Bayern Munich did not score easy goals against Bochum; everyone believed Bayern Munich destroyed Bochum in this game because of how Barcelona shamed them in the Champions League; we expected Bayern Munich to win the game, but not by so many goals; Bochum did not score a single goal against Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich's defense appears to be good in this game, perhaps because Bochum is a weak team and this is a Bundesliga game, which cannot be compared to the Champions League. On the other hand, Kim Min-jae, who made numerous mistakes in the Champions League, prevented Bayern Munich from conceding a goal against Bochum, and they won the match with a clean sheet.

Kompany's strategies seem to be more effective in the Bundesliga, but in the Champions League, they were unable to compete against opponents from other leagues. In my opinion, we shouldn't be expecting much from Kompany on his Champions League debut since they also failed to beat Aston Villa, at least, they may have a chance to win the Bundesliga, but I doubt they will proceed to the next round in the Champions League with the new format.

Bayern beat Bochum as expected, it would be strange if they lost a point with such an opponent. And the fact that Bayern lost to Barcelona, ​​so their game with Real showed that Barcelona is probably in such a form now that it is ready to beat anyone...

In the Bundesliga, Bayern will try to maintain the lead, I think that they have everything they need for this, Leipzig is still quite close, but I have repeatedly said that this team is very unstable and this can all end as soon as they have another slump. Bayer seems to be unable to defend their title, losing points in the Bundesliga has become a constant phenomenon for them. Maybe I'm wrong about Leipzig, but I think that they will not hold out long with Bayern.

Many people are exaggerating the criticism they are making against Bayern and are not taking into account that this is still the first season of the new coach and that Bayern's management is more focused on the team's results in the Bundesliga. We can see that 2 seasons ago when Nagelsmann was doing very well in the European Champions League but was not doing well in the Bundesliga, Bayern's management fired Nagelsmann and hired Tuchel and now Bayern is doing well in the Bundesliga.



In 7 games, Bayern have not yet lost in any Bundesliga game and that is a very good performance. The most important thing is that this season we manage to win the Bundesliga and then the new coach will be able to improve the squad in time so that he can achieve better results in European competitions.
I think the criticism leveled at Bayern Munich is understandable. Regardless of the scale of their priorities, many still see them as the favorite team in the Champions League every season. The high expectations of the fans have become a major challenge for Kompany in his first season, and now we understand why the three managers previously targeted declined to succeed Thomas Tuchel.
It must be admitted that stabilizing performance in every competition is not an easy job, Kompany needs a lot of time to lead his team to perform according to expectations, especially in the Champions League. In the Bundesliga, the hope of winning the trophy again is very open by appearing undefeated, and that will be the main stage for Kompany to prove and gain the trust of the fans.
Bochum it seems will to be the outlet for Kane and his colleagues, the additional three points further confirm their position at the top of the standings.

Bayern's management is not concerned with the European Champions League at the moment, they are concerned with winning the Bundesliga because everyone knows that the European Champions League has many complexities, see that there are many great teams that have not won the European Champions League for a long time but are winning the local league. If the Bayern coach was doing well in the European Champions League but was doing poorly in the Bundesliga, he would be fired immediately. and the Bayern coach knows this well.

In 7 games, Bayern have not yet lost in any Bundesliga game and that is a very good performance. The most important thing is that this season we manage to win the Bundesliga and then the new coach will be able to improve the squad in time so that he can achieve better results in European competitions.
They compete with Leipzig for the number of draws, losses, and wins. But look at all the clubs, Bayern Munich is the one that dominates the number of goals, 24 GF. Is it possible that Bayern Munich will be able to go undefeated this season in the Bundesliga like Leverkusen's achievement last season?

But what's more interesting is that the top scorer in the Bundesliga is Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt who has scored 9 goals so far. Whereas Eintracht Frankfurt's number of goals so far is 15, more than half of them are goals from Marmoush.

1 - It is still possible that Bayern will finish the season without a single defeat. Bayern's next 3 Bundesliga games could see them achieve 3 wins. But then they will have to play against Dortmund, who despite being inconsistent can still cause problems.

2 - Regarding the Bundesliga's top scorer, it is now as follows:



Kane is now on top. But I must congratulate Omar Marmoush. He is helping Eintracht Frankfurt a lot.

So invariably you're suggesting that the management of Bayern Munich is head-on focus towards recovering their glory in the German bundlesliga before all else to the team's performance to competition across Europe? Because from what is obvious, a lot of fans beaming their laser first of towards the results they've been getting in the uefa champions league reasons been that when it comes to the champions league Bayern Munich has been a strong hold in forefront of the competition and we all expects that they do better in every season at least. The 4:1 defeat they had against Barcelona was a huge blow and we don't expect people not to criticise such awful result from an elite team as Bayern Munich in the European competition irrespective of where the priority of their management lies.

