Bayern Munich's team of the decade

Midfield

Central Midfielder: Joshua Kimmich

Whether it's marauding forward or tracking back, Kimmich has shown plenty of calibre to fill the gaps

Hailed as the replacement for Philipp Lahm, Joshua Kimmich is living up to the billing in many ways. Perhaps not the leader that Lahm was (at least not yet), but he ahs every once of talent and ability.

He's been rotated between central midfield and the right-back position just as his predecessor was, and can be just as devastating in both positions.

He looks a big part fo the Bayern future and if he continues to play this way could repeat the legacy of Lahm.

Central Midfielder: Bastian Schweinsteiger

Bastian Schweinsteiger never shied away from showing his emotions

He started his career on the wing but gradually made his way to the centre of midfield and stayed there. Bastian Schweinsteiger was the heart for Bayern Munich when he was on the pitch.

He felt the pulse of the team and kept them going with his incessant running. He took up good positions to receive the ball and play it forward. He could do a little bit of everything, including scoring some screamers from midfield.

Although, perhaps he was loved so much because you always knew as a spectator how he was feeling on the pitch because it was so visible on his face and body language.

Raumdeuter: Thomas Muller

He refused to be defined by a position and created his own

You could call him an attacking midfielder, you could call him a winger, a striker or a second striker and you couldn't be sure of it. Thomas Muller seems to have never played by the rules which is why he earned the title of "Raumdeuter".

It loosely translates to an interpreter of space and that's exactly what he's done for the entirety of his career and continues to do so.

He's done it at Bayern Munich since 2008 in the senior team and he shows no signs of stopping.
