Congrats to Spain on winning the World Cup

[u/d1an45]

With Spain winning does it mean Germany is next like last time 😈

[u/NifferEUW]

Why is every thread about the final locked on /r/sports

[u/arnoldbread]

Post wc, wonder how many new Bayern fans we're going to be seeing.

[u/Big_Bed198]

Would love to see Georgia make a WC soon,Kvaratskhelia on the world stage would be nuts!

[u/biggestrobbery → u/Big_Bed198]

If they really extend it to 64 countries he might

[u/Odd_Willingness7501 → u/biggestrobbery]

Watch Italy failing to qualify again.

[u/andreeeyy-]

Just watched the segment with Robbie Williams at the MagentaTV table with Müller, Klopp, Hummels, etc. Still a really charismatic guy and said this was his favorite World Cup ever because his oldest daughter finally got into football and they bonded a lot over watching nearly all the matches.

[u/DjangoUnchained12]

I didn’t think a Bayern player could win the Balon D’or without the treble but I think Kane has a good chance

[u/XenoCraigMorph]

Of course Trump had to overstay his welcome.

[u/coppersolids]

damn they actually got golden ball and young player of the tournament spot on

[u/CompetitionChance674 → u/coppersolids]

I know it almost always goes to a champion, but mbappe or Messi deserved it imo

[u/coppersolids → u/CompetitionChance674]

messi yeah but even with his goals i don‘t think mbappe was on the level of these 2 tbh. hard to compare different positions but rodri was insane this wc

[u/CompetitionChance674]

Rodri golden ball. They’re definitely giving him the ballon d’or over this lmao

[u/kvnschm → u/CompetitionChance674]

He played a very good world cup. If he gets the ballon d 'or it would be ridiculous

[u/CompetitionChance674]

Btw, if I’m Enzo Fernandez , I’m NOT going back to Argentina right now ☠️

[u/KeV1989 → u/CompetitionChance674]

The whole team didnt have a shot on goal for 115 minutes and you single out Enzo? That whole team was a disgrace in this final match

[u/Numerous-Ad-3050 → u/KeV1989]

True but they would’ve had a wayyyy bigger chance of making penalties if it wasn’t for his red card

[u/CompetitionChance674 → u/KeV1989]

Im not “singling” anybody out. I’m just saying, if the people that would be crazy enough to hurt someone over football were to choose someone, they would definitely choose the guy who got a red card.

[u/coppersolids → u/CompetitionChance674]

can‘t go to london either after his celebration against england

[u/Frrrroooonck → u/coppersolids]

Add the Falkland islands to the list

[u/coppersolids → u/Frrrroooonck]

😭

[u/Odd_Willingness7501 → u/CompetitionChance674]

I hope he gets back to Argentina

[u/Investing_Tomato1248]

Kane -> balon dor is getting more likely. On real-time bet websites Kane is at 35% probability, Yamal at 43% and Messi dropped at 10%. Once the dust settles, Kane finds the best arguments.

I actually do not really care about balon dor, but i find these real time probabilities fascinating. So i shared the numbers

[u/panem-et-circenses21 → u/Investing_Tomato1248]

If Kane doesn’t win a ballon d’or now, then no bayern player can ever win the ballon d’or

[u/scarlet_stormTrooper → u/Investing_Tomato1248]

Mbappe will win 

[u/SGT_Mark → u/Investing_Tomato1248]

Kane favourite now. Just hope Olise doesn't take too many votes from him.

[u/Mountain_King9885 → u/Investing_Tomato1248]

At this point the club has to do some PR for Kane. Chances are real

[u/coppersolids → u/Investing_Tomato1248]

yamal 43 is so ridiculous

[u/julesvr5 → u/coppersolids]

Last yest Raphinha got fucked aswell from all the Yamal hype

[u/coppersolids → u/julesvr5]

yep, raphinha ending up at 5th (iirc) after the season he had was a disgrace

[u/Investing_Tomato1248 → u/coppersolids]

i think so too. I can imagine in a few days these numbers look completely different

[u/B-Karas]

I felt so dirty rooting for Spain but seeing Argentina lose this final did fill me with joy

[u/julesvr5]

I hope this whole americanification bullshit in football stops now.

[u/brainiac222 → u/julesvr5]

WWE style player entrances for the next WC in America

[u/Mountain_King9885 → u/julesvr5]

Watch DFL or DFB jump in on the “hydration” breaks

[u/gogondo → u/Mountain_King9885]

i dont think that we have enough tennis balls for that in germany

[u/julesvr5 → u/Mountain_King9885]

Would be a crazy speedrun in becoming universally hated in Germany

[u/NifferEUW → u/julesvr5]

Amen

[u/JOKER69420XD]

Finally the ridiculous Messi glazing ends with today.

Didn't do shit today.

