Bayern Munich midfielder Tom Bischof used to known for his play a No. 10, but now, the former Hoffenheim star considers himself much more of a No. 8 or a No. 6.
“I’m flexible and feel comfortable in central
midfield, whether as a No. 6 or No. 8. It’s important that I can always make an impact. As a number six, I always had an opponent behind my back. That helped me progress. I have good technique, vision, and my strength is my left foot. I’ve learned to use my body properly. I have to work on my speed, the acceleration in the first few meters. I also want to improve physically,” Bischof told club magazine Säbener51 (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Bischof seems to have goals for his progress and with the performances that he has had so far in Bavaria, he seems to have the right mentality to embrace the challenge ahead of him.
Bayern Munich is cruising and heading into another Champions League, so let’s take a look at the factors that have powered the team so far.
Harry Kane has been a beast, the squad is driven, and — by and large — personnel decisions have worked out well. Let’s get into all of that and more on this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works Show. This is what we have on tap:
- Why has Harry Kane been better than ever? (Less need for him to work in build-up, better complimentary players around him — losing Sane and Coman was massive, more aggressive attacking game plan and sometime more direct, truly the focal point
- Is it possible that Harry Kane will stay at Bayern Munich? He is not dismissing the possibility.
- Yes! We avoided a #BayernKaren situation. We are rejoicing this in Philadelphia.
- Tying up some loose ends — let’s check in on Leroy Sane, Kingsley Coman, João Palhinha, Paul Wanner, Mathys Tel, and Adam Aznou.
