Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac believes his team have "restored ease and confidence" after a difficult spell and says this year's Bundesliga is "more balanced and stronger" than the previous edition.
The former Frankfurt boss has faced criticism as his first season at the Allianz Arena has not gone according to plan. He's confident those struggles are in the past, however, per the club's official website:
"I feel we're the FC Bayern from the start of the season again, that we've restored our ease and confidence—and that the lads are fired up to give it everything and put up a fierce fight against Borussia Dortmund.
