101 Quotes by Thomas Müller

Football is a game with tight results in which you don't need to be the dominant team; if you're a bit lucky and make the right decision at the right time, then you can be as successful as well.

When I play well, it is usually when I am in the centre.

I don't take the ball in the middle of the pitch and dribble past six guys.

In the centre, you play more with your back to the opponent's goal and have to move into the gaps.

As professionals, you always have to perform to the top of your ability.

For me, the Bundesliga is a stronger competition than the English and Spanish leagues.

You have to adapt and find your niche, in terms of the type of player you can become, both on and off the pitch. I always knew I'd have no chance against a 1.90m, 90kg defender in a duel, so the key is to avoid these situations altogether. You have to pick your space and time.

You always intend to do this and that, but then you have to go out and do it on the pitch.

When we're up 1-0 after 88 minutes, I don't sprint to the sidelines to take a throw-in - I expect that I and my team will be smart.
