FC Bayern Munich is already looking for form after the second competitive game of the year – and the championship is in danger. Coach Thomas Tuchel is aware of this before the catch-up game against Union Berlin, and he is also self-critical.
Second competitive game in 2024, first defeat for FC Bayern Munich. The coach Thomas Tuchel took the damned game against Werder Bremen on Sunday visibly with him, you could still see that on Tuesday. “We can do a lot better because there is a lot of room for improvement,” he analyzed before the duel with Union Berlin in the catch-up game on Wednesday.
“The explanation remains the same: passion, grit and enthusiasm remain the basic virtues for every football game.” But that was “absolutely not there” for 70 minutes against Bremen. “We are behind our claims, of course,” he said.
The championship is increasingly in danger for Tuchel’s FC Bayern
Tuchel also seemed a bit annoyed by his past performance on Tuesday. “The switch isn’t just flipped, it’s not easy,” he said and also explicitly criticized himself: “I’m the first to question myself when so little of what I want to stand for as a coach , on the square.”

The Munich coach emphasized on Tuesday with a look at the table: “We are very clearly aware of the starting position.” The Munich team is threatened with their first season without a championship title since 2012. With the catch-up game against Union, FC Bayern is still seven points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen. “We will continue to demand this until the knot breaks. Until we are able to show the passion, the greed, the hunger, the desire, which is the basis for every football game. The basis is to let the spark fly .”
Change or not? Tuchel is faced with the crucial question
Tuchel did not rule out personnel changes before the other two tasks of the week against Berlin and in Augsburg. After all, he wasn’t happy with some of the players at halftime against Bremen, and the poor performance continued.
But the change thing is always the “crucial question”. “Is now the moment when they can prove again that they can do better or is this the moment when a few changes will happen?” he explained. After the question of rights, he did not reveal any further details about the line-up.
