FC Bayern: Press conference with Nagelsmann NOW in the live ticker

Joshua Kimmich: Basically, I think it’s good that he faced the media representatives. A lot has been reported about him in the last few weeks. In principle, I always think it’s good when someone gives their opinion. I gave him my opinion, but in the end this conviction ran from other people in the club. I rather try to work in the field. That’s why we’re a big club, and we’re guaranteed to have one or two conversations.

Winter break: I’m looking forward to Friday evening, but that’s not even in my head right now. The team’s energy balance will be good again. We then also have to see how fresh VfB is and how intensely the opponent can shape it.

Jamal Musiala: I would like to have all the players with me. I take care of the players who are there and make sure that I prepare them well for the game. These injuries are normal at the end of an exhausting first half of the season.

The staff: The personnel situation allows Tolisso to be in a bad mood, where we now decide whether he trains or not. Jamal broke his metacarpal bone and splinted. The break happened in the game. We have to wait another six, seven days to see how we treat it. He could play according to regulations and doctors. We also treated Leon Goretzka’s knee more, so we still have to decide whether he will go with us. Marcel Sabitzer is back in training today. Otherwise we have some tired players. Choupo-Moting and Josh are known.

Marc Roca: In the end, perspective is always up to the player. Marc Roca trains very hard, has a very strong character and gives his opinion. He was too ambitious in Kiev, most recently in the Bundesliga he did a good job. I always like it when a player is in a good mood and always accelerates.

Games with Leipzig against Atletico: That is certainly not a disadvantage. Back then Atletico played with different staff and different formations.

Nagelsmann on the CL draw: Good lot, good opponent. Very nice city and a great stadium. We last played against Atletico with Leipzig. You have been playing very successfully for years and with an incredibly emotional coach. But it’s not that they just park in the back. They are of good football quality. It’s been the same basic order for almost a year and a half now.

Here we go! The Bayern officials enter the room on time – Nagelsmann is ready.

FC Bayern: Press conference with Nagelsmann today in the live ticker – before the start

Before start: From a personnel point of view, there are some question marks, especially in the midfield center. Joshua Kimmich won’t be an issue again until the new year. Leon Goretzka (patellar tendon) and Marcel Sabitzer (thigh) also fell out against Mainz. Is it enough for one of the two to play against VfB? And what about Corentin Tolisso?

Before start: However, its focus will primarily be on the guest performance in Swabia on Tuesday evening. The 2-1 win over Mainz and the simultaneous draw of BVB in Bochum have increased the record champions’ lead to six points. FCB certainly does not want to lose this until the winter break.

Before start: It starts today at 12.30 p.m. in the media center. The fact that the press round won’t just be about the upcoming opponents also has to do with what happened recently at UEFA headquarters in Nyon. There it is determined who the FCB will meet in the round of 16 of the Champions League. How does Nagelsmann assess the lot?
