Bayern Munich kicked off its preparation to face Heidenheim this weekend with a public training session.

The Bavarians are coming off of a very disappointing 2-0 loss to archrival Borussia Dortmund, so the coming days will be key for figuring out how things fell apart so quickly and making the necessary adjustments to get the squad back on track.

Head coach Thomas Tuchel has his work cut out for him:

Sane's early exit Social media went into a frenzy on Tuesday when Bayern Munich star Leroy Sane appeared to exit the training grounds early:

After a short time @leroy_sane leaves the training ground. It was unclear why.

Theories began to run wild on social media as to why Sane left the training ground. People guessed everything from the winger having a tantrum to him having an accident in his pants (oh no!) to him being injured to him duckwalking to avoid having an accident in his pants (oh no!).

The speculation is more wild around Sane than usual after he appeared to be frustration upon being removed from the match against Dortmund.

Maybe, though, he was just done and the sprinkler system came on in the area where he was working out? Or maybe there was a more logical reason.

Later, it was revealed that Sane and Kingsley Coman left the session early for load management purposes:

Here is a novel thought: Maybe, have Sane sit out this this week against Heidenheim if he is not feeling at his best (physically, mentally, whatever).

Guerreiro, Pavlovic return to team training Raphael Guerreiro and Aleksandar Pavlovic got back to work with the larger group in team training:

According to a report from Sky Sport (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Noussair Mazraoui missed team training, while Manuel Neuer worked out individually:

Noussair Mazraoui did not train with the team today. Manuel Neuer worked individually today and is expected to resume goalkeeping training Wednesday or Thursday. Neuer could be available against Heidenheim on Saturday, but the priority is to make him ready for Arsenal next week.

It would later be revealed that Mazraoui was ill.

Neuer works out individually Manuel Neuer got in an individual session:

Before the public training begins, Manuel #Neuer continues to work individually on his comeback.

Musiala returns Jamal Musiala left Saturday's loss to Borussia Dortmund a bit banged up, but all looks good:

Jamal Musiala trained for the first time today after the incident with Julian Ryerson on the weekend and was able to complete the entire training session. Although he was still cautious at times going into duels it didn't look like #FCHFCB would be in danger.#FCBayern pic.twitter.com/6prwIoBPyK