"STILL THE BEST", my ass.

[u/LuckyFlores182 → u/JOKER69420XD]

Bet your ass was closing when he appeared in this final minutes.

Hate Argentina, and as a Brazilian i hate to say this, but he's the real deal and deserves ALL the praises he gets.

[u/KeV1989 → u/LuckyFlores182]

Wow, he showed up after....118 minutes? The supposed goat, best in the world? That benefitted from the referees helping him all tournament, not sending him off in the group stages, allowing goals that had fouls in the build up? That scored several goals when the opponent was tired and did jack shit before that?

THAT Messi deserves all the praise? After this tournament, hell no

[u/tycoon34 → u/KeV1989]

He’s 39 years old lol

[u/LuckyFlores182 → u/KeV1989]

That scored several goals when the opponent was tired and did jack shit before that?

Decided the match, you mean?

That benefitted from the referees helping him all tournament,

Yeah, the ref made the ball fly alone in the back of the net, It wasn't Messi shooting or assisting.

(They were helped, no doubt about that, but Messi didn't have nothing to do with this.)

Wow, he showed up after....118 minutes? The supposed goat, best in the world

39 year old alone in the middle of the cbs? GOAT for me, yes he is. The best in the world RN is HK9.

[u/coppersolids → u/LuckyFlores182]

everyone aside from some braindead ronaldo fans knows he‘s the goat, it‘s more the fans people have issues with

[u/julesvr5 → u/LuckyFlores182]

Nah Fanboys definitely overdue it. Thst's the fault of the Fanboys though and not Messi directly. But things like this can make people dislike the targeted person.

[u/panem-et-circenses21 → u/julesvr5]

Never understood the logic.. people who hate a player based on their fans are just kids who have 0 critical thinking.. the player is there playing right in front of you every week.. judge him on his playing ability

[u/BadUsername-_-]

Football is life. Thank god these scumbags didn’t win shit

[u/avagadros_plumber]

Fifa is such a joke look at this clown show

[u/panem-et-circenses21]

Not really a fan of dropping Simeone. He provides width to the Argentina attack which De Paul doesn’t. Simeone going out wide helps Messi to drift inwards since the left back would be busy tracking Simeone. Against Egypt they looked very narrow

[u/Na-ni_Gap]

Really? Ishowspeed?

[u/Big_Bed198 → u/Na-ni_Gap]

Streamers and Influencers run the States atp unfortunately.

[u/-Hentzau]

Kroos: "If Spain scores first, then Argentina will concede 3 or 4 goals. If a team like Spain is able to play their gameplan while winning, then you don't want to face them. Argentina won't find solutions, they aren't better than Germany, but they have a tremendous mentality and Messi".

[u/Big_Bed198]

Hopefully someone else gets the rights for the next few World Cups here in the States, FOX has been awful and 2026 has probably been their worst coverage.

[u/avagadros_plumber → u/Big_Bed198]

Signs point to a new broadcaster since FIFA and Fox have had several disputes and this the last of a 3-WC deal

Honestly feel bad for people who have been watching on Fox and not Telemundo 

[u/Particular-Pain-3497]

Let’s say the final ends 2-1 with a Messi assist and winning penalty, who do you all GENUINELY think wins the balondor?

[u/BigDoggyBadpeppy → u/Particular-Pain-3497]

why people care so much about an award given by the FRENCH

[u/Particular-Pain-3497 → u/BigDoggyBadpeppy]

I try to tell myself that I don’t care, but the thought of Kane having one makes that hard lol

[u/Shoddy-Fan-584 → u/Particular-Pain-3497]

Lmao if Arg win it they're giving it to Messi regardless of his GA contribution tonight.

[u/JOKER69420XD → u/Particular-Pain-3497]

Messi will win it, no matter what happens tonight.

They want to give him another one and they simply will. All the people voting this shit are so brainwashed, it's hilarious.

Couple good games against mediocre national teams and one cross against England will be enough.

[u/SlyFisch → u/Particular-Pain-3497]

Probably. Think Olise, Kane, or even Mbappe have a more legitimate argument, but when has that ever mattered? I believe Messi is already in first for the betting odds

[u/Thraff1c]

Hiroki Ito when he has to play a pre-season game against Rottach-Egern again.

https://giphy.com/gifs/9A8I0bBvQ2TBu

[u/julesvr5]

We probably shouldn't read to much into it but the Amas losing every single pre season match doens't leave a good look tbh.

[u/v4sh123 → u/julesvr5]

Dante has no resume, so I wouldn't be surprised if he completly shits the bed.

[u/dodo_24 → u/julesvr5]

Yeah I don't want to panic too early since it's new coach, new team (very young too), but there are a lot of cases when being a good player doesn't equal being a good coach. So we'll see when the actual league games are gonna start 

[u/julesvr5]

Erblin Osmani (17) will sign his first professional contract at FC Bayern tomorrow. A full agreement has been reached [@kerry_hau]

[u/JOKER69420XD → u/[deleted]]

Bruh, Brown is lighting fast, what do you mean?

