Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel commented on Yann Sommer’s performance in the Champions League quarter-finals against Man City for the first time on Friday.
Would Neuer have kept it?

That’s what it’s about
-
Yann Sommer was heavily criticized for his appearance in the Champions League.
-
Now his coach has spoken out.
-
He protects the goalie.
“The goalkeeper was hopelessly overwhelmed” – with these words about Yann Sommer, TV expert Didi Hamann caused an uproar after the 0: 3 defeat against Manchester City. Sommer would have unsettled the team a lot in the past few weeks, said Hamann. Nati coach Murat Yakin didn’t like that at all – he protected Yann Sommer and spoke of disrespectful criticism.
Yann Sommer was also an issue at Bayern-PK before the game against Hoffenheim on Saturday. A journalist spoke again of missing centimeters. Thomas Tuchel, the new FCB coach, replied as follows: “Of course, if Yann were 30 centimeters taller and already in the corner, he would have kept the ball.” In super slow motion, of course, you would prevent every goal. He doesn’t read reviews at all.

Tuchel is happy to be new to rehab
Tuchel did not want to go into a possible competition between Sommer and Manuel Neuer. That’s not an issue at the moment. However, he also said: “It is a great pleasure to see how Manu is in rehab.” He had already held the first balls again.
Tuchel is sure that Neuer will attack again and wants to be number 1. “He is our captain and also the captain of the German national team, so a great personality in sport.” We will support him as much as possible. However, Tuchel went on to say that this support is also due in summer. “Because he deserves it,” said Tuchel. Don’t start banging on every goal.
Bayern’s game against Hoffenheim is on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in the 20-minute ticker.
