Manuel Neuer: We can achieve anything

Several FC Bayern players will be involved with their national teams at the 2022 World Cup. In club magazine ‘51’, our boys reveal who we should look out for from their sides, how they rate their chances and who their favourites are. Part seven: Manuel Neuer for Germany.

Interview with Manuel Neuer

How do you see your chances?
Neuer: "We have a very good team with a great mix of experience and a youthful laid-back attitude. If we play to our potential, we can achieve anything."

What’s special about your team?
"The special thing about our team is that we have very good depth in the squad, which means we can always generate momentum from the bench when it matters in a game."

Which player from your team should fans particularly watch out for?
"We have lots of key players who can decide games. I think Jamal Musiala can be one of those players in this tournament who is particularly awkward for opponents to play against."

Who are the favourites for you and why?
"The South American teams such as Brazil and Argentina are in very good form, so for me they're also among the leading contenders for the trophy."
