Funny how us English fans or other European fans continue to slag Bayern Munich for having it easy in their domestic league and yet this is the same Bayern Munich we all want to avoid in the Champions league.

The 50 + 1 rule is what I like about Bundesliga. A game of football is nothing when there is no fans involvement in it.

Most German players as they grow they always have a dream of playing for Bayern Munich, just like in Spain players want either Barca or Real Madrid.

This video was needed. I'm not a Bayern fan, but some people should change their perspectives. Bayern is not attractive for money. They are attractive for their smartness in the infrastructures and obviously, the culture.

As a German footbal fan, I can assure you, that every fan wants to keep the 50+1 rule. We're very proud of our German leagues. Of course it's a bit boring that you know even before the season starts that Bayern is going to win the league again, but from 2nd to 18th it's often closer than you'd think. Same goes for the 2nd league, and even the 3rd. And while I hate that Bayern is so strong nationally, I at the same time must just admit watching them play football is just amazing. (Not a Bayern btw, just appreciating a good kick)

I only have admiration for Bayern. They dominate by decades of good management and not external money. Chapo!

Rummennigge, beckenbauer , O khan their roles at the board room level is one of the main reason for their success

One thing that wasn't mentioned in particular is Bayern's ability to overcome adversities. Every time you think Bayern are struggling (e.g. the time under Nico Kovac) they somehow find a way to come back and still at least win the league lmao Also at the beginning of this season a lot of people here in Germany had their hopes up for Bayern struggling due to the mayor departures of club legends Alaba, Boateng and also Flick... 5 matchdays later they're back on top with 20 goals scored I can only imagine how frustrating it's gotta be for the rest of the Bundesliga.

There have been times where Bayern did struggle. Being almost 10 points behind first place at some point. There just hasn‘t been someone to take advantage of that unlike Inter in italy for example last season.

3 Things: 1. Representation in German National Team and Dominance in European games made everyone their fan. 2. Players like Lewandoski, Muller, Kimmich, Neuer have fans even in non-football first countries. 3. Their Board is made of former Bayern Legends and Players ensuring club first policy unlike clubs like Chelsea, CIty, United, PSG, Madrid, etc.

Think Bayern are the model run club. Good finances, excellent scouting, management often including ex players that watch over the club's culture, and obviously the sportive successes in especially Germany itself, but not unexceptionally in Europe too. Can only take my hat off for them.

Remember when the 50+1 rule was the best thing in the world once everybody realized that it played a role in stopping clubs like Dortmund and Bayern from joining the Super League? And how almost every fan of the initial Super League teams wanted the 50+1 implemented within their own club in order to stop this sort of thing from happening again? Yeah, that lasted about 2 days. Now it's absolutely evil and should be abolished for the Bundesliga to thrive. Which is utterly ridiculous. What short memories we all have.

its amazing than no English club has tryed to become a partner/feeder club for bayern in the uk, for one id ask them for advice on building another one of those beautiful looking stadiums over here, im no bayern fan but its looks sick with the lights.

Even though they had been dominant before, all of this really started with the signings of Ribery Lahm and Schweinsteiger Müller and Robben. Those five changed the club, they later added Alaba Neuer Boateng and the foundation of domination was born. 😂 Jupp in 2013 build the final team and won the treble. Since then they are simply on a mission. Müller and Neuer are still looking strong, the players who retired were replaced incredibly smart and cheap with players like Gnabry/Coman (Ribery) Sane (Robben) Kimmich (Lahm) Goretzka (Schweinsteiger) Upamecano/Süle (Boateng) Davies (Alaba) Pavard (also Lahm😂) . Thats smart team building, just the most well run club in history. Oh and theysigned Lewandowski for free😂😂😂

Prem fans talking about Bayern monopolizing the league but always leave out the fact that it was their Money which lead to Bayern (and A LOT of teams from other leagues) not being able to compete with them financially anymore and thus have to buy players just from their own league. I mean, what else should they do ? 90% of the footballers go where the most money is, so they go to the prem. If Lewandowski, Upamecano etc. wouldn't have gone to Bayern, they would've signed for a Prem club or Barça/Real. Bayern doesn't care if their league is exciting or not, they want to win trophies (like EVERY OTHER TEAM IN THE WORLD) and most importantly the CL. If they can't attract players from the prem because of financial reasons (I mean, the LAST prem club gets more TV Money than Bayern...let that sink in...) they HAVE to buy players from other BL teams in order to compete on the International stage.

