This past weekend, Sami Khedira stated that Bayern Munich will be "hunted" by Real Madrid, and other top European sides after their performance and victory at the Champions League. He was quoted saying, "Bayern Munich have to know that their international rivals intend on bringing back the balance. They are the hunted now." Those are some pretty strong statements from the German midfielder. Kind of ironic that he's German too, talking about hunting a German side. The majority of Real's confidence is a result of their new hire, Carlos Ancelotti, who had a solid season with PSG, and should only do better with a better side in Real Madrid.
However, these statements aren't unwarranted. Bayern Munich has cemented a position above all squads as the best club side, surpassing the likes of Barcelona, Man U, and Real. They easily have the most well rounded squad, with quick wingers, decisive forwards, and a strong defense. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them make a run for a Champions League repeat, especially with a Barcelona side whose defense is diminished and a Real side who is just too fancy in my opinion. However, if we get to see a match between Real and Bayern, I surely won't miss it.
