Winning over the Bayern Munich dressing room quickly

The regimes of Carlo Ancelotti and Kovac came to an end when they had reportedly lost the dressing room. The dressing room at Bayern is powerful with loads of winners, who have enjoyed a lot of success with the club for a long time.

When Flick got the role, he instantly became a popular figure amongst players. Most of the German players had already worked with Flick at the German National team, so players quickly become accustomed to his philosophy, and they looked much happier on the pitch.

The players in the starting XI were happy with Flick due to their individual and collective growth. Flick’s persistence with the same group of players ran the risk of losing the confidence of fringe players. However, it was a completely different scenario, as players such as Philippe Coutinho also publicly praised him for his management and backed him to enjoy success at the club.

Flick’s man-management is top class, and it will help him when the team goes through a rough patch. His approach has surely helped Die Roten to do another turnaround, keeping players happy during this 19 games unbeaten record, which started at the end of Hinrunde. Long may it continue, happy dressing room leads to top performances on the pitch.