Your videos are such a joy to watch… reminds me why i love football so much

As a Chelsea fan I'd like Halaand to come to EPL but if I was he's agent this is the team I'd sign him to

But the point it they don't even spend that much on players They just turn already good player to excellent players Sorry for my bad english

Looking at it from Germany, I really agree with your final words. The Bundesliga isn't perfect, but the 50+1 rule is SO important, it should never be sacrificed.

problem is also when bayern has stopped buying from dortmund..dortmund have sold aubameyang,pulisic,sancho and dembele in recent seasons..if bayern dont buy them they still sell and become weaker...leverkusen lost havertz and leipzig lost werner and konate...same would have happened to upemacano and sabitzer if bayern would not have bought them...it does not realy matter if bayern buys them or not at this point....its either bayern or going to spain or england. weakening the league...if bayern dont buy and become weak the league would be in danger of loosing the 4th sport in ucl to france...they got that spot because of bayern performance in ucl...and its because of bayern that bundesliga is getting more popular with the thrashings to barca and english teams...alot of people now watch bundesliga because of them...like now here in the middle east u will see kids with bayern jerseys while we watch the bundesliga.

A well made video and very informative, but comeon, i know Bayern gets a lot of players from their competitors, but its not like they put a gun on their head. They wanted to pay Lewy even before his contract ran out, BVB didnt accept so he came for free, i wouldnt say they poached him, Gotze had a release clause, everyone could pay that, HE chose Bayern, Nagelsman is born just just 50-60km outside of Munich, of course he is a Bayern fan and would want to coach them, Sabitzer was a on a trail at Bayerns academy and he chose to go and develop as a player before returning to his favorite club. etc etc. but what should they do, leave the players to leave for the prem league or la liga? If you check on transfers about poaching, Dortmund also bought from their competitors even more as bayern bought from them, but nobody is talking about that because bayern wins the league and they are sort of the bad guy. Bayern keeps the cash flowing in the bundesliga, its the other teams responsibility how they spend it, they can easily buy players with the 50-60 mil bayern spends on one of they superstarts and build a solid team, or at least pay their players higher wages so they wont leave, but they dont. BVB got 150Mil from the Dembele transfer, what did they get with that money to attack bayern, except Sancho for 7mil and nothing else. Of course bayern will beat them, they have superstars nearly every season.They are just a good club, even the best in the world, everyone would play for them, if it wasnt for the salary structure and the money, even a CR7 or a Lionel Messi would have played for bayern, i know its frustrating for the other teams, and it gets boring when you dont have competition, but they build that, from scratch, they didnt force noone to give them what they have, they just earned it.

I think that for German football if they wanted to Close the gap between bayern and the rest it was neccesary that Dortmund won the title in that 18/19 season when Bayern won the title by just 2 points

Every year they should just give the title to Bayern and the rest of them can play for 2nd place to the last finish. Give all the Bayern players rest lol

Nice timing after Bayern winning 7-0 against Bochum.

Not only did they take their players. They took their coach too. 😂

I gotta sorta disagreee with the fact that if you're a young football fan in germany Bayern is your team. Most people don't like Bayern Munich and rather see them lose actually. Tho what there is, is respect for their work, most people respect them.

What I love most about Bayern is something you can buy with money: The unbreakable will to win EVERY fckng game

The biggest difference between Bayern and the rest of the Bundesliga is that Bayern has a straight winner mentality together with a solid economy since decades. The other Bundesliga teams lack ambition and they re too modest. They always consider themselves underdogs even in public. Thats why their best players leave, often to Bayern. Im a VfB Stuttgart supporter and i wish german football would be more tense at the top. But im happy that we have at least the flagship Bayern in the Champions League. An opponent who is feared by everyone and one who is almost always in your way if you wanna win it. Because of Bayern german football is no joke.

