Gündogan on Bayern crisis: “I’m very surprised”
For Ilkay Gündogan, Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel is one of the best coaches in Europe. The Barcelona professional is surprised about the Bayern crisis.
The Munich team suffered their third competitive defeat in a row on Sunday with a 3-2 defeat at VfL Bochum and are already eight points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen in second place in the Bundesliga. Despite the job guarantee from his boss Jan-Christian Dreesen, Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel expects intensive discussions about himself in the next few days.
However, Gündogan doesn’t let anything come to Tuchel. With Tuchel, Bayern “actually has one of the best coaches in Europe. I can only say positive things about him from my year-long work with BVB,” said the former Borussia Dortmund professional.
Tuchel is “tactically outstanding and an extremely honest, open guy. I personally got along very well with this type of person,” said the captain of the German national soccer team.
