This is the worst squad management in a game I have ever seen in my life as a Bayern fan. 17 odd years of watching this team and I have never seen a game where we made 0 subs. And for that to have happened with our low depth, our injuries, and it being right after the break… I am actually dumbfounded, fucking speechless.
I am a very vocal and firm believer that a coach must always be given time to grow his team and we must stop being reactionary… but this is not even up for debate, it’s beyond shambolic, beyond disgraceful. He saw the team run on absolutely empty with the risk of injury going higher with each minute they were on the pitch; he had absolute quality to come on against FUCKING KÖLN, and he chose to bring on nobody.
I have never been this stunned by a coaching decision in my life, and I’ve gone through coaches that were legitimately fucking atrocious like Klinsmann.
Least dramatic Bayern fan
Calm down. We won.
Improve your reading comprehension, my frustration has nothing to do with winning or losing or with the manner of our play.
Van Gaal also once won a game without brining in any subs:

Yes, I came across that. The match didn’t strike my memory. Regardless, the reason why this is far more noticeable/egregious is because of the fact that our thin squad already has suffered various injuries, and the manager had just spoken prior to the game all the concerns facing the squad with regards to fatigue/injury as they were coming back from international duty.
what made you start supporting the widely successful trophy winning club Bayern munich as you live in the USA?
Here’s your answer:
I live in India, not America. I was 11 years old when I saw Oliver Kahn play in the 2002 World Cup. I fell in love with the player, the position, and the sport. I dedicated myself to the sport and actually managed to play it to a high level on a semipro level in my city, and it all began with Oliver Kahn.
I soon learnt he played for a club named Bayern, and that their primary color is red, which is my favorite color. I didn’t know much about them or how successful they are or anything, but I began to follow them for those 2 reasons.
Growing up in India, most around me were fans of the English clubs and the Spanish giants. I was mocked for being a Bayern fan and taunted during the mid 00s. I began to intently follow and understand how football worked in 06-07, a season where we finished 4th and did not qualify for the CL. The first club I saw retain the Bundesliga title was Borussia Dortmund. I saw Getafe almost destroy Bayern with 10 men, Zenit whoop this club, and Barça annihilate us long before I saw the club make a CL semifinal appearance. All while being surrounded by the kind of people you insinuate I am with your smug little condescending post, who had a field day with the club I chose from my heart.
Your extraordinarily poor assumption only serves to highlight your shitty mentality of feeling a sense of superiority based on some arbitrary bullshit. So, you can take your veiled insinuation that I am a glory hunter and your garbage attitude that international fans aren’t as sincere as local ones and do things with it that I can’t truly spell outright, but if you aren’t as daft as your initial post suggests, you’ll know exactly where to shove it.
