Apparently Thomas Tuchel is planning this at FCB

The sports picture has provided some insights into Thomas Tuchel’s world of thought in its latest issue. It’s about individual Bayern players, but also about the defensive system that the new coach wants to play at the beginning.

So Tuchel is aware that Thomas Müller has a very special status. The coach is aware of how important Müller is as a leader and social center of the team.

In addition, Tuchel should pay special attention to Leroy Sané. The new Bayern coach has kept an eye on Sané since his time at Manchester City. The central position that Sané often played under Julian Nagelsmann is now a thing of the past under Tuchel.

Rather, Tuchel wants to improve Sané in the position that Bayern once signed him for: as a winger. The same applies to Serge Gnabry and Sadio Mané, who are also scheduled for the wings under Tuchel. Mané had loud sports picture Trouble with integration as Nagelsmann kept pushing him back and forth between the wings and the centre-forward position.

In addition, Tuchel would like to give every player clear guidelines as to which position they should play in and how exactly they should behave.

FC Bayern: No transfer requests from Thomas Tuchel yet

As for the system, Tuchel wants to talk to the squad first and see if they’re more comfortable in a back three or four before making a decision. For the coach, defensive stability is the first and most important step.

So far, Tuchel has not informed FCB about possible transfer requests for the summer. The name of his ex-protégé at Chelsea Kai Havertz was apparently mentioned in the talks, but Bayern bosses and Tuchel agreed that Havertz’s position in the team is already well filled.

One of Tuchel’s wishes has allegedly already been fulfilled in a roundabout way: Matthijs de Ligt is said to have been Tuchel’s preferred candidate last summer to strengthen Chelsea’s defence. But the Dutchman only wanted to go to Bavaria. Benjamin Pavard was also shortlisted for the blues by Tuchel, who ultimately preferred Jules Koundé, who new owner Todd Boehly also preferred.
