FC Bayern is rushing deeper into the crisis after the defeat against Augsburg: Nagelsmann, Salihamidzic and Müller take a stand.
“Oans, zwoa, abgsuffa!” Der FC Bayern suffered a very bad defeat just in time for the start of the Wiesn FC Augsburg captured and has been without a win for four Bundesliga games. Hasan Salihamidzic and Thomas Müller were almost shocked after the final whistle, while Nagelsmann left an angry impression. At FCA, on the other hand, they not only celebrate the three points, but also miracle keeper Gikiewicz. We have summarized the votes on the game.
The next few days and weeks are likely to be more than uncomfortable at Bayern. Due to the ever weakening performance, the people of Munich – even one day before the obligatory visit to the Wiesn – have absolute hangover mood. Sports director Hasan Salihamidzic was also shocked after the game.
“We played in a way you can’t win a Bundesliga game. The atmosphere is devastated. We have to win the next game,” demanded the Bosnian loudly table footballEditor Georg Holzer. Maybe it’s an advantage for Munich that after the international break they’re going against Bayer Leverkusen, a shaky but strong team. “We have brutal problems against teams that are physically strong and beat our socks off,” criticized Salihamidzic. “Now there are no more excuses,” he also clarified.
Müller criticizes chances: “Should never have lost”
You can see how serious the situation really is at the latest when even Thomas Müller is speechless, which otherwise only happens in the event of a CL elimination.
“I’m speechless, we should never have lost this game. We had more chances, but didn’t finish them well enough,” the offensive player complained. However, he didn’t want to pinpoint the problems directly due to the lack of a clear number nine. “Man can have that discussion but we have to work with the squad we have,” he countered.
Of course, coach Julian Nagelsmann knows that too, who was particularly surprised to bring Stanisic and Choupo-Moting for Mané and Musiala when they were 1-0 down. The native of Landsberg was clearly upset about the bankruptcy and is harsh on his protégés.
“We have the majority in 20 situations and play the ball very sloppily. During the week we talked a lot about how we would counteract that,” he said angrily. The coach also had a few complaints about the attitude. “We just don’t defend at the goal. There was no greed in standard situations. There was a lot of laissez-faire today. It’s not that easy to find words for it,” explained Nagelsmann, who announced that he would “think about it now ” to become. It remains to be hoped that the coach will come up with solutions. Otherwise he will soon have to cling to his trainer’s chair more firmly than a visitor to the devil’s wheel.
Augsburg celebrates Gikiewicz: “We saw a flying Rafa”
Apart from their own weak performance, Bayern’s bankruptcy was mainly due to Augsburg keeper Gikiewicz, who sensationally defused several top chances from Mané, Sané, Müller and Co.
“We’re very happy with the three points and we’re happy. Of course, you always have to be lucky against Bayern. We had nothing to lose. Of course, they have brutal players in Sané, Musiala and Mané, but that was a strong team effort by us”, the hero of the day praised his challengers. Enrico Maassen praised the goalkeeper even more. “What he (Gikiewicz) holds week after week is outstanding. We saw a flying Rafa. He has a big part in us being successful today,” he ennobled the goalkeeper.
In Munich, you will undoubtedly struggle with the fact that in your own duels, the opposing goalkeeper always complains about a miracle keeper. But it will probably be a little because of your own weakness at the end.
