At least we have a big advantage on race starts!
Oh wait, they changed the rules to help everyone else with their race starts.

The best album of the 2020’s is getting robbed… @Architectsuk thank you for releasing the masterpiece that is “the sky, the earth & all between”, truly a life changing piece of art
• Money was there for Wirtz and Woltemade. Why is it suddenly not there anymore and you can only loan?
Herbert Hainer: "I've already answered and said that we're cautious buyers. We've also spent €75m on Luis Díaz. So it's not that we don't spend money. A loan deal also costs money. Sporting success and economic stability go hand in hand at FC Bayern"
President Herbert Hainer on the supervisory board's decision to only loan and not buy: "Because we're cautious buyers. FC Bayern is known for its financial stability. We have a strong team and think we can cover that with a loan player." [@_kochmaximilian]
They want to profit financially, not win everything and guess what, with the way things are going, even profiting will not happen within the next few years. One or two seasons in the red were going to be totally okay and bring in way more to the club in the future than now
Eberl on Bayern's goals this season: "When you work for Bayern, you always want the maximum possible. We go into a season wanting to win everything. But then things develop during the season. We want to get off to a successful start tomorrow"
Can’t wait for the moment when our big player (Musiala, Kane, Ollise) decide to leave this club because of it’s incompetence, but it’s all right, we saved money, which we will spend next year! Oh wait, they said that last year… and the year before.
Eberl/Freund have clearly been told by the club's bosses that they're only allowed to sign players on loan for the rest of the window. The Nkunku deal has stalled because Chelsea are currently only open to a permanent sale. Eberl, Freund, Kompany and Nkunku are all frustrated as a result [@Plettigoal, @SkySportNews]
Cook them. Literally the only season in the last 10 years or so we had decent squad depth (2019/2020) we won the treble, but we just continue doing stupid shit over and over again…
Kane on the squad/transfers: "It's probably one of the smallest squads I've ever played in. There's still time until the transfer window closes and decisions could be made by Max, Christoph, and the coach. We have some young players who have done very well in pre-season. We're a bit thin, but that's not in the players' control." [via @GoalDeutschland]
Bayern's transfer meeting took place last Wednesday morning at Säbener Straße. CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen and Supervisory Board Chairman Herbert Hainer, along with sporting directors Max Eberl and Christoph Freund, set the course for the rest of the transfer window. The result of the meeting was that following the signing of Luis Díaz from Liverpool, Bayern bosses have decided that there's no urgent need for further signings. However, if revenue can be generated through sales, further signings are possible. The Nick Woltemade case is an exception. The Stuttgart striker has his own budget. But the move will only go ahead if Stuttgart accepts Bayern's terms [@altobelli13, @cfbayern, @linner_nicolas, @AgardiJulian]
Tottenham have agreed personal terms with João Palhinha and are in advanced talks with Bayern. Initial loan deal with an option to buy, not mandatory. Spurs will cover his full salary [@FabrizioRomano]
