I think you are right Kompany will get a lot of attention as Bayern Munich new manager. He will be praised when they win and criticized when they lose as we are looking this situation already. It is surprising that team chose him to replace Thomas Tuchel maybe because they did not want to be rejected by other top managers. This is big step up for Kompany and he knows there is a lot expected of him. He has tough job as he is supposed to win two big competitions. If he does well at start it will make things easier. I think Kompany will focus on winning Bundesliga first which is a more realistic goal, and then try to achieve more.

The coach will get two things, the first is praise and the second is criticism. The coach must be able to realize this that before they sign a contract with a team they must realize that they are also risking themselves. I would even say that when playing well the coach must still be criticized to make them more motivated. Bayern Munich I think did not have many choices after getting rejections from several coaches. Finally they appointed Vincent Kompany as their coach in the hope that Vincent Kompany could bring them to a better game. This is also a risk they took and I would not be surprised if Kompany looks like a failure they will immediately look for a new coach.

It's business, and I think what is commendable about Dortmund's management is that they are always able to maintain the stability of the team even though they always sell their mainstay players, I don't think many can do something like that. And I also don't have high expectations for the Dortmund team, I think they will remain the same as in previous seasons, they will build a makeshift team just to be able to enter the top 4 and get a ticket to the Champion League.

Maintain their stability within a good range is something others need to learn from Dortmund, even after sales of key players, they still finish decently and not lag behind the way other team do when they have key players sold of, indeed the management of Dortmund has got the business IQ and understands it too well that they know how well to place their team and always getting that which they want both with finance, team depth and trophies. Last season they appear they were really aiming at trophies so they had most of their players kept to achieve that but somehow it didn't work as planned.

Borussia Dortmund is a team that can maintain its consistency well even though they sell many of their valuable players. However, it is very unfortunate if they are only able to maintain their good performance but cannot get an achievement. Apart from business and also being able to appear consistently after selling many valuable players, they also need an achievement to present to their supporters, that's all that is lacking from Borussia Dortmund. I am sure they can achieve all of that as long as they can be serious about getting it, because what I see now is that they seem indifferent to it. I hope they can be more serious in the coming seasons.
