That's not criticising Heynckes just saying that, at that level, the top teams/managers have their ups and downs.

Not uncommon on big clubs, isn’t it though?

Real Madrid, Man Utd…
They like to see themselves as a more demanding crowd, fans of humbler teams tend to see it as a shitty attitude.

I can't speak for any league outside the Prem but yes, fans of top teams like MU, Chelsea, etc, are more critical, but even they seem to accept that upsets aren't that unusual, so long as they don't suggest a deeper decline.

Reading the articles Symbols linked, they just seem to reflect an obsession with Pep: over-scrutinising his every move. Bayern came unstuck against a very good Real side last season. Not making excuses for it but it happens. Same with their loss this season to Wolfsburg. Yes, Pep's system leaves them vulnerable to certain kinds of opponents but 90% of the time he still gets a result.

Every fan wants their team to be the best they can be but reading some Bayern fans online, they talk as though each game is almost an inconvenience, to be won and gotten out the way in order for them to simply move onto the next victory. Fortunately for them that's usually how it goes (especially in the Bundesliga) but it does seem to mean that any rare but inevitable blips that occurs along the way get blown out of all proportion.

Anyway, Bayern fans might have to just accept Pep's eccentricities cos he may be there for some time:

my concern was not with insane fan demands but with the soufflé quality of pep's tactics. either they rise magnificently or they fall completely flat. bayern scores 6 goals or gets 4 scored-- no 1-0s.

what the articles showed for me is the vulnerability to counterattacks. two of those articles are pep's admission of that fact, in different years.

in 2014 pep returned with a new system that was meant to be more counter-proof. that has worked against easy teams when bayern dominates them *completely*

but when bayern doesn't achieve total domination the expressway to the goal becomes wide open. wide wide wide. hence the massacres. the zonal marking article linked actually mentions how under heynckes this vulnerability did not exist (that was at the end of the prior season though. pep has made changes since them).

i don't know why i feel like my thoughts here are being conflated with those of megalomaniac fans, but i don't want bayern to win all the time-- in fact i've preferred to follow other teams like poor dortmund this year because something like bayern vs. stuttgart is no contest at all.

my "defenestrate pep/draft heynckes" outburst was not about wanting them to win all the time--henynckes certainly didn't do that. it had more to do with heynckes transparency and apparent good sense, rejecting what appeared to me like unreliable and unpredictable experiments. but that was more about my cognitive limitations than about pep's actual tactics.

a few posts afterwards and with some reading i think i do understand pep better-- it's not an experiment, and his system is not inherently unreliable either. it's that the limits of bayern only show up under certain conditions-- rather than being a gradual slope it's like wile e. coyote running off a cliff. it's suddend and brutal. it makes you think something is amiss.

but now after some reading it's easy for me to understand-- the achilles heel is the lack of pace of the central defenders (dante, benatia, badstuber on the mend, a mature alonso in front of them) that leaves a chunnel in front of the goal when bayern can't overwhelm the oponent.

it's a chess problem-- and a really interesting one once it's detected. and it's hard to detect because there aren't many situations where these conditions appear-- it's not like a weekly issue with bayern. hence some commentator called the porto game "a black swan" (a term from economics)-- a strange unexpected catastrophic event. but it's not strange or unexpected once you understand it-- i'm sure it wasn't unexpected for lopetegui and he planned it that way. others will do that as well.

that central wormhole won't be fixed until at least javi martinez gets mended, badstuber recovers his full form, and maybe dante (who really seems like a pleasant person) gets replaced by someone quicker. in the meantime, that's the path for the knife.

hey, maybe bayern can purchase david luiz at discount. say what you want about him, at least he's quick, ha ha ha ha.

I understand what you're saying. I just think it happens so rarely that it isn't an issue. For me Pep isn't a 'safe' manager. He plays things at the edge. What's remarkable is that his teams aren't more vulnerable than they are.

They're not. At least not by me. I'm talking about fans I read on football sites who try to pass off critcisms of Pep's methods with what i increasingly think a thinly disguised dislike of him personally.

Completely get that. And it just comes down to preferences. I love that experimentalism but I can completely understand why other people don't. Remember my team is run by a manager for whom pragmatism is all, and i hate it. I'd far rather we lose a game with some style than to draw one by playing things safe.

I suppose, while for you that's a problem, for me it's just the price paid for what he does in other areas. At Barcelona there was always that sense that if a team could really get at their defence they had a real chance. It just seems like a quirk of his philosophy. Equally, people have worked out that if you back off against a Mourinho team, they don't really know how to cope. They're not especially comfortable taking the initiative. Although Mourinho's addressed that a bit it's still there.

