FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) -Bayern Munich's president says hiring Jurgen Klinsmann as coach of the German powerhouse was an expensive mistake.

Klinsmann is now coach of the United States team. He coached Bayern from July 2008 to April 2009, when he was fired.

Club president Uli Hoeness says in a newspaper interview "we spent a lot of money under Klinsmann and had little success."

Hoeness says Klinsmann used expensive computers to show game plans to the players, while current coach Jupp Heynckes needs only a few markers and a flip chart.
