Yeah it’s basically “we need freedom to play not more structure” which is the absolute antithesis of Tuchel.This is basically a senior player calling Tuchel out no? He's gone surely, if so.

If Leverkusen somehow fail to win the title this season it'll be the most Neverkusen thing they've ever doneIt would have to be the Champions League, stopping City and Arsenal on the way Neverkusen haven't lost a game all season and are 8 points clear.
It'll be like Arsenal last year. They were also 8 points clear, and had lead the league for 248 days.If Leverkusen somehow fail to win the title this season it'll be the most Neverkusen thing they've ever done

Actually no. Müller isn't complaining about a lack of freedom as such, he is complaining about the players not playing as free-flowing in actual matches than in the training sessions. Of course the manager influences that as well, but at least he clearly points to a mental problem, not to too rigid tactics or something like that.This is basically a senior player calling Tuchel out no?

Ok that’s helpful context. Got impression he was saying they were too structured but if it’s that they aren’t translating training to the pitch it’s not going against Tuchel.Actually no.

He explicitly said that his comments go against the players and to underline what's wrong he quoted a famous Oliver Kahn statement ("Balls! We need balls!")Ok that’s helpful context.

There was some reports talking about that Bayern would love to see Xabi Alonso take over as the manager this summer, but others believes there already is a plan for Alonsos future - that he will stay for another season in Leverkusen if they DO NOT win the league, but because it seems that they will, he feels that he wont repeat this monster of a season again next summer and that it would be the best thing to leave the club while it is at the very top and his legacy will go down in their history books. But, it was said that he already was and is in contact with Real Madrid for the manager job when Ancelloti retires (planned to do it in 2025) so if he wants to leave Leverkusen this summer, he will either have to ask Real Madrid to see if they can talk to Ancelotti again (Real M. doesn't want to sack Ancelotti after everything he has done for the club) and see if he is willing to retire this summer, or he can stay in Leverkusen and hope that Leverkusen can repeat this fantastic season, or he could go for the Liverpool job or take 1 year of and wait for summer 2025.Be a laugh if they just went for Alonso now either, which wouldn't surprise me at all.
Leverkusen is on a run of 32 unbeaten matches (thorughout all competitions) which is on par with Flick's sextuple winning Bayern and if they don't lose their next match they hold that record on their own. Their points per game average sees them very close to the all time record held by Heynckes treble winning Bayern and they could actually beat that record. What Bayern is doing currently really doesn't matter for Leverkusen, they are on track to win titles due to own strength, not due to any Bayern weakness.if he really is this good as a manager, and its not just a season for Leverkusen where exactly everything goes their way and Bayern just having a bad season
Yes i agree, but they have still not won anything yet - and sometimes when you do, and you have to start all over again next year - its not easy to keep that momentum going on for ever.Leverkusen is on a run of 32 unbeaten matches (throughout all competitions) which is on par with Flick's sextuple winning Bayern and if they don't lose their next match they hold that record on their own.

Imagine the cringy Bayern wankfest on here if it happened.As if , my lord some of you are gullible.
To be fair, most of the jobs have been shit. A struggling (unnamed) PL team, the Norwegian women's national team and worst of all: the Swedish men's national team.I've never seen a bloke linked with so many jobs still be unemployed.
Was he not odds on favourite for a Turkish job just a few weeks ago?To be fair, most of the jobs have been shit. A struggling (unnamed) PL team, the Norwegian women's national team and worst of all: the Swedish men's national team.
He clearly needed a long break and has said so himself. Nothing wrong with that. If anything, I respect it.
Maybe. But I don't blame him for aiming a little higher than that after the United job.Was he not odds on favourite for a Turkish job just a few weeks ago?
Always said when he left that his best bet is to go to a EL level club and see how it goes from there. There's no way he's getting any major gigs.Maybe. But I don't blame him for aiming a little higher than that after the United job.
Yes obviously. Tuchel has a habit of completely imploding a-few seasons into a job and with the squad he has, it's pretty clear that they shouldn't be losing to fecking Bochum. I reckon any semi competent manager could go in and improve the side until the end of the season.He'd have them finishing better than if they keep Tuchel.

Maguire and Upamecano at the backDan James, Maguire and AWB to be his first signings!
Nice nice nice
They have. But most of them are just sitting drunk in TV talkshows and are totally clueless.Are they crazy? Ole might actually do well but they have their own legends dont they? Rather than appointing their worst nemesis.
One of my favourite images in football that.Nice nice nice
