FCB Erlebniswelt opens to the public
It features all the trophies Bayern have won, it includes worthy tributes to Franz Beckenbauer and the other defining figures at the club, and it is of course Germany's biggest club museum. But the 3000 m2 exhibition at the Allianz Arena, bursting with trophies, images and stories, sets new standards for its lively presentation, interactivity and sheer volume of material.
Quite deliberately, the installation documenting the club's 112-year history is not called a museum, but rather the FC Bayern Erlebniswelt, literally 'world of experience'. The doors open for the first time on Friday 25 May. "I have to say: all credit to those involved. This is sensational from A to Z, a milestone, and a gem in the Bayern collection," a thoroughly impressed Uli Hoeness declared, "it's fantastic. I never imagined it would be like this."
( welcome to flawless Bavaria )

"Of course I am also happy that I and my brother Bastian finally can play together in a club."
Top scorer of the 3rd League
The 30-year-old ranks with Jahn Regensburg currently in sixth place in the 3rd League. Schweinsteiger has been successful launch of the league's top scorer.
He currently stands at twelve gates, making it the most dangerous attacker Jahn. Schweinsteiger played previously for SpVgg Unterhaching, VfB Luebeck, Eintracht Frankfurt and FC Ismaning.

Normally I wouldn't bother with reserve team news but given the player in question I thought it was worth sharing. This really delights me, not that I think they'll see much playing time together. ETA ontd_fb's Tobias Schweinsteiger appreciation post, for those who want to know marginally more about Schweini's older bruder.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory: Bayern's PR own goal

CNN) -- It was supposed to be a unique way to engage with their fans via social media -- but for Germany's most successful soccer club it turned into the ultimate public relations own goal.
Bayern Munich, who can boast 22 German league titles and have four times been crowned champions of Europe, revealed they would be unveiling a "spectacular" new signing on Thursday -- a snippet of news to excite any fan.
But when the announcement was made, on their official Facebook page, it turned out to be a new marketing tool that displayed users of the social networking site as the new signing.

With the prestigious Euro competition just months away, players, fans and pundits alike have all began contemplating and predicting what is to happen next summer.
While some predict another runaway victory for Spain's golden generation, many view the Germans as their biggest competitors for the crown. With a team stacked with household names and a coach with a renewed emphasis on attacking football, it seems if anyone is to challenge Spain, it would have to be Germany.
