Thomas Tuchel has a clear plan until FC Bayern’s summit meeting away against current Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen. The 50-year-old said in an interview with “We want to arrive there in a good position to at least overtake the “Werkself” in the game.ESPN“. “That’s why we have to do our homework now.”

His team is second in the table, four points behind Bayer 04, although Bayern are one game behind. The canceled home game against relegation-threatened 1. FC Union Berlin will be rescheduled for January 24th. The Munich team has to compete in Leverkusen on February 10th.

“But the situation is also clear: we have everything to lose. You can win everything,” said Tuchel about the duel Bayern against Bayer, defending champions against challengers. “This time it’s a title split and they are extraordinary. “But you shouldn’t forget Stuttgart and Leipzig can also make a run at any time,” emphasized Tuchel.

For their part, they would always play against a certain perception. They should have been at the top, they should have done it that way, they shouldn’t have lost the game. And it should have been easier for her. “But it’s never easy,” said Tuchel. “It helps us sharpen our thoughts. I hope it doesn’t block us.” There is no shame in being the hunter. “But it will be a difficult task.”

Tuchel on Kane: On the pitch he becomes a shark for FC Bayern

Tuchel also sees the 41-goal record of former Bayern professional Robert Lewandowski (35) “in danger. Nobody would have ever thought that,” he said and laughed heartily. Harry Kane (30) has already scored 22 goals in his 16 games with Bayern in the Bundesliga.

Lewandowski had 41 goals at the end of the 2020/21 season, setting a record. They need a bit of luck and Kane has to stay fit, said Tuchel, emphasizing: “I clearly believe that there are no limits for Harry.”

Lewandowski moved to FC Barcelona in the summer of 2022, Kane came to Munich from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer of last year. “It’s a gift,” said Tuchel about working with the captain of the England national team. He feels privileged. “Whatever you tell him, he does it,” explained Tuchel and said of Kane: “He is so humble, but on the pitch he becomes a shark.”
