Re: Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich(Clash of the Titans)

Muller has been off form, Kroos will allow us control the game.

BTW Lahm was rested for this match, I think he has played all league matches for nearly 3 years now or so.

Schweinsteiger and Gustavo should be DM's next game, kroos between ribery and robben behind gomez.. Muller should just relax for the rest of the season, hopefully this summers euro cup will snap him out of his funk.

I think Don Jupp is gonna play Kroos either way, I just personally think that Madrid will have more to worry about with Müller there, not that he's a better player than Kroos, I just think he'll be of more use, because he's a direct goal threat, Kroos will get marked by a midfielder to try and keep him from distributing, but Müller would actually need a shadow every time he gets remotely near the box.

stfu, you haven't been watching any Bayern game, Muller is useless this season and Madrid has no reason to worry about him as much as Kroos...getting tired of people defending a player that's not reaching potential.

*bleep* sake if Muller can't adapt whose fault is it, the coach or him..?

Take a valium and reread your post, maybe you can get your point across a bit nicer, mate.

I have been watching Bayern closely all season, that's why I knew months before you that Badstuber was playing well. And so is Müller. And he is just different to Kroos - much more direct, and I think a more direct approach will give Real more trouble. Because a nice, ball-retaining Kroos is just going to get pressed, a Müller sprinting at the defence isn't really troubled by good pressing, he only cares about proper marking, and those defenders already got Robbéry and Gomez to worry about. Is my point.

by The Messiah Sat Apr 14, 2012 7:55 pm

But that do not win us matches, of what use is Muller runs when they do not win us matches...? Kroos has won us many matches this season, have as much Goals as Muller and More assist from the Midfield. Scored CPL goals and important assists, plus important goals. CPL wise he's among the best performing Midfielders this season, many website had him in their cpl team of the season so far, while Muller hasn't even scored 1 goal and have just 1 assist in 6 cpl matches

Hey< that Badstuber thing I give you credit, but he's not that great to be honest, he's still a bit behind Boateng. But yeah, he's not a bad defender.

Muller played 42 matches(Including 3 as sub) with 6 goals and 9 assist, this season for Bayern.

Kroos 42 matches (including 3 as sub) with 7 goals and 12 assist, plus Kroos is usually involve in most of our goals, that's assist to the assist.

by BAYERN_MUNICH Sat Apr 14, 2012 7:56 pm

omg we took the worst moment for a crisis, before the Real match -.-

I hope there will happen something in the few days, otherwise we have no chance.

by VivaStPauli Sat Apr 14, 2012 8:26 pm

What crisis? Bayern were obviously playing half-gear today, it's pretty perfect, they'll be rested and without injuries.

by The Messiah Sat Apr 14, 2012 8:30 pm

Plus the players lack motivation winning the match or whatsoever.

I enjoyed the match, but again I was highly disappoint with Muller's performance, Contento might even become a better FB than Alaba, Tymo played terribly and Rafinha was just being his usual self, but I trust him to bounce back next season or so.

Schweini was playing nearly as CB today, Badstuber is suspended for the next match, Lahm finally get a rest, I mean it was a good match.

by VivaStPauli Sat Apr 14, 2012 8:36 pm

Müller was easily the best offensive player on the pitch in that match.

Clearly you didn't watch that match and I guess, Goal.com has deceived you again. :facepalm:

by VanDeezNuts Sat Apr 14, 2012 8:58 pm

bayern rested players

we rested no one and fought very hard to win over sporting.

i dont like madrids chances in the first leg.

i guess xabi will be rested

They can rest when they're dead. This is when you win trophies.

I wasn't deceived when I rated Goodstuber and most people didn't. Wasn't deceived when I rated Gomez and most people didn't. Wasn't deceived when I rated Podolski and most people didn't.

Müller is boss.

GET INNNN

You getting it wrong, I have always rated Gomez as one of the best strikers in the world.

Badstuber isn't that good but he's not as bad as I thought he was going to be. Yeah, he has really improved at some point this season, maybe because he now play alongside fast Boateng or because he plays much more deeper now, otherwise he was a bad defender last season and to be honest Rwo Power had more faith in Badstuber than anyone else.

Of course Muller is a Boss, everyone rate him highly but he's just playing way way below par this season, No one is saying he's not a good player, as a matter of fact I rated him as one of the top 15 player in the world, but he has just been terrible this season and I can't accept that level of performance and if you do actually think he's bossing things this season, then I dont know what else to say.

by VivaStPauli Sat Apr 14, 2012 10:45 pm

Ok, so you called him shit this season, which is still wrong.

by Sushi Master Sat Apr 14, 2012 11:55 pm

I'd play Müller away at the Bernabeu. He has much better workrate and would be more useful when the key point would be to not conceed. If Bayern can win at home without leaking a goal, then there's definitely a good chance.

Robben should start for the home game, since all the firepower is needed then. Kroos starts both games because without Kroos there's no effective link between midfield and attack. Gómez lacks technique and Schweini needs to play deep and boss the midfield.

by Zealous Sun Apr 15, 2012 1:33 pm

Howard Webb will be referee for the first leg.

In other news it is now Xabi Alonso hunting season in Bavaria.

by VivaStPauli Sun Apr 15, 2012 1:34 pm

Too bad they sold Mark van Bommel.

by The Franchise Sun Apr 15, 2012 2:37 pm

A very intresting dynamic of this match to me will be Ozil vs Gustavo/Schweinsteiger.

Schweinsteiger seems to play slightly higher up than Gustavo and on the left. I imagine Gustavo will have to watch the space when Cristiano tries to come onside on Lahm so Lahm doesnt have to follow him all the way and leave the flank exposed for Marcelo overlap.

So, Schweinsteiger has an important role in watching Ozil. However, with Schweinsteiger playing slightly further forward with the ball often linking play, quick transitions could leave him free. Especially considering Ozil is so great at moving into space laterally.

Really something I will be looking out for.