Agree. And one of the things i love about watching these top managers, with very definite ideas, is the way other managers try to counter them. Even if they don't succeed, because they maybe just don't have the quality of players to do it, I still like seeing tactical victories, even if the result doesn't quite reflect them. Giving Sam at West Ham his due, he completely out-tactic'd Jose this season, even if, at the death, Chelsea grabbed a winner. Tactical superiority is one thing. Eden Hazard is another.

i have to clarify though-- i have stopped thinking that pep's schemes are "wild experimentations". i see that they're perfectly rational systems with some flaws. but just because they are difficult to understand and the flaws are hidden and burst only at critical points it doesn't follow that they are arbitrary-- i see that now. i didn't before.

=====

anyway, games about to start! tomorrow a good one lined up-- wolfsburg vs. gladbach.

...

eta - dortmund beat frankfurt 2-0 in a nice, balanced game--just a bit too many fouls maybe. reus mended, came off bench for a bit. bayern/berlin starts later.

* * *

and we have a 1-0 after all! bayern beats hertha berlin while testing a bunch of subs. game started with 9 germans! (historic, it seems).

there was almost a goal down "the dante chunnel" in the same vein as all the rest, but neuer saved (in the same vein as all his saves).

weiser is pretty great! he's merely 18 and bayern's goal was his creation, running/dribbling up the right, and a great cross, finished by schweinsteiger. and he's a defender! well, i'm footballed out now.

Everton totally deserved that win. What's frustrating is that this season has seen some of the worst highs and absolute lows in a long time for Everton. Performances like today's and the general Europa league campaign showed they can be great, yet they've thrown so many points away from stupid mistakes.

Meh well, hopefully they can build from it for next season then possibly, maybe, we'll see, build onto fighting for a champions league place or at least a cup win somewhere. Hmm, we'll see though.

Stones' header will have to rank as one of the best headers all season too.

less epic perhaps but wolfsburg/gladbach starts in 15'

wolfsburg is 2nd, gladbach is 4th, both beat bayern by 2 goals recently.

if wolfsburg doesn't win then bayern is already champion

Not sure if I'm right here but your while your performances in the Europa cup were good your league performances only really started to improve after you were ejected from it. Breaking into the CL next season will be incredibly difficult and the far greater likelihood is that you simply end up qualifying for the Europa again. And so the cycle will continue, for you and every other decent upper-mid table side.

Also, PFA team of the season announced.

 


How Coutinho made it in there is a total mystery.

Nah looking back on the results after Europa games they never did that bad. Well more at the back of it all they didn't. Earlier on they were just awful as you said (I wish I can forget that 2-0 loss to Hull *shudders*).

Coutinho had a coupla good games and scored a few screamers, other than that I can't see why he should be there either.

Just watching Barca/Getafe game now. It was 6-0 by the 47th minute, whilst it has slowed down I wouldn't be surprised if there's more. I can see a Suarez, Messi, Neymar Ballon D'Or final three already. It might be too controversial to happen though.

Watching Liverpool lose at the moment.

Weird how they've just collapsed in the last couple of months. Although even when they were doing OK, it still doesn't make sense to have Coutinho in that XI - especially given that was when when Fabregas was on fire.

I'd go something more like this:

Aguerro, Kane
Sanchez, Fabregas, Hazard
Matic
Azpilacuta, Terry, Clyne, Ivanovich
DeGea

Manager: Koeman



You might be onto something with a Messi, Suarez, Neymar Ballon D'or. Wandering if that's ever happened before: all three finalists coming from the same team. Although I reckon Hazard might be in with a shout, not to win it but maybe to get to the final three.

im disappointed we won't be able to watch bayern's best vs. barcelona in the next champions round.

lewandowski had a concussion and a broken jaw. rummenigge promises his return, but how do you play well w/ a fucking broken jaw and some kind of batman mask.

then robben had a calf injury and he's kaput for the year. yeah. damn.

To be fair he'd had 12 shots by that point. Frustration gets the better of people sometimes. And he is one guy who takes everything WAAAYYYY too serious.

Except when he's having fun

On one level I admire his honesty. I roll my eyes every time I hear other strikers say their goals are less important than their team's success. It is, but I don't believe any of them really think it. But Ronaldo takes that selfishness to such an extreme that it's impossible not to feel at least a bit put off by it. A shame because I really do have a massive amount of respect for him.
