The Bayern bosses have demonstratively strengthened Julian Nagelsmann after the 0-1 defeat against FC Augsburg. According to club boss Oliver Kahn, Julian Nagelsmann is not available – at least that is the public communication. FCB internally, on the other hand, the latest developments and the work of the 35-year-old seem to be viewed much more critically. According to current media reports, Nagelsmann can no longer afford too many mistakes.
After the 0-1 defeat against FC Augsburg, Bayern slipped to fifth place before the international break and are five points behind leaders Union Berlin. The last time there were four games without a win in the league was in the 2001/02 season, when Borussia Dortmund became German champions. BVB is three points ahead but still within striking distance. With a victory in a direct duel on October 8th, you would draw level with your permanent rival again.
BVB-Kracher becomes the final for Nagelsmann
As the “BILD” reports, the Bundesliga cracker at the beginning of October against BVB in the Signal Iduna Park could become a final for Nagelsmann. In the event of a defeat in the classic, Nagelsmann is likely to be eliminated from the German record champions.
Before that they already play against Bayer Leverkusen (30.9) and Viktoria Pilsen (4.10). Nagelsmann can no longer afford to make any mistakes in these two games either. Above all, another loss of points against the troubled Werkself would worsen the mood of crisis in Munich after the international break. The last meeting between the two teams in March this year ended in a 1-1 draw at the Allianz Arena.
Criticism from all sides – including the team
While those responsible in Munich are demonstratively backing Julian Nagelsmann, the Bayern coach is being criticized from all sides. As the “kicker” reports, “critical voices” are also increasing from the team. Accordingly, the leadership style and communication of the 35-year-old is criticized. The lack of self-criticism should also cause displeasure in the Bayern cabin.
