Before. The only way a coach gets sacked is if he F things up. Ancelotti and Tuchel got the boot from Bayern Munich after poor performances.
So they F things up but they won the league. Okay

Apart from Bayern Munich which other teams did the so called top coaches go to excel at. It is just Bayern Munich that is the outright top team. Yes it's not easy to have such high standards as a team. It is on this high standards that coaches are expected to bring out the best.

The point is that the club is high standard but it takes high standard coaching to get the team clicking. I am just kicking against the idea that any Tom, Dick or Harry can work into Bayern Munich and perform in a stellar way.

That’s the point but my goodjoe would like to stress you on simple analogy.

A team in the last 25 years won 20 titles and do we say the coaches are very good tactically or the team has solid development programs.

It’s sure Kompany as Bayern coach has the bright chance to win Bundesliga irrespective of his tactical abilities

I doubt anybody mentioned Ethan Nwaneri here before his senior debut though.

TBH kid is so talented. He has a bit of Jamal Musiala in him. Driving runs, close control dribbling and those inch-perfect pass.
You forgot those Ordegarrd kinda shots

That is the misconception. Irrespective of his tactical abilities. So how come Bayern did not win the league last season and dominate it.

It takes a lot of tactical work to get a team of great players to excel. There is a lot of tactical factors like player tactical management, opposition reading etc.

What you guys are missing is that Bayern Munich is a club that have always gone for the best coaches they can pay their hands on. Even Nico Kovac was a very sound tactician.

That is why they could land the likes of Guardiola and Ancelotti. Tuchel is a household name too.

It is not that they nailed admin and pick any coach to boost his name.

Kompany got that role because of Guardiola's endorsement. Not because they were looking for any coach to fit into their well greased system.

They were trophyless last season.

That is enough to tell you that it is not a walk in the park.

Kog45 is right
That Bayern goes for the best coaches is still a testament to their excellent administration..
How many coaches have they had in the last 25years?
And how did they manage to win 20 titles in that period with different managers?

You of all people should know that it runs deeper than just the coach
But no, you must argue

Unfortunately until those dribbles result in consistent goals and assists, he might not be invited to the SE
Lookman and Simon are still ahead as far as the SE is concerned and both have goals and assists already this season

Maestro is back 😊





Kelechi Nwakali was arguably the standout performer as Barnsley were beaten 3-2 by Peterborough United in a Professional Development League fixture in South Yorkshire on Tuesday afternoon.

The former Arsenal midfielder has yet to make his senior debut for Barnsley since his return to England in the summer transfer window, with first team boss Darrell Clarke suggesting that he's not in tiptop condition having missed the whole of pre-season preparations.



Nwakali has been drafted into the development squad for a couple of games in a bid to step up his match fitness ahead of a potential debut for the first team.

The 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup Golden Ball winner was a cut above the rest during this afternoon's clash at Oakwell Showcase Pitch witnessed by allnigeriasoccer.com.

Peterborough United had a dream start to the game, opening the scoring through Joe Davies in the very first minute,
but Barnsley responded quickly as Josiah Dyer brought the game back to parity five minutes later.

In the fifteenth minute, Nwakali fired a powerful first-time effort from outside the box that sailed just above the crossbar after winning possession twenty yards from goal.

Three minutes later, he came close again to scoring his first goal in Barnsley colours but his brilliant freekick came off the underside of the bar and bounced away before the ball was cleared by the Posh defence.

The Nigeria international saw another shot from outside the box narrowly miss the target in the 39th minute.

Those misses would prove costly as Davies bagged his second of the afternoon at minute 42.

Nwakali, who took most of Barnsley's freekicks and corner kicks, was thwarted by Bilokapic right before halftime, as the Peterborough United goalkeeper tipped his curling freekick over the bar.

After Harley Mills doubled the advantage for the visitors in the 52nd minute, Nwakali won a penalty after he was fouled in the box but Theo Chapman could not convert from the spot in the 61st minute.

The former Golden Eaglets and Flying Eagles captain pulled one back in the 63rd minute when he collected the ball inside the box and fired a powerful shot past the goalkeeper.

Two minutes after his first goal for Barnsley, Nwakali made way for Callum West and it is believed that it was an injury-enforced substitution, as the midfielder was seen holding his hamstring as he walked off the pitch.

The 26-year-old is unlikely to make his senior debut for the Reds on Tuesday evening when they welcome Wycombe Wanderers to Oakwell in the League One.

Can't help but laugh at this statement. There was a time in the Champions League when Guardiola had a fallout with Bayern Munich players because they wanted to play a particular way on their own. I think that was against Real Madrid and they were flogged silly.

There is more to football than letting players play. It is not choosing.

Bayern lost the title to an unbeaten team in case you forgot a team that put everyone in Europe under a meat grinder

Bayern was knocked out of the champions league by a goal keeper error and a linesman error

Samu Omorodion reveal that before the Olympics, Nigeria called him about a potential call-up to the Super Eagles.

Parents are from Nigeria, but Omorodion has played for Spain at youth ranks, and having won gold with Spain, it looks more likely he will play for LaRoja.

Trophyless. If they were that outstanding and walking through, an unbeaten run of Leverkusen won't stop them. A goalkeeping error won't take them out.

I am not mocking Bayern in anyway but even explaining that it takes a lot of hard work to achieve what they have done successfully over the years.

Very unrealistic. Bayern lost many games and that is with a coach. Football has gone beyond that. It is very tactical and takes a lot of study to achieve success.
