well ribery was gone but also schweinsteiger who is the architect. think dortmund without hummels or juve without pirlo. dismal!
it was a matter of compound holes: a hole in the defense (boateng), a hole in the midfield (schweinsteiger), a hole on the left lane (ribery). terrible!
javi martinez can be covered by luiz gustavo who is not as good but can manage, provided schweinsteiger is there next match. though i think boateng has one more suspension date from red card. oh no, he doesn't-- which is great.
and kroos better get some hypnotherapy so he can get back in form. that dude can kick but today he was pffffffff!!
ps- bayern got temporarily better when robben got back to playing on the left at the start of the 2nd half (he must have gotten a talking-to) but later oh cack.
