Four games without a win. That was at the FC Bayern Munich not for more than 20 years. In the Bundesliga, Munich are in a crisis. In the table you are only fifth. If it were over now, it wouldn’t even qualify for the Champions League pass…
Can coach Julian Nagelsmann (35) get his team back on track or will club bosses Oliver Kahn (53) and Hasan Salihamidzic (45) pull the ripcord prematurely?
Ex-world star Lothar Matthäus (61) firmly assumes that Nagelsmann’s job is not at risk. “I neither believe that Julian Nagelsmann is shaking, nor that Thomas Tuchel, for example, is being discussed,” writes the former Bayern star in his “Sky”-Columns: “That would also be the next admission of guilt after being so convinced of this coach.”
Matthäus continues: “Nagelsmann was not given a five-year contract for nothing and paid a lot of money for him. This is the longest contract term that a coach has ever received in Munich and that is why everyone will try to get out of this situation together.”
Nagelsmann is the most expensive coach in football history. Bayern have transferred 25 million euros to RB Leipzig for him. His contract with Bayern runs until the summer of 2026. Despite the current earnings crisis, Matthäus Nagelsmann continues to believe that he is “the right coach for FC Bayern Munich.”
“Yes, it is definitely the most difficult phase in the still young career of this great coach and I still believe that he will turn things around and draw the right conclusions,” said the German record international.
The fact that club boss Kahn immediately backed him after the 1-0 defeat in Augsburg was “exactly the right thing and what Julian now needs from the club.”
In addition, Matthäus makes the stars of Bayern responsible. “I don’t think he lost the dressing room, that the team is even playing against him or that they want to get rid of him. I rather believe that the chances and the performance are being handled a little negligently again at the moment. This may have started when the players were allowed to fly to Ibiza after the bankruptcy in Mainz last season. And the parallel to this now is that you were a little distracted by the outstanding start to the season.”
Does he have what they need?

Bayern got off to a dream start with three wins in a row and 15 goals. Everything looked like the next undisputed championship. But then came the burglary. Matthew misses the bite of the stars. If you try to “win in gentle gear”, then it’s not enough for any opponent.
