Aguero is the very opposite of Muller. Incredibly gifted but also a very stupid footballer. I wouldn't go as far as call him one of the most overrated players but I get where you're coming from.
Thomas Muller
- Thread starter Starkie_1
- Start date
He's had an absolutely shocking tournament. Didn't expect this from him at all...
Thought he might do something tonight after a poor showing so far but he didn't really turn up.
I would have laughed if anyone had told me Muller would score 0 goals in the Euros. Actually there is still the third place game against Wales right?
No third place match in the euros.
Well at least he still won the award of the first one to complain at the ref and having a cuntface. Twat.
He has never scored in the Euros before. Amazing considering he's on pace to smash the WC goal record.
him playing today was a gamble that did not pay off. although we did not have any alternatives tbf. Götze was also shocking during the tournament. I would have actually brought Podolski on.
How can you not love a man that slide tackles trophies?!
He's so lucky that he has that talent to be a unbelievable amazing goalscorer.
What is the story with Muller this season, Bayern watchers? No league goals and hasn't started three of the last four league games. Fitting both him and Lewandowski into the side has always been challenging but it seems like Ancelotti has less willingness than Guardiola to tinker with the formation to make it work.
He'll probably just come back into the side once somebody gets injured. But I can't see a player of his caliber being all that happy in the current situation.

Do you think Thomas Muller will end his career in Munich?
I've always assumed him to be a likely one club man, at least until the twilight of his career. But I also always assumed that he'd be starting league matches in the prime years of his career.
I do remember players like Hierro or Raul: beloved stars to be considered as 'burdens' at the end.
100m Euros!
'hasn't started 3 of 4 last games' is a bit misleading, as it pertains only to the league. He has started in CL and in the cup in between.
With the 4-3-3 we're playing, there's only 3 positions for Ribéry, Costa, Coman, Robben, Müller, Lewa.
Robben is now fit, Müller will be on the bench now and then.
Especially since Ancelotti is heavily rotating so far -Boateng already was on the bench too, as was Lahm etc

His clinical nature has taken a 180 this season. He needs to find his scoring boots quick. Statistically, he is actually taking a similar amount of shots as last season per game. But, things aren't coming off just yet
His worst year as a professional so far.
Still only 27. Is he burnt out mentally?
no. just in bad form and often starting in a system that doesn't suit him.
Geez, he is only 27, age wise in the prime of his career. It is simply a slump, even world class players go through them from time to time.
Would people take him over Griezmann if the opportunity arose?
I would.
I'd take Icardi, Sanchez, then Griezzy, then Muller
Of course, Griezmann is better technically and scores just as much goals, presses from the front and does most of the things Muller does at his best.
He's taller, more physical, technically almost equally good, works hard, versatile enough to be able to play striker. I am just saying, Jose will at least have a chub for him if not a full raging boner.
True, he is Jose's type of forward big, strong and has great technique. I would love it if he joined United.
Was hierro really considered a burden at the end?
I actually thought he had a season or two left in him
I wouldn't. Griezmann is the better player.
Fans have generally short memories. A player like Hierro couldn't be sent to the bench. Some here consider Rooney as a burden, no?
Last game of Maldini

What happened to him? Never rated him but he was a hipster fan favourite.
Shit form
Also, Pep seemed to know better what to make of him than Ancelotti does so far.
I would.
I wonder if we'll see a lot more of this type of thing in the future. Hazzard downed tools last year until his arse was powdered and Muller this year looks to be sulking. Di Maria plays when he wants as well. Player power is a bitch. This "the manager will be gone before me anyway" mentality.
That's not what's happening with Müller.
Never have, never will.
