FC Bayern: Thomas Tuchel on Leon Goretzka and Harry Kane
Tuchel on Goretzka’s non-nomination: “He knew it a little beforehand. I didn’t speak to him personally, but my assistants did. We know his disappointment and his ambitions and are convinced that he played a good season. The decision “Unfortunately, it didn’t come as a complete surprise. The disappointment is very, very big. We try to treat him normally and not talk about it all the time. It takes a while for him to process it.”
Tuchel on Kane: “He’s abroad.”
Tuchel on Hoeneß’s criticism: “We met during the game against Real and put it to rest. There’s no point in being resentful. It’s fine.”
Tuchel on his time at Bayern: “Timing is always crucial. We consciously chose Bayern – also with an awareness of the stories of the previous coaches. None of the decision-makers from back then are still there. It would be naive to believe that in such a big club it’s always flat waters. No one has to feel sorry for them. Last week there was the theoretical possibility of making a turnaround because the initiative came from the club. The reasons why the decision was made in February are minimal. It is what it is and that’s a good thing.”
Tuchel about his feelings: “We can hardly influence how this is evaluated from the outside. It’s the art of freeing yourself from evaluations as a coach. We always leave our mark – that’s what happened here in a very collegial way. That is worth more than an evaluation from outside. Recognition from outside should not be the driving motivation.”
Tuchel about Kane and the staff: “He is receiving medical treatment from his personal doctor. He cannot travel. It was already borderline in Madrid and we have it with injections and treatments. The back has completely closed, it has gotten worse and in Everyday movements are broken again and again. Leroy and Jamal are not in the squad. Kim is injured. Sacha Boey is definitely not in the squad.
Tuchel about his feeling: “I’m a little sad because I don’t like leaving teams and a staff. There are 60, 70 people here that you see every day. Also the stewards in the underground car park and the boys in the kitchen. There Bonding develops. You work closely together for hours every day. It’s always difficult.”
Tuchel on his conclusion: “The job requires full energy, but it also gives me a lot of energy. It is my great passion. For me, good training is the basis for an excellent day. There are few better, more fun places than a football locker room. A titleless season with Bayern is never satisfactory, no one will disagree with that – including me. It remains a very disappointing performance in the DFB Cup, which was unsatisfactory. We are currently second in the Bundesliga and have scored a number of points Nine of the last eleven years would have been enough to win the championship with an injury issue throughout the season and Leverkusen refusing to lose. That’s not a number of points to be ashamed of. The CL season was over until the 87th minute Madrid almost perfect. Losing there in the last seven minutes can happen without having to be ashamed. We will never shy away from responsibility. We have the right to walk out of this 15 month period with our heads held high.”
