Hamann: Bayern has made the Champions League similar to the Bundesliga. All teams understand what they will face when playing Bayern.

After this week's Champions League match, German star Hamann praised Bayern's performance and momentum in his Sky Sports Germany column. He also talked about Dortmund, which suffered a defeat, still on the right path.

Hamann wrote: "With the victory in Paris, Bayern sent a strong signal! For the first time in a long time, European football once again regarded Bayern Munich as a club with a say in the Champions League title race."

"Bayern's victory over the defending champions is also a psychological achievement and a signal to all other teams: if you want to win and go further, you have to beat us first!"

"In the Bundesliga , Bayern is so dominant that many opponents go to Munich not believing they can take anything away. It is no different in the Champions League. Everyone who comes to Munich knows what is waiting for them there. Bayern has set its mark with the victory in Paris. "

"I also believe that they can win against Arsenal in the next game, but facing the Premier League leaders will be another test. Arsenal relies on its strong defense and in Haven't conceded a goal in the Champions League yet. "The suspension of Luis Dias in London is a loss, he scores and assists important goals, he is an incredible doer and is vital to the balance of the game. But Lennart Carr has integrated well into the team and Kompany will figure it out."

"The excitement is right now and he is doing a great job." The team and the whole club support him. But we have to see what happens when Bayern has to endure a setback. "Winning 16 games in a row is extraordinary, but it is only November and the season is still long. Although everything is good at the moment: it must not be blinded. If Bayern can also sign a long-term contract with Pamecano. Upamecano is improving every year and is even better under Kompany. He is currently one of the best central defenders in Europe. Finding his replacement will be extremely difficult and costly."

"Dortmund's 1-4 loss in Manchester was a small setback in their very good season. This defeat showed Dortmund how far they still need to be if they want to have a place in the big leagues in the long term.}

"Dortmund is currently approaching its limit. Their defense is very solid, Schloterbeck has grown into an absolute leader, Anton and Bensebaini have done a good job, and Emre Can has also returned after injury. But their forward configuration Relatively weak, although they introduced Fabio Silva, they still need to add another offensive player. "

"Dortmund's lineup is very good, but no one expects them to enter the Champions League semi-finals or compete in the 34th round of the Bundesliga. But they are one of the few teams that can cause trouble for Bayern this season. Dortmund may need to win three of the remaining four games to do so, but I expect they will have to compete in the play-offs. "For Leverkusen, the away win against Benfica may be extremely important. It's already slipped away. They ideally need three points in the pre-Christmas games (away to Manchester City and at home to Newcastle), but that's already going to be very difficult and I predict Leverkusen will seal the deal in the final round. 24th."

"Frankfurt has one of the toughest schedules. Getting a draw with Naples is a success, but I don't think they can get into the play-offs."
