Just a year ago, Bayern were 14 points behind Borussia Dortmund during the winter break, and the title race was far away; Just a year ago, the quarrel between Hoeness and Louis van Gaal had grown out of control, with panic and internal undercurrents surging in the team.

Hoeness scolded Van Gaal in the live TV broadcast room to ignite the war between the two, and although the rift was then turned into a jade silk in a glass of red wine in Cluj, the rift was difficult to heal, and a few weeks later, the two turned against each other again.

It was a difficult time for Bayern, and the relationship between the unruly Louis van Gaal and several Bayern oligarchs was almost incompatible.

In retrospect, the "uprising" of "correcting Kraft" was simply an insult to Hoeness and Bayern's leadership, and it was this "rectification" that strengthened Bayern's determination to buy Neuer.

Unlike last year's war-torn and internal and external troubles, the theme of this year's Bayern Christmas is "Peace, Joy and Egg Pancakes". For the red card for Ribery.

"Frank has brought us so much joy in the past," Hoeness said, "and now I would love to take him in my arms and say; 'Hey, you've done something wrong, but we've got to have Christmas first!' ”

That's the way it is for Bayern now, everyone is at peace and working towards the same goal. The famous "Lone Ranger" Robben was once placed on the bench after his comeback, and the Dutch superstar did not complain at all, because he knew that it was the opinion of the sea handsome.

Hoeness concluded: "The coach is not only responsible for the team's competition, but also for the harmony and stability of the team. People shouldn't just come out and yell at the coach when the team is doing badly, but also remember to thank the coach when the team is doing well. They have always been in charge. "At Bayern, almost no one wants to believe that the marshal has a contract until 2013.

Such Bayern is Dortmund's biggest opponent on the road to defending the title.

FIFA publicly informed this Saturday morning that the Swiss Football Federation may face a ban. If this announcement is finally implemented, then Basel FC will not be able to participate in the Champions League.

The first leg between Bayern Munich and Basel was originally scheduled for February 22, with the second leg taking place on March 13. If Basel is unable to participate, Manchester United, who finish third in Group C, will automatically be promoted to the knockout stages of the Champions League against Bayern.

FIFA's notice to the Swiss Football Federation is a stern warning to the Swiss Football Federation, which is due to a legal dispute between Swiss First Division club Sion and UEFA.

Sion was disqualified by UEFA for using six ineligible players in this year's Europa League play-offs.

Sion strongly protested UEFA's decision and appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, but lost the case.

FIFA has a lot of headaches over this dispute. Although the Swiss Football Federation has banned the players, FIFA has demanded a more severe penalty of losing Sion in all the matches that the six players have played, which involves 16 points from the Swiss league.

The deadline given by FIFA is until January 14 next year, and the Swiss Football Federation must cancel these points in Sion.

In today's press release, FIFA said: "If this decision is not executed by the due date, the Swiss Football Federation will be automatically suspended. "Once the Swiss Football Federation is banned, Basel will of course not be able to play in the Champions League, and Basel's third-placed Group C will automatically move up one place to replace Basel in Bayern Munich.

The third place in Group C happens to be Manchester United, so that the old enemies of Bayern and Manchester United will be reunited.

And if the Swiss Football Association is banned, the Swiss national team will also be involved, so the German team's original plan to prepare for the European Championship and prepare for the warm-up match with Switzerland is also facing cancellation.

The warm-up match is scheduled to take place next year's Easter Saturday on May 26 in Basel, but of course things may not have gotten so bad that the FIFA notice may just be a warning to the Swiss Football Federation.

In an interview with Sky Sports on Saturday evening local time in Germany, Loew gave an interview about the first half of the Bundesliga, but unexpectedly talked about former national team captain Ballack.

Since May this year, the relationship between the two has broken due to his announcement that he will no longer call Ballack into the German team, and now, he has personally expressed his intention to reconcile with Ballack.

Loew said on the show: "All of us involved in this, we should have done a better job of addressing this. What happened before, and the current state, is not satisfactory. All the people involved in this matter have not solved this matter well. ”

Ballack is a well-known name in German football, having been a regular member of the German team since 1998, having played 98 times for Germany, winning the 2002 World Cup runner-up, the 2006 World Cup runner-up, and the 2008 European Championship runner-up, captaining the German team in 2006-10.

It can be said that for a decade, Ballack was an iconic figure in German football.

Loew's feud with Barak has a long history. As early as Euro 2008, Ballack was dissatisfied with Loew's demotion of his friend Frings from the main team to the substitute, and publicly criticized Loew in the newspaper "Le Monde", and also clashed with team leader Bierhoff. After that, with the efforts of all parties, Barak reconciled with Loew and Bierhoff.

On the eve of the World Cup in South Africa, Ballack, who was playing for Chelsea at the time, was trampled on by Kevin Boateng in the FA Cup final and withdrew from the World Cup campaign for Germany due to injury.

Lahm took his captaincy and later publicly expressed his desire to remain captain, challenging Ballack strongly.

Although Loew stood up in time and criticized Lahm, claiming that Lahm is only the "captain of the World Cup" and Ballack is the captain of the national team.

However, since then, Ballack has never received a call-up to the national team.

In May this year, with the support of the German Football Association, Loew officially announced that Ballack would no longer be the captain of the national team, and the national team would no longer recruit Ballack.

The German team's Ballack era officially came to an end, and Ballack, out of anger, commissioned an official statement from the newspaper Bild accusing Loew of "hypocrisy".

At this point, the relationship between the two was completely broken down, and although the German Football Association offered Ballack the opportunity to participate in a friendly match with Brazil in August, as a farewell ceremony for Balakron, Barak refused.

In the 2002 World Cup, Ballack was banned for two yellow cards and failed to participate in the final with Brazil, and the German team finally lost to Brazil and won the runner-up, which should be an eternal regret in Ballack's heart.

If Ballack agrees to this farewell match, maybe he will make up for it a little, but unfortunately it backfired, things have developed to this point, and it is difficult for Balak's arrogant personality to participate in this friendly match as if nothing happened, and he has never been able to play against the five-star Brazil, a showdown, this regret will probably accompany him for the rest of his life.
