Bavarian Podcast Works S6E5: Harry Kane starts life at Bayern Munich with a crushing loss, is it time to sack Thomas Tuchel?

Well that could have gone better. Embarrassing doesn’t begin to describe what we saw as Bayern Munich succumbed 3-0 to RB Leipzig in this year’s edition of the DFL Supercup. Thomas Tuchel was at a loss to explain why his team is playing such horrible football, so us here at BPW decided to do it for him. Spoiler alert: It’s the coach.

In this episode, INNN and Samrin discuss the following:

• Why did Benjamin Pavard, who wants to leave Bayern Munich, start this game?
• Can you even blame the players when the tactics are this bad?
• How Thomas Tuchel is completely neutering Jamal Musiala.
• What is going on with the midfield? Why is Joshua Kimmich playing so badly?
• In defense of Mathys Tel and the chances he missed.
• Can Harry Kane and/or Thomas Muller really fix this?
• Why this loss hurts more than usual from a marketing/exposure perspective.
• Harry Kane is an amazing transfer, but he could bomb because of a bad start.
• Extremely worrying signs from Thomas Tuchel in the post match presser.
• Is it time for Bayern to sack Tuchel? What options are available as replacements?
• Could any new transfers fix this team?
• Closing out with the goalkeeper issue — is Sven Ulreich good enough? Will Manuel Neuer ever come back?
• Was it a mistake to let Yann Sommer go? Should Bayern Munich have kept him?
