Bayern coach Heynckes seemed relaxed at the pre-match press conference.

He said that this game is just an ordinary Bundesliga match, not a Champions League final, and everyone's attention does not need to be so high.

But the coach also said that because he hopes to be as far away from his opponents in the standings as possible, he will also use all his main players in this game and strive to win this away victory.

"Revenge? I don't have such an idea. I used my full force against Hamburg just to ensure that I got three points at the People's Park Stadium, that's all."

When the reporter asked him what he thought of Pan Yi, the corners of Heynckes' mouth twitched slightly:

"He is an opponent I respect very much. He helped AC Milan defeat us and now leads Hamburg into the top four in the Bundesliga."

"You can say that he is the best football coach of the younger generation. To be honest, I also learned some things from his tactics."

"If we have any advantage in this game, it is that the team I lead is still Bayern, but the opponent we face is not Milan."

"No disrespect to Hamburg, but Milan is Milan and this is a team that makes people feel pressured at any moment."

"So, we will beat Hamburg and hope that we can bring out the abilities and characteristics of our players in this game and then continue the momentum of undefeated victory!"

"What, you said we will try to score as many goals as possible to humiliate Pan Yi? No, no, no, how could that happen? 10:0 is the same as 1:0, only three points. If I have to choose, I would rather be 1:0 in 10 games..."

However, if Heinks was polite during the press conference, Bayern's players were not very merciful.

Especially Robben.

He missed a single shot in the last Champions League final, which put him under a lot of pressure after the game.

Therefore, he bluntly stated that he will take revenge this season!

The primary target of revenge is of course AC Milan, but they can’t meet them yet;

Therefore, Robben said that although Pan Yi was only the assistant coach of Milan last season, now that he has encountered him, he will not definitely let him have a taste of his own power.

"Yes, I hope to score goals. And, as many as I can score, preferably a hat trick!"

Robben looked confident, high-spirited and his eyes were full of desire.

When Pan Yi walked into the press conference hall, the atmosphere at the scene changed slightly.

Some reporters are relatively staunch "anti-Yi faction" and believe that the recent rounds of games are the reflection of the true level of the Dragon Country coach, so they have always looked at Pan Yi with suspicion.

Some reporters believe that even if Hamburg's recent state is unstable, it is a phenomenon often seen in a young team. It still depends on Pan Yi's subsequent adjustments before making a conclusion.

Moreover, Hamburg is still ranked fourth in the Bundesliga standings. This is already a great success for a head coach who has just coached Hamburg this season.

Look at the teams behind Hamburg, Dortmund, Leverkusen...

Which team is not better on paper than Hamburg?

Taking out Gotze or Lewandowski from Dortmund may be worth more than all Hamburg's starting players combined.

But for such a "weak team", Pan Yi has brought it to a height that it did not originally belong to, and then was criticized verbally and written for its unsatisfactory performance in a few games. It is really puzzling, and some reporters feel a little bit pity.

Taking a step back, this so-called "unsatisfactory performance" is actually just a loss in recent games!

Doesn't this also show from the side that the performance of Hamburg led by Pan Yi is far higher than expected, causing the current fans and media to treat Hamburg like the requirements of a strong team like Bayern, feeling that they need to win every game to be satisfied.

Therefore, losing a game is a "cliff-breaking performance"...

In addition, because Pan Yi is affable and his speeches at press conferences can always bring good material to reporters, his reputation in the hearts of many reporters is also quite high.

When Pan Yi came in, there were even bursts of applause in the press conference hall!

Of course, even the "hardcore" who supports Pan Yi the most is pessimistic about this game.

So, the question that comes up is basically like this:

"For the home game against Bayern, do you think there is a chance to hold on and get a point?"

Pan Yi, on the other hand, praised the Party for paving the way:

"Bayern is a super strong team. They are stable, have stronger pressure, and their overall playing style is also very good."

"They have introduced more stars this season and have become stronger, as evidenced by their nine consecutive wins at the start of the season. To be honest, I think there is no suspense about the Bundesliga championship this season, and they will regain the salad plate."

"Heynckes is a respectable old coach. He is meticulous in what he does and can put his players in the most suitable position and bring out their maximum potential. As a young coach, I can learn from him Learned a lot.”

The last sentence is of course true.

After all, Pan Yi's system tutorial also included Heynckes' related tactics, so he certainly studied them carefully.

Then Pan Yi continued:

"Oh, what question did you ask just now? Did you get points?"

"Yes, of course I want to score points. We didn't go into the People's Park just to lose."

"As for one point or three points...you guys guess which one I like more?"

There were a few chuckles from the reporters, and the atmosphere at the conference became a little more relaxed.

"They have top players in their squad, and it will certainly be difficult to suppress their performance, but we will try our best to do it."

"Mandzukic and Muller are both top scorers in the world, and Robben and Ribery can also create a lot of threats in the ribs."

"Of course I will arrange tactics to restrict them. But as you all know, if stars can be restricted at will, then they will not be called stars."

"As coaches, we only do our best to arrange tactics, but in the end the game must be played by the players. As long as it is a game played by people, there will be changes."

"And on the football field, talented players like Robben and Muller, their flashes of inspiration are the biggest variables."

"A sage named Li from the Dragon Kingdom once said, do your best and obey fate. This is the mentality I have now..."

This is how the press conference ended.

But the reporters discovered that they did not actually get the breaking news they wanted from Pan Yi today.

To criticize people, to deal with revenge, to claim confrontation, and so on.

It was more of a restrained speech and an expression of respect for Bayern.

Even a little... too respectful.

Judging from Pan Yi's words, although he didn't say it explicitly, it was obvious that he just wanted a draw for this game.

This also makes many media reporters somewhat regretful, especially those who are "positive".

It seems that no matter how sharp a young man is, his edges will be blunted after being ruthlessly beaten by reality.

When Pan Yi walked out of the press conference hall, he even heard a song that became popular in the Dragon Kingdom just this year:

"Youth is like a rushing river. Once it goes away, there is no time to say goodbye. I am left numb, without the passion of the past..."
