3-0 loss against Bayern seems bad, but during these big games it would help to give some stats or tell us about the flow of the game. Obviously Bayern was the better side, but did you get a shot at goal; what was the possession and passing rate; were there things that you thought might work against Galatasaray; is there anything you could build upon?
Next two games are at home against the 'lesser' teams - that's where you need to get your majority of the points: tough cookie...

I didn't make any specific notes about stats, but there was a time, 2-0 down after 11 minutes, where it looked like it could become quite nasty. So it was pretty much damage control from that point, then conceding a third just before half time, before things generally improved after the break. I could perhaps have scored one in the second half, but I wasn't THAT close, really. 3-1 would have been a more fair result than 4-0 though, if we would have seen a 4th goal in the game.
I don't know if I can take anything and use for the Galatasaray fixture. The last three league games have been pretty awful, so improvements must come across both competitions. And my next league game is played at Celtic Park.
