On Saturday, FC Bayern achieved another comfortable victory in Darmstadt. The German champion only showed deficiencies in defense: conceding two goals against the bottom of the table is too much for Munich's demands. This opinion is also shared by honorary president Uli Hoeneß, who criticized the defensive behavior of the Reds.

He FC Bayern He comes from a difficult period that led to the early separation from Thomas Tuchel next summer. Since then, the Munich people have recovered. In the league they won comfortably twice against Mainz 05 (8-1) and Darmstadt (5-2) and with a confident performance they reached the quarterfinals of the main category against Lazio Roma (3-0). The honorary president, Uli Hoeneß, is also pleased with this progress.

The Bayern patriarch commented on Bayern's current form in an interview with the newspaper Kicker. “First of all, I think it is very good how the team and the coach are facing the new situation. “It's obvious that they have recovered and both sides are trying very hard to make the best of the situation,” the 72-year-old said.

“Individual negligence that must be remedied at all costs”

However, Hoeneß is not completely satisfied with the team of the German record champions, the honorary president is still particularly unhappy with their defensive behavior.” I still don't like the defensive behavior of the entire team. Every player has to ask himself if he is dueling as needed. These are individual negligence that must be remedied at all costs,” criticized Hoeneß.

Despite these defensive deficiencies, the 72-year-old still believes in a successful end to the season. Hoeneß mainly refers to the Champions League, as the league championship is increasingly unlikely. “If we play football with a lot of concentration, we have a chance,” says the 72-year-old coach, assessing the chances of success in the premier category.
