FC Bayern München Thread [2008/09]

I think Enke would be the obvious choice. He's a solid, experienced goalie and won't be expensive.

Zhirkov is supposedly our top transfer target for the fullback position, Lahm wants to move to the right side.

I am still not sold of this Baumjohann guy. He looks to me like a second coming of Shlaudraff. I mean he was discarded at Schalke and all of a sudden became great in Glad'bach? I am not sold on him at all.

He didn't become great at Gladbach, he wasn't even a starter when he agreed to join Bayern. The Schlaudraff comparison is perfectly valid here. But with both Kroos and probably Sosa gone we need some new squad players. If he turns out to be a decent option to have come off the bench then this deal was a bargain, if not we'll sell him in a year or two. It's better than to sign another South American flop for xx millions.

I was watching some TSV clips and i noticed they had a pair of youngsters i really liked. They turned out to be twins lol. I am talking about Lars and Sven Bender. Since Vince is here and since we all agree he is more in touch with German talent i wanted to get his take on those two. Anything in particular? Or just hyped kids?

Lars Bender is a very promising prospect, he has been dubbed the new Effenberg. However these kids should take one step at a time. They will definitely play in the Bundesliga next season as half the league is interested in them. I bet they will end up at a midtable/Uefa Cup team which is the best environment for their development.

Some other kid from 1860 Munich, Timo Gebhart, has just moved to Stuttgart and scored quite a nice goal in his debut. http://videos.sapo.pt/ljt6ZzokGvszgzjwabQz

Good thing we sold Jansen last summer

Well we got Tymo so i really have no feelings on him leaving. If him leaving means we can go on the market and get a new CM than i am all for Cana.

totally agree!

Guys, Juri Zhirkov is not a LB, he's a left midfielder so not the replacement for Lahm, the "Vize-Lahm" could be ZE, and Philipp can be our captain next year, that's great to me! So we need to replace Rensing, the absolute zero, Manuel Neuer is at the top to me, then we need a new RB cause Sagnol is over and Oddo will be 33 old, we got only Lell; we need 4 CB and we got Lucio, Micho, Breno and van Buyten, hope they all will stay with us; then Tymo is great, maybe he can play with Zè or Borowski, but think we need another "number 4"; if we miss Ribery Aleksandr Hleb would be decent ok, but not so much; on the RM Schweini cannot be in the starting line and Hamit is better; in attack we have to replace Poldi, I dream about Mario Gomez, but we've to pay attention cause Toni and Klose cannot be forever; I'd try Butt in the next matches and get off Rensing. So, let's go Bayern anyway!!!!!

Tomorrow too hard match in Bremen, we miss surely Oddo and maybe Lucio;

Aufstellung
Werder Bremen
Wiese - C. Fritz, Mertesacker, Naldo, Pasanen - Frings - Tziolis, Özil - Diego - Pizarro, Hugo Almeida
Trainer: Schaaf

Bayern München
Rensing - Lell, Lucio, Demichelis, Lahm - van Bommel, Zé Roberto - Schweinsteiger, Ribery - Klose, Toni
Trainer: Klinsmann

what i see in bayern matches is that

yes, we'r playing this way now, without a number 4 so we got too many troubles.......

here my dream 4 next year:

NEUER

ODDO(LELL, RAFINHA)-LUCIO-MICHO(V.BUYTEN, BRENO)-LAHM(ZE)

TYMOSCHUK-CANA(ZE, OTTL, HAMIT, BOROWSKI)

HAMIT(SCHWEINI, DONOVAN, RIBERY)-RIBERY(HLEB, OLIC, NEW AM)

TONI-KLOSE(GOMEZ)


....and for the rest of this season i'd tried so:

BUTT

ODDO-LUCIO-VAN BUYTEN(BRENO)-LAHM

MICHO

VAN BOMMEL(HAMIT)-ZE(BOROWSKI)

RIBERY

KLOSE-TONI

SURE? but Cana is younger......so why don't u give us Eto'o, Henry, Messi and Bojan lol?!

My brother lives in Barcelona and he's fan of the "blaugrana" so I know anything about Barca

bybuti;2633539 said:

Cana is 25 now (July '83). He's young but don't think you need both, Cana and Tymo. Actually, I have never seen Tymo playing. I can't judge him and I don't know what is exactly his role, but for Cana I can say that he's a pure DM (he can do well as DC and CM as well). You need a class player in the center of midfield, Cana can be a class player as a DM but not as a playmaker or such. You need a player that can make the difference there. Cana just can stop opponent players to make the difference.

He was injured for almost 2 months and now he's back. I hope he gets back in his form soon, so more clubs will be interested in him. Also my NT needs him.

tx Bybuti; u never seen Tymoschuk? Strange, I know him from some years and I find him the better number 4 in the world, lucky to have him since july! Lorik Cana will ends up in England or Spain I guess, ciao

i have seen tymo and his role its absolutely the same as cana, cana its more dirty, tymo its a sure performace but not for much long because he is alread 30, but he made an awesome work and its a kind of player that bayner doenst has (ottl never play)

good so much respect here between fans

tx to u mate! .....but u like me support 3 teams?

Tymoschuk is great; 30 millions+Hleb for Ribery? For me that's all ok!!!!!

I wouldn't sell Ribery for all the gold in the world but that is just me. Although i have to admit if Barca comes up with that offer our front office will pull the trigger right away. Yeah we are that messed up. Although i kind of understand. We as Bayern Munchen EV always had that type of philosophy. With 30 Million we can sign Diego and the tally turns out to be Hled + Diego (30 Mill) for Ribery. I would still be upset but i think i could live with that.

Is Hleb not getting any playing time at Barca?

bybuti;2633561 said:

btw, there are some rumors for Ribery. €30M + Hleb.

Click to expand...

That's a very interesting offer, and I think Bayern would have to consider it. I say this and I absolutely love Ribery. 30M we could probably turn into Diego and a top right back (someone mentioned Rafinha, who is good, but I'd prefer a player who is a little more solid in defense. Of course our team (and all German teams) relies on a lot of crosses from the fullbacks, so we would have to really find a unique player who can send in great crosses and defend too. Hinkel would be a good option, and another one I've been thinking of is Mickael Chretien at Nancy in the french league, Moroccan international. Anyone watch enough of the french league to give a good opinion? I know he's been linked to Blackburn, Lyon, and Sevilla.

About what paolo said with Micho playing DM, I too am surprised that we have not experimented with it, but it would mean no real use of wingers, which is no good for us I think.

Deisler, we'r not Rummenigge and Uli Höness so the decison must be taken by them, of course if somebody says me "Ribery out, Diego and Hleb in" I say ok, but I's wish Frenck to stay with us til the end his career.......

So today in Bremen we miss after Oddo Luca Toni and Daniel v.Buyten, hope Klinsi will be not so stupid to let Podolski play, I'd play this way today remembering that the match is very hard and we could be smashed again:

........WHY NOT 4-2-3-1?

With Magath MICHO has been a good number 4, but he had Ballack close to him lol

I love football, so it's impossible to see some league matches without having favourites there. I respect bayern and I liked them back to matteous time.

Yes that is how we should play. We should send Podolski home and let him go train with Koln now because he cannot help us now. He is just not interested in FCB anymore (maybe he never was). Borowski should definitely play because he will be motivated to do well at his old club.

totally agree! but remember we don't play only vs 11 bremen's players but against 15, referee, linesmen and 4th man as usual, i'm curious to watch the highlights of the match of Hamburg, how many mistakes will make the ref? we'll see.......
