The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 international asks the mental strength of the Bavarian giants’ stars, fearing that the side may have difficulty after their previous final defeats
Former German legend Dietmar Hamann has accepted that he is worried about the confidence of Bayern Munich players as they are preparing for the UEFA Champions League final.
The Bundesliga club will play fierce rivals’ Borussia Dortmund at Wembley on May 25 following their final defeats to Inter Milan in 2010 and Chelsea FC on penalties last term at the Allianz Arena. He claimed that he was concerned
that past experience of back to back losses in the final will weigh on the mind of the team members.
He stated that in the last three years Der FCB have finished runners-up twice against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786. He further added that Inter and the English Premier League side were not as strong as the BVB are at the moment. As
a result of this, he feels that Die Roten will face problems in the upcoming clash.
"In the past three years Bayern have lost two Champions League finals against Inter and Chelsea," the 39-year-old German was quoted as saying in an interview.

"Those two sides were nowhere near as good as Dortmund are now. Therefore, I wonder how deep the scars will be," he added.
Hamann won the Champions League with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 FC in 2005. Therefore, he is positive that the Bavarian outfit will find it hard to keep their mind off their past failures and as a result might lose again.

"If as a tennis player you have won at Wimbledon, you know next year what you need to do," he continued. 

"Bayern know that they've played for the title twice. You have doubts. Now they've got an excellent team, and the pressure is on to finally deliver," the former player finally concluded.
He further added that if you are a tennis star and you win the Wimbledon title, you should know what you will require to do next term. Bayern are aware that they have played in the final twice and have doubts about their chances.
