May 10th News Bayern will be awarded the Bundesliga championship this season in the weekend, and the team's legend Mueller will also have his 750th appearance at Bayern, and this is his last home game at Allianz. Before the game, the player was interviewed by the club's official website and talked about his mood.

Is it easy to focus on the Bundesliga after being eliminated in the Champions League?

"After Inter Milan experienced great disappointment, we completed the adjustment of our form well. In the next tough game against Heidenheim, we performed well and was convincing. There, we turned the disappointment into motivation and took another big step towards the championship. Then there was a victory against Mainz, while Leverkusen lost points. So, before the match against Leipzig, we felt that everything was moving in a direction that was beneficial to us."

The team was not easy to be able to handle it so aggressively ...

"On the surface, it is true, but on the other hand, we are not eliminated because we are underperformed or at a low point in the Champions League. In fact, in these Champions League games, we have many very good stages and moments. In football, especially when facing strong enemies, the results sometimes don't match the process. If the process goes well, there will be a greater chance of winning in the next game, and that's what we are doing."

13 Bundesliga championships mean to you?

"The numbers are good, but every experience of winning is unique. We focus on the current season and strive for victory in this season. Whether you win the championship three years ago or not, it is no longer important now. In the Bundesliga, winning the championship is the most important goal, which not only affects the emotions within the team, but also affects the outside world's view. Every week's game will cause widespread discussion across the country. Therefore, I attach great importance to the Bundesliga championship and am very clear about the difficulty of this event, just performing Excellent is not enough. Being able to beat opponents who are trying to beat you year after year is the real achievement. This is why we are particularly pleased to win the championship after experiencing last year's challenge. And the 13th Bundesliga title is also special for me. Even veterans like me will be excited and look forward to Saturday's game. "

Have you noticed that the fans have reacted differently to you?

"I have signed many jerseys recently, and this topic has been discussed in the media for four weeks, especially in Munich and football media. The topic about Thomas Muller has been discussed repeatedly. I feel that when I go out, it is easier to be recognized and talk to each other than ever. Everyone wants to feel the style of Thomas Muller before I leave (laughs). In modern terms: FOMO (Fear of missing out, afraid of missing out) feels very real. "

Talk about Club World Cup

" Although there is still some time before the game, I believe and hope. Many different teams and the various cultures brought will bring more colorful collisions to the game. Teams that have succeeded from many different countries have very high levels, and there are top European teams. I think that with the increase in prize money, this is also important for clubs. I am looking forward to the atmosphere we feel on the scene when the game is approaching. If we can leave the United States as the New World Cup champion, I hope we can feel: Hey, we have achieved great success again as a team."
