Julian Nagelsmann has been with FC Bayern for almost a year.

His impression: Something fundamental has to change here.

Even outside of his team.

Munich - Julian Nagelsmann is known for his comparisons of the football world with other areas of life.

He recently earned a flying visit to the Schwabing emergency services with his statement that FC Bayern is not like the volunteer fire brigade.

After the 3-1 humiliation in Mainz, during which the Munich penalty area flared up several times, the coach in the belly of the stadium of the old and new champions now tried to draw parallels with the economy.

Because for the 34-year-old it is clear: A lot has to change at FC Bayern.

And apparently fundamental.

"You can't always do the same thing.

Every DAX company that wants to be one of the most successful companies is also familiar with this phenomenon,” stressed Nagelsmann, who will soon be celebrating his one-year anniversary on Säbener Strasse.

Nagelsmann and FC Bayern of the future: "That's the point where we have to change something"

During this time, he apparently recognized not only from some uninspired appearances: "If it then seems as if we have to do a service and it's not really the passion anymore, then that's always a point where we change something have to.

And that's where we are right now." It is important: "You must not miss the point then.

It's all about this."

As is well known, the team is in the midst of upheaval, with the departure of important players such as Franck Ribéry, Arjen Robben, Thiago, Mats Hummels, Jerome Boateng and David Alaba.

In addition, the impending farewell to Robert Lewandowski.

But Nagelsmann's plan isn't just geared towards the footballing staff: "It's not just about the team, it's about general things.

It is normal: when a company has been successful for decades, there is always time to change something.

That's not bad at all."

Nagelsmann wants to renew FC Bayern: "I'm not a reminder either"

Rather, he added: "It's about the big picture.

I'm not a reminder or anything.

I just want us to continue on this successful path.” So is Bayern's youngest champion coach the impetus to turn the biggest club in the country upside down?

After all, there are now new faces at the top after Uli Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, who have ruled for decades.

Herbert Hainer as President, Oliver Kahn as CEO.

He did not reveal what concretely Nagelsmann had in mind.

There is an approach, he couldn't elicit more.

Quite nebulous from the coach, who is under contract until 2026.

But it's not just the fans who can be excited about what's going to happen with the Reds in the coming weeks and months.

On and off the pitch.

Nagelsmann had recently made it clear that the championship alone cannot be his claim.

Which of course also applies to the club.

But apparently he fears that there won't be much more in the future - apart from the DFB Cup, of course, if FC Bayern, which is also a commercial enterprise with its AG, doesn't follow his ideas.

Nagelsmann and the many defeats: "Too many of the same way"

In any case, there were “too many defeats on the pitch this season.

Too many in the same way.

Even today.” He also has an explanation for this, which Nagelsmann does not share at least with the public: “I say that internally, I tell that to the team.”

For a long time it was always said that at Bayern the players would not be signed primarily according to the wishes of the coach.

But above all with the ulterior motive that they fit the club's philosophy and don't go straight to the bank after a change.

Perhaps no predecessor had as much power as Nagelsmann apparently had in mind.

Ultimately, he subordinates everything to success.

That's what it's all about.

And by the way, being able to stand up to important comparisons yourself.

With the great coaching icons of FC Bayern.
