FC Bayern – Thomas Müller jokes about Robert Lewandowski: “Asked if he’s not fit yet”

Against Hertha BSC, Robert Lewandowski delivered another gala performance in the Bayern jersey. After FC Bayern’s 5-0 (2-0) victory, in which the Pole contributed three goals, Thomas Müller explained with a wink the development of his team-mate, who gave him the ball with his opening goal in the penalty area.

“I asked if he was not fit or if he had reached the next level because he was suddenly letting balls in the penalty area for someone better placed,” teased Müller after the game Sky, after all, you get “nothing on paper” if you don’t touch the ball. In a short dialogue, they “agreed on the next level,” said Müller.

“He notices that when he plays more selflessly, that we still serve him and that he scores his goals,” added Müller. “That’s the crazy thing, then he’ll do a hat trick in passing.” Above all, the extraordinary qualities of the Pole impress Müller anew every time: “He has a nose, then he has skills – left, right, head, body, he knows where a ball is going, where it can be dangerous.”

In fact, Lewandowski has recently developed further according to his own assessment. And: “I’m hungry,” said the Polish international striker: “I feel very good physically – probably better than a few years ago.”

He is no longer interested in records, even if he won the next against Hertha – he was the first Munich to score in 16 competitive games in a row. “I’m focused on my job, it’s important that the team play well – that helps me too.”
