[Plettenberg] After talks between Bayern bosses and Thomas Tuchel’s management today, the club now wants to go into next season with Tuchel. Still no total agreement. The sticking point in negotiations is mainly about the new contract term. Tuchel now wants a contract until at least 2026.

  1. Just count the extra 10m until 2026 as an “I’m sorry” bonus

  2. I’m pro Tuchel. At least more pro Tuchel than pro De Zerbi or pro Ten Hag.

  3. One of the biggest clubs in the world and we need to un-sack our manager because we couldn’t attract anyone better. Just fucking sad.

  4. At least we know what we get with Tuchel in “worst case scenario seasons”, apparently. We will likely end with 75 points in the league.

    Which is enough in 9 out of 10 seasons to become Bundesliga champion. Points tally end of season:

    23/24 – 72 (75)

    22/23 – 71

    21/22 – 77

    20/21 – 78

    19/20 – 82

    18/19 – 78

    It was close last year, not really close in the decade before.

  5. What do you guys think about the contract extension? If he gets a contract until 2026, this looks like he can’t be fired before, right? Which also means we might lose out next season on Alonso, Klopp If available..

    On the other hand squad and himself seem to have aligned better and if he gets some new players ..

  6. It’s simply the best – even if not perfect – solution.

    Maybe not long-term, but to give Müller at least an outside shot of retiring after a Finale dahoam should make it worth it for every Bayern supporter.
    Might also be Neuer’s last dance. They and Harry Kane deserve a win now mentality.

    Just give him his contract, Bayern wasted to much money for coaches, it’s not the end of the world. Everyone saves face, no public apologies necessary.

    And if he fails, the market in 2025 is much better.

  7. Give Tuchel complete power on transfer decisions so that he can cook…

    But sadly this is not how Hoeneß/ Bayern works.

  8. masterclass from management with how they have handled Nagelsmann & Tuchel.

    Will take years to rebuild any reputation towards coaches.

  11. Under Tuchelball,

    We won no trophy. Bundesliga last season was just luck.

    We lost to teams without even one Shot on Target.

    We lost to Dortmund,Bremen and Bochum after so many years.

    We lost to an Italian side after so many years.

    We have the lowest points per game.

    We got eliminated by a third Division team.

    Literally anyone is better than him. I don’t know why you are all dickriding him now. You were all crying about him just few months ago. I never complained about him but just can’t watch horrible football under him. Please make him gone.

    And also Brazzo is much better than these Freund and Eberl. He can easily land a good coach.

  12. It’s shocking to me that Bayern fans think this is good. Maybe it’s the best current choice of many sad options, but this IS a failure. Tuchel was not good. Period.

  14. Bayern board is so incompetent… Still… With new people. I’m at a loss for words. One of the biggest clubs in the world isnt able to get a coach besides Flick because all the other coaches are avoiding them like the plaque. Even coaches under their level. This is the most embarrassing search for a coach I have ever seen.

    I’m not sure if one of Eberl or Freund are at fault here. I mean in hindsight it looks beyond stupid to fire your coach premature in public without having a replacement secured but there was still enough time to find a solution.

    Imo it was Uli who fucked them. After his comments every potentially interested coach could see they could be fucked at every given moment once Uli decides he doesn’t like them, their work or the results. Its hilarious to me that Uli most likely has to apologize to Thomas for him to even consider continuing as a coach. Get fucked Uli.

  15. I don’t understand how we can get a play-by-play on the coaching search and contract negotiations!?! How is this ok? I know it’s cool for fans, but an absolute disaster for the reputation of the club (forget the fact we can’t attract any coaches, but that every detail is immediately leaked to the press)

  16. I’ll take the two extremes. Pep or Mourinho then

  18. So we’re pulling a Xavi now?? This saga is too much honestly, like wrap it up and focus on the transfer window targets…

  19. Even if he isn’t the ideal candidate that Bayern would like, the fact that he now has the backing of most of the squad is a huge positive. It’s important for the players to believe in the coach as that is ultimately what brings success. There’s no question about Tuchel’s competency as coach so lets move forward with him.
