The Bavarian giants have been very unlucky in the past few years as far as the UEFA Champions League is concerned. After winning the competition back in 2001, the team has reached the final two times and has lost out on both occasions.
First it was in the 2009-10 season, when the Germans were downed 2-0 by Italian side http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan in Madrid and secondly, it was last season when the Bavarian giants had to taste defeat against Chelsea, this time in front of their home fans at Allianz Arena.
The team reached the final of Europe’s elite club competition for the second time in three years which is a huge achievement, but the side has been unable to finish its task in the final stages.
The Reds have once again strengthened their squad with some noteworthy additions in the form of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tom-c35214 Starke, but the question still remains whether the money they have
spent will land them the UEFA Champions League title this time around.
Even though the Germans have a star studded squad for the next campaign, they may not have a very good chance of winning the competition next year. This is not because they are not strong enough, but many other teams across Europe
have invested millions in their teams to make sure they become genuine contenders for the title.
The likes of Manchester City, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, Real Madrid and the emergence of Paris Saint-Germain will put doubts over the progress of Bayern Munich in the competitions next season. At the moment, many would agree that PSG have a genuine
chance of winning the European competition because of the sensational summer they have had.
The French side have already spent more than a staggering €150 million to include the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Motta-c34897
and Nene already in their team speaks a lot about their ambitions and with a manager of the calibre of Carlo Ancelotti at the helm of affairs, a lot can be expected.
Chelsea, on the other hand, have also been on a summer spending spree after winning the UEFA Champions League last season. The London based side have included the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marko-Marin-c24198 to their already impressive
side and it can definitely be said that the team are genuine contenders to win the title for the second time in a row.
Manchester City have surprisingly had a quiet summer by the standards they have set in the last few years. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 won the English Premier League and promised to strengthen the team for the next season and except for the
signing of young http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jack-Rodwell-c17462, there has not been much.
So it can be said that there are many teams set to compete for the UEFA Champions League title next season. It can also be assumed that the usual front runners, teams such as Manchester United, Bayern Munich, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and Real
Madrid, will be given a run for their own money when the season begins.