Bayern Munich has such a good board with really smart transfers, which is why they have such a good team and have been and are strong contenders for Europe every year except for 2019.

Your videos have that certain Charme about them. The music and editing style. I just love them

As a Bayern fan this was well-made. Thank you

Some important things to keep in mind: 1) other BL clubs poach players too, Dortmund does so more than Bayern. Bayern are just smarter. Just look at BVB's roster 1a) there are only two glamorous cities in Germany, Hamburg and Bayern. This makes recruitment much easier, many players take less money to stay in germany, and play in Munich, than live in like Manchester. 2) Bayern's dominance is not a problem within Germany. Only foreigners and media comment on it. It makes the league look bad, but internally, the other clubs are focused on competing against each other. 3) 50+1 is what makes the BL the best league. Clubs here are truly part of their communities, and ticket prices are incredibly low, even at Bayern. Premier League clubs have to do a lot of marketing to make themselves not seem like oligarch's play things. You feel the difference in the stadium too. Premier league games feel like a neutered experience. 4) the history of Bayern isn't explained very well in this video, Bayern were on the verge of Bankruptcy at one point, and fought their way to success. 5) we talk about PSG, ManC, and ManU... but what about Hull City, Wimbledon, and other clubs raided and sold off by their owners. The average owner does not turn their club into contenders. There are more disastrous owners than there are good ones. Many make Mike Ashley like good in comparison. I moved to Germany many years ago, hate Bayern as club, but not for the reasons in the video. Bundesliga is far superior for supporters than the premier league. In the Premier League, we are treated as customers and consumers. In the Bundesliga, you are part of the club, which is part of your community. The on-field product is amazing too ... and that's my Ted Talk. 🖤🦅❤

Bayern look like very perfect villain. very structured and planned. Seeing them losing is the pinnacle of footballgasm. However, it doesn't happen everyday.

Just saw Bayern give Bochum a 7-0 whooping

To be fair Bayern Munich don't really spend that much on their player's especially compared to other Premiere League teams or PSG and Barcelona or whatever, they just good in their approach of taking on good players and turning them into excellennt ones. Lewandowski, Kimmich, Gorgetzka, Neuer, Müller you name it they were all good players prior to their move to Bayern, which the club took note of by bringing them into their fold before all the hype around them, and with that turned these players into some of the best in the world which in turn the club profits of. If anything Bayern Munich if you like them or not is rather a good example of how to run a successful club in a smart and efficient way.

Bayern got the Olympia Stadium as a gift back then which gave them a massive financial boost in the 70's. Thats why Gladbach fell down and they dominated

I accidentally saw Bayern’s champions league journey in 2019 i think These guys are true champions Not only they won the UCL, they were able to beat their opponents well and truly fashion So many empathic wins not like 1 or 2 goals difference or with away goal rule

The thing is false that bayern buys the league. Most of the players they buy are free or with little money. That's called a great management. Unlike team in other leagues who buys over expensive players from their own league, have the guts to say Bayern a farmer and still wins nothing.

You knocked it out of the park with this one. Your writing, editing and narration are all on point, and your content is so informative and entertaining. Keep it up man! Thanks so much for sharing with us. God bless :)

Great video, with bits of insight and great points made...thank you, I enjoyed that :0)

I recognised 14 out of the 16 teams in the original table, I’m proud of myself

Only discovered this channel about 3-4 months ago but I’m really loving the content man, i especially like these football lore/in-depth analysis vids. I’d like to see more stuff like this but on different clubs/stories about different football leagues and historic teams of the past. Keep up the good work 🤝

Thank you for this amazing video! Great research for stunningly interesting facts about my favourite club.

This is one of the best videos i have watched, very informative

Such a beautiful story- A football club holding on to its culture and continuous hard work have achieved what they deserve after 20-25 years, a consistent no. 1 spot.

bayern has the thing only a few clubs can relate: They have many players that just want to play for that club for the rest of their career (when they are in their prime). Players like Müller, Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Robben, Ribery just to name a few. Their heart is with the club and bayern is in the unique position that they can achieve titles consistently. So if you are once there like Lewy, you won't leave to something like barca etc. because they just like the situation in Bayern (unless you get a little crazy like alaba or play bad and you get sorted out). The moon falling down on earth will happen more likely than Müller leaving his club lmao

This guy is a legend, love the videos❤️

how has this channel not blown up yet?? been watching for ages bro. Cant wait for you to blow up, you deserve it !

how they run Bayern should be tough in every executive MBA, as the benchmark of managing and organisation!

