“Burn” Bayern, before the double with Real Madrid! Tuchel: “I was deeply offended as a coach”

Tuchel, who has been announced that he will not continue at the Allianz Arena since February, managed to pull the team out of crisis and qualify for the UCL “ace box”, beating perhaps the most in-form team in Europe, Arsenal (the Gunners have the best attack and defense in the Premier League).

Even so, things have not calmed down in Munich, with Uli Hoeness, Bayern’s honorary chairman, once again attacking the coach, this time for not knowing how to work with young players.

“I don’t think he can better Davies, Pavlovic or Musiala. I think you should work hard with them and trust them. I’m waiting for a coach who will raise the young footballers, a coach who knows how to work with them and bring them to their maximum form“, was Hoeness’s statement, which ignited spirits.

Tuchel felt hurt in his pride by this speech and wanted to respond to the Bayern legend, implying that he could not find a more inappropriate time for a conflict, in the context of the double with Real Madrid, in the semi-finals of the Champions League. knocking on the door.

“This is so far from reality that I wouldn’t have reacted to it at all if it hadn’t come from Uli. The fact that these statements belong to our boss, before a double with Real, gives another flavor. It deeply offends me as a coach.

I don’t even know how to answer, my honor has been trampled on. If I’ve proven something in my 15-year career, it’s that I always bet on young people, I always gave credit to the players from the Academies of the clubs where I trained. I don’t understand why Uli came up with those statements now, especially since they are totally unfounded“said Tuchel.

Bayern meets Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday at the Allianz Arena. The “Galacticians”, who passed the titular winner of the trophy, City, in the quarters, start from the position of favorites in the qualification.
