2 goals, 1 own goal. The classic defender's hattrick.

Hinteregger going for Nr. 4 right at the end there.

It would be such a shame for Davies to stay in Germany. It's Bayern, yeah, but still.
Does his emergence make Alaba expendable now? Can certainly see him being a target for Man. City given their issues at LB and also Real Madrid.

I think that Alaba really is a great central defender and boss of defense... :D

You can imagine Boateng being the one benched once Lucas Hernandez is fully fit again.
Hernandez needs to wait on injuries... - knowing that team just a matter of time...

No. Because Alaba and Hernandez are both real left footers - they nearly never pass with the right. It is not really a difficulty to play a right foot on both sides of the central defense as a lot of the right footers learn to use their left fairly well (as their is a lot more right footed players) but two left footers make a problem. Good Build-up is very important for the defense at Bayern.

Yea that's true, need so have a right footer. Would be interesting regarding Alaba then when everyone is fit, if that will ever happen.

How did this goofy Klopp wannabe loser from Huddersfield get a major job in Germany? Terrible manager. Crazy how far incompetence can take you if you have the right contacts.

How do you define "major job"? :wenger:

I actually don't think Wagner is a bad coach, he has been overachieving this season with a crap squad.

Time for revenge. I won't accept anything less than 9-0.

BT have decided to dedicate the last couple of minutes to figuratively sucking-off Klopp :lol:

Can we maybe not leave their strikers wide open in the box? Please?

Only 2 home wins so far... small sample but I think home advantage is completely gone without fans

We're lulling them into an entirely justified sense of security.

Tuning in for the second half. xG is 0.00 v 2.62 at half-time. Fair to say Mainz haven't really got going yet? :D

I was convinced that Poulsen was offside for the 3rd goal. I've just seen the replay again and surely his foot is slightly off.
