In the second round of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich drew 0-0 with Schalke 04 away from home. After the match, former German national team player Basler criticized Bayern Munich's performance on a podcast.

On his podcast "Basler ballert," Basler explicitly criticized Bayern munich's 0-0 draw with Schalke, calling the Bundesliga giant's performance "sleepy football."

Basler believes that Bayern Munich's ball possession rate of over 80% means little, as the team struggled to create enough goalscoring opportunities.

"This type of football is no longer working, and Bayern Munich will have problems with it in international competitions," said the 57-year-old Basler.

Furthermore, he criticized coach Kompany's decision not to start Harry Kane and Michael Olise. In Basler's view, both should have started and could have been rested later if Bayern Munich had taken the lead.

Basler also spoke about young player Lennart Karl, who had the opportunity to start. The latter started against Schalke and was substituted in the 57th minute.

In Basler's opinion, Karl's performance was "very arrogant" and "presumptuous." Basler even believes that if the 18-year-old does not change his style of play, he could face problems at Bayern Munich in the future.

However, it is unlikely that Basler's criticism will cause much uproar on Säbener Straße. Kompany stated after the match that, although the team did not get everything right for all 90 minutes, they still showed good overall performance. The relevant data also supported his statement.

Furthermore, Kompany also explained why Kane and Olise were not in the starting lineup. However, Basler apparently was unable to accept that explanation.
