Bayern Munich is on a roll.
The club has been carving teams up like a katana through crepe paper. It has been a joy to watch this team reach their best under Vincent Kompany.
With Olise, Diaz, and Kane performing
up front like they’ve been thus far, and the rest of the team clicking around them, the returns of Alphonso Davies and Jamal Musiala would give the team that additional push that would further separate them from the rest of the pack in Europe.
In a recent interview with Tz (@tzmuenchen) as covered by @iMiaSanMia, Manuel Neuer admitted that “some people would be upset if I said it was the best [laughs].” However, he added, “I simply think it’s one of the best.”
He then went on to add, “It’s a lot of fun to play in this team and under this coaching staff. We’re a unit; that’s the most important thing.” This is highly encouraging, and Kompany and the staff seem to have struck the right balance… the players are thriving as a unit, everybody is fighting for the badge, and the morale seems to be high.
Europe, beware.
BFW Analysis
While a diplomatic answer is to be expected from the longtime captain of Bayern, Manuel Neuer (also the greatest goalkeeper of all time), it is clear that he believes this side is AT LEAST one of the best ever, and possibly the absolute best Bayern side of all time. And there would be a lot of truth to that, thus far at least.
For starters, Bayern is having a historic Bundesliga season, with no other Bundesliga side in history having registered more points at this stage in the season. Moreover, the goal difference is also historic, with the team scoring goals at an alarming rate and conceding very few. The team is also alive and thriving in other competitions, with a DFB Pokal quarterfinal matchup against RB Leipzig looming on the horizon and a comfortable second berth in the Champions League group stage table.
The team is on track to win every trophy possible. If the players all stay healthy, and Kompany doesn’t encounter a Freaky Friday-esque body swap with Thomas Tuchel, there is no stopping this team.
The transfer from Crystal Palace will be looked back upon as one of the most important transfers Bayern Munich has ever made. What a deal for one of the best players in the world.
