Jamal Musiala was outstanding in the cup game against Mainz 05 and was in a great mood afterwards. The national player already knows where the hat-trick ball is kept. Thomas Müller also explains where Musiala’s goal threat comes from.
“I’m just trying to build fitness, rhythm and flow game by game. I really like the way we’re playing at the moment,” said She had to. “I’m trying to get into positions more often now to simply score goals – that was different last season.”
Coach gave impetus for better final quality
Thomas Müller confirmed that the accuracy of She had to is not a coincidence. “He played noticeably well. The coach gave the main impetus in the summer,” said the veteran. “Jamal has also decided that he will score significantly more of these goals in the box (in Penalty area, Anm.d.Red.) does where you don’t need to dribble, but where you just have to be there when you’re in that position on the pitch. We trained that in the summer. It’s nice when it pays off.”
The gates of She had to against Mainz were actually rather atypical for the 21-year-old’s style of play. If he is otherwise the type of player who plays dizzying opposing defensive lines, he will get into it Mainz two winning goals where he was simply in the right position. He even scored a goal with his head. It was his second header goal of the current season.
Musiala learns goal-scoring instincts from Kane and Müller
Trainer Vincent Kompany believes that he has learned something from his teammates in this regard: “He can learn very well in training. That’s the luxury when you work at a club like Bayern is. When you have players who do that every day in training, it’s sometimes easier. He just needs to look at the players we have – see how Thomas Müller and Harry Kane do that in the sixteen-yard box.”

Joshua Kimmich is pleased with his teammate’s development: “It’s always clever in which spaces he moves, and he’s very difficult for the opponent to grab. He can always bridge the midfield with a dribble. If he starts now to take a picture, it’s all the better.” She had to However, “regardless of his goals, he is a top player who will certainly continue to develop. We are glad that he is in our team.”
Kompany möchte Musiala “Don’t just measure by goals“
Kompany would like the performance of She had to not just limited to his goals. “Of course he can do it. But there is now the focus on goals, goals, goals, because Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo do that too. But what happened before with Zidane or Ronaldinho? There were so many great players who turned the game around even without great goals. I think we have to Jamal Don’t just measure by the goals.”
The coach emphasized again: “Ronaldinho and Zidane, these players were also crucial for their generation. He has to go his own way.” Kompany believes: “He can be one of those players even if he doesn’t score 1,000 goals.”
Advice from Müller to Musiala
It would be all the more important for him FC Bayernthat She had to extended his contract, which is valid until summer 2026. He himself didn’t want to say much about his future. “My focus in the last few weeks has been on getting fit again after the injury and getting the smaller problems under control. I have more time to think about it during the winter break.”
Müller In any case, he advises his teammate to stay. “I believe that Jamal already knows what status he has among the fans, how people love him. Not just at Bayerneven in whole Deutschland” he said. “I think he would do well to think about it three, four, or five times, if he even thinks about not staying here.”
Maybe it serves him here too Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors as a role model. So far, he has spent his entire professional career with just one team.
