    Alfred Schreuder

    German newspaper tell that Nagelsmann wants to get him to Bayern as assistant coach for the next season.

    European Super League

    But that just makes grey black without shades. Each of the big clubs (even the smaller clubs) has some dirty laundry and has had outside help somewhen in their history. And yes, it is a business and not just sports and that survive best that combine both sides of it best. But that just does not...

    Bundesliga

    They fight for this spaces. M?ller made 44 pressures in his 83 minutes Saturday and Sane and Gnabry were busy pressing, too. It is more the style of play - that might be risky but is rewarding. You just need to look back to August - even better teams have problems...

    Bayern München

    He has not been the machine anymore since his ACL - but since then he is a very good squad player even if he somehow does not fit the "normal" requirements the coaches had. He is no ball playing 6, to slow for a box-to-box and there is better defenders. But he comes in and does his job no matter...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    What stats are this? Lewy has 35 Bundesliga goals - 6 were penalties. That does not count other competitions. Haaland has 21 - 1 or 2 penalties included. Yes, Lewy scores goals that sometimes look easy, but a lot is about timing and positioning. And to know and read what your teammates do. Who...

    Mesut Ozil

    What do you think is the difference? M?ller is the offensive playmaker with and without the ball, leads all kind of assist statistics, even provides a lot of preassists. One of the best pressers in the game. Commander and cheerleader of his team and right hand of the coach. Works hard...

    Bayern München

    I do not know if the chemistry would be the same. Lewy and Robben never were really friends to put it mildly. Mandzukic in his way was ideal in combination with the personalities of Robbery at that time. He did not steal them the "light". M?ller even at that time was the one that tried to...

    Pep Guardiola

    https://twitter.com/FCBayern/status/1359992009994469385 I guess it would be unfair today as some of the "old" legends are already retired since some years. But maybe in some years when everybody is retired...

    Arjen Robben

    But even with him you saw how important it is to build the skills into a system to complement it. He was nowhere really as good as in the triangle van Gaal build with him in combination with Lahm and M?ller at Bayern - especially after Heynckes teached him to do defensive work. From that moment...

    Jamal Musiala

    Can play as 8, 10 and winger Flick tries to give him match time in about every match. What I like about him is that he is a hard worker in his match time, too - even defensively. He is not ball watching after ball losses like his friend Bellingham at Dortmund.

    Joshua Kimmich

    I actually like him more forward or with a 6/8 partner. He is too good with his offensive contributions to work deeper. Defensively with a partner like Goretzka - that can bring in a little more muscle since the break last season but is good in both boxes, too - is fine, too.

    Philippe Coutinho

    Not if you look at understat.com - there were 1 to 3 better than him. He had an xA of 6.26 in 2016/17, 5.29 in 15/16 and 5.53 in 14/15. In the league he had 2 to 7 assists in all seasons besides in 17/18 when it was 11 - and he had assists from corners and freekicks, too. For a creative player...

    Philippe Coutinho

    He was never a great assistant and if you look at the goal/xG stats at understat.com and look at the locations of his goals you see that he just overperformed his XG massively in that time (last year at Liverpool, first half year at Barca) as he had a lot of self confidence - it might even have...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I do not like the comparison with Arjen as Arjen is a very disciplined player that fully lived a professional life - somehow like Lewandowski does it. Maybe I do im wrong with this - but the rumours around Dembele tell the opposite.

    Philippe Coutinho

    That 7:2 actually was a fluke. The first half was terrible - Bayern was lucky going into the break with a 1:2 lead after an equalizer by Kimmich and a goal from Lewy before half-time. Until then Kimmich had made 1 of 40 of his distance shots... It was 19 to 15 shots at the end of the match - and...

    Philippe Coutinho

    "I'm having a very good time," he told reporters while on international duty with Brazil. "In these seasons I have achieved many things on a personal and collective level, which is the most important thing. "I have returned to Spain with a lot of desire for things to go well and it is also what...

    Philippe Coutinho

    Actually M?ller was not in bad shape - but they had to play the shiny new toy that they got in the summer sale. M?ller showed in the some minutes (often on for him bad positions) how much he can influence the match. The media at first played that game, too. Hamann, today Sky pundit, that now...

    Philippe Coutinho

    He got less egoistic compared to the beginning at Bayern - but seldomly started the recent months. M?ller offers more with his last ball, was essential to the pressing and as second coach on the pitch - and as helper for Lewy and with his movement. As Flick knew how to get the best out of M?ller...
