(Reuters) - After criticising Bayern Munich's transfer policy in an outspoken interview, Robert Lewandowski did his talking on the pitch against Anderlecht on Tuesday to kickstart the German side's Champions League campaign.

The Pole's forthright comments suggesting Bayern no longer compete in the transfer market dominated the build-up to the Group B game, with the club further unsettled by Thomas Mueller talking about a possible move away and reports that Hoffenheim's Julian Nagelsmann is lined up to succeed Carlo Ancelotti as manager.
