Hasan Salihamidžić (before the game) on his relationship with Flick: "It's perfectly normal. The topic is perceived by you differently than by us. The fact that Lucas Hernández is back on the bench today is also a decision of the coach."
Salihamidžić on Tolisso: "What Coco did is of course annoying. That will have consequences. We talked to him, he knows he made a mistake. He'll have a fine that he will feel"
Salihamidžić: "Upamecano? We're of course thinking about the player. We met with his agents and had very good and professional talks. Now we have to see what happens"
What are your plans for the central defense next season?
Salihamidžić: "We have to plan for next season. We have our ideas and we will pursue them"
Salihamidžić on Roca's starting XI debut: "He should play his game. He has the ability to resolve tight situations, he should play with confidence. He proved at the U21 European Championships that he can work under pressure."

Herbert Hainer in BamS interview: "It was an incredibly intense year. In terms of football, we were as successful as never before and with many great moments, but also many challenges due to the pandemic. Overall, I think we've been doing well for the past 12 months"
You spoke about a loss in income of €100m last year. Will things get even worse?
Hainer: "The number you mentioned is correct and up to date. The €100m loss is primarily due to the lack of fans income. We will certainly not generate a profit in the current financial year"
Things are even worse for other top clubs. Are Bayern winners of this crisis?
Hainer: "We're leaders in economics even internationally. We have no debts, we own our stadium 100% and the campus is paid off. We are well positioned and will be stable going out of this crisis"
Hansi Flick: "Both teams wanted to play football today, Manu made some good saves. We have now won four games in a row, got twelve points and played a good game today, even if not everything was great. I am satisfied" #FCBTSG
Flick: "The team got back on track after two defeats in a row. That's what distinguishes a great team."
Flick on Tolisso's tattoo: "Hasan said everything about that. This is an absolute no go for us. He is very sorry, it happened, it cannot be undone. I talked to him"
Bayern announce that Corentin Tolisso has been fined after breaching the club's Covid guidelines. In addition, the player will not be part of the training squad for this weekend.
Rummenigge: "We are very grateful that the Bundesliga games can currently take place despite the Corona situation. Players, coaches and staff members have to adhere to the rules of the DFL's hygiene concept in an exemplary manner."
KHR: "Corentin Tolisso has violated these guidelines, although our sporting management continuously and clearly communicated these guidelines internally. This violation is very annoying and cannot be tolerated."
Hansi Flick: "Javi Martinez and Leon Goretzka both tested positive for covid-19 and are not available to us for the time being. They are in quarantine"
Flick: "Alexander Nübel suffered a ligament injury in his ankle yesterday and will be out for two to four weeks."
Flick: "Things are looking good for Tolisso, we are planning to have him back with the team on Sunday. Nianzou took the next step in training, but we have to be careful, it was his second serious muscle injury"
Lucas Hernández being benched against Schalke despite his strong performance against Augsburg raised question marks within the club's leadership. Hernández remains in competition with Alphonso Davies for the left-back spot with David Alaba undisputed at CB [@Plettigoal, @SPORT1]
Davies, who is experiencing a drop in form this season, continues to enjoy the confidence of Flick. The latter wants to give Davies confidence and game time in order to get his form back, because in his top form, the Canadian represents the game Flick wants to see [@Plettigoal]
Hernández, whose mentality is hugely valued by Flick, played well vs Augsburg, but is too inconsistent in his performances & often reveals weaknesses in the build-up game. However, Lucas could get another chance v Hoffenheim after Davies failed to impress vs Schalke [@Plettigoal]
