Bayern Munich aren't the most popular 5 star team, and don't have the same superstars like Real Madrid and Barcelona, but I think they are right up there with the best teams.

In goal is Manuel Neuer, the second best Goalie in the game after Iker Casillas, a brilliant all-around Keeper. In defence, Lahm has an 87 rating making him the best left back in the game; he is good going forward as well as defensively.

The centre backs ratings aren't the highest, depending on who you use they are around 80, and Rafinha at right back is pacey and good offensively but can be weak in defence. Overall a fairly good defense.

Bayern are best in a 4-2-3-1, meaning 2 defensive midfielders, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Javi Martinez. But the best thing about Bayern is the attacking midfield trio: in the middle Thomas Muller, who has a good shot and is good at creating chances.

And on the wings, Ribery and Robben. Ribery plays on the left and is right footed, and Robben on the right and is left footed, meaning they can both cut inside and shoot rather than cross. They are both very fast, in particular Robben, and have overall ratings of 88 and 90 respectively. This pair together is known as 'Robbery'!

The lone striker is Mario Gomez. Not a lot to say about him, he is a good finisher and that's basically his job for the team.

Toni Kroos for Muller, Xherdan Shaqiri for Ribery and Mario Mandzukic for Gomez are all perfectly good replacements.
