Bayern Munich full-back David Alaba targets first team football and backs new signings to make an impact.
Bayern could have won a treble last season, the FCB were involved in the latter stages of three competitions. In the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund led them by eight points and managed to lift the title at the end of the season.
The Black Yellows and Die Roten met each other on another occasion, this time in the DFB Pokal final, where Jurgen Klopp’s side lifted the cup after beating Jupp Heynckes’ side convincingly.
FCB’s 2011/2012 campaign ended on a low when they lost the Champions League trophy to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, after dominating them in 120 minutes of football. The manner of the defeat was hard to swallow for Bayern players. They surrendered
the European Champions’ title to a very negative Chelsea side on penalties.
After a disappointing 2011/2012 campaign, the club made many high profile changes. Following the European Championships, Jupp Heynckes brought in reinforcements to add quality to his current squad.
The Bavarian giants’ left-back http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Alaba-c10416 reckons now his side cannot keep dwelling on the previous campaign, they have to look forward to the forthcoming Bundesliga season. He also revealed he will be aiming to play as many games
as he can and will try to remain injury free.
“It's a new year for all of us. I want to play as many games as possible. I hope it continues like the last six months,” the full-back is quoted as saying in an interview.
Bayern brought in Mario Mandzukic, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dante-c10236 and are still looking to bring in a few more.
Alaba hailed his club’s latest acquisitions and backed them to shine for their new club. He also urged his teammate to give their all for a place in Jupp Heynckes’ starting line-up.
"Very good new players have joined us. Each individual has to give it all he has and strive for a place in the team," he added.
In Alaba, the Munich club have found a young and talented full-back which the team lacked over the years. They have tried and tested many players in that position but the young Austrian international looks like he will make the
position his own for years to come.
