Having said this I saw part of the Bayern DFB Pokal semi against Wolfsburg last night. I saw Mario Gomez come on in the 77th minute and by the 87th he had a hattrick. He is just such a goal scoring machine.
Why, oh why, does he spend so much time on the bench when half of the teams in Europe would give their first born to have him in their starting eleven?
I do not care about Bayern as a club, but as an individual? A footballers working life is so short and to not play half the time . . so little game time? It just appears such a total waste of a huge footballing talent.
Gripe over . . .
