Thomas Tuchel's brutal dressing room rant at Harry Kane and Bayern Munich flops

Thomas Tuchel told his Bayern Munich players that they are "not as good as I thought" in a brutal dressing room rant following their drab 1-0 defeat at Lazio on Wednesday.

Ciro Immobile's first-half strike condemned Bayern to their second crucial defeat in five days after last Saturday's 3-0 drubbing against Bayer Leverkusen in a top-of-the-table Bundesliga clash. Those results have increased the pressure on Tuchel, who is approaching one year at the helm in Bavaria.

And former Chelsea boss Tuchel let loose at his Bayern players in the changing room after the defeat at the Stadio Olimpico as he criticised the quality of his squad. According to Sky Germany, Tuchel said: "You're not as good as I thought, then I just have to adapt to your level."

Tuchel was asked about his future in his post-match press conference. Bayern are out of the DFB-Pokal, sit five points behind Leverkusen in the Bundesliga and are facing the prospect of exiting the Champions League. They also lost against RB Leizpig in the Super Cup final in August.

"No, I'm not worried about my future," Tuchel said. "We did everything to lose this match. It was in our hands. At a certain point we stopped believing, I've no idea why. There were many individual mistakes."

Tuchel added: "We're frustrated and angry about the defeat. I think we lost the game, I'm not sure Lazio won it. I'm not sure why we lost our conviction in the second half, but we did, and then we fell behind.

"I can't explain it because we told the team to maintain their intensity and be even braver going forward, but we seemed to lose face at the start of the half.

"There are things we can build on. In the first half, we created some good chances, some big chances and one huge one with Jamal [Musiala],
