Fantastic acquisition. He's such a good player and will be incredible for your boys.

that lineup

i'd see martinez beeing roatted with boa and benatia as cb, while thiago / vidal sharing some time with rode/kimmich

Very good sign at a reasonable price! Gz

But i still think he is such a ridiculous and his hair style is a badtroll.

since we were talking about possible line ups here is mine

neuer
boateng benatia alaba
javi thiago
robben vidal costa
lewa müller

i know its missing lahm, just a suggestion
possibilities are endless now and pep should be able to rotate enough

this year we wont fail on the last few meters of the season
cmon bayern

worst. lineup. ever.

it's so bad i almost wanna say not even pep could have come up with this one but yeah, realistically...
we might just see them play like this some day and as long as it's against darmstadt or ingolstadt it won't even matter...

you could at least provide some arguments....

ok. three defenders and no wingers with defensive capabilities, only martinez to drop back in central defense where he's too slow anyway. thiago playing behind vidal, wingers that tend to cut in in addition to two strikers crowding the box and exposing the wings even further.
sry, i thought it was so obvious, especially for a bayern fan but there you go...

its only some suggestion for maximum offensive power ^^
i will always prefer a proper 4 man defense in other games of course

vulnerable wings in defense, you make a fair point there
however pep played something similar a lot and the pressing on the flanks was really good tbh
our overall defense in the last third in front of our own half is horrible though with pep, in any line up so far

still dont think javi is too slow for anything, not cause i am too biased, but i already saw him keeping up with the likes of bale, welbeck or reus who are very fast players

thiago behind vidal, both of them, especially vidal, will appear everywhere wherever you put them so whatever
also vidal was fielded a lot and played brilliantly as no 10 in case you didnt know
personally i would like to have his power as high up as possible

costa isnt cutting in so far, but is going for crosses instead as he did in the games so far
he is doing quite nicely
and my boy will play somewhere around robben as he always does when they play together, imo no prob

actually its a good thing that we are even able to discuss this, so many possibilities
