Ulle:
Sven Ulreich: “We knew it would be a very difficult game because we’ve always had a hard time here in the last few games. We were very efficient up front. We’re happy we won the game, I think overall we played well”
On his save denying Lee’s header: “What can I say. I’m just happy I saved it. That’s what we train for”
Ulreich on his role once Manuel Neuer is back: “I’m happy that Manu will be able to get back on the pitch soon because I really like him as a person. I’ll then sit on the bench and support Manu so that he plays a good season. Of course it’s always nice to be on the pitch, but my role is clear. When Manu is fit, he plays”
Tuchel:
Thomas Tuchel: “I think we created a lot of chances in transition where we were sloppy and negligent. We then needed a wake-up call and then a bit of luck to get a deserved win. Matthijs is coming back from injury, Jo Kimmich was sick, Leon is also not fit. Overall it was a good win, I’m very happy, although we were a bit sloppy. But Mainz also did well”
Tuchel on Goretzka: “I’m a bit worried about Leon and his hand. I hope it won’t end up like with Serge”
Tuchel on Goretzka: “Leon played very well today, just like he did against Freiburg, and scored a very decisive goal to make it 3-1. Now we just hope the hand injury isn’t that bad.”
Thomas Tuchel on Uli Hoeneß saying there will be no ‘major transfer offensive’ in January: “If the boss says it, then it’s true (laughs. We can’t afford a major injury crisis. Otherwise, we’ll keep our options open. We are completely convinced of the quality of the squad. Players like Minjae play every game, here and with the national team. Now all we can offer is regeneration, regeneration, regeneration”
Tuchel on Mazraoui: “We spoke to him, also briefly with the team yesterday before training. I only have partial knowledge of the subject. This is a matter that goes far beyond football. We trust in the good spirit of the dressing room. I continue to have trust in the person of Nous - misunderstandings can happen. This topic will probably still follow us for a while”
Kane:
Harry Kane: “We started the game well and went two goals up early on. But the goal we conceded shortly before half-time changed the situation for the second half. Luckily we scored the third goal quickly, which helped us a lot. Overall it was an important win” [fcb]
Harry Kane on Sven Ulreich: “Sven is a fantastic goalkeeper. Everyone here works hard and does everything they can to keep a clean sheet. We didn’t manage to do that today. But it’s important that we have this mindset” [@CMoffiziell]
Thank you for the post.
Anyone else feel like Musiala is trying too hard. He can’t dribble threw everyone all the time. Hope he matures quicker!
Thanks for posting this.
I’m really hoping Leon’s injury isn’t serious. He’s been hot and cold this season so far but has played well and the team is very thin already.
