The official news dropped this morning and Bayern Munich has hired RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann as its next coach.This development has been expected for days — if not weeks — but the final stages of this courtship operated at warp speed and were pretty much completed in what amounted to a little more than a day. Nagelsmann will take over for Hansi Flick, who will go down as the best shot-term manager in the history of the club — if not global football. With six (likely seven within a few weeks) titles to his name, Flick won a sextuple last season and is well on his way to securing a Bundesliga championship for this season.On this episode we discuss: The big news and how we got to this point. What we might see from Nagelsmann.Whether or not Nagelsmann will be allowed to be his own coach and use his own tactics, formation, players, etc. As always, thank you for the support!
