Bavarian Podcast Works: Weekend Warm-up Show Season 3, Episode 36 — Reacting to Julian Nagelsmann’s German national team call-ups; Bayern Munich’s reported incoming and outgoing transfer list; The best and worst draw for the Champions League; and MORE!
•
Craziness reigns supreme for Bayern Munich and the German national team.
While things are finally starting to normalize after nearly a year under Thomas Tuchel for Bayern Munich. The attack looks dangerous, the midfield is controlling games, and the backline has been sturdy.
Things...are good.
As for the German national team, the more things change (getting rid of some mainstays), the more they stay the same (leaning on some old heads to lead the way).
Given all of that, there is plenty to talk about, so let’s get to it:
- Discussing the roster selection.
- The closer we get to the EUROs, the more there is a strong reason to believe that Julian Nagelsmann is going to show the same self-destructive, impulsive tendencies he sowed at Bayern Munich.
- What can go right and what can go wrong for Germany during the games against France and the Netherlands.
- Ranking the best and worst possible draws for Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
- A stalemate in the Alphonso Davies negotiations?
- Bayern Munich potentially looking to sell seven mainstays....and spend €200 million this summer?
- Recapping some of the latest transfer rumors including those linking Bayern Munich to VfB Stuttgart’s Chris Führich, FC Augsburg’s Ermedin Demirović, Borussia Mönchengladbach’s Manu Koné, and Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi.
- What a freaking banger of an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm...let’s discuss why I loved it so much.

30:51|The Bundesliga Rundown is coming to an end.Words can't express how thankful I am to everyone who has listened, interacted with me, and been part of my journey to explain the ecosystem around FC Bayern Munich and the Bundesliga.My last episode won't be about a team, but a player: Jakub Błaszczykowski — known in Germany as “Kuba” — is my favourite Bundesliga player of all time. Not because he is better than the likes of Harry Kane or his compatriot Robert Lewandowski, but because his life offers inspiration.From the worst possible odds imaginable to a remarkable career, Kuba's story is about redemption and refusing to let your background define you. It's a story about life. It's a story that makes me love this beautiful game.Thank you ALL!Bavarian Podcast Works — Edges and Underdogs, a BuLi Action Show: End of season wrap-up
