"Among tactical implementation, developing players and dealing with the media, keeping a healthy dressing room atmosphere is one of the most important roles for a football manager. Managers can be strong tacticians but a failure to keep the dressing room under control could lead to total collapse-something Vincent Kompany's predecessors, Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel, learnt the hard way. In contrast, the 39-year-old Belgian manager is capitalizing on his emotional intelligence to find the perfect balance at Bayern Munich."
"First and foremost, you need to give your all in training, prepare for all eventualities and, in difficult moments, stick together as a team. Everyone on the pitch and everyone on the bench, as well as those who are injured, need to stick together and overcome hurdles together. You always have to face those in a long season. It has happened before and it will happen again. It always helps to have a team whose players help each other."
Keeping a healthy dressing room atmosphere ranks among the most important roles for a football manager alongside tactics, player development and media duties. Failures to control the dressing room can cause total collapse, as happened under previous managers Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel. Vincent Kompany is using emotional intelligence to balance relationships and performance at Bayern Munich. Konrad Laimer praises the current atmosphere and credits the squad's unity for on-pitch results. Players must give their all in training, prepare for eventualities and stick together during difficult moments. Everyone on the pitch, the bench and those injured must support each other and overcome season-long hurdles to win games and titles.
