Nagelsmann rethinks: “We have changed a bit”.

Julian Nagelsmann (35) had a “learning experience” and therefore wants to approach the new season at FC Bayern differently.

With a joke Julian Nagelsmann underlined on Thursday afternoon how well it already works for him with the “learning” from past weeks, months, mistakes. “I don’t talk about players from other clubs,” laughed the Bayern coach when asked about his preferred player Konrad Laimer from RB Leipzig.

Just last week Nagelsmann was still fighting back against his open words about Harry Kane, for which there had been criticism on North London. Or his joking question about where Barcelona actually got the money for Robert Lewandowski and Co.

Less adaptation to the opponent, more focus on your own game

Nagelsmann still wants to make his opinion known, but apparently wants to take a step back a little more often. And said “learning” just doesn’t refer to his public relations, but mainly to those on the pitch. “We’ve changed a bit,” explained the 35-year-old, adding: “We don’t want to be too variable. In other words: less adaptation to the opponent, more focus on our own game.

During the modest second half of the season, Nagelsmann was often accused of changing his own system too often, switching between a three-man and a four-man backline. “We adjusted a few things and had a learning as far as last season is concerned. “

And it will be different anyway

Anders wird es anyway ohne der Tormaschine Lewandowski, even if the first competitive match appearance at the Supercup in Leipzig (5:3) certainly provided profitable insights. “Of course there were things we could have done better in the second half”, three goals against were more than just “collateral damage”.

Precisely for that reason, Nagelsmann found “this game” from the coach’s point of view “outstanding, because you were able to extract a lot. It was a very interesting comparison between things that we didn’t do well last year, which we then did very well in the first half – and in the second half we partly regressed again. To highlight that in the video was, I think, very valuable for the players, for us coaches anyway.”

He says it is with “a lot of joy” that he and his team now go into the new season, which starts on Friday night in Frankfurt. “It will be demanding,” Nagelsmann knows. “Playing in Frankfurt is not easy.”

But if things continue like this with Learning, the focus will not be on Eintracht anyway.
