Thomas Müller: “FC Bayern is probably the hottest team in Europe right now" | OneFootball

The current form of record champions Bayern Munich has greatly impressed the Bavarians' former club legend Thomas Müller. 

“FC Bayern is probably the hottest team in Europe right now. Not just in terms of results, but also performance.

“This dominant style of football is really fun to watch,” explained the 36-year-old, during an interview after a Vancouver Whitecaps match. 

"Despite the time difference, I still watch Bayern games as much as possible. Firstly, because I feel a deep connection to FC Bayern in many ways.

“I still have a direct line to the team. Secondly, to see where the bar is set in international football,” the 2014 Wold Cup winner added. 

Harry Kane also received extra praise from Müller, but the German gave a diplomatic answer as to whether Kane is the best striker in the game. 

“That he [Kane] puts up such numbers doesn't surprise me. But the way he does it – defending as an all-round player, distributing the ball, finding through balls – is truly impressive.

“I'm often asked if he's currently the best player in the world. In my football world, there is no single best player – too many factors play a role.

“But if there were a best player, he would be a very strong candidate right now,” said Müller, with his characteristic grin.
