But Bayern managed to take the first place last season. Yes, Dortmund got the same number of points, but Bayern scored more goals and eventually won the Bundesliga. This kind of competition between Dortmund and Bayern happens regularly, so I wouldn't say Bayern are in some kind of crisis. It's just that this season has been difficult for all clubs.
Last season, Bayern Munich did not experience a crisis, but it was Bayern Munich's management that made them almost fail to win the Bundesliga title and fail in the Champions League due to the dismissal of the coach in the middle of the season. Behind Bayern Munich's domination in the Bundesliga, Dortmund has had the chance to win the Bundesliga League several times. But the mentality of Dortmund players is not that strong. It often slips when it is in the first place, and this also happened again last season.
But I see that Bayern Munich is no longer the same as the old Bayern Munich. The management is very arrogant and ambitious. if you don't get maximum results, the coaches who handle Bayern Munich are like robots controlled by management. If Thomas Tuchel is not careful in fixing the team, and maximizing the potential of the players, he could have the same fate and lead to dismissal.
