Bayern Munich: Michael Olise’s new masterclass

Michael Olise didn’t come to Bayern Munich to entertain the kids. Since signing this summer, the French international has been scoring with every stroke of his paw, and it didn’t take long for a technical affinity to develop between him, Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala. Already a scorer in the Bavarians’ 6-1 win over Kiel last weekend, Olise got back to work on Tuesday against Zagreb (9-2), with a double in what was his baptism of fire in the Champions League, and even in the European Cup.

“I think he really plays a big role, which is not easy when you arrive in the Bundesliga and at a club like Bayern. He will take other steps. For me, it was not so bad that he went to the Olympic tournament because he arrived in very good shape at Bayern Munich.”smiled Vincent Kompany yesterday, on the eve of Bayern Munich’s match against Werder Bremen. And this Saturday, the Frenchman’s performance further established his credentials: a double, two assists, and a great influence on his team’s offensive animation.

Bayern Munich are rolling at the start of the season

First scorer of the match (23rd, 1-0), then decisive passer for Jamal Musiala (32nd, 2-0), the former Crystal Palace player again stung after the break. It was he who, after a formidable relay with Harry Kane, allowed the Englishman to score his only goal of the evening (57th, 3-0). At the crossroads of all the influences, he made it 4-0 three minutes later by sniffing out the poor clearance from the defense (60th, 4-0). Behind Harry Kane, involved in 15 goals, Olise is now the second most decisive Bavarian player (5 goals and 3 assists). “Olise? He’s a great player. We understand each other very well, we talk a lot. The more we play together, the better it will get. He has a lot of qualities.”praised his teammate Jamal Musiala after the match on Skyaware of the offensive strength of his team, which has already scored 29 times, all in 6 matches. Our attack is very good at the moment. We have a lot of quality up front, stability in midfield, we enjoy what we are doing.»

In the process, Vincent Kompany also highlighted the performance of his new recruit: “ He is a special talent. It is a luxury at Bayern to have so many good players. Michael played very well. His debut at Bayern could not have been better. He must continue in this vein. I don’t have the impression that he is a player who feels a lot of pressure. He just loves football. “A state of form that can feed a hint of optimism, as much in the Bavarian ranks, as among the Blues. There is already little, if any doubt about the presence of the Frenchman in the next list of Deschamps, in ten days. There too, Olise will want to shake up the established order, while Dembélé and Coman have never given complete satisfaction in his position.
