Matthäus raves: Bayern are the outstanding team in Europe | OneFootball

Lothar Matthäus expresses his admiration for FC Bayern's performance after their decisive victory over Eintracht.

FC Bayern is in absolute top form this season. Ten official matches, ten victories - even in the Bundesliga top match in Frankfurt, the record champions did not falter and won decisively 3:0. TV expert Lothar Matthäus was impressed by the Munich team's performance and currently ranks Vincent Kompany's team as Europe's benchmark.

"I didn't need a new statement. They have been showing their performance from the beginning, since the Supercup against Stuttgart," explained the 1990 World Cup winner on Sky. And continued: "Whether Bundesliga or Champions League - they are currently the exceptional team in Europe for me." For Matthäus, it is clear that Bayern is currently the most complete team in terms of gameplay and tactics on the continent.

The decisive victory in Frankfurt was the next proof of this. Bayern took the lead within seconds, then controlled the pace and rhythm and allowed hardly any real chances. Thus, the Munich team went into the international break with the maximum yield of 18 points from six Bundesliga games. The lead over Borussia Dortmund is already four points. Also in the Champions League, the Munich team leads their group after two games and underline their ambitions to go far this season.

There is noticeable satisfaction in the Bayern camp about the successful start to the season - without allowing complacency. Centre-back Jonathan Tah explained after the victory in Frankfurt on Sky: "We try to get better week by week, learn something from every game and play better in the next game. You could see that again. It's not easy to come here and deliver such a game."

Captain Manuel Neuer also highlighted the growing cohesion and clear game idea: "You get used to the processes and it's not a question of who is on the pitch and who comes in. When the players play, you know what to do," said the goalkeeper about the second season under coach Vincent Kompany. After the confident performance, Neuer spoke of a "confident away win", which shows how consolidated the team currently is.

After the international break, Bayern now faces decisive tasks. On October 18, the classic against Borussia Dortmund in Munich is on the agenda. Four days later, they play in the Champions League against FC Brugge, before the Bundesliga away game in Mönchengladbach on October 25. At the end of the month, the record champions then play in the DFB Cup at 1. FC Köln.
