The Miller case: the first sign of trouble between Tuchel and the club

Many consider Bayern Munich to be the most organized club in the world. In terms of economic power, few can match the Bavarians. There are still many segments which make one club a great one, and Bayern also have all of them, but they also have some interesting specifics, which are not usually connected with the club of that size. One of them surfaced in recent days – empaty. And there are others who will say it’s not about empaty but about respect for the true values of the club. In any case, two words have been in focus in recent days: Thomas Muller (33)!Bayern MunichThe only club in the world where – the CEO and SportDirector have a meeting with a player cause he isn’t in the Starting XI- the President says in public player has to play#Müller Tuchel will love that.

However, since in the 6:0 triumph over Schalke he returned to the starting 11 and played the entire 90 minutes – scoring a goal in the process – it seemed that the problems were ironed out, that Thomas Tuchel saw and admitted the mistake, but it seems that is not quite the case. Given that his predecessor, Julian Nagelsmann, found himself in a similar predicament when he substituted Muller early on against Borussia Monchengladbach (and then lost that match), for which he later publicly apologized, many thought that Saturday’s return of the 33- year-old offensive player in the first line-up is actually a kind of Tuchel’s apology. Bayern’s captain is going nowhere, says club’s CEOBut Bild reveals some details that actually say the problem has not been solved. They claim that Thomas Tuchel was pressured to bring Muller back into the team. After there were speculations about Muller’s departure from the club, there was a meeting between the attacker, sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic and CEO Oliver Kahn. The epilogue of everything: it seems that the German representative received guarantees that he will play, and the coach received clear instructions. Three days later, Muller scored the first goal against Schalke, after which President Herbert Heiner said:”That goal for 1:0 was something like a can opener. Now everyone sees that Tomas is necessary for us”.If such a statement was not particularly surprising, given the whole foreplay in Kahn’s office, Tuchel’s reaction certainly was:”When the president says so, the coach does not contradict”.Thomas Müller is seriously considering leaving Bayern due to his current situation. Müller is not considering retirement and wants to play until at least 2024. He wants to continue playing for a club that competes for trophies. Even a Bundesliga move isn’t ruled out [@cfbayern] pic.twitter.com/V8Dcpfj2v8— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) May 9, 2023 The question is, was this a statement of submission, which is certainly uncharacteristic for a serious coach like Tuchel, or was it an irony that could perhaps mean a future trouble in Munich? We could find out as early as Saturday night, when Bayern play a derby against RB Leipzig.”Manchester City is one of the fastest teams in the world, Miller would not be able to meet the demands of such a match” explained Tuchel why the experienced forward didn’t play at Etihad. Marco Rose and his Leipzig force a similar style, they have a lot of runners, speeders, so it will be interesting to see if Muller is again moved to the bench. It is not excluded that even Tuchel’s fate depends on the upcoming starting line-up that he has to dictate. And while he probably doesn’t know what to do yet, advice comes to him from all sides…”For me as a coach, Miller would always be the most serious option. He has the most experience in fighting for trophies, he’s won so many, he’s in shape, he’s eager to play. He leads and pushes the team forward. I don’t think Tuchel should change anything for Leipzig” said legendary Lotthar Matthaus.##NAJAVA_MECA_7261632##In the end, a former Eintracht Frankfurt striker, now a commentator, a man who knows very well the opportunities in German football – Jan Aage Fjortoft – announced himself through social networks. The Norwegian was not very kind to the latest developments in Munich:”Bayern Munich, the only club in the world where the sports director and the CEO have a meeting with the player because he is not in the starting line-up. The president is telling the public how that footballer has to play. Will Tuchel like that? NO,” wrote Fjortoft.
