Lessons from Leverkusen Defeat

We were very open defensively against Leverkusen. We have to be more compact and we can't offer too much space between the lines. In addition, we need to be brave enough to defend the forwards so that the gaps are smaller. If we manage to shrink the field, we'll have a better chance of winning more physical battles than we did against Leverkusen. We have to improve in this area. The same goes for preventing counterattacks. We have to get behind the ball faster so we don't give depth to the opponent."

Bayern Munich

FC Bayern has very good players in every position. Of course, because of the transfer saga, there is a lot of talk about Harry Kane. An extremely reliable striker. He doesn't need a lot of chances to score. This type of player fits perfectly into Bayern's system and that's what they lacked before.

Champions League Draw

We have an attractive and difficult group. There are no easy opponents in the Champions League. Every group game is difficult. Manchester United is a really big team with a great stadium. Copenhagen has a young coach and a compact stadium. Galatasaray made great transfers and it has a special atmosphere. Very attractive opponents. Dortmund's group was the toughest on paper.

Monchengladbach

An atmosphere may not suit us. We go to Gladbach as favourites, and we want to win. We want to improve our game against Bremen and against Augsburg in the second half. We have to do something and keep creating a lot of luck. We have to play with our principles. You also need some luck in the game. This is in our hands.
