Bayern Munich have started the season in red-hot form. In what was one of the most negative summers in recent history, the team has quickly erased all the criticism in a matter of weeks. While most were
quick to criticize the lack of depth in midfield and defense, as well as high transfer fees for aging wingers, the performance on the pitch has been impossible to criticize.
One of the big reasons that Bayern is scoring so many goals is none other than Serge Gnabry. The veteran attacker is seeing a bit of a career resurgence under Vincent Kompany this season. With the early season success, Gnabry is one of many who think Bayern Munich can win the Champions League this season.
“We want to attack every year; we definitely have the potential. I think in recent years we’ve just been lacking a little momentum in the games we’ve played. We’ve never been the worse team in the games we’ve been eliminated in. But that’s football, so we’re attacking again this year,” Gnabry told Sky Germany via @iMiaSanMia.
While Bayern Munich are usually considered strong candidates, the Bavarians are rarely the consensus #1 to win the Champions League. With the momentum stacking each week, is this the year that can change? Even if the media does count out Bayern once again, fans absolutely should not. Get excited Bayern fans.
