Harry Kane’s in unstoppable form and now leads Bayern into another Champions League night. Markus and Jan Åge Fjørtoft break down the big talking points ahead of Matchday 3: Bayern’s charge, Leverkusen’s incredible home record under Kasper Hjulmand, Dortmund’s resilience, and whether Frankfurt can take advantage of Liverpool’s poor run. Key Talking Pointsinclude how Bayern "manage" their thin squad, Leverkusen’s balance under Hjulmand, Dortmund’s adaptation phase under Kovač, and Frankfurt’s unpredictability vs Liverpool’s "crisis".

Harry Kane says it himself ,“one of the best games of my career.” But what’s behind his evolution at Bayern Munich? And reaching legendary status already at Bayern, will he extend his contract? Markus and Jan Åge Fjørtoft dive deep into a weekend that defines the Bundesliga right now, from Kane’s quarterback role, to Leverkusen’s unstoppable start under Kasper Hjulmand, to the European scoring race between Kane, Haaland, and Mbappé. Also, Jobe Bellingham has had a slow start at Dortmund, while Wirtz is still finding his feet at Liverpool. How long do players need to adapt? What's normal? Meanwhile, Said El Mala looks to be next breakout star from the Bundesliga, and Burkardt's record at Eintracht is proving all his doubters wrong!

Vincent Kompany’s Bayern look unstoppable — 25 goals in six games, two record-breaking scorers, and a team evolving before our eyes. Luis Díaz’s blistering form and Harry Kane’s ruthless finishing are powering a side that’s scoring for fun — and they’re still missing Musiala and Davies. Neuer looks world-class again, Pavlović keeps growing, and Kompany’s structure already feels complete. Can they go unbeaten this season? Meanwhile, Leipzig’s next generation, Bakayoko, Rômulo, Diomande, Nusa, are part of a revived RB Leipzig team that has found back to its roots. Eintracht also boast the youngest squad in the league, but they're finding consistency hard to come by. What can they accomplish this season? At the other end, Gladbach’s struggles deepen: no wins, no sporting direction, and no clarity about the future. Markus and Jan Åge Fjørtoft discuss this, while reflecting on the key moments from a weekend where, Stuttgart, Cologne, and Leverkusen all strengthened their early-season form, and Hamburg secured a statement win against Mainz.

The Champions League is back — and Germany’s four representatives are all in the spotlight.

Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern beat Chelsea on Matchday 1, and now they head to Pafos looking to keep the momentum going. And why "boring" Bayern is a credit to Kompany...

Dortmund’s 4-4 chaos in Turin showed both their firepower and their fragility. Niko Kovač has them winning domestically, but can they find the balance in Europe when Athletic Bilbao come to town?

Leverkusen rescued a late draw at Copenhagen thanks to Grimaldo. Now PSV visit the BayArena in what feels like Kasper Hjulmand’s first real test on the continental stage.

And then there’s Eintracht Frankfurt. Burkardt, Uzun, and a new-look attack swept Galatasaray aside, but Simeone’s Atlético in Madrid will be a very different challenge. With Atleti’s defence already looking shaky this season, could Frankfurt be primed for another statement?
