Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

It is wrong, if you think that Bayern Munich has lost the opportunity. It's just the start of the season, they have a lot of games that are still going on. There are many opportunities for them to go up. I don't think any team wants to lose a game. Augsburg is not a benchmark for measuring the next game. They have experienced coaches, the mentality of the players is already tested. So let's see, the season will be long. There is also the next transfer season. They can take advantage of that if they are not good.

Bayern Munich can't be very happy at the moment truthfully. Because they are doing good only in the Champions League now. Things are going really bad for them in the Bundesliga. They lost nine points in their last four league games. Nagelsmann tried a different attacking line like Sane - Mane in the forward position against Augsburg. But they lost the game 1-0. We haven't seen Bayern Munich in this much trouble for a long period of time. As everyone said already, the permanent solution to their scoring problem is signing a complete forward as soon as possible.

Bayern Munich's performance is very poor right now. Bayern Munich's main goal was to perform well in the Champions League. And they managed to do it. But they are falling behind in the Bundesliga. They are 5 points behind Berlin at the top of the table. But if Bayern Munich can return to form then they can reduce this 5-point gap very quickly. But if the Munich team is out of the truck for a few more days, it will be difficult for them to win the title this season.

Bayern Munich's current form is surely matter of concern, but deficit of points is surely had no concern because we all know about and the rest of the season is also favoring as many big teams are going to face each other which is also having good impact on league ranking and points deficit this break is surely a good time for them to look their weakness in league and try to cover things with suitable solution.

Their main issue is the players are not able to convert their chances into goal and this need to be settled as right now Sadio Mané is having good quality but taking more time than expected into adjustment which is creating problems no doubt about this fact if they are fail to cover this then surely they can face consequences which can bring them down in league table, and they can face suffer lost of this title as well.

Yes, they can play very optimally in UCL matches, but on the other hand in the Bundesliga, they have thrown away points several times which makes them currently fall to 5th position. Whereas usually in past seasons, they have always been kings on the board and are unbeaten. Bayern should review their performance in the Bundesliga. If they just focus and play well in the UCL, maybe they won't get a single title later. Because after all the competition at UCL is very fierce and it is very difficult to become a champion. Many big clubs are waiting for him and will be an obstacle for Bayern.

Of course, I don't expect the team to be happy because right now I can not say they are in poor form and I can't equally say they are in good shape because they are dropping points in their league but they keep winning matches in the champions league. The problem with the Bayern Munich team is that they are playing more individual football this is not part of their game plan, these tactics worked when they had Lewandoski in the team right now they have Mane and they need to go back to the drawing board and work on their teamwork instead of looking for personal achievement that won't help the team. The solution to the problem of the Bayern Munich team lies within the hands of their coach, he should encourage the players to play as a team .

World cup is getting closer guys and Bayern had almost all the players into national team or even all of them so it's kinda normal for some players to stay low as we saw what happened with Reus and poor guy, he always had problems with injuries before tournaments. So even if Bayern is not in full power , they have plenty of time to get back on track but World Cup on winter never happened before ...just saying...is a big factor for all big teams who are having national players in their squad.

But if the Munich team is out of the truck for a few more days, it will be difficult for them to win the title this season.

Bayern's appearance is very different when playing in the Champions League with when they played in the Bundesliga. I don't know the real reason
why Bayern are so down in the Bundesliga, some say Bayern are too focused on trying to achieve positive results in the Champions League and
eventually make them play badly in the Bundesliga. Whatever the reason, Bayern must immediately bounce back, and must reduce the difference
in points with Union Berlin who are currently still in top position. Because if Bayern's points difference with Union Berlin continues to drift apart,
it's like you said Bayern will be increasingly difficult to win the Bundesliga trophy this season.

But for Bayern's opportunity to shift Union Berlin's position is still quite large, because the Bundesliga still has a long way to go. This means that
Bayern are still very open to chasing Union Berlin's points, after all I doubt that Union Berlin can be consistent until the end of the season.
That's why Bayern's next match against Leverkusen is so important, so there is no other choice but Bayern must win against Leverkusen.
Bayern should be able to beat Leverkusen, seeing Leverkusen's performance has also declined this season.

Every club has a season of their down time, and this season could be Bayern Munich down time, but however not until the season is finished. I do still believe at a point they will get up from their slumber, but literally they need to start getting things going in the right, hence it could be late for them and they might even find it very difficult and struggle to qualify for next season champions league game competition if they continue with this hands and keep going downwards in their league table.

Oh they have to get up from there struggle they have right now and the last weeks , because if the dont getting back on track as they normaly are,
and if they losing more and cant keep up with the others its just a matter of time when they will kick out there coach Nagelsmann.
But i guess that they will be coming back and they are still one of the favorites of the title and that they will be playing next season in the champions league.

