The FC Hollywood outfit has been unable to win the Bundesliga title for the last two years and the Bavarians will be hoping to end their trophy drought in the upcoming campaign.
Borussia Dortmund has won back to back Bundesliga League titles defeating Bayern last year and Bayer Leverkusen the year before that to the trophy. The domination of Dortmund has troubled the Der FCB camp and caused restlessness
among them. Die Roten has been trophy less for a second consecutive year.
Die Bayern is the most successful club in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 with rich traditions. They have won the league a record 15 times. Other than the last two years, they have won the national title at least once every two years. Therefore, the people
at the club are not used to not winning the German league.
Moreover, Bayern signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in the UEFA Champions League final. This might be due to
the fact that they lacked depth in their squad and most importantly in their striking options.
Therefore, Allianz Arena captured the likes of Mario Mandzukic, Dante, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Claudio-Pizarro-c9324 and Mitchell Weiser for a collective transfer fee exceeding £30 m in this summer’s transfer window.
They bolstered their side heavily on all fronts and laid off the players who were surplus to requirements such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ivica-Olic-c17399 and Nils Petersen on loan to Werder Bremen. As a result of the tinkering of the squad, the team seems
stronger and more balanced than before. Meanwhile, they also made changes at the board.
Matthias Sammer, the former Champions League winner as a player, left his position of technical director of German Football Association (DFB) to become the new sporting director of Bayern in July 2012.
The Champions League finalists are also in the market for a holding midfielder and are following the progress of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468. They are looking to add cover for every position in the team. However, the German club
are not willing to break the bank for either player.
Martinez has a buyout clause of €40 m which is not a good value for money for Bayern and in the case of Bender, Bayer Leverkusen want to retain the youngster so the Munich side can’t do much unless they allow them to talk with
the 23-year-old.
The FC Hollywood outfit now have three top class strikers. The forwards scored 56 league goals last year collectively and will be expected to fire their team to the Bundesliga title 2012-13 season even if they contribute 50 plus
goals.
Moreover, Bayern will expect http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bastian-Schweinsteiger-c7374 to regain fitness and help them mount a title challenge with Dortmund looking to go for a hat trick of league honours.
Furthermore, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dante-c10236 is an exceptionally good signing and will make the Allianz Arena defence much stronger and he can replace Jerome Boateng as the latter have been inconsistent in big matches for both club and country.
To add to that, Shaqiri will provide a healthy competition for places should http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arjen-Robben-c6521 or Franck Ribery loses their form or get injured.
Finally, Bettor.com thinks that Bayern will come out as German Champions after a dry spell of two years as they have strengthened their team on every front.
