted to rest some key players as Bayern Munich will be without Jamal Musiala and Leon Goretzka today. Leroy Sané is out of the squad entirely while Thomas Müller returns to the XI as captain with Manuel Neuer out. Bayern Munich ends up with the following XI: With nothing left to play for in the league, Bayern Munich come into this game with the mindset that everything needs to be a prep game for the Champions League. That’s a...
Let’s make one thing clear — the Bundesliga is done and dusted, Bayern Munich are not winning it this year. So, instead of going all-out trying to beat 17th placed FC Köln, Thomas Tuchel is going to use this opportunity to test some solutions for the Arsenal game coming up next week. That means starting players in new positions, and potentially resting key starters with the potential of extra time in midweek. Of course, all this will take place without Thomas Tuchel himself physically present on...
