Tuchel set to stay in jobBayern lose 3-0 to LeverkusenFive points off top spotWHAT HAPPENED?
Bayern were completely outplayed by Leverkusen and looked short of ideas as the league leaders romped to a 3-0 victory. With Bayern already out of the German Cup and with the league title slipping from their grasp, pressure is mounting on Tuchel to turn their fortunes around. However, he has been given a vote of confidence.

, Dreesen said: "Nothing has changed [with Tuchel staying].
"We knew it would be a difficult game but now we have to look ahead. Deserved defeat, but we won't give up.“
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Despite heavy investment in the summer, Tuchel's side have struggled for consistency and their usual ruthless edge. Even with a record-breaking Harry Kane in their side, the German champions have been left chasing a still unbeaten Leverkusen. A change of management may have crossed the Bayern hierarchy's minds but they are yet to pull the trigger on Tuchel.
