After a year without the championship, FC Bayern won the title again. Decisive was the newly signed wing tandem of Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, dubbed Robbery by the tabloids. Also important: Dutch coach Louis van Gaal (LvG) integrated youth academy products Thomas Mueller and Holger Badstuber into the first team; both went to the World Cup in South Africa after the season.
After the championship, Bayern also won the cup final against Werder Bremen 4-0.
