Nonetheless a young person, Jamal Musiala is doing issues most footballers might by no means even dream of. Bayern have rewarded his world-class play by preferring Musiala to the skilled Leroy Sane. That ought to let you know every part you have to know.
All through the previous 12 months in Europe’s high 5 leagues, Musiala is above the ninety fifth percentile in complete pictures, non-penalty xG, assists and shot-creating actions. It’s arduous to seek out anybody higher at progressing the ball ahead. He averages 0.36 objectives and a couple of.56 pictures per 90 min., statistics unparalleled for a participant this younger in midfield.
On Matchday 1, Frankfurt’s protection had no reply for Musiala’s tempo, as he constantly breezed proper by with no care on this planet. Musiala leads the Bundesliga together with his 21 duels received by the primary contest. It seems like he’s the proper participant to run supervisor Julian Nagelsmann’s system that emphasizes flexibility. A coach can just about throw Musiala anyplace in entrance of their protection and count on first rate outcomes together with his versatility.
With Bayern’s high quality, the sneak peek of combinational play we noticed on Matchday 1 was so pleasing to look at. It’s arduous to see how an opposing crew might cease this assault, besides from parking the bus to the acute. Musiala’s tempo, passing and dribbling (2.65 accomplished per 90 min.) make him the whole package deal.
