Sammer feels in-form Bayern are “currently number one in Europe”

The former BVB defender has been left very impressed by the Bavarians who have won all 10 of their competitive games this season.

Matthias Sammer deemed Bayern Munich the best team in Europe right now, in an interview with Sky Germany.

In an interview with pay-TV broadcaster Sky , the record champions’ former sporting director particularly praised the work of Vincent Kompany.

“They are untouchable thanks to their game plan and individual quality; they are in top shape, have speed, creativity, and technique. 

“For me, the symbiosis of coach and team is currently number one in Europe. They have improved even further – even off the ball,” said Sammer, impressed by their dynamism.

He continued to say the Bavarian giants one of the most complete teams in Europe, but warned that even such a run of form won’t last forever. 

“Now they have to compensate for that [form] over the next few months. At some point, there will be a point where that might not work so well.

“Then it’s all about winning a game with personality and aura on a bad day,” the 57-year-old emphasized.

Regarding the role of Vincent Kompany, Sammer said of the Belgian coach has a maturity beyond his years. 

“He acts like a 55- or 60-year-old – calm, confident, and clear. That is how he conveys stability to his team on and off the field,” he added.

To Sammer, Kompany’s leadership at Bayern has developed a clear structure, tremendous playing strength, and tactical discipline.