Bayern Munich president has stated that they aren't intending to sack Nagelsmann after the recent poor results in the Bundesliga. I also think that it would be very meaningless because the main issue is obviously not his management. The problem is that they don't have a solid striker like Lewandowski anymore. This is the source of their being inadequate in terms of productivity. They can't go on with making their wingers play as forward players. For example Manchester City tried this in the past when they didn't have any striker and it affected their scoring performance quite much.
Like most people, I also think that Kane is the best candidate to be able to fill Lewandowski's place.

Well i don't think that the only reason why Bayern Munich had so many unsuccessful matches in the Bundesliga now is the fact alone that Lewandowski isn't playing for them anymore. I mean if you watched the match of Bayern Munich vs Barca in the Champions Leauge then it is obvious, that Lewandowski also misses big chances to score. This also happened in the seasons when he played for Bayern.
I think a big factor is still that Bayern is just extremely unlucky at the moment. They should never lose a match like the one against Augsburg for example. Even if Bayern was not able to score they should have achieve at least a draw there, but they received a goal that was completely unlucky again. Of course it is also not good that Mane seems to be not in shape at the moment.

It is safe to say that Bayern Munich are facing the same problem Manchester City was facing last season, which is a lack of a lethal striker to lead the team forward. Although Bayern Munich have bought Sadio Mane in this transfer window, I do not see him as a lethal striker but more as a secondary striker.

There was a big mistake on their part in selling Robert Lewandowski, as I think he could have been useful to them for at least three more seasons with his amazing goal-scoring abilities. Currently, one of the most significant things they need to do in order to win more games in the Bundesliga is to find a striker who can play the game well and quickly.

I'm sure Bayern Munich is very easy to do again to score Champions League champions, because they have quality players of course wins are easy to achieve, but at the moment they are not enthusiastic and prefer to play casually, and at the end of the game Bayern Munich will bounce back and make many opponents scared.

Bayern Munich's poor performance was also influenced by Mane's declining performance and not finding his rhythm. Mane seems to need a long adaptation when it comes to playing in the Dutch league.
Due to poor performances, Bayern Munich had to settle for fifth place with 12 points this season and Union Berlin in first place with 17 points. Need 5 more points to reach the top, Bayern Munich must work hard and must score as many goals as possible.

New position for Sadio Mane in Bayern Munich as central forward make him can't give top level performance with Bayern Munich and he still adapting with position as central forward. I think will different if Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann give him left winger position because his position still with Liverpool. Beside problem with attacking line I think Bayern Munich still bad performance in defensive area because have been conceded 6 goals of 7 games.

Bayern Munich left 7 points from top standing position awhile Union Berlin have 17 points and become the only one Bundesliga team still unbeaten until 7 games, absolutely Bayern Munich still have chance get first standing position but need consistent and back recovery to winning record before losing points again and have different points with Union Berlin.

^ I have always thought that Sadio Mane is a natural left-winger. Furthermore, I believe it was a mistake to try to convert him to a center forward right after he had moved. If Bayern Munich doesn't adapt to a different strategy, then I believe that they will not be able to reach their goal. In the current rankings, they are ranked 5th, and things do not appear to be shaping up well for them.

One of the major reasons why people expect better results from them is the fact that they have consistently won the Bundesliga title for the last 10 years. As a result, it is obvious that there is something wrong with the team if they are not in the top 3 after so many games. I am hearing that the coach might be sacked, and that might turn out to be a wise decision.

Yes, Bayern Munich fans are not happy about the results they got from the team in this season that is making them to doubt if the team will go far in this season. I think, their coach need to do something fast to improve the team because they still have more opportunity ahead which they can still demonstrate to make their fans happy again. No doubt, Bayern Munich coach will definitely solve this problem the team is facing in this season because he is fully ready to bring in new talented strikers that can help the team to achieve many goals in any competition.

[YuginKadoya]

At the moment, no team's performance is stable except for Union Berlin. Leverkusen and Leipzig are worst off. Leverkusen are now closest to the relegation zone. On the other hand, Leipzig managed to score only 8 points with 7 mats. As all the teams have made internal changes to their squads, the performances of all the teams have been somewhat erratic. Hopefully we will see stable performances from the teams in a few days.
Union Berlin, Dortmund and Freiburg will battle it out with Bayern Munich for the title this season. It seems that the road to the title this season will not be easy for Bayern Munich.

Yes, I agree, but 1 thing is for certain we can not assume this will be permanent because I witnessed this in the 2nd division last season, SSV Jahn Regensburg is doing fine during matchday 1 up to matchday 9 but it all shifted when Werder Bremen and Schalke have put a pace on their play to catch up to the standings, I think it could be the same in the 1st division that those teams were just waiting for a good opportunity to strike back, but apparently right now they are struggling to perform well,

That's mainly because they are lacking a striker like Lewandowski and they were so used to him finishing those positions. He scored 40 goals a year just on bundesliga, add in UCL and the cup games as well, that dude had 50 goals a year every year for them, and that meant that it would be easy for them to score, get it to a point and then give it to lewandowski so he could score.

