Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno feels that Bayern Munich's dominance in Bundesliga is "boring and sad" and that he does not see anyone knocking them out off their pedestal anytime soon. Bayern Munich are strolling towards their eighth consecutive Bundesliga win with Hansi Flick's side leading the points table by 7 points. After a slow start to the season, the Bavarians picked themselves up with grace and cemented their top spot in the league with a double over Borussia Dortmund. The Robert Lewandowski-led side just needs two wins from the final four games to book their German top-tier league title.
