    After a great start to the season, Bayern München have fallen into a bit of a slump with Niko Kovac's team being without a win in the past three games.

    It has been suggested that Kovac's decision to rotate players has had a negative impact on the team's form, and now he must face the consequences, Bayern München president Uli Hoeness says.

    Asked if he believes Kovac has been rotating too much, Hoeness told Tz:

    "No. That's the job of the coach, and in the end, he's putting his neck on the line for it."

    "The rhythm was lost a bit at the Augsburg game. There was a big rotation, and that messed up things a little. But I don't think that's dramatic."

    Kovac and Bayern will hope to get back to winning ways when they face Borussia Mönchengladbach at the Allianz Arena on Saturday.
