Ancelotti dismisses 'crisis' talks at Bayern

Carlo Ancelotti admitted he was disappointed with Bayern Munich's performance at Eintracht Frankfurt, but says it's too early to describe the situation as a crisis.

The defending Bundesliga champion saw its winless streak stretch to three matches after failing to overcome Eintracht's late equaliser.

Despite sitting atop the Bundesliga table with a two-point advantage over FC Koln, those accustomed to seeing Bayern dominate German competitions have described the situation as a tailspin.

"I wasn't happy in Frankfurt, I made that clear, but I don't want to punish the players - I just want them to understand," Ancelotti told reporters.

"It's too early for the word crisis, which I am now hearing, we haven't won our last three games, but we still played well. We aren't magicians and we will have a different attitude against (PSV) Eindhoven."

Ancelotti added that he has gone back on his word to reorganize the starting XI, saying that the team needs a change in behaviour instead.
