'A special player': Bayern stars full of praise for Tom Bischof | OneFootball

Tom Bischof celebrated his starting eleven debut in Munich in the Bundesliga on Friday evening. The youngster was able to impress across the board. After the match, the Bayern stars raved about Bischof.

Surprisingly, Tom Bischof was named to the starting lineup for FC Bayern’s home game against Werder Bremen on Friday evening. The left-footer was able to fully put himself in the spotlight during the 90 minutes, and the summer signing also set up Konrad Laimer’s final goal to make it 4-0. A successful starting eleven debut for the national player – and the FCB stars saw it the same way after the match.

Joshua Kimmich praised the skillful midfielder and emphasized: “He was good. I thought he needed a bit more time in the first half. The longer the game went on, the more he found his rhythm, gained confidence, and became more offensive. He set up the goal excellently.”

In this context, Kimmich highlighted: “He has enormous qualities, especially in the final third. He played very well, especially in the second half and towards the end of the game.”

Bayern captain Manuel Neuer was also enthusiastic about Bischof. “He always gives everything in training and is a special player who can be very dangerous in the penalty area. With his debut in the starting eleven today, he has taken a big step – for himself and for the team,” emphasized the five-time World Goalkeeper of the Year.

Bischof himself was also more than satisfied after Bayern’s 4-0 victory. “It was great. I am very happy to be able to play my first game from the start here. The coach told me early today that I would play, but I already sensed yesterday that I would probably get my chance. It’s easy to play here because everyone gives me good feedback and helps me. I really enjoy it,” explained the midfield all-rounder.

Interesting: In the Bayern dressing room at the Allianz Arena, Bischof has taken a very special place. The 20-year-old now sits in the spot where FCB icon Thomas Müller used to sit. When asked about this on Sky, Bischof said: “It’s an honor for me. He was a great player here. Plus, with Stani, I have a great neighbor. So everything is just perfect.”
