In the 1-1 draw against Gladbach, the Bayern stars bit their teeth off Yann Sommer.

Thomas Müller has an allergic reaction to a Lewandowski question.

Munich - This question had to come.

And of course it had to be asked of Thomas Müller.

For 95 minutes, FC Bayern Munich ran into their own stadium against the defense of Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Except for Leroy Sané's shot, Gladbach goalkeeper Yann Sommer saved everything.

In the end it was 1:1.

And 33:5 shots per Bayern.

Well, after the first setback of the season, the question of Robert Lewandowski came up after the game.

A reporter asked Müller whether he would not be missing "in such situations" for Bayern.

The 32-year-old smiled smugly at first, then replied a little annoyed: "We already have more than two questions, but I said a few weeks ago that the questions will come.

Of course it's unfortunate that that happens in a game like this."

Thomas Müller explains Nagelsmann change from de Ligt

The starting point for the question was the change from coach Julian Nagelsmann.

The Bayern coach had put Matthijs de Ligt on for Sané in the 85th minute and ordered him into the storm because of his header power.

When asked about this after the game, Müller replied: "We would certainly have taken 5, 7, 8 header goals, but that was clearly the case with Gladbach defending even deeper at the end.

And then you no longer have room for big combinations.”

That's why players with strong headers were needed.

And de Ligt just hit a head against Bochum.

But less the lack of a Lewandowski in the Bayern squad, but rather Gladbach keeper Sommer was the main reason on this Saturday evening why the Munich team did not get past a 1-1 draw.

20 shots went straight to his box, he only let one through.

Müller: Sommer "always makes the best game of the year against us"

Müller himself also missed a great header chance.

"We don't know any different that Yann Sommer always makes the best game of the year against us," said the Bayern striker after the game with a laugh.

However, “not all of our deals are now untenable, you have to say that.

Not every degree was of such top quality".

Müller has scored once so far this season and has added two more goals.

Ex-Bayern boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge had previously declared Müller the next top scorer.

24 hits were his guess before the season.

Until then, Thomas Müller still has a long way to go.

Among other things, Müller will meet Lewandowski's Barcelona in the Champions League with FC Bayern.

Further questions about the Polish attacker are therefore inevitable.
