Things would have been so different if these events have gone the other way round in the Bayern Munich history.

Bayern Munich fans have recently had some good news to cheer about off the pitch as Hansi Flick has been appointed as permanent manager. Moreover, Thomas Muller is also reportedly close to renewing his contract and extend his stay in Bavaria.

This was a welcome sight from the everyday transfer rumors and guarantees from various sources. Overall, things are moving slowly in football, with no matches scheduled soon, and players are not involved in training sessions at the club.

There is growing uncertainty about the current campaign as Bundesliga has been indefinitely suspended till 30th April. While the situation is bleak around the globe, let us think about a parallel universe that will help us to distract from the ongoing crisis for some time.

Instead of making a list of the best forwards in Bayern’s history or which player Bayern will buy next, let’s have a look at four different events from in the last 15 years and ponder about how things have gone if those events had gone other way around.

How would Bayern’s history have been different if “x” hadn’t happened or what if it did happen? These are meant to be fun and a break from the boring transfer rumors, so here we go!
