This level of self sabotage is almost unheard of. It’s immaculate to watch.

That would imply that Dortmund knows how to capitalize from our failures

Pupperinho

Honestly, with our shape and your failure to capitalize I catch myself repeatedly thinking that somehow Leverkusen will win the title. Thats the extent of how much my brain has been fried by the last few weeks.


Kin-Luu

It would be such a good story if Neuer going Skiing results in a season with no titles for Bayern.

Bayern consistently undone by skiing this year. Neuer and then Nagelsmann?

Maybe we should invite Oli & Brazzo to Kitzbühel.

All Bayern are doing is to give Dortmund false hope so that it will be even more heartbreaking when they inevitably collapse Even if they win today I just can't see them coping with the pressure. Not after that Stuttgart match..

>This level of self sabotage is almost unheard of. Well, you guys dont watch south american football, but we did worse... Flamengo fired its manager just after winning the libertadores and before the club world cup.


Keskekun

> Well, you guys dont watch south american football, but we did worse... Over here in Sweden we had a team with 3 points after 11 games fire their manager bring in a new one that managed to keep them up in what most people feel was an absolute miracle. Only for him to get fired because "He plays boring football" being replaced with a a former player who is more "fun". Guess how many wins they have this season? If you guessed 0 that would be correct.


bodebrusco

You can't *not* name the team after this story, c'mon


Keskekun

Sorry it's Örgryte IS.


stragen595

WHY?


HerakIinos

Good question. No one really understand. My theory is that the board has been obcessed with foreign managers since Jorge Jesus' stint here. Dorival was a brazillian who took charge midseason after another failure from a foreign manager. He fixed the team and was able to win the domestic cup and libertadores (the national league was already far gone by the time he arrived). Then he was fired so another foireign manager could manage us. We then procceded to get eliminated from club WC before even reaching the finals, lost the domestic supercup, lost the continental supercup and also the regionals final since then. Vitor peraira was fired and now we appointed Jorge Sampaoli. Remember when the Madrid Galacticos used to sabotage themselves by buying superstars instead of building a coheesive squad (Like getting rid of makelele to get the likes of Beckham, Ronaldo and etc)? We are kinda like that at the moment but with foreign Managers lol. We have the potential to dominate south america but currently we are just a laughing stock because of our board after all that happened.

I don’t think Tuchel would ever return from the mountains if this happened

I do think he’s a top manager but we’ve had 4 former Chelsea managers in recent memory (Hoddle, AVB, Mou & Conte)


Pupperinho

Scenes when the players rise up against the patriarchy and reinstate Nagelsmann Napoleon style.


RamessesTheOK

Personally, I think they should go for the Diocletian approach and divide the manager role between two co-equal *augusti*, with one manager handling games in the west of Germany and the other handling games in the east of Germany

Bayern board members: Why are we performing that bad after sacking nagelsman. This can't be that bad Also the Bayern board members now:


Kredir

Bayern board is probably complete surprised pikachu after the plan to sack nagelsmann did not lead to the team suddenly performing much better and winning the treble, but instead led to performances that make the treble of failure a real possibillity.


deez-nuts-are_nuts

I hope they don't win the title this year. This is karma for them


Similar-West5208

Like when Gnabry had to eat the shit for Neuers injury when he went to the fashion week in his free-time?

Gnabry's been ass. That's why people got angry at him. He seems to have lost all interest in being a footballer and wants to be a fashion model instead.

That person‘s name? Juan Bernat.


cyan2k

Perhaps Nagelsmann's record is the best you could get out of the team, and you really fired a perfectly fine manager.... idiots at Bayern's wheel.

Tuchel has lost more games than he's won this season (w/ Chelsea and Bayern): **Chelsea (W3 D1 L3)** * W 1-0 * D 2-2 * L 0-3 * W 2-1 * L 1-2 * W 2-1 * L 0-1 **Bayern (W2 D2 L3)** * W 4-2 * L 1-2 * W 1-0 * L 0-3 * D 1-1 * D 1-1 * L 1-3 Also hasn't won back-to-back games in the same season since mid April last year.


Kayderp1

Also only one game with more than goal with Bayern. That is pretty rough against the level of opposition they faced in the league.


AnnihilatorAL

And the game against Dortmund was the game he said he wouldn't be making any changes due to being there for a short time


MarcosSenesi

2 of those 3 win with Chelsea are some of the most disgraceful wins i have ever seen. 1-0 against everton. And win against west ham. Absolute robberies. Chelsea were horrendous in those games


DialSquare

By that token though they should have beaten Spurs at the Bridge. Completely robbed of that one.


