Key men for Vincent Kompany

Harry Kane is the first name that comes to mind when one thinks about a key player for Bayern this season. The English striker scored more than 40 goals in his debut season at Die Roten. Kane is likely to continue this scoring form, but Vincent Kompany will have to make sure these goals convert into victories for Bayern.

Apart from Kane, Joao Palhinha will be a key player for Die Roten. The Portuguese midfielder will provide the steel and bite in the midfield, which Bayern have missed since the departure of Javi Martinez. Palhinha will help Die Roten to concede fewer goals and help the team keep more clean sheets in the upcoming season.

Finally, I am expecting Kim Min-jae to have a big season with Bayern. The South Korean was brilliant during the first half of the last season. However, Ruckrunde was a real struggle for him. Despite the interest from Italy, Kim Min-jae is determined to get back to his best in Munich and repay the faith shown by the club. After a year of adaptation and a proper pre-season, Kim Min-jae is set up for a strong campaign with Bayern.

Several other players will have crucial roles to play for Bayern, but if these three players have a good season, then the club is likely to end the campaign with silverware.
