After watching his team get trounced 4-0 at the hands of Bayern Munich, Tottenham Hotspur boss Thomas Frank came away thoroughly impressed with the Bavarians.
In fact, Frank thinks Bayern Munich is one of a handful of teams capable of winning the Champions League this season.
“We were obviously playing a very good team. Bayern in my opinion are one of the teams that probably are favourites to win the Champions League. They hit a good level, we didn’t hit a good level, that’s a bad combination but we will definitely learn from this one,” Frank told Tottenham Hotspur’s club website (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Bayern Munich was, indeed, impressive in the Telekom Cup victory over Tottenham. There is a long road to hoe before anyone can start thinking about winning Europe’s biggest tournament, though. As of now, Bayern Munich’s odds (per FanDuel) to win the UCL are + 1000.