You missed missed two important points. In germany the social security contributions (health insurance, pension, care) are shared between the employer (FC Bayern) and the player (for example Phillipp Lahm). Both have to pay one half of it. Phillipp Lahm is born and raised in germany, has a german passport and his resident is munich- that makes him a german taxpayer. If Bayern wants to pay Phillipp Lahm a net salary of 12.000.000 € per year to make sure that he won´t leave the club to make 12.000.000 € somewhere else, things become expensive! If you only look at the taxes that Phillipp has to pay, let´s say 40 % of his income: 20.000.000 - 8.000.000 (40%) -------------------- 12.000.000 And employees in germany cost more than there salary. The ancillary wage costs are another 20 %. That´s the reason why Bayern had one real striker. They could use Lewandowski as number 9, Dzeko as his back-up and Moise Kean as talent but $$$$$$$$$$$. The other thing that Bayern don´t want to have another Breno, Valencia oder Landon Donovan case. Upamecano for example was perfect. Strong skills, already knows the league and the language. Same with Pavard. This is the real reason why Bayern bought Mario Götze from Dortmund instead of Neymar, although Pep wanted him. He got Thiago for 25 € by exit clause... Your list of players is long, but do you think Bayern didn´t wanted Diego, de Bruyne, Sané, Özil, Draxler or Dembele!?

*The edit of music and shot in beginning of video was lit 🔥 Well done 👏*

excellent job Sir. keep creating good content!

It's kind of sad to see Bayern getting shit talked because of their top quality management. The thing is Bayern is the only top club in Europe that can't afford superstars, so they are forced to buy in their own league to not be in debt like all the other top clubs. You can't blame Bayern for wanting what's best for them. It's just good business. People also seem to forget that Bayern helped Dortmund, their biggest rival, when it was in debt, because they wanted to keep the competition. That's just how Bundesliga work, because Bayern isn't the only one taking players or coaches from direct rivals. Just look at the coach switches this season. Leipzig coach to Bayern, Monchengladbach coach to BVB, Eintracht coach to Monchengladbach, etc. Bayern is just at the top of the chain. People also seem to forget that clubs like Leipzig and BVB failed to take their chances when Bayern were weakened.

"If you're a football fan in Germany, more likely than not, Bayern is your team." No, that's wrong, even according to your own numbers. When 23% of football fans in Germany are Bayern supporters, that means that 77% are not. Meaning, for a random German football fan, there's a 23% chance he supports Bayern and a 77% chance he doesn't. So it's more likely he doesn't support Bayern than he does. It's a relative majority, but not an absolute one by far.

I figured from your recent community post that you were gonna post a video along these lines 😂 keep up the good work

I’m relatively new to football and would love to see a video like one of yours on Thiago Silva. Love the content!

Bundesliga was great back in the 90's and 00's so many different winners it was a free for all each season on who would win the league. As an English kid growing up with the premier league dominated by Man United I was jealous of the German league.

8:35 take a second to appreciate that mad goal there

Great video and commentary! Thanks

anyone here after leverkusen won the league 😂😂 im a Madrid fan but watching leverkusen beating Bayern Munich was the best football moment that I am alive for

Tbf Dortmund should ve won in 2018/19 but they dropped the ball so hard

bayern was always the best club in the world. now, for the last few years they are also the club who plays the best football. they are on top of the football world. without 800 million debt.

Very impressive video. This must have been really difficult to make. I really hope your channel blows up soon. I'm sure it will.

51% rule isnt foreign since sweden has it too since 99.

