Laimer:
on tomorrow's game: "As we saw in the first leg, Copenhagen are a very good team that we will take very seriously. We will prepare well for the game. It’s a Champions League game, we have to give our maximum performance to win"
on his versatility: "It never hurts if you can play in multiple positions. There are obviously advantages and disadvantages. I always see it positively, I want to be on the pitch and play, wherever it is."
on beating Germany during the international break: "Of course you walk into the dressing room with a grin. In football it goes so quickly. Generally it's nice to win a game like that, but it was a friendly that you have to put in the right context. The big games come next year."
on the Champions League season so far: "We won all four games, that was a good start. We are on the right track, but we also have room for improvement. We go on the pitch every day to improve. We'll see how far and how good we are in the knockout games. We are on the right track and have to keep going"
on his move to Bayern: "I’ve been in the Bundesliga for a long time and knew the players. Of course that was an advantage. Everyone welcomed me really well. We have so many good players so you can learn a lot here. At FC Bayern it's all about the big things. For all of us it's just about wanting to win. You notice that every time we meet. This spirit is lived here and I feel comfortable with it."
on tomorrow: "It’s a Champions League game. Just when you hear the anthem, wear the FC Bayern shirt and play in this stadium, then you want to win. We'll try to make the evening a nice one for us."
on Thomas Müller: "I've been playing with him since the summer and I enjoy every second I get to play with him. He brings so much quality and can give us a lot as a team. We all know what qualities he has. We saw in the past years that he's one of the best players ever. You can always see that he’s still at the highest possible level."
Tuchel:
on Konrad Laimer: "You can see from the number of minutes he got how important he is for us. He always wants to play. He puts himself at the service of the team. He will always give everything for the team regardless of his role on the pitch. We knew that when we signed him. He played a lot of good games as a full-back. We're happy we have him"
on rotation: "It's a possibility. But it's still a Champions League game, we’re on a good run and we don't want to interrupt that, we had a long break from Friday to Wednesday. We're already first in the group, but we don't want to give the signal that it's less important to us. If we make changes, it's only to keep hunger high. We haven’t decided yet how much we'll rotate"
on Germany U17 reaching the WC final: "Of course we'll keep our fingers crossed for them, there are also boys from our campus there. We hope they take the last step and reward themselves with the title"
on Copenhagen: "It was extremely difficult to win there. They played a strong group stage so far. The game was close and we expect that again tomorrow"
on Thomas Müller: "He knows that he always has the chance to start. He knows my respect for him. Thomas is a legend for Bayern. I understand the discussion. The players who are playing are doing very well. Thomas remains a legend and will normally start tomorrow. Putting this situation on focus every week doesn't do anyone any good. Of course he's not happy with his situation. But Thomas will always remain a special player"
on Jamal Musiala: "Today he'll train partially with the team for 20-30 minutes and then continue individually. Hopefully he will start full training on Thursday. He’s not an option for tomorrow, we’ll have to see whether it’s enough for the game against Union."
on the development of the team in recent weeks: "The win over Dortmund was certainly a key result, and also the way we played over 90 minutes. That gave us great confidence. The return of Manuel Neuer has also been crucial. We're understanding better and better how to get our pace on the pitch. Things are clicking, which you see in our play. Off the ball we're compact and hard-working. We have to stick at it. If that's underpinned by statistics, then that's obviously nice but you have to be a bit careful with any statistic. We're at a very good level currently and are also consistent."
on Matthijs de Ligt: "My feeling is he won't be back before the end of the year."
on Serge Gnabry: "Serge is incredibly reliable, he carried us at the end of last season. He had a very strong pre-season but unfortunately got injured early on. We noticed that after his hand injury, he didn't have the ease playing with a splint. In the meantime, other players have settled into their positions. For Serge it is important to keep going. He has a lot of credit with us. Now it's time to work hard and focus on the things that make him strong, then he'll get back to the level that he expects of himself."
on Bayern's winning streak in the CL group stage: "It's a very impressive run, which almost shocked me. It shows the strength of the club and how engrained the winning mentality is. For me as a coach, it's important to see that games aren't valued differently. We need to bring the fire and passion ourselves tomorrow, which isn't always easy. The run proves we can do that. The run is an obligation to keep doing that. We're preparing for the match as if it's the last chance to reach our goals, and it doesn't make a difference where we are in the table"
on his personal development at Bayern: "I'm understanding it better every day and hopefully becoming a better coach every day. I'm also learning every day."
