Well, those past two games have been a bit like the first half of the season.
Pretty bad in front of goal and given away some stupid/easy goals on defense.

BTW: Hasenhüttl's just an a***** and his style of football's just terrible.
They're going to foul like crazy playing against the ball and on offense, everyone seems to have that diving game down. Especially Werner, Sabitzer and Demme.
And Hasenhüttl himself acts like a complete maniac on the sidelines, behaving like a crazy berzerker. If guys like Klopp or Schmidt(Leverkusen) would ever act this way they'd probably be sitting in the stands for a month or so...

Dortmund signing Dahoud for 10 mil. seems like highway robbery.

Adler is almost as bad as Lössl. Slapstick keeper.

Leno gifting us two goals. Not a bad start

Classic HSV performance in Munich. Should just forfeit the next time.


Could be 8-0 or 9-0 already

Hamburg actually looked good in the last couple of games, but that's embarrassing stuff. How can you lose all confidence like that? They could play the players' kids and it couldn't be worse.

Ancelotti probably wanted to prove it doesnt need Pep Guardiola tactical masterclass to beat HSV by half a dozen.

What happened to HSV today?

I thought this Ancelotti Bayern team wasn't as good.

Very nice win for us. Hope we can keep it up next week in Hamburg, especially because I'll be there

We should avoid defining HSV as a measure whether a team is good or not, though.

At this point 15 teams in the league are better than Hamburg despite them being #2 in net money spend in the transfer windows behind only Leipzig.
It will be interesting to see how much longer Kühne continues to watch Hamburg officials draining his money down the toilet.

I know, I know. Just taking a friendly dig at our pal No_20 who has been hyper-critical of Bayern after Pep's departure. ;)

Well, we got quite lucky today.
Stindl's goal should've never counted and overall it was actually a 0-0 game with neither team doing anything good in front of goal.

Though, I'll take it, especially with how the season went for us so far.

Carlo Ancelotti tactical masterclass visible today again.

Yeah, we didn't play well and you can really see those games are taking a toll.

Though, it was great to see Mavraj commiting that stupid mistake for the first penalty.
After their brilliant away game in Munich he was interviewed and talked about running over Gladbach... :lol:

Or Schalke just giving away the game.
Though, Weinzierl doesn't help given that he doesn't seem to understand what rotating playres in and out of the lineup could do physically for the team.

No they arent. Schalke got a point in this fixture just a few weeks ago.

Just wait till Bayern plays a top team in the CL.
Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Kevin Garnett, Toni Kroos, Pep Guardiola, Ernst Happel, Joachim Löw.

Well it cant get worse against top teams in CL than it was under Guardiola right?

They are far from unstoppable tbh. The main horses Robben and Ribery have gotten old.
