Bayern, change or ... degrade?

Winning, losing is a normal thing in football, especially when Bayern "only" lost close on the powerful opponent Dortmund, after Bayern had a great first half.

Bayern, change or ... degrade?
Probably, there should never be a problem with such a loss. On the other hand, fans of Bayern may have to ask themselves: once reached the level of not be better in the first half, Bayern end ... still lose. So what are the hopes of coaching Niko Kovac if they are not going to be able to repeat such great matches from now on?

Bayern overwhelmed, conquering the "yellow wall" at the famous ball field is the most noisy Bundesliga. They left the field in the lead position at the break. When Dortmund equalized then it was a penalty. And Bayern led the way again and remained dominant until the match was over 20 minutes. But in the end Dortmund won, as everyone knows. In principle, that first is the loss of the keeper.

Lack of tactical, or wrong tactical adjustment is not appropriate for the specific situation on the field.

But tactics must go hand in hand with the human element. Now, who remembers Franck Ribery? At the age of 35, the French general was still playing for 90 minutes.

Mats Hummels, Jerome Boateng, Thomas Mueller are all old faces, old, still in the lead team in Bayern. They could not keep up the pace of the game. But in Bayern's play, the ball is still in place of Ribery - the player with the most ball from the midfield upward, for both teams. Although Bayern won, this is also a sign ... lack of positive then. If not too concerned about the Bundesliga, an average fan might wonder: Is Ribery still playing at the top?

It would be a question worth remembering for Mueller, though of course he was not so good as the old man. The problem is that Mueller is very playful and that is never new. Bayern is deteriorating in a holistic view, not just about individuality. Roberto Lewandowski scored both goals, but it was a Lewandowski who was no longer like himself. Looking at the human element, Bayern currently has almost no new features. Maybe this is the detail that dominates the gameplay. Coach Kovac certainly can not hope to make any revolution. Arjen Robben was absent from the match. But if Robben is there, the story is ... nothing else! Definitely will have to change, if Bayern want to avoid a season ... fall.
