that i agree with. spending ridiculous money has to pay off at some point, so naturally they will have the most top clubs in the CL due to spending power alone. PSG seems to be THE team to beat after Reals decline to me tho, they have already a great squad and Frances talent pool is only getting better. being able to buy literally anyone in the world also helps them
I think PSG as well, especially considering their lack of competition domestically, which will help them prioritise the CL moving forward.

Real have good buying power so could compete well with the rich EPL clubs. Barca maybe but they may not be as attractive as the former. PSG, if they don't win the CL in the next 3 years no-one is gonna take their project seriously.

Real will have to rebuild as well in coming years, not as right now, but in 2-3 years max I think. Ronaldo is 33, Ramos just turned 32, Modric 33 and so on.

The thing is they are mostly excellent getting the right kind of players, but those mentioned will be hard to replace. Especially Ronaldo and Ramos, last one is everything for this Real team.
Theyll probably spend enough money to make sure they don't decline. They have barely spent much over the last couple of seasons. I do agree with your point in general though. We just have to take a look at Barca who haven't had a smooth transition since the Xavi and Iniesta days

Bayern are a team in big decline. As are we. For Real this is too the last great season in CL.
It's quite obvious that from next year a new era of EPL domination will start.
I have been thinking the same. Even Barca look awful. Real will still be there or thereabouts next season tho imo.
That's why it's so important for us to keep the best players and finally fill the gaps. We can be the most solid team while others will be rebuilding/getting their European experience.


did someone say keep the best players?? :beppe:

they gonna have to keep Neymar tho. if he goes to Madrid, their domination might extend. Mbappe as well. and if they can build a monopoly on the french talent pool, they are in pole position, even before they spend ridiculous money on superstars

We need to rebuild heavily in the coming years on some vital positions. I dont expect us to do well in Europe in the coming years.
It's funny to hear a Bayern fan say they need to rebuild heavily when the situation for Bayern is not as critical as Juve's :D Try being a Juve fan, our midfierld is ruined, our defence is so far away of what if used to be, and a lot of veterans are leaving

I send you this :heart::kiss:

Next year will be either Juve or Bayerns year - the heart says it :D
its gonna take a huge mercato, not in terms of spending lots of cash, but hitting jackpots like Vidal, Tevez, Pirlo etc

And most importantly we don't have Bayern Munich financial muscle

We don't have much of a choice really especially with the backline and that poor midfield. Rebuilding is necessary on our part.

I think Barca are gonna have a hard time in the coming years, Messi getting older, Suarez getting older, mediocre midfield (looking at their usual standards the last 10 years or more), and the loss of Neymar.

Was it you who said PL will be on the rise again? I kinda agree with that. They have the money and its all a cyclus in football.

The thing is Ribery and Robben have carried us to so much succes, so it will be hard to replace them 1-1. Coman is doing an excellent job, but is out with an injury and then we get Gnabry in who had a great season for Hoffenheim.

None of those two are world beaters, but well Bayern fans gotta put their faith in both. Maybe we will go out with the big wallet in the summer and look for yet another world class winger, I would be glad.

@BayernFan

You forgot who is our next coach, didn't you? I just hope we won't face Madrid again with Kovac and this squad. I still believe we can beat them, tbh.

We can beat them, but damn we are fucking up everytime we meet them. Making those fuck ups on this stage means exit 9 out 10 times.

When are Bayern replacing Robbery? They are mid 30s. You cant expect to rely on them to make difference. And who you have lined up? Is that Goretzka guy going to play where?

You guys needs to find a way to stop controlling that ball from the back. Pass less at the back and more in their half imo
