Comment from a Bayern fan under the news of Flick's appointment.
As a Bayern fan, I will say that Flick is overrated and is not worth putting him in place of the already adapted Xavi. The man (Xavi) took the championship in the first season (full season) with all the problems, in the second he took the same number of points as in the championship year, and reached the Champions League playoffs, where he lost due to deletion. A man builds a team and gets fired halfway through for the sake of dubious success with a coach who took the treble in half a season on moral and strong-willed grounds.
Everyone only remembers the trophies, but they don’t remember the game. We had problems in the quarter-finals against Lyon, PSG just didn't score their chances in the final.The next year is indicative, where we we lost against a weak team in the cup and lost vs PSG in the champions league.. I don’t know what they expect at Barca if he left Bayern due to disagreements over transfers. There is no money at Barca, will he be ready to accept the fact that they give him an old striker as a starter?
Watch a film about the German national team under Flick, it can tell you a lot.
Thanks to him for the treble, of course, but as a coach, I think he is overrated and the German national team showed this in particular. But if everything works out for him, I’ll be happy.
You can simply take a dry comparison of Bayern's two seasons, one of which is considered a failure, and the second is considered ordinary with success in the form of the Bundesliga.
Comparing the full seasons of Tuchel and Flick - Tuchel has 72 points, 94 goals scored, 45 conceded (we take into account that defenders are always injured), 3rd place. Flick has 78 points, 99 goals scored, 44 missed, 1st place.
What do we have? If Bayer Leverkusen had played in Flick's season as well, we would have been in second place. The result, as you can see, is almost identical. But everyone thinks that Tuchel is a failure, and Flick created a super team.
Exactly the same loss against a weak team in the Cup, only Flick was eliminated from the Champions League earlier, and not in 1/2 in the last minute.
