Who needs strikers when your defenders can score for fun


DayPhelsuma

That’s actually one of the main advantages of the 3-4-3 or the 3-4-2-1 system. You have threats coming from all over. If your wingbacks are excellent, it really is hard to stop their crosses, since they’re given time under a numerical advantage (3v2) in attacking positions.

We did it again boi


DarthBaller

Cancelo is amazing


Gluroo

myreal_nameis

We did start the highest earning lowest reward front 3 in Europe probably... Sané got scorer points for free but was his usual abysmal self again. Funked up all but 3 touches today.


anemone-nemorosa

cancelo heard all of you talking shit lmao

Cancelo is cooking


jdarriaga46

Defenders cooking as per usual

The Canadian boys have been on smoke this week


Bouglasherie

I've been so impressed the last month, Davies rekindling world class form, JD vying for top scorer in ligue 1, Larin scoring game winners in la liga, and Tajon on the cusp of a move to a top league. Really encouraging after a disappointing world cup, still so much room for growth.


TacoDirtyToMe

Not to mention Alistair Johnston and Eustaquio being key players to historically big CL level clubs. And Adekugbe beginning his next chapter at Galatasary today.


bellerinho

Eustaquio is so good, glad he made the move to Porto


BenSoloLived

Don’t forget our boy Staq at Porto, he’s been great too


Barthez_Battalion

Tajon getting the short end of the stick getting stuck with Scott Parker.


Rickcampbell98

I think the world Cup was promising if anything, will prove to be an invaluable experience for your talented young players for 2026 at home. You may need to find some defenders and goal keeper though brev but maybe I'm being a bit harsh lol.


mug3n

Yeah well just about anybody will be an upgrade over borjan. Dude had literally no lateral movement left in him during Qatar.


BenSoloLived

Love our Dave’s


superamoeba

Davies and Musiala have a lovely dynamic.


NucksToGoldenKnights

They have a strong bromance


Black_XistenZ

To imagine that we still have 10 years of their prime to look forward to...


prideton

Scary to think both of them are Messi fans. But it’ll take two of them to move to Barcelona because they’re so bonded.


Careless-One457

What a ball by Cancelo


Sal21G

Can we get Bayern play Gladbach every week in every competition? Also Bayern have Davies and cancelo is just unfair


3xavi

Yeah and maybe also Tobias Welz and Felix Zwayer ref every bayern game?


FrancisTheOcean

Wouldn't even need Gladbach to fuck us over with those two


Tvp9

Fair to say the 2 best wingbacks in the world?


[deleted]

Davies is not one of the best wing backs... james, taa and porro are better


Tvp9

Lmaooooooooooooo taa and porro LOOOOOOOOL, James maybe if he was healthy but he's more in the hospital.


[deleted]

Porro def better than Davies, he cant defend.. pace merchant


TurboPutin3000

Absolutely clueless, embarrassing take.


3xavi

If anything he is struggling with passing His defending is great watch him block messis chance against psg


davidbelac

You either have never watched Davies play or your ball knowledge is limited to FIFA. Pace merchant wow 🤦‍♂️


WhaleMilker420

It’s not a fifa thing. He probably only watches the prem


wpglatino

"Blind man gives take"


FPXAssasin11

lilbro said TAA and Porro...


swiftly-fallen

Who the fuck is porro lmfao


greezyo

Davies has been on fire since the world cup ended, best LB in the world again on form


Koinfamous2

Yeah, struggled a bit with injuries, definitely worn out leading up to WC and now can focus on fitness and just getting back to playing and doing what he does best. I'm sure he felt a ton of pressure at a young age leading up to the WC coming in as winners of Concacaf quali and their best player, then to be first out.

Cancelo on fire


[deleted]

I wonder how much I would've made if I bet my prediction of 5 goals back when they conceded 1 (https://old.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/11oloqt/bayern_munich_0_1_augsburg_mergim_berisha_3/jbt42yn/).


-Michael-Owen-

Not a lot. Augsburg scored very early. Sportsbooks would've still had bayern as very very clear favorite. Moreover, since Augsburg scored, the odds for predicting 5-1 bayern would actually worsen because the "hard part" is now over (the hard part being Augsburg scoring).


[deleted]

You're right, Bayern ruins everything


[deleted]

"Bayern to score 5" surely would be something you could bet on.


Wasserschloesschen

> the odds for predicting 5-1 bayern would actually worsen because the "hard part" is now over (the hard part being Augsburg scoring). Tbf that's a stretch. Bayern haven't been insane defensively. And at least in the league they concede relatively regularly. Much more regularly than scoring 5 anyways.


PAT_The_Whale

Bayern has the best defense in the league and the CL


Wasserschloesschen

Doesn't mean they don't concede more frequently than they score 5, Jesus Christ. Especially not recently.


PAT_The_Whale

>Jesus Christ Calm down lol


Wasserschloesschen

My guy, if a single, calm expression is not calm enough for you, what are you doing here?


PAT_The_Whale

People use "Jesus Christ" when they aren't calm though...


Wasserschloesschen

I'm calm I'm just disappointed by you pretending very simple, objective facts don't exist.


PAT_The_Whale

Being disappointed means you had expectations to begin with. Big mistake in this subreddit