In the Champions League any team can beat another, see that Dortmund, even though they were at their worst in the Bundesliga, managed to get far in the Champions League last season.

Why do I feel like Bayern Munich unleashed the frustration they got off loosing to Barcelona on bochum in this game they played earlier. We knew Bayern was going to win but I don't think we expected it in this manner and I must command it was not just a good game and victory for Bayern but it was an entertaining game aswell which I see gave Bayern a recovery feel, I think with this I can say for sure, komopanys strategy fits in the bundesliga mostly, a d not as much with the champions League because the productivity is very different and the results aren't anything close to each other.

Borussia Dortmund continues to decline and now they have to feel their 3rd defeat in the Bundesliga this season, it makes their position have to move away and now they are in 7th place in the Bundesliga.
Augsburg who had to feel conceding early turned out to be able to maintain their mentality and they were even able to turn things around to 2-1 which was the final score that occurred in this match. Borussia Dormund who tried to create another goal could not do much and even they had to feel the loss because one of their players had to receive a red card at the end of the match.
You are right, they have to evaluate their declining performance, if not then maybe they will not be able to be in the best position at the end of the season.
Dortmund were expected to recover from their last defeat but instead they seem stuck in a situation that cannot be recovered. It is still early days but with Dortmund condition very worrying, losing so many points in the Bundesliga, the club is in a difficult transition process. Coach Nuri Şahin has not been able to fully fulfill what the club needs to face the tough competition. I hope from defeats to Augsburg he learns a lot and evaluates everything before it is too late.
Dortmund's appearance in the Bundesliga looks unstable and doubtful, and sometimes looks like he lacks concentration, that's what Augsburg took advantage of in that match, they were able to find a gap that made Dortmund unable to retaliate against their opponents more, on the other hand, Augsburg was able to penetrate Dortmund's defense and create a 2:1 advantage and until the match ended Dortmund also could not increase their score, initially I thought Dortmund would win this match because they were able to create a quick goal in 4 minutes of the match but it turned out they were only able to create 1 goal and that was not enough to win.

A loss to a big team like Barcelona can be a motivation for players and coaches in the next match, The big victory over Bochum with a score of 5-0 shows that Bayern is able to rise strongly and shows that if they are still the rulers in the Bundesliga, I think with this Victory of course has again improved their mentality and made us not to underestimate them in the Bundesliga,  Regarding Kompany tactics, of course you are right that a successful strategy in the Bundesliga may still need a little improvement when they play in the Champions League, because however the games in the Champions League have a different dynamic compared to the domestic league with more diverse opponents and more complex tactics, so at the moment Kompany should be able to find a balance between the dominant style of play in the domestic league and flexibility which needed in the Champions League later.

After Bayern Munich suffered a heavy defeat at Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, I knew their league opponents of the weekend Bochum is going to get thrashed when they host the league German Bundesliga leaders. Unsurprisingly, Bayern Munich dominated the game and convincingly defeated Bochum to claim all three points. RB Leipzig is Bayern Munich's closest competitors this season as they've also been able to gather all the same amount of points with Bayern Munich but in my own opinion, I don't think RB Leipzig will be consistent enough to be this close against Bayern Munich till the end of the season.
I was also of the mind that Bayern will heavily punish Bochum because of their embarrassing loss to Barcelona but for me you can't know who is a strong team if you keep giving them weaker teams to play. See how they were locked when they played Barca, that's how to know if Bayern is strong this season and though they defeated Bochum, what's the assurance that they will be able to maintain this form when they meet a bigger, stronger team?
 It's not enough to pour goals and be able to break through your opponents defense, what about your own, because when you have been able to silence their attackers and some of the midfielders, Bayern Munich's defense is no longer solid and for me any team that can be aware of this can definitely defeat them.

3 loses from 8 matches i think this is not good and i have been notice all of the current loses from Dortmund is came from away matches so it is showed that Dortmund had a problem while playing at their opponents home ground and certainly Dortmund performance is not really good this season even i started to thinking that Dortmund is much better under Edin Terzic rather than under Nuri Sahin this because when Edin Terzic was still in charge Dortmund can able to being an strong contender for Bayern Munich for race title but now their position is out from top 4 and i know the league still have 26 matches remaining but i think if this situation still not change then probably Dortmund will not finish at the top 4

Indeed, Dortmund's strength is their attack when they have scored 14 goals in the domestic league, an average of 2 goals/match. But the loss of Hummels at centec-back leaves Dortmund's defense without a leader. With their current inconsistent form and having to play away from home, Dortmund have yet to win any away matches this season in the Bundesliga. The latest defeat also adds to the pressure on coach Nuri Sahin, who is in his first season in charge, after he was heavily criticized for his team squandering a 2-0 lead against Madrid and conceding five goals in the second half. Dortmund is currently 7th in the rankings with 13 points after 8 rounds and is facing the risk of the group above increasing the gap. If they continue to play poorly, this season could be a disastrous one for them as they fall out of the top 4.

