Bayern Munich

Jamal Musiala continued his fine start to the season scoring Bayern's opener as they cruised to victory over Wolfsburg in their Bundesliga home match.

33' GOAL FOR BAYERN! Musiala with a fantastic strike from outside the box. Borussia Dortmund had Jadon Sancho light up the Bundesliga for three seasons in his formative years and Musiala is well-capable of replicating his efforts at the other German giant. They won titles the two years before Robert Lewandowski and are likely to win at least one after his move to Barcelona. The revolving front three of Serge Gnabry, Musiala and Mane, with Muller moving forwards to fill in gaps between them, make them so hard for any domestic opposition to deal with them.

Slowly but surely, Bayern took control and Sadio Mane was denied a first goal in Munich by the flag when he turned in from close-range. The 19-year-old Musiala fired home the opener in the 33rd minute on Sunday before the ever-alert Muller deflected in a second shortly before the interval. First-half goals from Jamal Musiala and Thomas Muller have taken Bayern Munich back to the top of the Bundesliga, thanks to a routine 2-0 victory over visiting Wolfsburg.

But how far Bayern are from that, and how different things are at least trending in the Premier League — perhaps conventional wisdom overstates these. For comparison, Champions League qualification — which for me personally is one of the more intriguing aspects of each Premier League season given the number of top teams in contention — produced a weaker effect and with statistical significance north of the usual boundary (if barely: p = 0.051). Another quote from that working paper is this — “A match with the highest championship significance...would be expected to attract an aggregate audience size 96 percent higher than one with no implications at all for the prizes to be awarded at the end of the season”, teams involved notwithstanding. Those were the days of a different Top Four — or three? Manchester City have won four of the last five; one team ( Leicester City) not named City, Liverpool, Manchester United, or Chelsea FC — a group of five teams — has won it since 2003/04, and that was the Arsenal’s Invincibles year of yore. In Germany, of course, Bayern are the Empire. The baddies, that’s us.

Bayern are looking to dominate the Bundesliga once again and secure a seventh UEFA Champions League title, and Coman knows that the club are building a team to do just that. The 26-year-old Frenchman opened up on the prospects of winning more trophies with the Bavarian giants and the departure of Robert Lewandowski to Barcelona. The new Bundesliga season has seen Frankfurt president Peter Fischer take a cheeky swipe at Bayern and their new signing, Sadio Mané.

The latter has had a great start, and Matthijs de Ligt may not get a place in the XI so easily. Alphonso Davies will obviously get a mention because he was easily a top-three player on the pitch today. The security he offers Bayern at the back is invaluable. This is one of the biggest storylines of this season early on, and I’m lovin’ it. Bayern managed to keep a clean sheet (!!!) which deserves its own celebratory article, but for now, a place in the match observations will have to do. It feels good to have such tight competition in the midfield at last. Sabitzer is having a remontada, and it is happening at the perfect time. The Wolfsburg defenders simply had no answer, and Musiala dominated once again. The players formed triangles and conducted small, well-concerted presses that isolated Wolfsburg players and forced turnovers. There was a lot of attacking intent as the team pushed Bayern into their own half for the first 15 minutes. Bayern players switched to cruise control, and while still dominating, let Wolfsburg sit back while they passed the ball around probing for breakthroughs. But I suppose the win is what matters in the end, and the clean sheet is certainly the icing on the cake.

"With all due respect Bayern are in a different class," Wolfsburg's Maximilian Arnold said. We needed some time but got going and maybe we could have scored one or two more goals." The Bavarians had crushed Eintracht Frankfurt 6-1 in their Bundesliga opener last week.

The situation went on and on, and it was a clear offside on Richarlison. He is in line of the shot. According to a report by Spanish publication Mundo Deportivo, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is a top target for Chelsea in the ongoing transfer window. “It will continue as it has now,” said the 25-year-old on “Sky”. Kalajdžić was asked whether he would move to England. “Time will tell,” replied the visibly annoyed Kalajdžić, who of course would also like to have some clarity about his future. Bayern Munich, again, was able to dictate the pace of the game and control it, even against a deep-sitting opponent. According to Spanish journalist David Bernabeu Reverter, Barcelona will soon launch the offensive to sign Bernardo Silva before the ongoing transfer window shuts down. Musiala has just been fantastic and continues to show he NEEDS to be in the lineup. That will be something to monitor for the future, but for now, the attack is electric to watch. - Sebastiaan Bornauw got put through the ringer for Wolfsburg, but did well for himself. “And when can you pull hair on the football field? The formerLiverpoolman cost himself two goals because of that. Ultimately, Bayern Munich was just too creative and too good offensively for that to matter for too long. - Missing — at least early on — for Bayern Munich was the presence of a strong hold-up player atop the formation.