We have a similar team in Norway which has a history of dominating Eliteserien (Norway's Bundesliga). It's the team from Trondheim called "Rosenborg" being champions 26 times since 1937. And they're the ones who have held the champion titlde for the longest. With the period between 1992 and 2003 being the time they dominated the longest. But they've won several other times, tho not consecutively. It's only recently they've seen a decline where a couple other teams have been able to win the series. Those teams being Brann, Molde, Stabæk, Strømsgodset, Vålerenga, and most recently from 2020 to now, the legendary team that Jose Mourinho has nightmares about, Bodø Glimt. Cities of the mentioned teams Rosenborg: Trondheim Brann: Bergen Molde: Molde Stabæk: Bærum Strømsgodset: Drammen Vålerenga: Oslo Bodø Glimt: Bodø (My home! Bodø Glimt førr evig!

I'm german and while I'm Brentford FC fan, growing up as a child seeing Bayern merch and stuff was pretty cool. They are doing a good job there to align themselves with pop culture, where you feel like it's part of something big.

Thinking this needed more information to tell and more time of course, but anyway to watch this video after a video about Tottenham, nice move

Your voice is really close to the Kevin tran's one ! Really good video as always tho

German Bundesliga should be the leading League in the world, best Stadiums, best Fan Attendance, healthy clubs etc.

0:5 Gladbach 🥱

Very well made video. Definitely earned my subscribe

Thanks for showing Kahn so often ❤️❤️

In Germany either you are a fan of Bayern Munich or you hate them.

Liverpool has always been my club since I was a little kid but I absolutely love how bayern is manage.

This is another nice channel about football alongside with HITC Sevens, Tifo Football, Copa90 Stories, Athletic Interest.

Make a video on Roberto baggio as many consider him the greatest Italian ever Great video as usual 👍👍

A key was first Uli Hoeneß, the Olympia stadium in the 70s and 80s and in the 2000s it was the Kirch group scandal

Wow, You are the only english speaking KZfaqr who can pronounce german names the (almost) exact right way 😉... I was especially impressed by "Borussia Mönchengladbach" 👌🏻...and by the way, the content of your video is also really good 💪

Signing rival players is one thing but the coach too! That's cold bro. 😆🤣😂

I am a huge Bayern fan and what I see in Bayern Munich as a whole is that they are a very smart and acomplished company. There timin,g discilpine, integrity,good ethics,humbleness are all factors from which leads to there success to date.

A point you absolutely forgot but should be mentioned: In the 70s when Gladbach and Köln were competing with Bayern, after the 1974 Olympia in Muinch they were almost gifted the Olympia Stadium. They didn't have to pay off debts like Köln or Gladbach and they used the saved money very very well with buying the best players from competing teams. This is WHY they got so dominant in the first place.

I think it'd be a lot of fun if you made a video exploring the career of David Villa

The first ad cut the flow of the video, I was hooked

Really good video, enjoyed it

Mat Hummels is actually Bayern youth player , he went Dortmund from Bayern

I started to like Bundesliga back when Dortmund was giving them fight with Lewandowski, rues and gotze ...but Bayern bought them too

Congratulations, you earned another subscriber

Your Pronunciation of Deutschland was very good

If EPL had 50+1 Manchester United would never have fallen so far...they could have been the Bayern of England cause they were just so dominant even in Europe though they won the UCL only once from 2000 they reached the finals in 2009 and 2011 after being champions in 2008 winning the EPL three times in a row.

What this video made me realize that makes Bayern more frustrating than other superteams is that once they lose they will gut their competition every time. We know they won't stop doing it because you can't argue with the results.

HEY! i have to say that you pronounced the players names pretty good!! im actually a Dortmund Fan but i dont hate the Bayerns because im living in Bavaria. Have a nice time guys

Juventus also won 9 Seria A's in a row. The 10th season they came 4th but still won the Coppa Italia. That was a major domination run too.

Bundesliga is so intense fast paced and competitive. Bayern munchen is just insanely competent and plans everything years ahead and quickly adjusts if it goes wrong

What needs to be mentioned is also that Bayern are not champions for nine years because the league is so bad but because they are so good. Bayern would dominate every league apart from maybe the Premier League in the same way. And if you look at the results they get every year against english clubs, maybe even that wouldn't be so certain.

What an amazing video thanks

Nice video man , but could you do the history of the German football?

The best club in the world.

Just know something, you are mad underrated

Really really good content!

Splended video ♥
