Midway through March Julian Nagelsmann had Bayern Munich on track for the treble - fast forward two months and Thomas Tuchel could end up with no silverware whatsoever.
The Bavarians opted to make a switch in the dugout, ending the young coach's relatively short tenure at the Allianz Arena. Nagelsmann lasted less than two seasons as the hierarchy decided they could upgrade their coach and appointed a Champions League winner in Tuchel.
The German though has struggled to produce with the Bavarians and they now face the prospect of relinquishing the Bundesliga for the first time in a decade. That is on top of exits in Europe and the domestic cup - leading to an unthinkable trophyless season for the aristocrats.
