“Munich is a great city. I have lived in many cities in Europe, but I have never felt this comfortable, and my wife and children love it as well.”

When asked about Bayern’s successful campaign so far, he explained the attributes which sees them top of the Bundesliga table.

He added: “I think everyone is performing better, we are hungrier and more ambitious than before. We are that extra bit better than last year, we have the winning mentality and we are more stable, which is the most important part.”
