Tuchel let off the hook by Dortmund.

They hired him to win a treble...

Bit of a shitshow at Bayern.

They're now out of both knockout tournaments since Tuchel arrived, and only have a slender lead at the top of The Bundeliga due to Dortmund bottling a 3-2 lead vs 10 men Stuttgart in the 97th minute.

Mané fighting Sané last week, and players like Mazraoui are speaking publicly about their lack of game time.

It's not a United squad like at City. They all think they should be starting. City's players accept rotation. Cancelo didn't, so Pep sent him packing.

Kahn expected to be sacked too

Bayern lost 3-1 away to Mainz. They were 1-0 up.

Dortmund can go top if they beat Frankfurt at home later. Knowing them, they'll probably bottle that.

3-0 up...

Still time to bottle it, but looking good.

[O 20,759]

Dortmund went top for 1 week and threw it away. They have become like Spurs.

I don't think any club will stop Bayern again unless they are backed with serious financial clout. Dortmund and Leipzig are selling clubs.

[O 20,759]

Spurs deserve a point.

Romero with the ASSIST.

[O 20,759]

Leipzig have given Dortmund hope.

It's over to them to win their final 2 games. 

You can never trust Dortmund though.

Away to 14th placed Augsburg and home to 9th placed Mainz - if they can't win those games for the title they don't deserve it tbh 

Nagelsmann firing looking worse by the week too

Augsburg are only 3 points clear of the relegation play-off. That's the potential banana skin.

I agree though. They can't let this opportunity slip.

They were robbed vs Bochum the last time they were in this position. Clear penalty.

They need to go out and blitz them today.

Dortmund 0-2 at home needing a win to secure the title.

They should actually fold as a club if they bottle this.

Bayern 2-1 up now Dortmund need a miracle still 2-1 down at home!

Worse bottle job than Arsenal!

Edit: Ended 2-2 at Dortmund lost on GD the cruelest way. They had a shite April lost 1 and drew 2.

Premier league and bundesliga are becoming similar with respect to dominant teams. Bayern are too well run and powerful compared to the rest. They will dominate well into the future.

71 points to win the title is a bit of a joke though 

[O 20,759]

Horrible for Haller. Who knows what would have happened had he scored his penalty...

But yeah, 71 points is a very low tally for a 34 game league. Bayern being poor has made it a more enjoyable top 4 battle though.  Union Berlin were the wildcard this season, and Frieburg almost secured CL football too. Something different.

It's crazy how low down clubs like Stuttgart, Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen are these days. They were competing for titles and cups in the 00's.

Bayern should bounce back next season with a new tactical system built around Kimmich who is playing some sensational stuff under Tuchel.