This is how a big club is supposed to react to such an humiliating defeat by a club like Barcelona, I think tactically Kompany got it wrong against Barcelona and was actually after trying to correct it in this game and it actually worked, this is not that a  tactics is different for competitions like Bundesliga and champions league,
In addition, Barcelona's current performance is very good and consistent. They even slaughtered Real Madrid in El Clasico. So, indeed, Bayern Munich's opponent in the UCL yesterday deserved to be the winner. and in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich was able to optimize the chances to conquer their opponent, without being burdened by the results of the UCL, so they could optimally compete in the Bundesliga.

At least now they are back at the top of the Bundesliga standings, unbeaten, and can maintain it until the end of the season, that would be much better.
Yea yea yea, this is truly the mark of a top quality team, with this kind of performance, I believe that the midweek match against Barcelona which they lost was just one of those bad days at the office and it's a good thing that they doesn't let it to affect them that much which to me, is truly one of the mark of a champion.
Because I know very well that their are so many good teams out there that a mid week performance that got them trashed like the way they were trashed would have reduced their confidence to the lowest minimum and they wouldn't have won convincingly yesterday the way they did.

Then as for Barcelona I think that they are actually in the form of their lives right now because for them to beat a team as good as Bayern Munich and real madrid convincingly the way they did, it shows that hansi flick is actually not messing around with this Barcelona side, he is gradually taking barca back to the top of European football, because that's where they belong with other top teams.

Leipzig's win over Freiburg took them to the top of the standings, at least until Bayern Munich play this week. Talking about Leipzig, they are one of the clubs that have shown promise this season, but they are still not very good at the front line which is still not very productive in my opinion, even though their defense can work well, but if the front line cannot create goals it is also not a good thing. Now they have to quickly solve the problems they still have in the front line, because the longer the competition, the heavier the pressure they will face. They have to be able to handle it and also want to continue to be on the path of competition to win the title.
Obviously when the stronger teams don't play, the weaker teams will have an advantage and are making their way up the standings. They will lose points as well as drop from their position when they face Bayern Munich.Such teams can never win the title because there are Bayern Munich, Barcelona and other teams who are playing for the title as well. Bayern Munich who are a good team lost by 3 goals against Barcelona.  So Freiburg cannot play for the title against any of these teams.  Because he is in a weak and bad position.Freiburg lost 3 goals against RB Leipzig and would go on to win the title.  It's better to think about it than to get it because strong teams won't allow it.

With the strength that Munich has, they should be able to win this match by far more than that, because Bochum itself is not a tough opponent at this time, they are currently slumping with defeat without a win this season, Bochum itself is a team that is not yet solid with the quality that Munich has, they should be able to walk more to establish themselves in the top competition, in my opinion in this victory there is nothing that we can be proud of from Kompany because it is clear that the individual abilities shown are not good in Kompany's strategy.

I personally do not belittle Kompany but in this match I think the quality of the players speaks for itself, not the coach's strategy factor, Kompany is still lacking in explaining what he wants for his game and in my opinion they won because of the hard work of the players.

Yes Bayern Munich big win over Bochum looks like they were letting out frustration from losing to Barcelona. We knew Bayern would win but not by so much. Their performance was great making for exciting match. This win shows Julian Nagelsmann smart tactics work well in Bundesliga. However he has not had same success in Champions League. This difference makes us wonder if Nagelsmann can adjust his strategy. Can Nagelsmann change his approach to succeed in both Bundesliga and Champions League? His tactics seem perfect for German football but not for European competitions.

I know against some big European clubs a Little twerk is advice but sometimes I think it not needed just stick to your plan and inform players to increase tempo and nothing more.

The win gives them a lead at the table with Leipzig looking everyday as a tittle contender, gradually it is looking like the race will be a two horse race like we use to have in the past. Bayern Munich and Leipzig have open a five point gap to the champions bayer Leverkusen and with the way they play this weekend i don’t think they will actually be a contender like that this season. As for Dortmund I don’t see them as a contender to this tittle with their inconsistent performances

Bayern Munich paid the price of the defeat to Barcelona to their out of form rival Bochum.Bayern Munich played a dominant game against their opponent and managed to defeat their opponent with 5 goals. They are now in a fierce rivalry with Leipzig.Both teams continue their way with 6 wins and 2 draws.

