Neuer on Bayern’s dream start: “It’s down to hard work” | OneFootball

FC Bayern is fully on the road to success so far this season. After the 4-0 victory over Werder Bremen, Manuel Neuer emphasized: “It’s a lot of hard work.”

The current season could hardly be going better for Munich. In the Bundesliga, they are at the top of the table with 15 points from five matches, and their Champions League campaign also got off to a successful start with a 3-1 win over Chelsea. In addition, Vincent Kompany’s team secured a victory in the first round of the DFB-Pokal as well (3-2 against Wehen Wiesbaden).

The record champions are clearly in top form. When asked about this, Manuel Neuer explained after the 4-0 win over Werder Bremen on Friday evening: “It’s a lot of hard work, I think we’ve had a good start to the season. We benefit from being able to go into games with confidence, and I believe our opponents have a bit of respect for us—I don’t want to say fear.”

Neuer continued: “With the right positioning and the right runs, we can hurt our opponents.” He then went on to talk about one or two players from the Bayern squad.

Among them was Harry Kane, who has been in outstanding form since arriving at FCB. On the comparison between Kane and Robert Lewandowski, the 39-year-old said: “Everyone knows how good Lewy was for us, and of course Harry is just as good. What he does for us is extraordinary, and this record is unique.” The Englishman has already scored 100 goals for the German record champions.

Tom Bischof also celebrated his starting eleven debut in the Bundesliga for FC Bayern. Neuer is also more than convinced by the youngster: “He always gives everything in training and is a special player who can be very dangerous in the penalty area. With his debut in the starting lineup today, he has taken a big step forward—for himself and for the team.”
