Germany boss Jurgen Klopp made his feelings clear on what he saw as bizarre tactical decisions…

Germany manager Jurgen Klopp criticized Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany's tactical use of Harry Kane during Bayern's 2-2 draw with Arsenal. Speaking to DAZN at half-time, Klopp questioned Bayern's defensive approach and Kane's positioning without the ball, specifically noting his surprise at seeing the striker involved in the midfield press. When asked about Klopp's remarks following the match, Kompany dismissed the criticism, refusing to answer the question.
Klopp also criticized Bayern's defending on Arsenal's opening goal scored by Eberechi Eze, noting a lack of pressure on the ball. Despite the critique, Kane expressed satisfaction with Bayern's overall performance after scoring his team's second goal from a penalty kick. The tactical disagreement follows previous tensions between Klopp and Kompany over player deployment, including the use of Nathaniel Brown.
