I am a relative Euro football newb. Where does this duo stand in history regarding chemistry and offensive magic? Unstoppable at times.

Guten Morgen!

This reply will be fairly biased, coming from the chairman of Fort Worth's Bayern fan club, but I'll try to keep it measured.

Lewy is, IMO, the undisputed best striker in the game currently. If not top, most everyone SHOULD have him in the top 3. His reputation is well known.

Mueller, on the other hand, has to be one of the most underrated players in the world. He doesn't do all the flashy things, but does the simple things flawlessly. Der Raumdeuter (the space interpreter) is truly the one who makes Bayern's attack go. Kovac lost his job in large part due to starting Coutinho over Mueller early in the year. Hansi Flick understands how vital Mueller is, and we can all see the results since he took over. I truly think Jurgi Lw is kicking himself for putting Mueller out to pasture for Die Mannschaft.

As far as Europe is concerned, I obviously follow Bayern more closely than any other club, but just based on stats and what you see on the pitch, the Lewy-Mueller connection has to be near the top of any duo in the game right now.

Mia San Mia!

Great post and thanks for the input.

And I have to comment.....you've been on this site for almost a decade and you waited for this specific topic to make your first-ever post? Amazing.

Haha, I'm confident I made some baseball posts back in the day, not sure why it's showing that as my first post, but have mostly stuck to Killerfrogs (staying in friendly confines, you know).

My BiL is a TexAgs regular and had mentioned there's some good European football talk, so I figured I'd come over.

Welcome aboard. There is decent discussion here.

And w/r/t your screen name, you must be using a different account because the profile for tcujsauce says you've now posted exactly twice.

That said, I'm a fellow Bayern supporter (I go to Houston chapter gatherings when I can) and will be watching today.

Right now, I think that Bayern is just a well-assembled side that is completely in stride. Like I've said in other threads, they're basically a wood chipper and whoever they're playing is just getting tossed in. It's Olympique Lyonnais today and then PSG Sunday but frankly, it doesn't really matter right now.

Welcome. You should know that this site doesn't handle umlauts, sadly.

I just add an e to the vowel instead.

Back on topic, I think Lewy deserves ballon d'or this year. It's a shame it got cancelled.

Such a horrible decision to cancel the award. Especially being 8ish games to the end of everyone's season, which every league finished outside of Ligue1.

Lewy should have been crowned. He's 3 goals away from CR7's Champions League record of goals scored during a tournament. And that'll be in less games due to the 2nd legs not happening in the quarters and semis.

#Justice4Lewy for sure. Typical of France (Football) to throw up the white flag and give up.

Houston Chapter are great people. One thing I love about the Texas fan club is that the whole state is one club with city chapters, so we do a lot of joint stuff together. If we're ever allowed to practice our 1st Amendment rights again and gather in public, you should come to the next statewide watch party (usually held for Der Klassiker). It is a damn good time.

Been to one of those in person at Allianz. Absolutely insane experience. Sounds like a fun time with the Texas group. The Houston crew is a lively bunch and have all of the songs/celebrations cued up.
