After Bayern Munich’s dominant 4-0 win over Werder Bremen, captain Manuel Neuer said that he thinks the team has excelled so far this season because of how confident it is and the fact that the squad has so many different ways to hurt the opposition.
“It’s a lot of hard work, I think we’ve started the season well. We benefit from being able to go into games with confidence, and I think our opponents have a bit of respect for us, I don’t want to say fear. We can hurt our opponents with the right positioning
and running lanes,” Neuer said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Neuer has the best vantage point on the pitch of how his teammates are vaporizing everyone who gets in their way. It would be hard to argue that he is wrong about any of what he has said at this point.
Bayern Munich was the home side in the Bundesliga on Friday when Werder Bremen came to town.
The Bavarians decimated the visitors 4-0 in a game that was never really close. Bayern Munich was relentless and dominant in every aspect of the match. It is not as if Werder Bremen did not try, but the players just could not match up with the machine that was Bayern Munich.
