Bayern Munich laid down a marker to the European rivals with their win over Tottenham Hotspur.
Last time out, this team ran berserk in England, subjecting Tottenham Hotspur to a 2-7 routing in front of their own fans at White Hart Lane. If this kind of form contnues, a lot of teams will not wish to face the Bavarians in the UEFA Champions League this season.

They've had good showings in the tournament in seasons past, although the glory continues to elude them since Arjen Robben nudged the ball over the line in Wembley against Borussia Dortmund. However, they now look like real contenders for the prestigious trophy and it's time rival clubs start taking them seriously in Europe.
The German outfit currently sits at the top of the Bundesliga table with 14 points from six games and they've recorded big victories in their two UEFA Champions League games so far - a 3-0 battering of Crzvena Zvezda and the decimation of Spurs in North London.
Having a very in-form Lewandowski, a rejuvenated Coutinho and a hot Serge Gnabry in their ranks should be enough fire to spark their hunt for glory in Europe this season. What is more? The team is playing with all the anger of a wounded lion at present, and if this continues, the Champions League trophy will remain theirs to lose.
