The Croatian believes his international team-mate has the talent to establish himself as a top player with the Bavarian giants, even though he faces strong competition for the attacking role.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ivica-Olic-c17399 feels that his countryman has the right ingredients to garner first team berth at Bayern Munich and play an instrumental role in the side’s ambition to win some silverware this season. Bayern have
been trophy-less for two seasons now and are desperate to reclaim the league title from arch-rivals, Borussia Dortmund.
Der FCB made a number of high-profile signings over the summer to improve their squad in order to compete in all competitions and win them. The FC Hollywood side were unfortunate to lose in the final stages of three competitions
last season and therefore, they have acquired more depth now to mount a serious challenge for titles.
Mandzukic, the former Wolfsburg and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/NK-Zagreb-c40070 striker, has been in good form and has impressed for the Reds after signing from Wolfsburg, and has already scored seven goals in seven games in all competitions. Olic stated that he
is happy with his former colleague settling down very quickly and taking charge of the Bavarians attack since the start of this term.
The veteran conceded that Mario is getting the goals very easily and could be the buy of the campaign for the Bundesliga giants. In terms of goals, he has had a dream start for such a massive club.
"Up to now, Mario's been practically scoring at will for Bayern,” Olic was quoted as saying in an interview.
"As a striker, it couldn't have been a better start for him," the former Dinamo Zagreb and CSKA Moscow mused.
The frontman has stiff competition for places in the forward role but Olic feels he can compete and retain his place in the Bayern line-up.
"Despite the fierce competition for a place in attack, I think he has a chance of establishing himself and playing an important role for the club," he finally concluded.
Mandzukic will be hoping to continue his goalscoring form on Saturday when his side visit Werder Bremen at the Weserstadion.
