Bayern Munich 2010-2011

[H@SSàN]

Every season Bayern has a bad start, I'm not worried about the team performance this season, I'm just little bit worried about the defense especially if they keep van buyten as a starter...

Daniel van Buyten scores late winner for Bayern 2 - 1 win at Hoffenheim

Ribery is suffering Ankle Injury, was tackled just before the 1st goal in the 63rd Minute.

The great thing about Muller is that he's always in the right place to get the rebound and score. Golden Boy.

[Confucius]

pick another nickname for him, the Golden Boy is ours anyways yep he's a growing player game after game, I like him he's smart and willing to learn!
the TIGER rules! I love him
wtf is wrong with players and their tackling! first Valencia then Messi and now Ribery, they should punish players who cause such bad injuries, hek others won't dare to go in such silly and unnecessary challenges..

Ribery sidelined

Bayern feared the worst when a grimacing Franck Ribéry was supported from the field by two members of the coaching staff after 64 minutes of Tuesday evening’s Bundesliga fixture away to Hoffenheim. The Frenchman left the Sinsheim stadium on crutches, “and our first reaction was that it was really bad,” director of sport Christian Nerlinger told fcbayern.de.

However, an MRI scan performed by club chief medic Dr. Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt on Wednesday morning showed the injury was not as serious as originally feared. Ribéry has sustained a torn anterior ligament in his right ankle and also suffered bruising to the joint. “But he won’t require surgery, so there’s a silver lining to the cloud,” said Nerlinger, “I think he might be in a position to resume the team training programme in about three weeks.”

Bayern lost against Mainz in the bundesliga today (1-2) and still having 8 points out of 6 matches. That's a very bad start from them, while Mainz is leading the bundesliga with 6 wins out of 6 matches.

Bayern is certainly missing Robben and Ribery, add to it their weak defense and the Horrible Jorg Butt.

The team needs to make changes in the defense ASAP, why the hell they don't buy new players and a goalkeeper?

Meanwhile they had an offer to sell Gomez, the most useless player in Bayern's history, but they are keeping him for no reason.

Contento sidelined for four to six weeks

Bayern’s current poor run of luck with injuries continued at the weekend on news that left-back Diego Contento will be out of action for up to six weeks. The 20-year-old defender has undergone surgery on his left groin, coach Louis van Gaal reported on Sunday. The Munich youth product could be back in training four weeks from now, Van Gaal said.

Groin problems kept Contento out of Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at home to Bundesliga leaders FSV Mainz. For Tuesday’s Champions League trip to face Swiss double winners FC Basel, Van Gaal is also definitely without Arjen Robben, Franck Ribéry, David Alaba and Breno, although the Brazilian centre-back has now resumed the team training programme after recovering from cruciate ligament damage.

Van Gaal signs new deal
Head coach extends stay until 2012

Bayern boss Louis van Gaal has signed a new contract keeping him at the helm of Germany’s most successful club until 30 June 2012. The head coach inked the new deal on Monday following the Bayern party’s arrival in Basel. Van Gaal’s staff members Andries Jonker (assistant coach) Frans Hoek (goalkeeping coach), Jos van Dyk (sport physiologist), Marcel Bout (scout) and Max Reckers (match analysis) will also remain with the club until 2012.

“We’ve agreed the fundamentals of a contract extension. It's not signed yet, but it’s a mere formality,” Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge had announced ahead of the FCB party’s departure for Tuesday evening’s Champions League Group E fixture against the Swiss double winners.

Van Gaal’s current deal in Munich was set to expire at the end of this season. The new contract removes any uncertainty over both parties’ positions for a further season. The board of directors was never going to be dissuaded from pursuing a new deal with Van Gaal simply because of the club’s patchy start to the 2010-11 campaign, Rummenigge stated.

“I always prefer doing things which might not have been expected. People are always extending contracts after victories, so this sends out a very good signal to the world at large about our opinion of the coach’s value, even though we lost to Mainz,” the club chairman continued.
