The manner of the defeat to Bayer Leverkusen was the most un-Bayern-like performance in a potential title-decider in 15 years
The clash with unbeaten league leaders was a game for “pulling down trousers and putting the cards on the table,” buoyant Bayern Munich head coach Thomas Tuchel had said. But instead of the desired show of prowess, Saturday’s big reveal was a truly sorry sight. His Bayern side had little up front and a dangerously exposed back side.
“We had enough players of international quality. But I’m talking about taking decisions on the ball, about playing with intelligence, about making runs and understanding situations. It’s OK to feel the pressure. But that pressure needs to turn into energy.” In addition, he criticised his side playing too many safe passes that didn’t progress the ball. “We’re overcomplicating things,” he said. Muller’s remarkable intervention described the problem well, yet it stopped short of an explanation.
