Bayern Munich is currently scrambling to get players to fill in for different positions in the team to help get them by while other players work on their recovery. The midfield is one of those short in players, and Bayern went and loaned out one of them. He then went on to become the Man of the Match against big Manchester City.

It is perhaps unwise to make grand conclusions about any team two games into their season, but when Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur meet on Saturday, the teams will be telling a tale of two very different rebuilds.

Tottenham Hotspur beat Manchester City 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday as Thomas Frank got a huge win against Pep Guardiola’s error-strewn side. City have now lost seven of their last 13 Premier League games against Spurs, with Guardiola losing more games against them than any other side.
