Muller, who is currently working for the White Waves of Vancouver, gave an exclusive interview to The Athletic and talked about Bayern and his new life at the FA.

Return to Munich during the international match day to train with Bayern. Will this reunion intensify the nostalgia?

Muller: "I don't worry about things that I no longer have in my life. That's too stupid. I focus on the Central and North American Champions League and the arenas we can reach. My teammates described the journey of the last Champions League to me, and it was a crazy journey."

How to stay competitive at an advanced age?

Muller: "I am competing with myself and trying to stimulate my physical potential. It's not easy. For example, if you have to soak in 8 degrees Celsius ice water for 7 minutes, some parts will shrink into a ball."

Reasons to choose Vancouver?

Muller: "When you can compete, fun arises. Because victory itself is boring, if you knew you would win, what else is it?

" It is important for me to be competitive. At my stage, it would be meaningless if I just went to the club to spend time and played volleyball on the court. Those things can be done without joining a professional team. ”

The reason why I can quickly adapt to the American League?

Muller: "I am not the kind of person who will surprise, because I never preset expectations. This has always been my way of thinking. ”

How to change the White Waves in Vancouver?

Muller: "It takes time. But to be honest, the teammates are open-minded, willing to accept advice, eager to make progress, and have very outstanding qualities. I can help them better play these traits on the court. This is more about game wisdom, physical posture and psychological decisions. For example, when you need to take the risk of shooting, you must be decisive even if you are only 50% sure. Maybe you score a goal, maybe you kick it away, but you have to take action. If someone chooses to control the ball and is unwilling to take responsibility, the golden ball will never be able to do so in this situation. Even O'Neal had to execute a free throw. It's more important than teaching them to pass. These young men can run and endure hardships. ”

The current situation of the German national team

Müller: "There are indeed a lot of troubles around the German media and the team, but losing two goals in the qualifying match has no decisive impact on the prospects for the World Cup championship. But we all know that Germany has not been the top in the past 6-8 years. France and other teams entered the finals many times during the period, while Argentina won the championship in Qatar.

"We are still competitive, but the focus should not be limited to the coach's goal declaration. I fully understand Nagelsmann. If you can win, you can make a public statement. This does not mean that he believes that we must win or be the number one hottest. We need to interpret this sentence seriously rather than over-interpret this sentence."

Alfonso Davis was also a player in Vancouver White Waves

Mueller: "If you want to be a world-class player, you must win a major championship. Even if you have peerless talent, you will not be worthy of this title without winning the championship with the team. So Alfonso needs to make a breakthrough with Bayern, or lead Canada further in the World Cup. I have seen their last two games, and the team is in good shape. He only needs to follow Kompany's guidance, and I think Kompany has greatly helped him improve his understanding of the game."

Is there a perfect golf quadron?

Muller: "Perfection? I don't know what perfection is. Maybe you know? Maybe you are the only person in the world who knows the standards of perfection.

"I will choose Beckenbauer. I have seen him many times, but I haven't talked deeply. He had left Bayern when I entered the first team, and I only knew he was a great player, coach and a TV commentator. It would be great if I could talk to him about football and life. Beckenbauer, Mueller, Woods and Schaffler…”
