🚨 BREAKING: Konrad #Laimer had to be sedated by the Bayern physio before the flight back to Munich could take off because he kept running up and down the aisle on the plane. [#trustmebro]

A goal against Arsenal A goal against Atletico And he's not even 19.

#FCBayern players who are injured/doubtful for the match against Atlético: - Neuer - Urbig - Musiala - Olise - Saibari - Sapoko Ndiaye - Gnabry - Díaz - Cardozo The only players currently available who would not be playing out of position in the attacking positions: - Karl (18) - Binder (19), 15 pro mins - Assomo (16), 0 pro mins - Kane (33)

.@mano_bonke, @VTschirpke, October 9: "Jamal Musiala is expected back in the squad against Freiburg (October 25) Max Eberl, October 17: "It won't be enough for Arsenal. He will slowly be eased back, but he will be back in October"

Bara Sapoko Ndiaye's appendectomy recovery has not been documented officially but the expectation is that he will miss the Magdeburg and Der Klassiker, and almost definitely the match against Atlético. He would be highly doubtful the following weekend against Mainz. Most likely, he'll be back in the squad after the next international break.

It's D-Day. Today is a very important day for our club. We will feel the difference of today's result in the future. Players dream about winning this trophy, and there's nothing you and I can do to stop them from doing so. If Kane (or Olise, however unrealistic that may be) win the award, it's not just good PR for us from the aspect of fans and sale of merchandise, but more importantly it shows players either wanting to extend or to join us that it is possible to win the Ballon d'Or as a Bayern player, and that could be the difference between a player joining us or choosing another club, or him asking for more money to make up for this disadvantage. On the other hand, this can really screw us if Kane doesn't win. It shows the whole world, including Olise who's wanted by Real Madrid, that no matter how much you deserve the award, it's simply next-to-impossible to win it as a Bayern player. How can we attract the very best or retain our best players if we've proven how unappreciated they will be by the world simply for playing for Bayern? Sure, maybe we can win them by offering them higher salaries, but then we're going to raise our salary bill all over, even for players who don't have a realistic chance of winning the Ballon d'Or, people like Laimer for example. And if we're spending more money on salaries than we should be, then it means we're going to get weaker sporting-wise.

3-3 is no doubt a result that falls below expectations. We can blame the pitch, the extra 1 day rest for our opponents, the fireworks let off during the night, the form of the players etc. BUT: would the mood be better if we had gone 3-0 down and fought back to draw 3-3 at 90'?

Georgi Kabakov will be the referee for Viking Stavanger vs FC Bayern. Almost a year ago to the day, the Bulgarian received an indefinite suspension in his home country for inexplicably failing to intervene as VAR official when a player handled the ball with both hands before assisting. The ban was lifted a month later. He was then at the centre of further controversies and was omitted from appointments as recently as April 2026.

Today marks the 20th birthday of BayernForum.com, when it was made public and users started joining and posting the first posts. The community was already existing and had started off as a spin-off from a forum off a @BSchweinsteiger unofficial fan site, making the community older than when both Facebook and Twitter were made public. We are, to the best of our knowledge, the oldest international community of FC Bayern fans! A special thanks goes out to everyone who has made up this community, because without you it is just software. To many more decades!
