Kompany’s paradigm in Munich

What happened this past month in Bayern Munich This is something that has never been done at the club. And Bavarians are not like others. Their top leaders can do and undo, to express what they want without fear of what they have to say. Only in this way can we understand that in the middle of the semi-final of the Champions League they started talking about their next coach.

Perhaps this is the basis of what happened next. In the decision made about the farewell of Thomas Tuchel, Bayern had plenty of time to find a replacement, but they didn’t do things well. It was discussed Xabi Alonsoit went to Julian Nagelsmann (fired for Tuchel to come on) and it’s almost closed Ralf Rangnick, who preferred to continue coaching Austria. Inexplicably, the list of technicians who said ‘no’ became so long that the technician himself entered. Tuchelto be fired but, now without resources, they offered him a continuation which he declined.

It was then, in all the ships burned, when the name of Vincent Kompany. Something that at first seems like a joke, but it is a fact. The Belgian, who has little experience on the bench, has already confirmed his relegation Burnley in the Championship and what was unexpected was the Bayern Munich will knock on your door. In his case he did not hesitate, it was more necessary, and he accepted the position.

That’s where the paradigm started Kompany. At another club there would be an outcry by putting an ‘inexperienced’ man in charge of the best club in Germany with relegation behind him. But not in Bavaria, where the board and fans rarely show their problems publicly. The transition occurred almost naturally. It has certainly been influentially reported that Kompany has been endorsed by none other than Pep Guardiola, giving peace of mind to many. And the Belgian, who looks like he could be a good coach, needs support to solve the problems of a team that has drifted during the season and, if it doesn’t start well, it won’t be long for him to have a under his neck.
