James, in his eyes, is limited to a position in the center of midfield, which makes it easier for opponents to keep an eye on him and block his game.

After Bavarian identification figures such as Bastian Schweinsteiger (Chicago Fire) and Philipp Lahm (career end) have left the club it is important to count on Mueller Sammer added. Bayern Munich needs a new identification figure taking responsibility, deliver motivation and leadership qualities. To be able to compete with additional one or two percent of quality, Mueller is essential. Mueller stands exactly for that, Sammer is convinced. Muller is the soul of the club and its future, Sammer stressed.

Likes on social media channels should not count when it comes to the value of a player, Sammer said.

Ancelotti and James have best memories when working together at Real Madrid in the 2017/2017 season. Ancelotti was impressed by James' skills, so much so that he picked the Columbian 46 times. The coach has kept an eye on him ever since.

Ancelotti pointed out that James is not only a competitor for Mueller but for Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery as well. While James and Mueller both played in a friendly against the English side Arsenal FC, problems for Ancelotti will arise after the German club's return to Munich. In the last weeks before the 2017/2018 Bundesliga season curtain raiser on August 18th, Ancelotti will have to deal with several hot-spots in his squad as all players are expected to be back for action and demand to play.
