March 1 Bayern striker Mane was interviewed by the German media “Sports Bild” and talked
To the Champions League game against Paris, and the feelings since joining Bayern and the Bundesliga.
Bayern vs Paris first leg
My friends and I watched the game on TV.
I was nervous and would make a lot of comments but I had faith in our players, even when Mbappe came on, he was a great player who had an impact on the game but our defenders could stop him.
De Ligt and Upamecano are big, strong, intelligent players who have improved a lot this season.
Defense is the foundation of a hugely successful season.
It is a well-known fact that Bayern has won the Champions League six times and is one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the history of the club is attractive – it was when I decided to move to Bayern.
I don’t see any team stronger than Bayern, or unbeatable.
If Bayern eliminates Paris, will the team become the biggest favorites to win the title?
It is wrong to think that no one can compete with us, and if we do, bad surprises will happen very quickly.
There are many good teams in this competition, first of all we have to play well in the second leg.
Decision to move to Bayern
I never doubted the choice, when I decided to leave Liverpool, I just wanted to join Bayern and play in the Bundesliga.
I was familiar with the Bundesliga when I was in Salzburg. At that time, I didn’t watch the Premier League, but I watched the Bundesliga. At that time, Bayern was very attractive to me.
Some media believe that the Bundesliga is a development league for the Premier League
I don’t think so, I’ve had mixed feedback from my former team-mates in the Premier League and I’m sure we’ll see more Premier League players coming to the Bundesliga soon.
Bayern are interested in Kane, he did not deny the possibility of a transfer to Bayern
The Bundesliga is very tense and balanced, looking at the table, there is a good atmosphere here.
Why would anyone reject the Bundesliga?
This would surprise me.
People often say that the Premier League is more difficult and requires more physical confrontation, and many people think so.
But on the pitch here, I noticed that the players in the Bundesliga are very strong – the physicality of the Bundesliga is at least on the same level as the Premier League.
Also, a lot of teams press high and I really like that.
I’m very happy that I made this choice and that I ended up at Bayern.
Which Bundesliga players impress you?
There are very good players here, not just at Bayern.
Muani, Daichi Kamada, Nkunku, they are all excellent players.
I’ve gotten to know my team-mates before, they’ve got quality and I see that in every training session.
Liverpool’s season
Liverpool will be back.
I’m sure they’ll get over what’s ahead, they’ve had a lot of injuries and a lot of trials, but Klopp is definitely the right man for Liverpool.
He will bring Liverpool back to life and the players love him.
Ronaldo really wants to join Bayern, you know?
This says everything about the Bundesliga and confirms what I have already said – I think you guys underestimate the Bundesliga, and the recent performances of Bundesliga teams in the Champions League prove it.
Before the start of the season, after my transfer was completed, I met Ronaldo in Mallorca.
He congratulated me and told me, “This is a great club! This is a big step for you!”
