The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 international stressed that his own scoring feat last term was useless without major honours to go with it, and said he is even ready to be used as a bench player
Bayern Munich star striker Mario Gomez has insisted that winning trophies is all that matters to him and his team members this campaign, after going two seasons without claiming any major honour. He claimed that he just does not
want to score goals only unless they benefit his side win titles.
The Bavarian giants sustained disappointments last term, closely losing out on the league title, the German Cup and the UEFA Champions League. After missing out on three fronts, Der FCB are looking forward to make amends this season
and have started brightly in the Bundesliga and Europe’s elite club competition.
The forward admitted last year was very tough, but said the team are hoping to secure the domestic league this time around. He further added that his heroics in the Champions League were of no effect, as English Premier League
club http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 beat them in the final in Munich.
"Of course, last season was a big disappointment. As with every one of us, I have the desire this year to be champions,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The attacker stated that only http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ruud-van-Nistelrooy-c31966 had previously scored twelve goals in a Champions League term before him. However, this personal accolade was not enough to help Die Roten secure a trophy.

"Before me, only Ruud van Nistelrooy and Lionel Messi managed twelve goals in a Champions League season. But all this does not replace a championship and a trophy,” he added.

"So, the only thing that counts for me this season is becoming champions," the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfB-Stuttgart-c40879 player mused.

"Our squad is so strong. Only http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 are still ahead of us,” the 2010 Bundesliga winner finally concluded.
Gomez has failed to get a starting berth this season because of the injury suffered in pre-season and the amazing form of summer signing Mario Mandzukic, but is ready for his new role in order to win the championship again.
