Bayern Munich is cruising and heading into another Champions League, so let’s take a look at the factors that have powered the team so far.

Harry Kane has been a beast, the squad is driven, and — by and large — personnel decisions have worked out well. Let’s get into all of that and more on this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works Show. This is what we have on tap:

• Why has Harry Kane been better than ever? (Less need for him to work in build-up, better complimentary players around him — losing Sane and Coman was massive, more aggressive attacking game plan and sometime more direct, truly the focal point
• Is it possible that Harry Kane will stay at Bayern Munich? He is not dismissing the possibility.
• Yes! We avoided a #BayernKaren situation. We are rejoicing this in Philadelphia.
• Tying up some loose ends — let’s check in on Leroy Sane, Kingsley Coman, João Palhinha, Paul Wanner, Mathys Tel, and Adam Aznou.
