Christoph Metzelder feels Bayern Munich lags Cutting Edge Players

Bayern Munich are widely considered to be one of the best clubs in the world as the German club has some of the most talented players from around the globe as well as also having a title winning coach who has lifted some of the most prestigious trophies in the world of football.

Despite having all of these impressive characteristics, according to the former German international Christoph Metzelder they still lack a cutting edge player that other teams do such as Real Madrid or Barcelona as those Spanish teams have Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

BAYERN ARE READY

Having already secured the Bundesliga title, some players of Bayern Munich and even the coach himself Pep Guardiola have stated that the league has now taken a lower level of importance and this was evident when Bayern Munich played against Augsburg and suffered a 0-1 defeat.

Pep Guardiola has defended his decision of fielding players which aren’t usually in his starting lineup as the former Barcelona coach announced that he is now taking into more consideration, the Champions League than anything else.

BAYERN HAVE EDGE

Bayern Munich go into the second leg of the Champions League match against Arsenal with a 2-0 lead on aggregate, but manager Pep Guardiola says that the German club cannot afford to get complacent just as they did last season.

Bayern Munich went into the second leg with a similar score at the same stage last season. They were almost knocked out of the competition after Arsenal produced a stunning comeback to win 2-0 at the Allianz arena. It was only due to away goals that Bayern Munich progressed and later went on to win the competition.

BAYERN ROMP ON

The German giants Bayern Munich continue their rampage in the Bundesliga by scoring 4 goals past Hannover 96 with Thomas Muller being named as the man of the match as he scored twice for his team.

Bayern Munich escaped the HDI Arena with a convincing victory but also saw their star man of the game sustaining an injury that will be leaving him out of action for his club’s upcoming match against Schalke 04.

NOT SELLING

The manager of Bayern Munich, Pep Guardiola, has made it clear that he has not planned to sell Mario Mandzukic next summer.

This is Mandzukic’s second season at Bayern Munich. His performance for the club has been good so far and he is a regular member of Guardiola’s starting XI. He has scored 25 goals in the 40 league appearance that he has made for the German giants in the last one and half years.

Bayern Munich eying Barca's Alexis Sanchez

Pep Guardiola, the Bayern Munich manager, might be set to make yet another raid on his former club Barcelona to get forward Alexis Sanchez during the January transfer window. The Chilean footballer has been in a stunning form this year after he took some time to settle in La Liga in Spain, but he could be on the way out of Barcelona with an increasing list of teams lining up to sign him during the transfer window.

MANDZUKIC ONE OF THE BEST

Bayern Munich striker Mario Mandzukic has managed to become one of the best strikers in the world since his move to Bayern Munich last summer. He has not only won the Bundesliga title, but he has also lifted the Champions league title as well.

BAYERN STUMBLE TO VICTORY

Bayern Munich appointed former Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola as the new manager at the helm. Guardiola admitted that he had a lot to live up to because the team had won the treble last season, whilst the online betting markets have made them favourites for any competitions they are eligible for.

They have started the season in impressive fashion by scoring a lot of goals, although they were defeated by arch rivals Borussia Dortmund in the opening cup match of the season. Bayern Munich recently stumbled to a 1-0 victory over Frankfurt in the league.

BAYERN CHASE LUIZ

Bayern Munich have been heavily linked with a move for Chelsea defender David Luiz in the last few weeks especially after the arrival of Pep Guardiola. The former Barcelona manager is known to be fan of the Brazilian and he is prepared to bring the former Benfica man to the Allianz Arena before the end of the transfer window.

Luiz was a £ 21 million signing for Chelsea only two years ago in 2011. However, it is believed that Bayern Munich are willing to pay in excess of £ 40 million for the 26-year-old, who has the ability to play in a variety of positions.

CAN BAYERN IMPROVE?

Looking back at last season, it almost looks as a Bayern Munich cannot improve on their season. However, midfielder Javi Martinez thinks that the arrival of Guardiola to the German club will make them even more stronger.
