The Spanish international insisted that he does not know if he will start the next Bundesliga clash against Wolfsburg, but is relishing the challenge to break into the first team on the back of his strong performances.
Bayern Munich new boy Javi http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468 is settling well at his new side and is hoping to get another start in their league match against Wolfsburg on Tuesday. The young prodigy is happy to fight for his place in the team, and is aware
of the tough competition for places in the team he will have to overcome.
The 24-year-old added that he is not sure of starting the upcoming game, but believes that he needs to make more effort and improve as a player as well. He admitted he is still a long way from becoming a top player and has the
potential to succeed at a big club like Bayern.
"I don't know if I'll start. I have to train hard and try to get better," he was quoted as saying in an interview.
Moreover, the former Athletic Bilbao playmaker stated that Die Roten have cover at every position, and the midfield area has a lot of quality with world class players such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luiz-Gustavo-c22844
and himself in the squad. He feels that the strong competition will be beneficial for the league leaders.
"We have very good players in every position, including deep midfield where we have Bastian [Schweinsteiger], Luiz [Gustavo], Timo [Anatoliy Tymoshchuk] and me. That's good for the team," he mused.
Die Bayern also have the versatile http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Toni-Kroos-c35425, who has been utilised as an attacker this campaign, due to a surplus of central midfielders. Kroos has gained a regular spot in the side due to his impressive
displays. The 22-year-old scored three goals until now and was instrumental in their win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 last week.
"Toni has been handed a great talent. He needs to find the incentive. He needs to understand that voraciousness himself," Sammer finally concluded.
Bayern sporting director Matthias Sammer feels that Kroos can become a great player if he continues to develop at the current rate.
