The end of Thomas Müller at Bayern triggered a lot of vertebrae. This is exactly why Jürgen Klinsmann criticizes the time of the announcement.
Former Bavaria coach Jürgen Klinsmann criticized the time of the announcement of Thomas Müllers for the upcoming. The decision would “just come a few weeks early. I mean, play the season and say that we sit down on a coffee after the last game, hopefully after the Champions League final. That would have been the better variant,” said the ex-national coach in the Sky interview.
Despite the public vertebra, Klinsmann does not expect negative consequences for the title fight in the Bundesliga or the upcoming quarter-final duel with Inter Milan. At Bayern it is rarely calm anyway. “No matter when something happens, they then turn the switch and concentrate on the essentials,” said the former Bayern coach.
He also trusts Thomas Müller. Klinsmann described the offensive player as someone who embodies the club in a special way – “that’s why he is a bit of Bayern”.
Klinsmann, who helped Müller to the first Bundesliga mission in 2008, expressed the hope that the 34-year-old will bloom again in the coming weeks. According to this, the 2014 world champion can devote himself to a new chapter. Müller’s style of play is “timeless,” said Klinsmann – the attacker can “easily kick three or four or five years.
With a view to the Champions League quarter-finals, Klinsmann does not see FC Bayern in the favorite role. The many injuries made it “totally difficult” for Munich. “Inter has built up a team over the last six or eight years, which is really double -occupied in every position, with top -class carets.” The Italians are “a hard nut” – and in his opinion, “a little more would have the favorite status for this quarter -finals than FC Bayern”. The first leg will rise in Munich on Tuesday evening (9:00 p.m. in the live ticker at T-Online).
