Bayern may be able to salvage some pride

Thank God Bayern pulled themselves together and beat Frankfurt 4-0 on Saturday! After the disastrous (both tactical and team) performance at Nu Camp against Barcelona, only an emphatic win would have saved Klinsman.They now need to have a face saving (2-1 would do!) win on Tues night in the return leg against Barcelona in the Alianz Stadion in Munich, and then concentrate on finishing first or second in the Bundesliga.In the off season, they need to sort out their defence, hope their new Russian signing can fortify the midfield, and bring one or two more super stars to match the quality of Ribery.Goal Keeper: Buffon, Frey or Manuel NeuerDefence: Rumour is Cannavaro is interested. Breno needs to be loaned out, both to gain experience, and to see if he can in fact make it in Europe...so far has shown little promiseMidfield: the new signing is fineForwards: teh signing from Hamburg may not be enough as cover to Klose and Tony. sad to see Podolski leave but to be fair he's been treated poorly in the sense that he was never given enough regular first team starts to prove his worth to Bayern. Good luck to him at his beloved Koln next year.....wrong choice in my view....he should have moved to EPL.
