"We feel we need to show a reaction. After the (Mainz) game, I said, You can't really say we played a perfect game. We conceded a goal from a set piece and a counter-attack goal.' Heidenheim will be hoping for the same tomorrow. Looking at what we offered going forward, we could have scored three, four, five goals. You can't forget that. If we had played that game 10 times, we'd probably win nine times."
"Kompany will enter the Heidenheim tilt with a thinner roster than usual thanks to injuries, interntional duties, suspensions, and illnesses. Notably, starters Joshua Kimmich and Manuel Neuer are both out with injuries, whilek Konrad Laimer is suspended. Manuel Neuer, Nicolas Jackson, Konrad Laimer (suspended) and Sacha Boey (ill) are out. Joshua Kimmich is also out tomorrow. He's still struggling with the (ankle) problem he picked up with the national team and couldn't train this week. Hopefully it's not too bad and he can return normally."
Bayern Munich drew 2-2 with Mainz 05 and Kompany urged his team to remember the lost opportunity and react against Heidenheim at Voith-Arena. Kompany emphasized that Bayern created multiple chances and believed they would win most repeats of the match, stressing a mentality focused on winning and internal performance rather than rivals. The squad faces a depleted roster due to injuries, international duties, suspensions and illnesses, with Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich, Konrad Laimer, Nicolas Jackson and Sacha Boey unavailable at various points. Kimmich is still struggling with an ankle problem sustained with the national team and missed training, with Kompany hoping for a January return. Michael Olise is fit and available. Kompany recalled having no winter break during 11 years as a professional player and two years as a coach, and emphasized the value of rest to maintain energy while players in England continue with a heavier fixture load.
