Does the Bundesliga have a Bayern problem?

It's never exactly a hot take to suggest Bayern Munich might come away as Bundesliga champions, and that's very much the case for this season once again. With Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen both in transition, might this be the season where Vincent Kompany's side surpass even the lofty heights of Pep Guardiola's time at the club?

Kevin Hatchard makes his debut on the show to discuss that prospect. Plus, Donyell Malen and Paulo Dybala link up three times to lead Roma to a 4-0 thrashing of Fiorentina. Can Dybalen, as some are calling them, take them to Scudetto contention? Plus, Fenerbahçe reach the Champions League for the first time in nearly two decades. Just how significant is that for the Süper Lig?