Beating Bochum 5 goals to nil is not suppose to be something we applaud Bayern Munich, fine they poured out their frustration on an innocent team that's managing to get at least a win this season doesn't mean they can erase the shame Barcelona gave them and I believe Kompany should be blamed for that loss against Barcelona. But these guys (Bayern Munich) are still good to take on any team in the Bundesliga and they will do anything to get back their pride which is the title. Munich need to focus more in the league than the champions league because I don't think they can get it but if both titles comes their way is a win-win for them.
From how it stands on the table I some how feel the both team can repeat what happened some seasons ago when Leipzig was challenging Bayern Munich for the title and they were this close until the game Robben killed the dream of Leipzig but this time the both teams (Bayern and Leipzig) have more than 2 teams who are hunting for the title so let's see if it will be possible for Bayern Munich and Leipzig to be the only teams to go for the title this season.

RB Leipzig is Bayern Munich's closest competitors this season as they've also been able to gather all the same amount of points with Bayern Munich but in my own opinion, I don't think RB Leipzig will be consistent enough to be this close against Bayern Munich till the end of the season.
Bochum is indeed a less strong opponent because they are the weakest team in the Bundesliga where they have not managed to win this season. It is no wonder that Bayern Munich beat them with a big score with Bayern Munich taking out their anger on Bochum after they lost to Barcelona.

In the Bundesliga this season, it seems that there are no surprises like last season, because until week 8 of this season Bayern Munich is still quite safe leading the standings. I want to see a fiercer competition like last season. Leverkusen is 5 points behind Bayern Munich and I hope Xabi Alonso can bring Leverkusen to win in a row again so they can compete with Bayern Munich.

On the other hand, Leipzig is still on their best track because they both collect the same points as Bayern Munich. I hope they can also improve the quality of their game because to shift Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga requires extraordinary hard work like Leverkusen did in the previous season.

Eintracht Frankfurt, on the other hand, failed to capitalize on their lead against Union Berlin. In the 14th minute Ekitike's goal gave Frankfurt the lead in the first half, but in the 66th minute Hollerbach's goal forced them to draw 1-1.Union Berlin is one of the teams doing well this season.
Bayern went on a rampage in today's match and indeed this was like venting the frustration of a big defeat against Barcelona in the Champions League earlier.

They are aware that when they lost before they had some unavoidable things such as a sometimes shaky defense and Kompany in this match did a good job by changing the scheme a little especially when in attack they were not too all out but right on target.

0-5 was the end of this match with Bayern's unstoppable dominance that made it difficult for Bochum to develop their schemes other than defending. With this result they regained the standings from Leipzig who previously won convincingly over Freiburg and of course this is a very good thing for Bayern because after all the defeat in other competitions it must make mentally a little disturbed and this big win will make them more confident.

While we have high hopes to see Dortmund bounce back to victory after the defeat in the UCL, but instead we see another bad result they got in the league, even though Dortmund was able to take a quick lead in that match but their concentration began to deteriorate, especially if we can see if their defense is no ready when facing a quick Augsburg counter attack,   the loss from Augsburg was obviously very disappointing and I think the Dortmund management is starting to have to evaluate the current performance of Nuri Sahin, who looks unable to bring Dortmund to the better, I think the red card is not the cause of their defeat because indeed from the beginning of the match, Dortmund defense was very bad and easily exploited by Augsburg throughout the match.
I think the team is going through some psychological trauma due to their loss in the champions league against Real Madrid during the week and have not been able to get over it and at such it is expected of the Borussia Dortmund coach to try and motivate his players and make them understand that the game against Madrid has gone and they have to face the current realities by ensuring that stay focused and get back to winning streak as there is so much to play for both in the German league and in the champions league as well.
That's right, it's not easy to bounce back after being slaughtered in the previous match, and Dortmund current defense line does look quite porous. Nuri Sahin needs to work harder to evaluate his team shortcomings, and it seems that the 4-2-3-1 formation that he often applies in many matches looks less effective. The pressure will continue to increase if Dortmund continues to lose points, however, the management will demand Nuri Sahin to be able to lead his team to finish in the Champions League zone at the end of the season.
Besides, I think Dortmund journey in the Champions League this season will not be as lucky as last season, so Nuri Sahin must be clever enough in determining the priority scale of his current team.
