The Borussia Dortmund defender has disputed Bayern’s claim of being the best team in the league and stated that his side is far more consistent.
The Bavarian giants have been in dreadful form in the second-half of the campaign and after a dismal run of results, are seven points behind Borussia Dortmund. The Munich based outfit is in the danger of losing the league title
for the second consecutive tie to Jurgen Klopp’s side which would be a huge disappointment considering Bayern’s heavy spending during the summer.
Hummels claimed that Bayern is certainly not the best team in the Bundesliga and also denied claims that the Bavarian giants have the best 11 German internationals in their squad. He insisted that the side certainly has some very
good players in some positions but they cannot field a full team for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904.
The defender’s comments refer to the likes of Mario Gotze, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lars-Bender-c21663 and Kevin Grosskreutz who have all been part of Die Mannschaft recently and are not players from Bayern
Munich.
“Bayern do not have the top 11 individuals. Of course they have the best players in the Bundesliga in some positions. But everyone knows that we are better equipped in some positions. Bayern also know this,” he was quoted as saying
in an interview.
The German international added that even if they have the best players in Germany, the performances off-late suggest that the best players may not make a very good team. Bayern have won only four of the nine games played since
the winter break in all competitions and are currently in second spot with 48 points.
“By and large they are, of course, at an advantage against any team. But that's the beauty of football: the best individual players do not always make the best team,” he concluded.
