Those draws to Hannover and Nurnberg really hurt. Those are matches you should be winning, and Bayern are!

What makes them look worse is the fact that you beat them in Munich!

Ā 

Ā 

They did. Could be the decisive matches of the season... :(Ā

A late congratulations with the title win!
This season seems to go just a a little bit less smooth.

Champions League seems to be a stuggle again. With the teams from outside Germany it seems your team faces more diffeculty.Ā 

The German Cup was unlucky, drawing Bayern so soon.Ā 

It seems so indeed... The Cup wasnĀ“t that important to me, but it hurt that it was against Bayern of all teams :(Ā

THE BUNDESLIGA TABLE

We finish the season in 3rd position, behind Bayern AND Dortmund. There COULD have been more in it for us, the chances were there to take. But we just squandered a lot of these chances and drew/lost against so-called minor teams. Best example being our defeat at home against Jahn Regensburg in the penultimate game of the season. Martinez & Petkovic were on fire again though but to no avail.

We started comfortably into the knockout rounds, defeating Atletico convincingly. Then came Man City and we were knocked out once more by an English team.

The season wasnĀ“t THAT bad. Not at all. The team has grown together nicely and we are scoring lots of goals. LetĀ“s just hope there will be a more successful outcome next year. The potential to win more silverware is there, definitely. We wonĀ“t have to add too many new players IĀ“d say as this is a tight knit bunch.

SEASON 2035/36

THE TRANSFERS

spacer.png

No prominent departures this time. Maybe long-time servant Tom Krauss and Cristian Galli, who would not make it here. I regret losing Ibrahim Berber, as he was an exciting prospect but sometimes you canĀ“t do anything. The rest are loans to our affiliate and other clubs to gain match practice.Ā 

spacer.png

Four new players. Patino bolsters our central midfield, Garelli and Henrion are planned for the wings and Zdravkov is a right back talent.

Ā 

THE TEAM ANALYSIS

Goalkeepers

Nothing at all has changed here.

Defenders

spacer.png

ZdravkovĀ is a bright talent on the right. Nothing else has changed here either. Unterberger develops well.

GarelliĀ is ready for the first team. Patino is a backup.

A great start to the season, despite the unlucky last game. Bayern have lost three, but still close enough to push you all the way. Surprised to see St Pauli in 4th!

Going well in your annual DFB-Pokal trophy-lifting preliminary matches, and also good Champions League form.

This is a good point - in fact my squad was going the same way till i took notice and brought in a few German players in the last window. Even then i think we had 6-7 of them total in the squad.Ā

16 points ahead of our former nemesis. Martinez scoring 33 goals and winning the POTY award. The big question is: Is this the power shift in german football? The Gotterdammerung? It somehow feels like. Bayern are getting older and older and seem on the decline. But we will have to wait for next season to get a proper answer on this.

Ā

Guess whoĀ“s that hattrick striker? Hernandez is OUR player out on loan at St. Pauli! And he nearly cost us this title. Nearly.

We were flying through to the quarter finals and then we go out against RB LEIPZIG of all teams!!! A big disappointment at first sight, but we really can be proud of our european journey, beating Juventus and PSG on the way, especially about that second leg vs PSG where we came back from the dead to win it:Ā 

spacer.png

An unbelievable match where I had lost all hope already but my boys made me proud. Especially super-sub Robbie Blackburn who scored a brace. PSG were of course bad losers and the pressĀ hated us for eliminating the star squad.Ā Our captain praised my half time-talk though which I found nice.

A fantastic season for almost everyone! Blackburn showed that he can be more than a super sub and the season also saw the emergence of Ziemann as an assist king. Patino will leave after this season and so will Lucio Flavio who never made it here. To be honest, there really is no need for new players as this bunch is so tight knit. This is a proper team.

THE YOUTH TEAM

Our U19s fwon the Leauge! In a dominant season there was no doubt whoĀ“d win it in the end. In the DFB Pokal der Junioren, they lost against VfL Bochum U19s in the 2nd round,Ā and inĀ theĀ UEFA Youth LeagueĀ they reached the final, losing to Barcelona U19s only after an unlucky penalty shootout.

SEASON 2036/37

THE TRANSFERS

spacer.png

PedoneĀ“s departure hurts because he had lots of potential. But he wanted to leave so we let him. Garelli wasnĀ“t that good so we took the money. The rest are loans for our youth players.

spacer.png

Lasisi is a world class talent who already got caps for Germany, but we loaned him back to his former club for this season to help him get more playing time in this young age of onlyĀ 18 years. We needed a backup keeper and Noll came in. He wonĀ“t play much though.

Ā 

THE TEAM ANALYSIS

Goalkeepers

spacer.png

Behind Bruno, Academy product Ekwalla and Noll will battle it out.

Defenders

spacer.png

ZdravkovĀ is developing well, Mohammed Adams is an Academy product with bags of talent.

Finally a really really good start into the season! No defeat this time. And all that despite Martinez only having scored 11 in the league. ThatĀ“s because Blackburn is evolving as a great striker and we had to rotate more which proved beneficial to the team. Lovely to see Bayern only in 6th, already 15 points behind us. Good times.

This probably has been the best season since Baxter took over. A fantastic season if you only look at the attacking power we had. Still, our defense was a mess in some games, as everyone could witness in both the DFB Pokal and Champions League Final. Maybe we need players there who know how to cope in a final. We will see about that.
