Former Bayern Munich star Thomas Müller was known for his boisterous personality and it appears with that fervor for life, came volume in the locker room. Without Müller, though, things are more quiet — except for that rascal Michael Olise, who is more talkative in the clubhouse than anywhere else (!?) per Kicker journalist Georg Holzner (as captured by @iMiaSanMia):
There have been some changes in Bayern’s dressing room after Thomas Müller’s departure. Dressing room insiders report that things have become
a bit quieter and somewhat less noisy without Müller, the loudspeaker. Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich and Harry Kane are the spokesmen. Moreover, and this may come as a surprise, the outwardly very reserved Michael Olise is one of the talkative players in the dressing room. The Frenchman is highly valued by his teammates.
This is report is kind of interesting. Having a quieter locker room without Müller seems…about right. But Olise…the motormouth? That is a side of the player that fans have not seen.
