After German side win, defensive midfielder Joshua Kimmich defends former coach and says he ‘didn’t miss dressing room’
the exit of Julian Nagelsman From Bayern Monaco took the players by surprise. After winning of 2 to 0 from the Germany in friendly with the Peruthe steering wheel Joshua Kimmich and the sock Leon Goretzka he denied any kind of conflict with the former manager and clarified that the club’s board’s decision took the entire cast by surprise. Thomas Tuchel instead he was hired.
“No (he lost the dressing room). I wouldn’t say so. The reasons (for his sacking) are that we haven’t won enough and we haven’t had much success. We’ve only won five of the last 10 games. We haven’t performed well, but I can’t say that I missed the dressing room. I have undergone coaching changes and nothing indicates that this happened. We are surprised” Kimmich said.
However, the party spoke critically of the change of command. “Of course it’s weird. Ultimately that’s the way business is, no love, no heart. We have to learn to deal with and live with the decision,” she said.
Leon Goretzka took the opportunity to praise the former coach. “I’d be lying if I said what happened in the last few days didn’t affect me. It was extremely difficult. We had a very close relationship with Julian. I probably saw more of him than my family. It was a shock,” he said .
THE DISMISSAL
Naglesmann has had just three defeats in 37 games this season and a guaranteed place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, a competition in which Bayern are unbeaten. In announcing his resignation, former goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, chairman of the club, said the team had played “less attractive” football since the second half after the World Cup break. In the same official note in which he announced his resignation, the club announced that Thomas Tuchel has been hired as the new manager.
Nagelsmann’s departure had already been taken for granted by the German press a few days ago. Although the numbers for the current season are not the most dramatic, Bayern’s performances have not been satisfactory. The 2-1 defeat against Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday, about a week after the victory over PSG in the Champions League, was not well received internally, also because it took away the Munich team under the leadership of Alemão, who weighed the decision to fire the 35-year-old coach.
In addition to demanding more flamboyant football, the coach has experienced relationship crises within the club. According to the German press, he had disagreements with goalkeeping coach Toni Tapalovic, who was accused of leaking information from the coaching staff and ended up being sacked. Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who is not playing as he is recovering from injury but is a team leader, has publicly criticized the sacking.
NEW COMMAND
Thomas Tuchel’s debut in charge of Bayern Munich will be against Borussia Dortmund, in the match scheduled for Saturday, at 1.30pm, at the Allianz Arena, for the 26th day of the German championship.
