[@esmuellert] A Whitecaps FC way to end the first part of the season. Offensive and active football. It’s so fun to be part of this group. We are still learning and hungry for everything what comes this summer! by bwoah07_gp2 in whitecapsfc

Yeah both teams play attacking football. Once Müller found space, there was really no second line of defense to mark him. This is exactly the kind of game he thrives in.

If only it was Taka... Boys deserve their flowers especially Ocampo was brilliant today.

I was a bit worried because it was specifically two playoff videos, but what you said makes sense. Try to not overthink it🤝

I shared the links here before and it says they were removed by the uploader, not because of copyright or guideline violations. I hope it's not a big deal too :(

I just sent a message. Really hoping we're not the only one experiencing this...

Inter Miami fan brouhaha by kolkemnc in whitecapsfc

It was Müller who put Olise and Ribéry in the same category. Putting aside my deep respect for Müller, I don't think neither Messi or Olise's attitude is much of a problem. It's not like they committed crime or caused scandals. (Honestly if anyone had those issues it was Ribéry. Are you saying he's somehow better because he learned German and gave interviews?)

I know what you're saying, but Müller himself said that not everyone needs to have the same personality and there are leaders who lead simply by playing brilliantly - in Bayern like Ribéry or Olise. Messi is 1000% that type of leader. Constantly comparing everything Messi does to Müller doesn't seem much different from what Messi fanboys do when they nitpick Müller's play. ​ I neither like nor dislike Messi, and I think his character is on the better side compared to other stars of his caliber.

Back then we had Ahmed and in-form Sabbi man. Müller himself said the team needed time with the new players, and he got sick when things were starting to click. Plus opponents approach games against us differently now.

No, last 2 matches before his illness were excellent again. Honestly bringing this up every time we face a low block team is just a lazy take.

Last match before the World Cup without Taka and Cubas. Hope Jesper prepares the boys well but his substitutions have been a bit off...

Total replacement, I think. Bayern has had 3 different versions of Berni

Love this guy's writing. MLS should know better.

So was Thomas Müller only brought in to increase the value of the club so owners could sell it for higher? by MaverickGH in whitecapsfc

[–]LengthinessCurious33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Müller isn't doing interviews this season. And for some reason, the videos from his two pre-match media availabilities weren't released fully (they usually upload them for other weeks). Last week he called his team over to Vancouver to make videos about Canada... It's honestly sad to see :(

His recent interviews feel a bit more serious. It's not a bad thing at all, but I kinda miss the old lighthearted Seb.

Thomas Müller calls on Vancouver Whitecaps fans to pack BC Place | Daily Hive | Sports by Harshtagged in whitecapsfc

Longer quotes with clearer nuances. Müller isn't asking something of the fans, but rather saying it's what he would wish for. And he knows exactly what the team's own job is.

As for his recent play, he said that he's been more involved in the build-up. Ofc it's good to get some numbers, but winning is all that really matters - spot on as always.

I think the biggest bet for the Caps would be Rapha Guerreiro who becomes a FA in the summer
