Poor performances at Bayern Munich are getting into the head of coach Thomas Tuchel. The Bayern boss briefly lost his cool on the club’s training session on Thursday as he smashed a training pol in half out of frustration. The new Bayern boss has already lost three games since taking over from Julian Nagelsmann in April and the pressure on his shoulders is clearly increasing.
Several images on social media popped up, showing Tuchel snapping the pole. It has been suggested that the 49-year-old was very unhappy with the presentation of his players during a routine training exercise. Tuchel tried to correct the pattern and player movement at times, but didn’t receive the respons he expected. Tuchel then grabbed the pole before snapping it in half.

Tuchel’s outburst is the latest showing that things aren’t going as planned at Bayern at the moment. The club sacked Nagelsmann out of the blue in April due to a poor relationship with the club’s management and since then Bayern has been knocked out of the Champions League and DFB Pokal, whilst they have also lost the lead in the Bundesliga to Borussia Dortmund.
