Thomas Tuchel on the situation after the defeat to Lazio in the Champions League:

“We were depressed, but this is only the first match. We are still not eliminated from the Champions League. We're really trying to change things up. We already tried it in training yesterday, and we’ll try it today. I am confident that tomorrow we will have every strength and chance to turn the situation around. Giving up is not our way. We are in the championship race, we are in the fight for the Champions League. We must prove ourselves. All of us, as a coach and as players.”

🎤 Thomas Tuchel on Bild's news about his words after the match with Bayer:

“I never told my players they weren’t good enough. That would be crazy. What's the point of me saying this? After such words, the coach would not go back with his team on the bus (hints at dismissal). We are together, all of us. We can do this.

🎤 The club's press attaché, Dieter Nickles, also spoke about this situation:

“That didn't happen. Just a lie. Such headlines often appear in the media world, sometimes they have a toxic effect.”

🎤 Thomas Tuchel on criticism of him:

“I completely understand her. I usually don't read at all (media, newspapers, social networks, etc.), both in good and bad times. I know that my friends and family are suffering much more. I understand the tone in which questions are asked after defeats. I understand everything perfectly, I’ve been in this business for a long time. It doesn't affect me as much as you might imagine."

🎤 Thomas Tuchel on Dayot Upamecano in connection with his sending off against Lazio:

“This week has been difficult for him. It makes no sense to single anyone out. We weren't good enough as a team. We must be better. Upa is motivated at every match and training. He likes to be part of a team, he likes to defend. Sometimes he overdoes it, but it's with good intentions. We trust him."

🎤 Thomas Tuchel on Harry Kane:

“Harry can take care of himself, he doesn’t need me. He is not satisfied with the state of affairs on the field, and neither are we. I have rarely seen such a discrepancy between training and matches. The way he takes advantage of his chances in training is simply incredible. This is a world-class player. He behaves like a real captain. All is well with him".

🎤 Thomas Tuchel about the upcoming match with Bochum:

“We need to get our lightness back. It will be hard. I don't expect a big victory. This match will be tough, a strong opponent, who has been conceding very little lately, is showing good results. Bochum played well against Stuttgart and Augsburg. I expect them to resist stubbornly. We also adapted to them in training. This is normal, this is what the team needs."

🎤 Thomas Tuchel on the upcoming matches and whether he believes in a golden double:

“It is inappropriate to talk about title chances after defeats, but you must understand that our restraint is a sign that we are not giving up. We want to prove ourselves, we have to do it. Perhaps the current state of affairs will give us a decisive push to become lighter. We will continue to develop as a team."
 
🎤 Thomas Tuchel on Matthijs De Ligt:

“Here we always think about which player is best suited for a particular opponent. In the match with Bayer we wanted to use high pressure, so in the end we decided to play the three Dier - Upamecano - Kim. This decision was made at the last minutes. Matthäus received injections in his back the night before the match and on the day of the game before that. We knew that Upa would not be able to spend the entire match on the field. It was not a decision against Matthijs. He was very close. We have 4 central defenders, they are fighting for places. We will always select those who we believe are in the best shape for the match and are also suited to play against a particular opponent. At Bayern you are fighting for a starting place. This is a completely common situation, unfortunately. What should be normal is not normal here. We have 4 players in 2 positions.”
