The Bavarian giants’ head coach insisted that the Brazilian national is now his first-choice defender, following a bright start to his career since his move in the summer transfer window
Bayern Munich team trainer Jupp Heynckes has stressed that central defender Dante is now one of the first few names on his team list for matches. The star player joined the Bavarian outfit in the summers after impressing with former
club Borussia Monchengladbach and guiding them into the UEFA Champions League.
The veteran player has done well for Der FCB since the start of the season and has garnered a first-team role ahead of team members Jerome Boateng and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Van-Buyten-c10095. He has played in almost every game for Bayern in all competitions.
He scored a goal as well in 15 league matches, helping the club lead the Bundesliga table.
The former Real Madrid boss claimed that the defender is a crucial player for Die Roten. As a result of this statement, the other three centre-backs Holger Badstuber, Van Buyten and Boateng will have to compete for a place alongside
the Brazilian in the first-team.
The tactician stated that provided the summer signing stays fit, he will play for FC Hollywood. The coach suggested that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dante-c10236 has good judgement as he reads the game very well. Moreover, he also leads the defence because of his
commanding personality.
“If Dante is fit and healthy, he plays. He has great anticipation, he reads the play and he's a big personality,” the former Athletic Bilbao, Real Madrid and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Schalke-04-c39204 manager added.
“Dante is one of the best defenders I've ever played with," the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 national team captain was quoted as saying in an interview.
“We're a super-collective, and that's the only reason I look good at the back," the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lille-OSC-c39800, Charleroi and Standard Liege player said.
"I can’t ease off now. My hopes are rising, simply because I'm playing for Bayern,” he finally concluded.
Bayern skipper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Philipp-Lahm-c29929 was delighted with the new acquisition and said that he is a world-class player. Dante conceded that he is willing to give his all to help the side win some silverware this term.
