Very similar comparisons tbh.. Lampard had a decent time at Derby, but Chelsea was a jump too far although he did great qualifying the top 4 in his first season with a transfer window ban.

[@thierryhenry674]

There are 3 criteria to make someone a top tactician in modern football. Learn complex tactical ideas from a young age at a tactically extremely sophisticated academy like LaMasia. Did not play kick and rush football in his playing career. So he can develop a tactical mindset to build up step by step in a methodical way. This is the most important one. Played as a DM/CB/GK (a central role at the back) for, or work with PepGuardiola, the greatest tactician in football history who revolutionised modern football. So he gets the opportunity to learn the most advanced, complex and sophisticated tactics in modern football. Capable to divide his tactics into thousands of pieces/details and feed/pre-instruct them into his players. Capable to control every single positioning and movements of his players like playing tactical chess under a microscope.

[@Delboy0]

People are criticising this move because they only understand it on superficial level of they have hired a coach who got relegated. If Bayern could pick any coach in the world to take over the team it would be Pep Guardiola. He has made it clear he is never going back to Bayern. So then you target a Pep disciple who plays the same way. Arteta and Alonso are not going to join Bayern, so you go for the Pep disciple who is obtainable and has potential to be great and speaks fluent German. Kompany’s style will work better with Bayern players than Burnley players like Jack Cork. It is definitely a risk, but I wouldn’t be surprised if made Bayern win the league.

[@junioradult6219]

It was still atleast there 4th choice

[@FullstackDeveloper-hh9jw]

Exactly. The man may not have been an assistant coach under Pep, but he was Pep's captain for years at City. It is a risky decision, but he won the Championship with 101 points as recently as two seasons ago. Speaks several languages, was a ball playing CB, so he can improve the weakest link of Bayern which is their defense and how they play out from the back. Might fail, might work.

[@heikostiefel7778]

Moreno is right. It's not about teaching Müller or Kimmich how to kick the ball, it's much more about the general mood in the dressing room, about how Bayern works. I don't know anything about Kompany as a manager, but I know that he will be the very first who speaks all languages of the players perfectly (German, French, English, Dutch) and even some Spanish. I hope the board gives him a fair chance and stands behind him. Some players certainly need a kick in the a$$.

[@keenancerff5359]

I think he’ll do well With the players at his disposal at Bayern, he will shine

[@SAAmanat]

Burnley had clear pattern of plays. Even when they were losing during the first half of the season the players missed loads of goal scoring opportunities. And Kompany’s football was easy on the eye. The rhetoric that Kompany played under Pep and hence that influences Bayern’s decision is straight from the book of amateur who has says something because there’s nothing else to say as he has done no research. Well done Nedum!

[@mydancinglife730]

Thank you and agreed. You could definitely see what Burnley were trying to do and Kompany knows how to work with players, having played at a very high level himself.

People hating on Kompany are just simple-minded noobs. Xabi Alonso had a very average managerial career with Real Sociedad B before he got appointed as Leverkusen manager. Kompany managed to promote Burnley from the Championship to EPL, whereas Xabi failed to do so with Real Sociedad B. Kompany is actually a good manager, but he just didnt have the resource with Burnley.

[@jascha2765]

Well, the difference is the Pressure. The Entire World will look at Kompany and Bayern and if they lose one Match the Fans will start to riot. They wont give him the Time to do his thing, thats the Difference between Bayern and Leverkusen

I get you but comparing two people is comparing apples and oranges to me bayern are taking a huge gamble it may work out it may not

[@razbigranicu]

If we are going to criticise Xabi for his failure with Sociedad B team, then we could also say that Sean Dyche managed to get Burnley to European places, where as Kompany got them relegated. But, nobody would actually prefer a dinosaur like Dyche over Kompany, so to discredit Alonso like this is really stupid.

You can't compare Bayern and Leverkusen at all. Leverkusen has a much quieter environment. A trainer can work there in peace.

Especially because a certain Mr. Hoeneß keeps getting involved. Not a club for young aspiring coaches. My guess is that if Bayern bring Kompany in, he will be fired by the winter break and Eberl with him.

Why not? You can only have success at Bayern as a "finished article"? Flick took over as an assistant coach and won 6 trophys in one season, Ancelotti joined Bayern and failed (more or less). The only coach that was expected to work at Bayern and did was Guardiola and even he was criticised cause he couldnt get past the semifinals three times in a row.

