O.J. Lewis8/2010: The State of Bayern Munich by Jeff Golub
October 17th 2010 16:29
It's Jeff Golub here, and I'll be writing for Player Central from time to time. Today, I'll write about the state of Bayern Munich, my favorite soccer team. Here's my list of who should start and their grades.
GK: Hans Jorg Butt Grade: D plus, he's bad, Bayern need a new Keeper.
LB: Holger Badstuber Grade: C minus, an OK defender, but shouldn't start.
LCB: Daniel Van Buyten Grade: C plus, he's not bad, but Bayern need more.
RCB: Martin Demichelis Grade: B, I think he's a good player.
RB: Philipp Lahm Grade: A, he's one of the finest defenders in the BL.
LM: Franck Ribery Grade: A plus, just a great player, nothing more to say.
LCM: Bastian Schweinsteiger Grade: A plus, he is a great passer and is pretty good all-around.
RCM: Mark Van Bommel Grade: B plus, the captain is good, but fouls way too much
RM: Arjen Robben Grade: A plus, one of Bayern's best, without him this year, it hasn't been working out.
LS: Thomas Muller Grade: B minus, he's good now, and has lots of potential.
RS: Ivica Olic Grade: B minus, pretty good.
Now you've seen the list and you've looked all that talent, so why are they in tenth? I think it's because of the playing time of Contento, the benching of Demichelis, the inconsistent play of Van Buyten, the weakness at Goalkeeper, the injury of Robben, and now Van Bommel is injured. Things might get worse unless Kroos does something good. If things stay the same in Bayern, they'll end up in sixth.
