Vincent Kompany became the first manager to win his first three away games since Pep Guardiola in 2015/16 and Bayern has scored 29 goals in his first eight games in charge.
Now, Bayern is at the top of the table. Do you think this is not good enough?
Kompany is one of the good coaches in the Bundesliga right now. IMO
Kompany has done his job well and hit back at critics who said the job at Bayern was ‘too big for him.’
Frankly speaking, this record sounds extremely strange considering how Bayern usually dominates the Bundesliga. It is clear that these are specific conditions for setting a record (a new coach does not appear every year), but still.
As for Kompany, it is difficult to judge how good or bad he is - Bayern should take the Bundesliga title in any case, and the quarter-finals of the Champions League are almost nothing to draw conclusions about. Last season, Dortmund were in the final, remaining in 5th place in the Bundesliga.
Time will tell whether Kompany is a good coach or not for Bayern as this is his first season. But it doesn't seem right to say that Kompany hasn't had much of an impact on Bayern when a great coach like Pep was struggling in the Premier League, Slot Ball who was so dominant in the Premier League was eliminated from the Champions League and Bayern beat Leverkusen by a landslide when Xabi was at the peak of his career. IMO
It’s a project. I don’t expect Kompany to win the treble and dominate every opponent in his first year in charge.
