For lack of a better comparison, Thomas Müller is evocative of Nicklas Bendtner. Of course, Müller is a significantly better player than Bendtner but similarly to the Dane, Müller feels like he has tricked everyone into thinking he's world class.

Having spent his entire career at Bayern Munich, Müller has a decent record of 104 goals in 286 games. For comparison sake, German legend Miroslav Klose played 446 games in his career and scored 175 goals - meaning Müller's record is pretty damn good. That said, the best return he has ever had in a Bundesliga season is 20 goals, and that's a lot better than his norm.

In the last two seasons for Munich, Müller has scored 13 goals in 58 games. Those are some awful stats that equal Fernando Torres' output for Atlético Madrid - a player we all recognise as well past his prime. Müller is only 28 years old but his numbers are diminishing as though he'd cracked 30. He only scored 8 goals last season and was last seen boarding a plane to Russia. His rating should be low 80's at best.
