Sneak Peek of Tuchel's Warning
What was that all about?
The Unexpected Interruption
Amidst the buzz surrounding the upcoming Bundesliga game in Cologne, Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel (50) surprisingly interrupted his DAZN interview, cautioning, "Watch out!"[^1]
Tuchel was standing on the sideline, chatting with DAZN interviewer Tobi Wahnschaffe, while Cologne was warming up on the small pitch. The close proximity of the players to the touchline prompted the Bayern coach's intervention, causing Wahnschaffe to quickly step back.
As the interview concluded, Tuchel briefly observed his opponents' warm-up before heading towards the halfway line.
Davies' Absence and Choupo-Moting's Surprise Entry
Apart from the mini-incident, Tuchel shared some insights on the squad, citing Alphonso Davies' "muscular problems," which forced the coach to be cautious with his playstyle. He also explained Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting's surprising starting position, underscoring Cologne's exceptional strength in set-piece situations. Tuchel further emphasized the importance of striking a balance between players in rhythm with their national teams and talented individuals like Choupo, who had put in remarkable efforts during training sessions that week.[^1]