It is very brave of Bayern Munich to appoint Kompany as he's a very young, inexperienced manager who hasn't exactly stood out from the crowd of managers but.......... he's far from stupid, has a defined style and footballing philosophy and is a proper decent bloke. I hope he does well, I really do, but I do fear for his career and reputation within the game if it all goes south.......... which I think it will.

[@user-hh8tf4tb9q]

Great player but still learning his trade and moving to Munich maybe 2 or 3 years to early.

[@davidt3956]

I'm seeing this after they've already announced Xavi is gone and Flik is coming. Can't wait to see Ale respond to that.

[@atp5400]

We always think a famous name as coach is a guarantee for success. Thats bollocks, look at Tuchel at Bayern. Xavi at Barcelona ecc. There are plenty of examples. I think this is a good move. And I am glad a big Club like Bayern takes that risk.

[@Peggyg13]

If it was Eddie Howe or any other English coach am sure ESPN will be more understanding.

[@goalkeeper484]

Good choice. Give him a chance. Bayern has to make a turnaround inside and for that a new, inexperienced but hungry coach is perfect. The only thing he needs is time and calmless inside the club, especialy Hoeness has to be quiet.

[@michailadonis]

Give the guy a break he will do he's best at bayern even though I'm a man united fan I think kompany will do the job he has a great personality and he's a great coach.

[@LikkisGhana]

How did this happen OMG

[@sihelambala-eu5nw]

Kane: "What did I ever do wrong"

[@Slinky82]

They are obviously looking at the style of football Kompany wanted to play at Burnley , but he just didnt have the personnel to execute it in the premier league. I think he may shock a few but yes it does seem like a mad appointment at the moment

[@treyjohnson8557]

This team is pretty stacked. If he can get this offense going then they should be great. Hope so for Kane’s sake.

[@brexistentialism7628]

Chances this will end in a disaster are at least 40%!! With all due respect for Kompany, a move from Burnley to Bayern is too crazy. I have a feeling the Bayern bosses wanted a coach of colour to better reach and improve the players of colour at the club because they kept lacking something in the last few years (Musiala being the exception).

[@unknownusername9414]

4:00 comparing Championship to premier league is just nuts fam…

[@daviddenham1511]

Stop confusing a great player with a great manager!……..have people not learnt?…….Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard,Solsjkaer etc etc…….the list goes on

[@GameoverUK-YouTube]

Why can these skype broadcasters can't get a decent mic?

[@angelotroseboom1186]

Pls sign sean dyche now, he got burnley to european football! Get louis van gaal, he kept united playing possession football (but still not winning any games for straight 10 games, just like kompany)

[@TheWhisperCorner]

Kaye + Shaka = I'll come back tomorrow.

If you really look at it Bayern have not been turned down as much as the media like to say. 1. Alonso: He just had one of the best club seasons ever with Leverkusen so staying with them is much more a decision in favor of Leverkusen rather than against bayern. 2. Nagelsmann: Nagelsmann has a European Championship coming up with Germany in his homecountry which is one of the most exciting tasks you can have in world football. Agreeing on something with Bayern before the tournament starts could potentially jeopardize its success. Moreover, there was some opposition among the Bayern rank against Nagelsmann. So again his decision is in favor of Germany and not really against bayern (who also were never 100% in on Nagelsmann return). Rangnick: Same as with Nagelsmann. Bug tournament coming up with lots of potential. Again, in favor of Austria not against bayern. 4. Tuchel: Bayern simply did not want to offer what Tuchel wanted, which indicates that they have something in the pipe for the coming years 25 or 26 (Alonso, Guardiola, Klopp?) 5. Emery: Aston Villa literally rebuild their club and installed friends and colleagues of Emery from Villareal to make Emery happy. no way he is leaving when they do all this for him. ----> in sum: all of these managers had really good situation going which would be stupid to leave for any club or in Tuchel's (and partly Nagelsmann's) case were not wanted as much by Bayern. It's not about not wanting to coach bayern munich it is more about the value of what they already have. media just loves to hate. Y'all gonna be real quiet when bayern starts to dominate again

[@Dr.fiddle]

Kompany will eventually become a winner some day but not with this Bayern team. Bayern needs a quick fix, Kompany will be under pressure & it could be all over for them both in 4momths. Unfortunately for Bayern they're not used to being turned down. When the desired is unavailable the available becomes the desired.
