The mood was very good and harmonic on Friday. He only showed his appreciation for Jupp Heynckes."That Jupp wants to abide by his agreement [to leave after this season] is okay. Yesterday he asked me why Hoeness said this and I told him exactly that. Then it was okay." Heynckes guided Bayern to a Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and Champions League treble in 2012-13, during his previous stint in charge.</blockquote>