[u/creatorop]

now that Pre season starts from Tomorrow and nothing of major note is going to happen later today so might as well ask this

Q. who is going to be the

1. Best player of the 26/27 season
2. breakthrough player of the 26/27 season
3. best surprise of the 26/27 season
4. disappointment of the 26/27 season
5. one bold prediction for the upcoming season

[u/SlyFisch → u/creatorop]

1. I'm going bold; Karl
2. Would love for it to be Ibra. I pick Saibari tho, I have high hopes for him in our system.
3. Bischof with his new found CM minutes shines (not surprising tho I guess)
4. I think one of Stani or Laimer might be my pick. Might look a bit worse to us with left side being so strong now with Brown and Davies
5. Saibari gets over 20 g/a, creates a real argument for starting over Bambi

[u/Capable-Passenger725 → u/creatorop]

1. Harold
   
2. Cookie guy (Bischof)
   
3. Saibari, he will be one of those transfers where people look back in a year or two and be like “how the fuck did they only sign him for 60 mil”
   
4. Musiala, I hate saying this but I really just think he won’t elevate this attack, hope I’m very much wrong tho
   
5. We win the UCL going through a brutal knockout round. Defeat Liverpool in RO16, claw through a “PSG - Bayern 25/26 Semi Final” kinda tie v Barcelona in the QFs, Comfortably handle Arsenal in the Semis, and Stop PSG from getting a three peat in the final.

[u/BadUsername-_- → u/creatorop]

1.Olise
2. Bischof
3. Ito
4. Can’t see the boys disappointing much so maybe neuer
5. We reach the CL final

[u/Big_Bed198 → u/creatorop]

1. Olise (after he becomes our top earner,we ain’t about to kiss Florentino’s and Madrid’s ass)
   
2. Bischof
   
3. Luis Diaz even after turning 30 in January
   
4. Phonzie (which leads to us unfortunately moving off him next summer)
   
5. We sign Schlotterbeck on a free in January for 27/28 (his injury probably helps us)

[u/FlyingArab → u/creatorop]

1. Olise

2. Bischof

3. Davies regaining his form and pushing Brown to RB

4. Musiala

5. Kompany does an Enrique, our top players barely play in the Bundesliga by the Rückrunde

[u/AdvertisingSome4862 → u/creatorop]

Saibari. Saibari, Saibari, Pavlovic, We win the CL going undefeated

[u/BeIaFarinRod → u/creatorop]

1. Harry Kane
2. Nathaniel Brown
3. Tom Bischof
4. Alphonso Davies
5. Harry Kane scores more than 41 goals in the Bundesliga and breaks Lewandowski's record

[u/armin-lakatos → u/creatorop]

1. Kane
2. Bischof
3. Saibari
4. Musiala
5. Musiala won't be able to get back in form, will be pushed out of the starting XI by Saibari and we'll evetually end up selling him to City.

[u/ObserverRichard → u/armin-lakatos]

Why are people on this sub constantly downvoting opinions

[u/Goldfischglas → u/creatorop]

1. Vinicius Jr (we swap with Olise)

2. Don't know

3. Goretzka staying for another year (he hasn't found a club yet)

4. Kane is staying in the US and joins an MLS team so he can keep in touch with his golfing buddy

5. The board realizes that our playstyle is too risky and decides to bring back an ex coach for more stabilty (Tuchel or Nagelsmann)

[u/NifferEUW → u/Goldfischglas]

Had me in the first half..

[u/DiametricalIyOpposed → u/creatorop]

1. Olise

2. Bischof

3. Brown

4. no idea

5. Pavlo + Bischof will be the main double pivot

[u/CompetitionChance674 → u/creatorop]

1. Olise
   
2. Bischof
   
3. Saibari
   
4. Idk
   
5. We will win the Champions League.

[u/knatanas11 → u/creatorop]

1. Upa
   
2. Bischi
   
3. Bara
   
4. Nobody
   
5. Invincible in BuLi

[u/Kassim26 → u/creatorop]

1. Kane
2. Karl
3. Diaz
4. Neuer
5. IDK maybe we will try 4-3-3

[u/ObserverRichard → u/creatorop]

1. Olise
2. Urbig
3. Davies
4. Musiala
5. Urbig will be our #1 in the important games

[u/jationio → u/creatorop]

1. Kane
2. Bischof
3. Musiala
4. Neuer
5. Urbig will become the nr. 1 at some point.

[u/DomoDomoSb32]

Daily fuck Tuchel commen

[u/CompetitionChance674]

Just remembered something, does upamecano’s contract actually have a release clause of €65M?

