Kimmich? Goretzka? “Playing for yourself”
Lothar Matthäus continues to be critical of coach Thomas Tuchel at FC Bayern despite the decent performance in the Champions League quarter-finals at Arsenal. The record national player also takes a stand on players like Kimmich, Goretzka and De Ligt.
The record national player doesn’t change his mind that quickly: Lothar Matthäus continues to be critical of coach Thomas Tuchel at FC Bayern despite the decent performance in the Champions League quarter-finals at Arsenal (2:2).

“One game wasn’t enough proof for me that Thomas Tuchel wasn’t making the team – and one game wasn’t enough proof for me that he was making the team,” said Matthäus at Münchner Merkur/tz.
Rather, what matters in the final spurt is the stars’ own motivation, Matthäus speculated: “There’s this pot of handles that shines, every player wants to feel this shine up close – in London in six weeks. Now, in the Champions League, the players are playing for yourself, for this team.”
Players like Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka and Matthijs de Ligt in particular would “play for themselves,” said the 1990 world champion, “because they want to go to the European Championships, they want to win the Champions League and they also want to be in good positions in contract negotiations.”

Matthäus still believes in the CL title for Bayern
Matthäus therefore even believes that the ailing Bayern will triumph in the premier class before the second leg on April 17th (from 9 p.m. in the LIVETICKER).
“Why not? ManCity against Real is the early final. Bayern would face a team in the semi-finals that might be even stronger. But you saw what was possible when the spirit was there,” said the 63-year-old.
In addition, “the one who prevailed from Arsenal, Bayern, Real and Man City is the favorite in the final for me.”