Nowadays, they do not have him, and they still come to a point but then they are lacking that finishing, nobody in the team has it as good as Lewa did and that is the problem. They will adjust and start scoring too, but it will take time to get that responsibility distributed to everyone.

I don't really think they need Robert Lewandowski anymore and in actuality, Lewandowski needs Bayern Munich right now Robert Lewandowski only got 8 goals for FC Barcelona which is not the same performance last season with Bayern Munich, that game on the UEFA Championship League Bayern Munich have won against Barcelona not because of the striker but because of the team, and they really know how Lewandowski is playing and Lewandowski is not used in the team play of Barcelona, while Barcelona still doesn't know how they will make a great game for Lewandowski,

Agreed, it's very painful to see that how bad the performance from bayern in last matches of bundesliga. I meant if it's not going straight with the performance of bayern in the champion league. This may become a big question for all of fans. If bayern will be getting another draw or lose again and the chance to be the top 4 is become even very small than before. Bayern needs to be qualified for the next champion league if that was failed in this season.

[hahay]

Moreover, rumors have circulated about Nagelsmann who will be sacked and a strong candidate to replace him is Tuchel, if this issue becomes a reality then of course Bayern Munich will come back strong and dominate the Bundesliga again. Also, if it is true that Tuchel will replace Nagelsmann immediately, then Bayern Munich will be a team that is a strong candidate to win the title also in the Champions League. But if you say Bayern Munich's performance because of Mane it is a mistake, because Mane is a new player here and Mane is not to blame for Bayern Munich's decline.

No doubt right now Bayern Munich is facing one of the worst time with their performance even their players are creating chances, but sadly they are fail to convert them into goals which is surely an issue right now specially with Sadio Mané which is a quality player but sadly right now not adjusting in their system but still have good back from coach Nagelsmann and management which feel he can do much better in coming weeks but right now another rumor is talk of the town with Thomas Tuchel who is now sacked by Chelsea is going to be favorite for this job even right now Bayern Munich management is not feeling, but rumors can do their work and things could be changed after international break.

After this break until start of the world cup we have tough time if Nagelsmann able to change current situation into positive then surely it's not problem otherwise most chances he is going to lose his job for Thomas Tuchel.

Anyway Bayern Munich by having good management then of course they will always try to continue to dominate the Bundesliga, unless they do not have a healthy management then they are difficult to become the strongest team. So, it's not something difficult for them to recruit a new coach to replace Nagelsmann and it's just, maybe they still have faith in Nagelsmann until they still give time for Nagelsmann to change this situation. But if Nagelsmann fails in that time frame then of course, Bayern Munich will get a new coach maybe before entering the second half of the season.

It's not just about having quality players at Bayern Munich, it's also about more games yet to be played this season so Bayern Munich in general still has a chance to catch up with some of the teams that are already top of the table at this point. After all, the number of points Bayern Munich has with several teams in the standings at this time is not so much that it is still easier for Bayern Munich to catch up.

Bayern Munich wi catch up and also overtake the clubs that are ahead of them in the table. It is not difficult. Why I said so is that those clubs are not much threat, they can win Bayern today and get bitten by another club tomorrow. If Bayer had had an opponent club who can go 11 matches unbeaten, they would have found it difficult to return to top. But as it stands now, in the next 5 matches, everything will re-stablize for Bayern Munich.

[bct_ail]

A few posts above there was a discussion about whether Robert Lewandowski departure had an impact. Of course, every departure has an impact for a team. That is also the case at work. When someone leaves the job we do not find a 1:1 replacement. But I do not think that is the question or the problem here. The problem is in the defence. They lost because goals were scored against them. So the focus from Bayern should be the defence.

To be sure, Bayern Munich will find it difficult to catch up with the points left behind. moreover, currently the difference in points between Union Berlin and Bayern Munich is quite a lot. Union Berlin has 17 points and Munich only has 12 points, it seems to catch up to five points difference is not easy at all. what's more, Union Berlin currently has an unbeaten record in seven matches in the Bundesliga, this makes the Bundesliga more competitive.

As for Bayern Munich, we have no doubt that Bayern Munich can return to their best form. however at the moment, they are on a downward trend and it is certain that Nagelsmann and his squad will need time to return to the highest rankings in the Bundesliga.

I agree that Lewandowski's departure has had an impact (whether it's bad or not). But I don't agree that they only have defensive problems, because when their defense is good but they can't score it means they won't win the game. I said they played well, it was just that they had problems with finishing, that's what I saw. If they had a good finish, when they conceded one goal and created two, it would have been a win for them.
