Bavarian Podcast Works S5E27: Ten reasons why 2023 will be a MUCH better year for Bayern Munich

So 2022 is over and it’s time for a retrospective. Bayern Munich had a very mediocre 2022 which saw a dearth of success domestically and internationally. While the club won a 10th consecutive Bundesliga title, an early exit in the Champions League and poor showing by Bayern players at the World Cup mean that 2022 leaves a very bad taste in the mouth. However, if thing go right, 2023 could be a LOT better.

In this episode, Tom and INNN talk about the following:

• Recapping how 2022 went for Bayern Munich, especially the many (many) lows.
• How injuries, illness, and outgoing transfers hurt Bayern last year.
• How, paradoxically, Bayern’s upcoming Champions League opponents (PSG) ended up having a great 2022.
• Was 2022 worse than 2012? No, but it still feels bad.
• Moving onto 2023 — do we feel optimistic about what’s coming?
• Here it starts. A looooooooooong list of reasons why Bayern will have a much better 2023 compared to 2022. If you listened to the whole thing, then can you name every single one?
• How the uncertainty around Manuel Neuer’s future makes it hard for the club to sign a proper replacement for this season.
• Closing off our first podcast of our calendar year on an optimistic note.
