"Three starting-caliber center-backs seems like it should be one too many in a two-man central defense. But not this season at Bayern Munich. Newcomer Jonathan Tah has arrived this season and settled into the XI, displacing one of last year's starters in Kim Min-jae, but that does not mean that three's a crowd. You might even say - three's Kompany."
""This group we have is special," Tah said in a Sky Germany interview this month (as as captured by @iMiaSanMia). "Everyone brings something to the table in their own way. That's important because everyone can learn something from each other. We all want to improve - we want to grow. And then we have a coach [Vincent Kompany] who has played in this position as well. So yes - it feels really good.""
Bayern Munich fields three starting-caliber center-backs this season: Jonathan Tah, Kim Min-jae, and Dayot Upamecano. New signing Jonathan Tah has secured a starting spot, displacing Kim from last season's regular XI. Tah emphasizes that each defender contributes distinct strengths and that teammates can learn from one another. Vincent Kompany provides coaching experience at the position, enhancing development. Tah and Upamecano appear likely to form the primary pairing, while Kim remains at the club and does not seem intent on leaving. The configuration currently offers depth, internal competition, and a harmonious environment.
