Thomas Müller criticized parts of his own team after FC Bayern Munich’s brutal and embarrassing last-minute knockout in the second round of the DFB Cup against third division club 1. FC Saarbrücken.
“The other topic here is – we will discuss this again internally – why our fans are rightly angry,” said Thomas Müller, who gave FC Bayern the lead in the first half, on ARD. “Regardless of the game, we have to show a different face and show our fans the necessary respect when they crowd the block away.”

At Sky he added: “It’s not necessarily about the game or the result. What’s not possible at all is that only three or four players understand how to respect the support. I don’t know how many hundreds of them Kilometers came here during the week.” You have to give something back to the fans. “Of course it doesn’t work that way,” Müller concluded.
What did he (SPOX grade 4.5) mean? Some FC Bayern players left the pitch immediately after the game without congratulating the Saarbrücken players on their victory or facing the Bayern fans. Some fans then left the block and asked the boards to speak to the Bayern players who were still on the pitch.
A small group around Müller, Mathys Tel and Joshua Kimmich actually went to the angry supporters. The situation quickly calmed down again. But the house blessing in the Bayern dressing room is likely to be all the more lopsided.
