I hate this.... Especially coming from Bayern fans which I already don't like very much. How the hell are you going to say you played bad and blame the fact that you didn't have Schweini? Because whenever somebody beats you that you were not expected to lose against its always you that played bad and never the other team that played well. Bayern played well but Mainz played better. Mainz played the footy that they played last year to perfection. The bayern defence was being pressured in their own area because the Mainz attackers were pressuring so much. Bayern attackers couldn't complete proper passes because the Mainz defenders were applying so much pressure which is exactly what Mainz did last year when we won 1-2 in the Allianz Arena. Yes sometimes bayern play shitty and and as a result they lose but this is not true for this game. Man up and admit that Mainz, in this game, was by far the better team.
Mainz played a very structured and well executed counter game. Bayern didn't create too many chances at all. But we still kinda deserved a draw in the last minute push and that Gomez's goal shouldn't be disallowed (the defender slipped himself). Oh well, maybe I'm just still sour.... Missing Schweini is a big issue, there was no link between in the midfield. Toni Kroos is a good playmaker, but not the best commander. Need to get back on track in Bundesliga - Auf geht's Bayern!
You didn't really deserve even half a point, Mainz was brilliant throughout the entire game. You only scored after free kicks which already says a lot. Sadly Bayern is the team with the least running performance in the Bundesliga (well, if I recall only Freiburg is worse) and if you're up against a team that pressures every player, this is the only logical outcome. That or being able to keep the possession without running which is something apparently only Schweini can do
Third as well, imo. He was caught flat-footed on the shot, which went just over his right shoulder. Definitely within parrying distance, and a save he makes routinely
Bad game from us And the reason for this poor game was pure arrogance They walked on the pitch and thought we play 90 minutes Shoot 2 goals and went home But now we have lost the leading in bundesliga Yeah ok maybe its because of schweinsteigers missing But this is no excuse We have to be able to compensate this next time iam sure it will work much better And for those people who critzied badstuber boateng gustavo or alaba And say that they are not good enough for us They should shut their dirty mouths If you are a real fan you don't do this to your players For 2 weeks everything was awesome great fantastic And now everything is s**t? Oh man I hate those people please search another club to "support"
I agree that FC Bayern desperately needs more talented midfielders....Alaba and Kroos just don't cut it. They are ok for a Berlin or a Hamburg but not Bayern. Please check out my blog article at Link: prosoccertactics.com/2011/11/28/3-goals-and-3-poin... that examines the match from a Bayern perspective
Bayern Munich.... Clean sheet streak going rampant on every team in front of us.... Then Napoli.... 3-0 up in 30 minutes. Bayern were pure gold. Then Inlers collision with Basti.... Final score 3-2.... We've conceded a goal in every game since. 2 wins 2 losses.
Its not so much that were missing Schweinsteiger.... Its more that we have absolutely nobody! To replace him.... In the CM box-to-box position Tymo is my first choice but nowhere near as good and holding on to the ball dribbling and initiating attacks. Gustavo isn't good enough period. And Alaba dosent belong anywhere near CDM!
Not trying to be a prick, but Bayern fans are usually really loud on this site, and have been especially this season so far, after an explosive start. I've read lots of bragging and cynical comments aimed at Dortmund. And look now, all of a sudden, it's kinda quite here....
Again, sorry if I'm being a bit nasty, but it's true
You have every right to say that. I thankfully did not watch this game. Or else I wouldve killed someone by accident. (I tend to toss objects around when watchin footy.)
We had an amazing run this season so far. Now with Basti gone the chemistry between defence and midfield has crumbled. To be very simplistic. We underestimated Mainz, and you can't do that not to any team. Especially in the Bundesliga
