FC Bayern is repeatedly criticized with its youth performance center. Michael Reschke cannot understand the criticism.
In the third minute of added time, coach Vincent Kompany Top Talent Lennart Karl brought in Supercup on Saturday. The 2-1 victory had to against VfB Stuttgart are only brought over time. Karl was entrusted with the short execution of a corner ball, after which his working day was over again. Little playing time for the 17-year-old who could draw attention to himself in the season preparation.
Little operational times for the FC Bayern-Youngster
Trainer Vincent Kompany seems to trust the established players more. In the past season, the youngsters got very little deployment times. The new credo in Munich is: less expensive transfers, more talent promotion. He was a youth player himself, coach Vincent Kompany always evades when he is asked about it. “It is also normal that not everyone arrives at the professionals without detours,” said the Belgian,
He is not the first coach at the record champion to be criticized for dealing with his own offspring. The BR24 users wonder if you no longer have to integrate players from your own youth performance center into the first team at FC Bayern, or how the user “Lausi” drastically expresses it: “Why do Bayern have a young campus? Only as an alibi so that the requirement of the DFL is met?”
Weinzierl about FC Bayern Campus: “One of the best Talent at all”
FC Bayern Campus has been in the north of Munich in the Fröttmaninger Heide since 2017 – with a view of the arena. There, and with it to the professional champions’ professionals, very few young kickers made it. Criticism against which Markus Weinzierl defends himself. “Our academy has developed into one of the best talent forces in recent years. Almost every second graduate with us is becoming a professional! That is an incredibly good value,” enthuses the sporting director of FC Bayern Campus in a club’s own interview.
Michael Reschke also cannot understand the allegations against the Munich youth academy in an interview with BR24Sport. He does not believe that the quality of an NLZ can only be assessed based on the permeability to the first team. “When I follow how many players from the Bayern campus play in the 1st or 2nd Bundesliga or abroad, you already have the impression that there is a good job.” Talents such as Malik Tillmann or Joshua Zirkzee generated million sums. However, some young professionals like Kenan Yildiz or Angelo Stiller lost free of charge.
Reschke: “must be extraordinary as a talent to be able to do it”
It is “easier to create the leap into the regular team of Heidenheim or St. Pauli or even from Werder Bremen or FC Augsburg than at Bayern Munich,” says Reschke and states: “You have to be extraordinary as a talent to be able to do it with Bayern.” Player advisor Jörg Nebung not only sees this problem with the record champions. “Our German talents take a little longer and, after the U19, are not yet able to dribble into a Champions League squad,” says the advisor to ex-1860 goalkeeper Stefan Ortega Moreno in an interview with BR24Sport.
Reschke knows what he’s talking about. The 67-year-old soccer specialist was a technical director at FC Bayern from 2014 to 2017. At a time when Pep Guardiola was in charge, which at that time used few young players. On the advice of Hermann Germann, the Spaniard was always open to having young talent trains co -trained, reports Reschke. “At that time we had a very strong team, were in the Champions League semi-final every three years, have become three times German champions. (…) It was brutally difficult for young players. This exceptional talent was not there either.”
FC Bayern wants to rely on Karl and Kusi-Asare
Unlike current. With Lennart Karl and Jonah Kusi-Asare, FC Bayern wants to give young people a real chance this time. Michael Reschke welcomes this step. To give young players important minutes of play when games are already decided, the expert also has a coach, the expert thinks. “You can think about whether you as a club forced this path more and also write it into the DNA of the coaching profile.”
It is now also up to trainer Company to implement this.
