FC Bayern Munich: Can Mathys Tel now really nine? | Sports

Striker discussion at Bayern |

Can 20-Mio-Tel really nine now?

Uli Hoeneß (70) had started the center forward discussion at FC Bayern in “BR”: “One thing is for sure, I think we’re missing a nine.”

Is that really true?

Coach Julian Nagelsmann (35) on Tuesday evening in Pilsen on the nines discussion: “In the end we don’t have the classic nines and then it’s my job to control things so that we compensate well. Regardless of whether the Honorary President or anyone else comments on it…”

Why is (almost) no one talking about the “Lewandowski of the future”, whom Bayern signed for 20 million euros (plus 8.5 million euros possible bonuses) from Rennes in France: Talent Mathys Tel (17)?

So far, however, he has only been allowed to run a little. And still delivered!

► In the Bundesliga, Tel was in the starting XI once and was substituted on twice. A goal in 97 minutes.

► In the DFB-Pokal, he attacked once from the start and scored a goal in 63 minutes. In the Champions League he only has two joker appearances (42 minutes, no goal).

Problem: Tel often played on the wing instead of as a tip.

Will coach Julian Nagelsmann (35) test him as a nine on Wednesday evening in Pilsen?

After Choupo-Moting came in as a joker in Dortmund and Tel sat on the bench for 90 minutes, Sky expert Lothar Matthäus (61) had demanded: “Before the season, Julian says: I expect ten goals from Tel. Then he has to let him play.”

How is Tel supposed to score the ten goals if he rarely plays?

Wednesday could be Tel’s big goal day. The weak opponent Pilsen (first leg: 5:0) would be the ideal opportunity.

Nagelsmann yesterday when asked by BILD: “Of course he is a candidate. He does a lot of things very well, but there are also things that he needs to improve on.”

Especially since Jamal Musiala (19/Corona) and Serge Gnabry (27/knee bruise with capsule injury) are out, Kingsley Coman (26) has just returned from a torn fiber and Leroy Sané (26) could use a break. A few goals would give the young Frenchman Tel a boost – and Bayern would have peace in the annoying striker discussion.

Sven Ulreich (34) will be in goal. Manuel Neuer (36) is out with minor problems after a shoulder joint contusion. In addition to Neuer, Musiala, Gnabry, the long-term injured Hernández (bundle tear) and Sarr (knee surgery), Alphonso Davies (21/bruised skull) and Matthijs de Ligt (23/adductor problems) are also absent.

Brazzo sick too! According to BILD information, Hasan Salihamidzic (45) has vocal cord inflammation and can hardly speak. The sports director wants to see how he is doing on the day of the match and then decide whether he will follow him to Pilsen.