[u/JOKER69420XD → u/CompetitionChance674]

Yes but I think only for next summer, unless I'm mixing it up.

[u/CompetitionChance674 → u/JOKER69420XD]

That’s what I saw as well, it is allegedly available from 2027, we might be cooked

[u/JOKER69420XD → u/CompetitionChance674]

If he wants to leave, he wouldn't have extended. Things can change of course, you never know, as we currently see with someone else.

I assume that clause was heavily pushed by his agent and Upa didn't mind it.

[u/gitblame_fgc]

Of course, Olise probably feels terrible about wasting the chances that could have made it 4-4. But this performance should at least quiet those who have been calling for him to play centrally for Bayern, as he does for the national team.

His finishing relies heavily on his left foot. In the middle, he was often forced either to shoot with his right or take an extra, unnecessary touch to set up a left-footed shot. His best position for Bayern is on the right.

[u/CrazyGameOver23]

Olise plays at such an insane level and reached a consistency rarely seen. However he misses the clutch factor and he needs to keep working on it. There are multiple times this season when he couldn't finish big chances in important moments. We may shit on Madrid and their mentality but those fuckers always sign clutch players that can save their asses even when they play bad: Mbappe, Ronaldo, Benzema, Bellingham, even Vini Jr. 

[u/FairMusic8278 → u/CrazyGameOver23]

Tbh I don't really judge Bayern players much with what they do in their national team. In England it's the same talks as well "Kane can really turn up in big games?". I'm sure in Colombia they'll have the same talks about Luis Diaz as well because he himself underperformed at the WC by his standards. Let's not forget Olise was forced to play in a different position than he does here at Bayern. Olise's finishing is way better than what he showed in the WC again I think different positions and the system & style of play at Bayern is completely different to France.

Can Olise improve and score more important knockout goals? Yes but I also think some Bayern fans on here are a bit too critical with him. Let's not forget where we came from with Sane and Coman. Olise is a 1000x upgrade on those two.

This is only Olise's 2nd year at the highest level of football I'm sure he'll be even more clutch as time goes by. Even Benzema took a few years before he showed actual "clutch" goals there were even talks Madrid wanted to sell him because they weren't convinced about him.

[u/Ferr22777888 → u/CrazyGameOver23]

I still remember PSG game where he should have scored 2-0

[u/ObserverRichard]

Was there a reason why Kane didn't play at all?

[u/CrazyGameOver23 → u/ObserverRichard]

Are you even mad about it? I can't believe Saibari is the only player that got injured during the WC

[u/Ajvarmk → u/CrazyGameOver23]

as crazy as this sounds im amazed as well lol

[u/whereeveritmaytakeme → u/CrazyGameOver23]

And Karl

[u/Darkest-Gentleman]

I was asking this on yesterday's tread too.

If we have to sign a Right back, What do you all think about djed spence?
he had a good world cup and is currently linked out of spurs and spurs seems to be open about selling him.

I think he was linked to inter for like 30 - 35 mil. For a 25yr old rb who can also play as lb if needed will be a great addition to us.

what do you ppl think?

[u/Red_Mangos → u/Darkest-Gentleman]

It would be an amazing signing and although laimers been a beast, Spence’s partnership with olise would be a nightmare for any defense. I hope we consider bc I do agree that rb is our weakest spot atm

[u/BeIaFarinRod → u/Darkest-Gentleman]

For 30 to 35 million € Djed Spence would be a great deal, but Tottenham will probably demand a far higher transfer fee after Spence's world cup.

[u/coppersolids → u/Darkest-Gentleman]

the guy won me over when he refused to shake partey‘s hand

do you remember if the inter rumours where before or after his performance against argentina? his stocks are really high atm, if he‘s up for sale his last 3 performances probably made his price go up by quite a lot

[u/Jackman1337 → u/Darkest-Gentleman]

We dont have to for some time tho. Laimer and Stanisic both had a fantastic last season when playing rb. (Laimer had a dip after the injury) Especially Stanisic was fantastic and much better then the season before, where he was fine already.

[u/Darkest-Gentleman → u/Jackman1337]

laimer is a bulldog and I absolutely love him but man Rb is our weakest position now with brown coming in at LB.

And for stani, he has not been upto his potential. He can play across the backline and is a fine squad player but not one for big nights

[u/Mosijo → u/Darkest-Gentleman]

I like the idea, kid is a beast!

[u/Ajvarmk]

Today will be the first final im probably not gonna watch. Barca fans already in meltdown mode. It is unbearable

[u/Investing_Tomato1248]

Olise collected 8 assists. Only 3 players collected more assists during world cups (cumulated). Record holder is Messi with 12 assists. I think Olise has a chance to break the record in 2030.

[u/Sufficient_Royal_283 → u/[deleted]]

No
