The Ballon d'Or shortlist was out, and Thomas Mueller was not selected. It is said to be an authoritative award, but the selection criteria are questionable, after all, there are several people who can't compare with Mueller in terms of data or game status, but the result is that Mueller lost the election.
After the World Cup, Loew and Kovac chose to abandon Mueller, when Mueller's career reached its lowest point, but with The help of Flick, he eventually returned to his peak form. And now, French football has also chosen to abandon Mueller, I wonder if the latter will respond to the newspaper in the same way?
In the 2014 World Cup, the German team was eliminated in the group stage, and the "heroes" led by Müller were purged, and Löw stated that the German national team would no longer recruit Müller, Hummels and Boateng, but returned to Bayern, the three were also snubbed, Hummels transferred, Müller and Boateng were abandoned.
At the time, Mueller did run into some problems, and Loew and Kovac had three reasons to abandon him
1: The team has high status and loves to joke. Müller is from the Bayern youth training, won many championships for the team, has a high status in the club, and in the national team, he is also the hero of the World Cup, and his behavior will be somewhat unrestrained. I remember a game when Muller was replaced by Flick, and he kicked the head coach. Mueller is a very childish person, likes to mischief, Flick can tolerate him, others may not be, perhaps in the eyes of some people, this is not big or small.
2, the state after the World Cup is indeed sluggish. Germany was eliminated in the group stage, Muller and others were attacked by public opinion, his state was getting sluggish under the pressure of many parties, at that time he did not have the ability to play the main force, Loew was right to resign and welcome the new, but too aggressive, and Kovac, as the head coach, not only did not help the players recover their state, but chose the same way as Loew, abandoned.
3, and the most important point, Muller eats too much team! Mueller's best point is the running position, he plays very smart, but his personal ability is average, he needs to have a strong center in front of him, because once Mueller is targeted, the role can not be played, Loew and Kovac are eager to reform, will not because of Mueller's characteristics to accommodate him.
During that time, Müller was really going to leave Bayern, where he grew up, but fortunately, Flick was in danger, not only bringing Bayern back on track, but also allowing Müller to regain his self-confidence. Two consecutive seasons of Bundesliga assist king, Müller's form has long returned to the peak, what is the reason why French football has abandoned Müller?
What are the criteria for the Golden Globe Shortlist?
