Bayern Munich enjoyed a successful 2021-22 season under the stewardship of Julian Nagelsmann.
The Bavarians lifted their 10th successive Bundesliga title last term after finishing eight points clear of their nearest rivals Borussia Dortmund. They also reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League but lost 2-1 on aggregate to Villarreal in the final eight of the competition.
The Munich-based club also lifted the DFL-Supercup during the 2021-22 season. Nagelsmann will look to build on the good work during the upcoming season.
Based on the players they have signed and are expected to sign this transfer window, here's how they can line up during the 2022-23 season.
Goalkeeper: Manuel Neuer
Manuel Neuer is among the best goalkeepers of his generation. The Germany international played 28 Bundesliga games last season, keeping 26 clean sheets. Neuer was included in the Bundesliga Team of the Season 2021-22 and is expected to guard the posts for the Bavarians next season.
Right-back: Noussair Mazraoui
Noussair Mazroui joined Bayern from Ajax on a free transfer. The Morocco international enjoyed a decent season in the Eredivisie last term, scoring five and assisting two goals in 25 appearances.
The 24-year-old defender was included in the CIES Eredivisie Team of the Year: 2021–22.
Center-back: Dayot Upamecano
The France international enjoyed a decent debut season at Bayern Munich after his £37 million (via Goal) move in 2021. As per WhoScorHe played 28 league games during the 2021-22 season, averaging 2.4 tackles, 1.1 interceptions, and 2.4 clearances per 90 in Bundesliga last season.
Center-back: Lucas Hernandez
Lucas Hernandez has been a consistent performer for Munich since joining from Atletico Madrid in 2019. He has played 96 games in all competitions for Bayern so far, scoring one goal. He will share game-time with Dayot Upamecano and Benjamin Parvard in the heart of the Bavarians' defence next season.
Left-back: Alphonso Davies
The Canada international is currently among the most promising footballers in Europe. The 21-year-old made 22 appearances in the league last term, registering three assists. Davies is likely to occupy the left side of the Munich-based club's defense next season.
Central midfield: Joshua Kimmich
Joshua Kimmich was among Bayern Munich's top performers last season, scoring three goals and assisting 11 more in 28 league appearances. His performances earned him a place in the Bundesliga Team of the 2021-22 season.
The German international is expected to play a key role for Der FCB during the upcoming season.
Central midfield: Ryan Gravenberch
Ryan Gravenberch joined Bayern Munich in a €25 million (via Goal) move earlier this transfer window. Gravenberch is currently among the most promising midfielders in Europe.
He played a starring role in Ajax Eredivisie success last season, scoring two and assisting five goals in 30 league appearances. The 20-year-old also won the Ajax Young Talent of the Year 2021.
Central-attacking midfielder: Thomas Muller
Thomas Muller enjoyed yet another stellar season with the Bavarians in 2021-22. The German international scored eight goals and assisted 18 more last season, winning the Bayern Munich Player of the Season 2021-22 award.
Right winger: Serge Gnabry
Serge Gnabry was among Bayern Munich's star performers last season. The Germany international registered 14 goals and five assists in 34 league appearances last term. Nagelsmann will expect the 26-year-old winger to continue his fine form next season. There are, however, rumors linking Gnabry to other clubs.
In that case, Kingsley Coman will start on the right wing.
Left winger - Lorey Sane
The Germany international scored seven and assisted seven more in 32 Bundesliga appearances last term. He will share his game time with Kingsley Coman on the left wing next season.
Center-forward - Sadio Mane
The Bavarians have recently secured the services of Sadio Mane for £35 million (via Sky Sports) from Liverpool. The Senegal international is among the best players in the world and is expected to lead the Bavarian's forward line during the upcoming season.

This team is perfect. Gravenbech and Musiala as subs for Goretzka and Muller with Gnabry as a sub for Sané. We're Definitely winning the Champions League

very immature line up by All Football The actual lineup will be :- pavard in place of Upamecano Goretzka in place of Gravenberch Coman in place of Gnabry
I think you don't watch matches Pavard may make regular small mistakes But Upamecano had made irreparable mistakes , notably in the 5-0 and 4-2 loss after that he was mostly dropped in favour Sule and Nianzou

away from goretzka replacing upamecano their line up is better than yours, you just went for names regardless of abilities and restrictions. coman perform better on the left wing so he better start there with sane moving to the right or even dropped if he can't get his form back. pavard is a good defender but he make disastrous mistakes, which is a quality that can be overlooked in a good RB but can't be overlooked in a CB, so upamecano is better there, also upa is more physical.
replacing gravenberch****
