When Bayern's career is about to end, Mueller was interviewed by the Bundesliga official website, summarizing his time at Bayern and talking about his future.

talk about 500 Bundesliga games

"It's just a number, it's also a history. Looking back on this journey, there are many good memories, especially when you play for Bayern, you won a lot of victories along the way, so I'm full of affection for it all."

Rating this season

"I think this season is a new beginning, the direction is right, you have to admit that we have gone through many transition periods, at least for the moment. No coach and team have really reached a very harmonious state since Guardiola left. Of course, Frick led us with a very successful period, but even so, there was some friction between the coach and the club management. This season, we've seen that kind of completeness again The harmonious picture, unity between the team, the coach and the club, which was not entirely true before. "

" This season is a step the club intends to take, and I think the team's style of play is more in line with the expectations of management and fans for Bayern - direct, offensive and dynamic. But that doesn't mean that this approach is always more successful, and you shouldn't underestimate the success Tuchel had achieved last year, especially in the Champions League. We may not have won the league title because Leverkusen created a historic season. So, I know how to look at this objectively. But anyway, I think it's a good season for the club and the team. "

Talk about how the locker room affects the team" usually only when things are not going well. , I have never heard of losing the locker room if I can beat my opponent every weekend. So, from my point of view, I can't look at this issue in isolation, even if I feel this way, I won't tell you."

Talking about the reasons why Leverkusen this season

"In general, we performed better against weak teams this season. You have to accumulate these points, and we performed much better in these games than last year. I don't know the specific points, but I think the performance in the first half of last year was quite good, and maybe even better than this year. But it's always a bit unfair to put the feeling above the standings, but I do feel that we have more control when playing weak teams this year. Leverkusen played in some games It's a mistake, and it must be admitted that Leverkusen was unbeaten all season last year, which is because of this. Their performance was amazing, especially the buzzer-beating goal. Honestly, we sat in front of the TV and thought, 'I finally got a draw or lost once, right?' They scored again in the sixth minute of stoppage time, which was crazy. "

talk about winning the 13th Bundesliga title this season. "It looks good, doesn't it? Of course, taste is also a matter of habit. In my life, the championship trophy has always been a positive thing, and I look at it that way. I won my first championship in 2010, and the feeling was immediately confirmed. When you hold something heavy in your hand, it makes you feel that it's really not easy to win this trophy. Winning the Bundesliga title requires a lot of effort and you need to maintain a high level of performance for a long time. So when you win the salad plate, I think that satisfaction is more than you would in the Champions League or the Cup. But to be honest, we haven't won the German Cup in a long time, which is a bit bitter. ”
