Bayern, who won the Bundesliga early, is still almost fully active in this bundesliga, but does not want to be kicked by midstream team Mainz at the Meeva Arena. You know, Mainz was just beaten by Wolfsburg 5-0 in the last round of the league, but Bayern not only lost 1-3 in the end, but was hit by the opponent at least 3 times in the whole game.
Not only that, Bayern only completed 4 shots on goal in the whole game. This is the second time in Bayern history that the statistics have been so bad since the statistics were available in 1992, and the last time was the 1995 away game against Rostock. In addition, Mainz actually completed 18 shots on goal in the first half, setting a record for the best in the history of the team, and it is also the highest number of shots by Bayern in the first half of the Bundesliga.
After the match, former Bayern manager and current Hertha Berlin manager Magatha taunted: "This is not what the Bundesliga should be, Bayern has no competitive spirit at all." "It's just that Magath may not have watched the full-court video of the match seriously – Bayern's defeat was not so much due to a problem with the morale of the players as it was a poor platooning.
Through the average position map, it can be seen that Bayern's starting position is actually: 3 centre-backs + 3 back-backs + 2 center-forwards, and 1 left-winger + 1 right winger. I don't know, what kind of formation is this playing? Obviously, Bayern's overall formation in this game is extremely uneven, with Gnabry on the right standing further than the centre-forward, while Davies on the left is parallel to the back.
The most deadly thing is that Bayern's flanks are just two players, resulting in the two flanks being completely single-handed, but the middle is overcrowded and crowded. Among them, it was Kimmich's goretzka and Sabice who were replaced after half-time. Goretzka had just seven passes and a success rate as low as 43 percent; Sabicze's rare starter was still at a loss and struggled.
Bayern, who have lost the wing, uneven left and right, and have a chaotic division of labor, obviously cannot play the best level they should have, but the players' emotions have become more and more impatient, not only have physical conflicts with their opponents many times, Goretzka has expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee many times in the first half, and Levan seems to accuse his teammates of running improperly after an unsuccessful attack in the second half. After the game, Sane's refusal to participate in the closing game naturally became the focus of media hype.
Therefore, in an interview with the media after the game, head coach Nagelsman said that he knew the reasons for the loss and would analyze it within the team, and even did not forget to take the opportunity to fight back against Magath: "I think he is definitely not completely selfless in doing so. He should have gone to see the game first and then he could give me a call, and I'm not talking about Hertha Berlin's performance. ”
However, the media and fans do not eat this set at all, after all, Bayern's humiliating performance is difficult to be respected, and it undermines the fairness of the Bundesliga competition, not to mention that Nagelsmann should understand that you are not coaching Hoffenheim, not Leipzig, but bayern Munich, the greatest team in the Bundesliga!
To be fair, Bayern can certainly practice new teams and train new people after winning the title early, but the starting point of this team is always that you are Bayern Munich! So no matter when, no matter what game, this team must first be worthy of this shirt, this team name, rather than letting this century-old giant be humiliated on the field. Therefore, Nagelsmann is not qualified to take Bayern's reputation and play his own whole game!
It should be added that unlike Nagelsman's hard mouth, the captain of the court, Levan, accepted the defeat frankly after the game, and even shook his head in an interview to show disappointment. Throughout the game, Levan is one of the few players who performed normally on the Bayern pitch, especially with his personal ability to score his 18th league away goal of the season, and then surpassed Heynckes and Werner to set a new Bundesliga season away goal record.
It's just that now the outside world is more concerned about Levan's future belonging, and his transfer scandal with La Liga giants Barcelona is getting hotter and hotter. At present, the possibility of Levan joining Barca this summer has gradually increased to 42%, and it is still in an increasing trend.
As things stand, Barca, knowing that they are unable to sign Haaland, have indeed set their sights on Levan, whose contract expires next summer. Looking at the performance of Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and even Aubameyang, who joined Barca in the winter window, barca management is confident that Levan has at least 3 years to go before his peak, thus preparing sufficient transfer funds and salary offers. In addition, Barca president Laporta and Levan's agent Zahavi are also personal friends.
Looking at Levan, he also showed a positive attitude towards this summer's transfer to Barca, and then continued to put pressure on Bayern. According to German media analysis, the extreme negativity of Bayern's management in the renewal of the contract, as well as the strong speech of sports director Sally without communication, did make Levan feel deeply disrespected, and also made the renewal negotiations between the two sides delayed and could not be effectively advanced.
Bayern's recent poor performances, especially in the Champions League quarter-finals, were eliminated by Villarreal, the seventh-placed team in La Liga, causing Levan to basically lose the last chance to compete for the Ballon d'Or. In addition, some German media reported that Levan was very dissatisfied with Nagelsmann's tactical system, coupled with the lack of effective communication between the two sides on this contradiction, it can be seen that Levan's attitude towards Bayern has gradually changed...
For Bayern today, the renewal (departure) of the two consecutive World Footballer of the Year winner has been like this so far, which has indeed aroused a lot of criticism and criticism - after losing the "six champions" meritorious manager last year, this year let the team's top star leave the team in anger? Such a continuous plot, I am afraid, will not make Bayern easy.
