Post Match Thread: Barcelona 2-8 Bayern Munich | UEFA Champions League [Bayern are through to the Semi-Finals]

I personally think bayern now has a more dynamic attack and it makes every player dangerous not just the typical strikers/ wingers.

Back in treble days it was pretty clear who to feed the ball too. Robbery comes in hot and whoever is striker gets the ball into the goal. Muller also exists and is just a ghost so you can't count him, he's just there doing his weird thing.

Now its like everyone is a fucking threat because the passing/off the ball movement is just so clean.

I would say the defense is much more attacking in this newer side. Highlighted by what Davies is doing on his side and even Pavard on his. Alaba was very similar to davies and was a very big threat on the wing but he didn't have the sort of support Davies gets now. Lahm was also an insane beast and to this day I dont think they've fully replaced him but Kimmich is very lahm esque when he moves centrally like Lahm did after the treble years.

Midfield was the dynamic duo of Schweini and whoever they put next to him but pretty standard stuff there. We never had a striker like Lewy though back then. Our strikers were good and I love them still (Gomez forever) but nowhere near Lewy.

So yeah. This team looks stronger to me, but the game has changed. Bayern were insane back then and are insane now. Its just different how they play
