"If there's space, you go for goal - it's as simple as that. Basically, everything we do with the ball has to put us in a better position to score, regardless of whether it takes five, 15 or 30 passes. What we want to avoid are situations where we get caught outnumbered. Then we have to switch play, remain patient and wait for the right moment."
"If we're pressed high, we look for a way out and attack. If the opposition is sitting deep, we find solutions in tight spaces - with passes, runs and movement. For me, that's the whole point of possession,"
"Kompany seems to recognize the culture in Munich. The expectations are not just for Bayern to win, but do so in style with a clear emphasis on scoring goals. Kompany's side is doing that better than any team in Europe at the moment and the end product is an elite team and entertaining product for the fans each week. 2026 could be a serious year for the trophy cabinet if Bayern can polish out a few rough marks in the coming months."
Vincent Kompany moved from a controversial appointment to a major success at Bayern Munich, guiding the club toward an invincible domestic campaign and genuine Champions League contention by 2026. The team emphasizes scoring and stylish football, with every possession designed to improve scoring position, whether via short or long sequences. Kompany prioritizes avoiding being outnumbered, switching play, patience, and finding ways out under high press or tight solutions against deep blocks through passes, runs and movement. The side currently produces elite end product and entertainment, though minor weaknesses appeared in November and December.
