Don't think any other game in the world comes close to this for pure entertainment and quality when both teams are on form. Especially since the El Clasico has descended into an orgy of diving, arguing and complaining in recent years. I'd have loved to see the game, and it was on BT Sport 2, but it seems that legally every television in Ireland had to show the New Zealand rugby friendly instead 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Bayern were woeful defensively today. Boateng shocking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Pep really made them into a relentless machine....until they reached the semi finals. Not sure Carlo with his cuddly management is the best fit but his record in this competition is incredible so wouldn't rule them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardiola won 1 away game in knockout stage in 3 seasons at Bayern and that was vs Arsenal. including draws with Benfica, Shakhtar, a David Moyes United and defeat to Porto Edited November 24, 2016 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Bit of a misleading post I made....I meant in the Bundesliga where they'd barely drop a point until January. Bayern are regularly dropping points in the league so think that vulnerability is translating into the CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted November 25, 2016 Moderator Share Posted November 25, 2016 Yep. I know Bayern have a game in hand and there's a long way to go but it just looks weird being 6pts behind Leipzig at this stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1986 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Was at an early RBL game when I was in Dusseldorf, they gave us all black bin bags to wear in the Dusseldorf end to piss off the travelling Leipzig fans as they used to play in black before Red Bull got involved.

And in Leipzig's defence they haven't spent vast sums yet. I'd be interested to know how much their first choice team costs. Werner was their record signing at the time this summer at €10m.

Talk about not knowing what they themselves are. I like the German system for fans and so on but there is corporate sponsorship that influence the game too much even there.
