On the first bonus show of the week, Manu and Stefan sit down to breakdown Bayern Munich’s relatively easy 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen in the Last 16 of the Champions League. Xabi Alonso’s side struggled to put up much of a fight without Florian Wirtz, leading the pair to question his tactics, the club’s signings this season and whether the Spaniard may call it quits at the end of the season. They then go on to discuss Bayern’s impressive performances over the course of the tie and how Vincent Kompany has managed to get the better of his greatest domestic foe, leading some to question whether Bayern really are in for a shot of the Champions League this season.
