Many fans think that Bayern's thickest thigh is Levan, and some fans say it is Müller, but Neuer is definitely the thigh of the Bundesliga giant. Bayern goalkeeper Neuer will be out for weeks due to injury, which may affect Bayern's league results and give Dortmund the opportunity to chase points behind him.
Since the 2018-19 season, Neuer has played 112 Bundesliga games for Bayern, while the team has a 77% win rate, averaging 2.4 points per game, conceding 1.0 goals per game and keeping 37% clean sheets. Neuer missed 11 Bundesliga games in the same period, during which Bayern's winning percentage dropped to 46%, averaging only 1.7 points per game, conceding 1.2 goals per game, and keeping 18% clean sheets.
The data is cold, but the most telling thing, the Bundesliga giants' backline needs this "goalkeeper" Neuer, because Bayern is good at high pressure, which must be accompanied by a wide range of attacking goalkeepers, otherwise it is easy to be countered by the opponent, because the center-back will leave a large open space behind him after high pressure, which is Neuer's "activity field". It can be said that Neuer's goalkeeper attributes have completed Bayern's high-pressure tactics and good results.
