We had actually planned to praise Thomas Müller highly: as a model professional for FC Bayern Munich, who works tirelessly for the club, even though he is now more in demand as a spokesman than as a striker.
It’s san it!
Müller, who came to FCB at the age of 10, made his professional debut at the age of 18 and has now extended his contract for another season until the summer of 2025 at the age of 34, could overtake Sepp Maier as Bayern’s record player – he is still 21 appearances away from becoming a goalkeeper legend ( 706 competitive games).
Yes, my, unfortunately we have to admit that our rehearsed song of praise would have been rather mediocre in terms of euphoria compared to the German record champions of weird superlatives. For example from Bayern President Hainer: “Thomas Müller belongs to FC Bayern like the Frauenkirche to Munich. His path into the history books is paved with records.” Or from CEO Dreesen: “Müller remains the ‘M’ in ‘Mia san Mia’.”

That probably means: When Müller ends his career and takes his ‘M’ with him into retirement, Bayern’s motto will be “Ia san Ia”. Sounds like foolishness. Note: Too much praise can go down the drain.
