Kompany ready for Bayern Munich’s clash vs. Gladbach.

Vincent Kompany ready to lead the Bavarians to visit Meinchengladbach in the opening game of 2025 on Saturday.

Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany has insisted the Bavarians are ready to move on in the second half of the season and are looking forward to Saturday’s clash with Borussia Mönchengladbach, Ufabet Germany reported on Friday.

Bayern Munich currently lead the table with 36 points from the first 15 games of the season, with Kompany leading the Bavarians into their first game of 2025 away to the Blues on Saturday. 

‘Now the second half of the season starts, when the title is awarded. I want to see a team that wants to improve. We want to concede fewer goals, we want to score more goals. It’s about the mentality. We want all the players to be fit. But now we are focused on the main thing, which is to win the next game,’ Kompany said.

‘For Bayern, it’s always clear, no matter where we play สมัคร ufabet กับเรา รับโบนัสทันที and how strong the opponent is, we always want to win. They have a variety of technically strong players who can take on the challengers.’

‘Tim Kleindienst has done well in attack, they have a good balance with the wingers. This club has a clear football identity, it has been like this for a long time. That always makes the game special. In general, we want to win the game.’

Kompany also spoke about Daniel Peretz and Jamal Musiala, who suffered a kidney contusion and a fever respectively. ‘Manuel Neuer is back and Daniel Peretz will be out for two or three weeks. We don’t know how long. Hopefully he will be back by the end of this month or early next month. Sven Ulreich is back as well. ‘

‘Jamal is in the group of irreplaceable players but that doesn’t mean we have other plans for tomorrow. We still want to win. Jamal will be back soon. It’s normal that we don’t have all the players available. We’ve had situations like this this season as well.’

Kompany also spoke about Leroy Sane showing improvement this season, saying: ‘Leroy has played a lot in the last few weeks. It’s not a gift, it’s because he deserves it.’

‘Christophe (Freud) and Max (Eberl) are responsible for talking about the long-term future. For me, only playing is important. What he is doing now is why he is playing.’

The 38-year-old added that he had used the break to reflect on his first six months in Munich, saying: ‘It was good to celebrate Christmas with my family. It’s the first time in 17 years that I don’t have to prepare for a game the next day. After that, of course you have to think about reflecting on the first half of the season. The first thing we saw was that we were superior, which showed on the pitch and on the data, but we also lost the game. ‘

‘It’s about finding the right balance. We continue to do what we do well. We don’t concede many goals, but there are still some things we can do better. I look back at the Barcelona game afterwards and the reaction of the club was what it should be. In difficult moments, we showed the right character as a club and as a team. ‘