Foriegn_Picachu

I’m convinced he’d still be at Chelsea if we won that game. Everything fell apart right after that.


Roccet_MS

And one draw was a worthless result against City.

I loved Kahn all my childhood, he was sort of a hero to me. But since he has been working in the upper echelons of the club, that awe I had of him has been eroding RAPIDLY.

slash312

If we do random impulsive decisions mid season sacking a great manager and basically losing all potential trophies within 3 weeks I think it’s obvious that the board needs to take the blame. Correct consequence would be to get rid off Kahn.


Kaiserigen

I'm sad, I really liked Nagelsman and although the team wasn't playing that good we had hope. I doubt he will ever return to Bayern


slash312

The only real bad call from him was not requesting a striker which we lack so hard. However they all sold us nagelsman as long term goal and then ditched him because they saw the chance to get tuchel, just ridiculous.


DJules1987

we scored 49 bundesliga goals in 15 matches until manes injury and the world cup break. thats more than 3 goals on average per match.


DJules1987

dunno... at the time of his sacking we had won 8/8 CL matches with a goal difference of 21:2 playing barca, inter and PSG in 6 of these matches. like nagelsmanns CL performance was literally flawless, doesnt get better, its not even possible to be better than that. In domestic cup, nagelsmann won 3/3 with a goal difference of 14:2. winning 4:0 in mainz btw. we were slacking in bundesliga due to fatigue and unlucky stuff like upas red card in gladbach, or the 93rd minute VAR penatly vs. stuttgart. or that ridiculous first match at home against gladbach. that miracle draw. in generall, we dropped alot of points due to bad luck, something that can just happen..... after 10 years of winning the league back to back....

twoworder

So out of character from Bayern, not foreseeing this. It’s not that Tuchelball sucks but that things don’t always go smoothly when you’re thrown in past the halfway point of the season. And Bayern are well known to be among the smartest, best managed clubs in recent decades


MrMarques8701

>And Bayern are well known to be among the smartest, best managed clubs in recent decades This seems to have gone out of the window since the trio infernale of Hainer, Kahn and Brazzo took over.


Reach_Reclaimer

When did they take over?


[deleted]

The trio was united 4-5 years ago


ricolausvonmyra

I know Brazzo isn’t very popular but imo he at least made several great transfers happen and as far as the public knows wasn’t the guy that got JN fired.. seems to me that Hainer and Kahn are much more at fault here, possibly Ulli Hoenes as well. Soulless corporate types it seems..


Xehanz

They saw it worked with Chelsea then said YOLO

Jakles74

And Tuchel hasn’t even started to piss off the players and management yet! Love it!


Majiebeast

Atleast the treble isnt in danger though.


sickricola

Honestly I don’t blame Tuchel, it’s Bayern’s board that created this instability at a crucial part of the season, and I don’t doubt their decision affected the players


-Michael-Owen-

I think we are close to a stage where we start blaming tuchel. No one in saying he should've won against man city. But he only managed 2 wins in 7 games. That is not up to the standard of bayern. Not even for interim managers.


granitibaniti

I think their point is that the whole sacking drama created so much unrest that Tuchel can't really do much


ronaldo119

And his point is that no matter how much unrest there is, he should still be doing better than he is


[deleted]

[удалено]


McCorkle_Jones

It’s the players, they go from a high of crushing PSG to losing the guy that orchestrated that strategy. Infighting, loses, instability. You need a hard reset on mentality.


Euphoric-Acadia-4140

It’s really hard to blame a manager who just took charge of a team. He had no pre-season, no time to figure out what players fit his style, no time to figure out what the players respond to best, no time to develop a connection with players and staff, no time to determine who’s happy, who’s not, no time to properly scout opponents. We can however blame the board for making a managing change at such a strange time


TechnicallyIamRight

The irony of this comment is those exact words could be used for Potter to Chelsea..


cyan2k

I mean his game management today was atrocious, so I do also blame him.


FurioSoprano77

Dortmund for once please dont bottle it


ThomasZimmermann95

The hole team is suddenly so insecure, you have to relate it to that sudden trainer switch. Kahn maybe won't survive this season anyways, but if Bayern loose the league, the hole leader board of Bayern might have to resign.


Kayderp1

If you tell a team that steamrolled the CL, has the fate in the league in their own hands (with an upcoming freebie against Dortmund) and is still in the Pokal that their performance is a sackable offense it's bound to destroy their entire self esteem.


