Bayern boss Kompany hits out at Sky: "Always negative stories" | OneFootball

Things are going smoothly for FC Bayern in sports at the moment. In the Bundesliga, the Munich team has won all their games so far, and they also had a convincing 3-1 victory in their Champions League opener against FC Chelsea. But while Bayern shines on the field, coach Vincent Kompany was surprisingly irritated after the 4-1 victory at TSG Hoffenheim – and sent a clear jab towards TV channel Sky.

Before kickoff in Sinsheim, Kompany answered questions twice: first for Sky, and shortly after for DAZN. While the conversation with the pay-TV channel was apparently very critical, the 39-year-old lost his temper afterwards on DAZN.

“I’ll turn it around,” Kompany began his second interview, expressing his displeasure: “I just spent five minutes talking to your colleagues, and it was only about negative topics.”

A clear statement that highlighted how much the questions about Bayern's thin squad and numerous team changes annoyed him. Instead, the Belgian preferred to talk about what he believes currently makes the difference: “We have shown joy in playing and energy so far. I want no less. We want to continue that. We want to remain offensively dangerous and defensively stable.”

When DAZN reporter Jochen Stutzky tried to lighten the mood with a joke about the left-back position and jokingly called Kompany a “magician,” the coach responded soberly. “It’s not magic at all,” he clarified, referring to Konrad Laimer: “Konny has done it before. If anyone on our team has the ability to play all positions, it’s Konny Laimer.”

After this brief explanation, Kompany put the microphone aside and headed towards the coaching bench.
