Kompany: Young players need to wait for opportunities. I don t know what will happen if Mueller is missing

August 15th August at 2:30 am on August 17, in the German Super Cup, Bayern will play against Stuttgart. Before the game, Bayern coach Kompany attended the press conference and talked about some of the current situation of the team.

About the importance of the German Super Cup

- In my experience, when you win this type of trophy, it becomes very important. And when you don't win it, people say it doesn't matter. I have won such a trophy several times, and every championship is important to our club, so this championship is equally important.

About Young Players

- We are very proud to bring young players like Leonard Carr from the youth training camp to the first team. But it's not just him, we even promoted some players from the U17 echelon four or five months ago. Of course, not everyone can become a member of Bayern's first team immediately. It also depends on the position, not everyone can play immediately. Moreover, not everyone can enter the first team directly, which is normal. But in the long run, we are in a positive direction in developing young players who will get opportunities throughout the season, but maybe not every game.

Regarding possible starts against Stuttgart

- I will not disclose tomorrow's start, it's not about the players' personal, we just want to win. It would not be good for us to announce the starter in advance, so we would not do so. Young players need to wait for opportunities before they can play. Please give us some time with them, and then Bayern will have a new German talented player. It's a long-term process, not about hype, but for the success of their careers.

Regarding the Bundesliga and the favorites to win the championship

- I don't like to judge other clubs. We have always dominated the league and despite having scored 80 points, as a club, we still want to go to the next level. We want to do better, and that is always our goal.

About Mueller leaving the team

-I don't know what would happen without him, he has trained with us several times. I will maintain a special feeling for him, he is very positive and passionate - I believe his influence and this experience mean a lot to his life. I can already imagine how he will make progress in the locker room in Canada, but for us, deciding who will take that locker room position is a task.
