The official news dropped this morning and Bayern Munich has hired RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann as its next coach.This development has been expected for days — if not weeks — but the final stages of this courtship operated at warp speed and were pretty much completed in what amounted to a little more than a day. Nagelsmann will take over for Hansi Flick, who will go down as the best shot-term manager in the history of the club — if not global football. With six (likely seven within a few weeks) titles to his name, Flick won a sextuple last season and is well on his way to securing a Bundesliga championship for this season.On this episode we discuss: The big news and how we got to this point. What we might see from Nagelsmann.Whether or not Nagelsmann will be allowed to be his own coach and use his own tactics, formation, players, etc. As always, thank you for the support!

With just three points left to secure the Bundesliga title, Bayern Munich slumped to a disappointing 2-1 defeat away from home against Mainz. Bo Svensson’s men performed a tactical masterclass that Hansi Flick could not counter, and how all eyes are on Leipzig tomorrow to see if they can win and keep up their title chase. Give INNN a big shout out, as this is his BPW debut! Unfortunately it comes on a day Bayern performed terribly, but it's still nice to get new voices on the pod! Enjoy this episode!

Bayern Munich downed Wolfsburg 3-2 in the Bundesliga, but the biggest news of the day would not drop until the postgame when it was leaked that Hansi Flick had let the club’s front office know that he wanted to leave. Obviously, this is not great news for Bayern Munich fans, who saw Flick salvage what looked like a lost 2019/2020 season and turn that campaign into a sextuple-winning thrill-ride. There probably was not another manager who could have overseen that run with such success and aplomb, but Flick pushed nearly all the right buttons for 2019/2020, while also having tremendous success in 2020/2021 as well. There will be plenty to talk about in the coming days, but check out our initial reaction at Bavarian Podcast Works as we walk through the following topics: How Flick was able to fix Bayern Munich in 2019/2020.How effectively Flick managed his roster and communicated with players — which built an immense amount of trust.How things got to this point. Some potential successors. As always, thank you for the support!