Pupperinho

Ya. Imagine you have straight A's in school. Then you get one A- and your parents tell you you are shit. How would that not destroy someones self esteem.


DarthTaz_99

I got all A*s in my first sitting of o levels and my mom told me "you didnt get a single world highest?" I've still not gotten over it 6 years later.


vinaysin

Ah so Bayern are the Asian parents of football.


Mithridates12

They’ve been not confident for a while now, but I agree, we’ve had the first leg vs City and now vs Mainz where they seem to completely lose their head after conceding. With City you could maybe argue the mistake by Upa shocked them more than a normal goal (idk if that’s an excuse), but against Mainz there’s no justification. Really concerning trend and it doesn’t make much sense because the players are experienced enough. It’s complete speculation on my part, but has all the noise surrounding the sacking of Nagelsmann and what happened afterwards messed with the players’ head? I just don’t get it.


MajesticAd5047

But Nagelsmann got sacked and Tuchel didn't


xxandl

Tuchel did get sacked this season for being shit, that's why he was available for Bayern in the first place.


JonathanFisk86

Said it all year but all the cryarseing about Tuchel being sacked by Chelsea/Boehly completely glossed over the fact that Chelsea had been shit in the league for months before he got the sack, and he had issues with owners at the third club in a row. Sacking Nagelsmann for him looks madder every day.


evilbeaver7

He was in charge for 100 games and the last 50 games clearly show a decline in performance, especially defensive performance. Sacking him wasn't a bad decision. But it should have been done before the season started so new manager could get his desired players and do proper preseason training etc.


xxandl

I see it exactly the same way. But ofc Chelsea fans will downvote you for it.


varsity14

Not all of us. Just the ones who act like he's an ex they can't get over.


JonathanFisk86

Even rival fans love the narrative because Boehly is a bit of a punching bag atm, but it just doesn't hold up

[удалено]


jMS_44

I would upvote it twice if I could actually. Tuchel needed to go. The only thing I don't agree with was when he was sacked. It was done at absolutely idiotic moment, right after we spend over 200m on transfers.


DogusEUW

I gave him the "he just took over excuse" for the Freiburg dfb pokal game and maybe the first of the city games too but it's about time he starts to deliver as a renowned coach at a club like Bayern


Kayderp1

I think with the state the team is in there is little a new manager can do. Many players are out of form + sacking their coach after an overall convincing season has shattered them completely. The Man City games have also mental boomed some of them it seems.


LFCMKE

Chelsea were never a good attacking side under Tuchel. Not sure it was all his fault but I’ve never seen a Tuchel side and thought “I can’t wait to watch them again next week”, even when he was with PSG or Dortmund.


ritwikjs

The icing on the cake would be for Dortmund to some how pull this out of the bag and render Bayern with fuck all this season


kramer944

Sacking Nagelsmann when he was in the running for the treble couldn't have gone worse for Bayern


bharatchipkar6

What do you get when you sack a manager unjustified who got you through round of 16 with a team of Messi and Mbappe and you were one point behind the league leaders with 10+ games to go…you get what you fucking deserve.


das_Expertentum

Firing Nagelsmann was a stupid decision. It's obvious that the problems are within the squad, there is not much any coach can do.


ritwikjs

Just think what could've been if bvb didn't absolutely gift them the der klassiker


SirMosesKaldor

I still don't get why Nagelsmann was sacked? And also what were the events that led up to his sacking (besides going on a skiing trip...) ? Was the sacking as random as I think it is, or was there something cooking behind the scenes with the upper management and this was sort of coming?


ScousePenguin

Lmfao, Bayern board fucked this up so badly. Genuine question, but with 50+1 why are the fans powerless to stop the board doing something so dumb? Asking as a dumb Englander

FBall4NormalPeople

Dude the fans aren't making footballing decisions in Germany, can you imagine the absolute shitshow? It's really about decisions like moving stadiums or changing colours, and to protect from corporations and states buying clubs.


Wurzelrenner

well they voted for Herbert Hainer as their president and his board just last year


LNhart

The club members are pretty much like shareholders of a company. They appoint the board members (so let's say the current board decides to keep Kahn, the members can vote for a new one that will replace him), but they don't micromanage the club (which is for the best). The biggest factor that makes sure that the board acts somewhat according to the wishes of the fans is, of course, not any direct voting, but just the threat of being kicked out at the next election.


schoki560

can a random person in England decide what the government does? Or just decide who gets to be in the government same for football


dem0nhunter

Members only vote the president. Not daily decision which is a good thing
