86 - Normal
What should i say? He´s amazing. Many people dont like him. But he´s great. Yes you can´t outpace the defenders. Yes you can´t make fancy skills and destroy the defenders. But is this necessary? Nope. Play Müller like he plays in reality and you will win your game. I play him with a hawk chemistry style. Yeah i said pace isnt necessary. But sometimes its nice to have. ^^ And without hawk he´s a little bit slow and yes its sometimes frustrating. But with hawk you can compensate it a little bit. He still doesnt feel like a 84 pace attacker. But he´s faster than without it and it makes a difference because it gives you the space more you need to score the goal. In combination with his positioning and finishing he´s an amazing striker. But dont forget his passing. Not many strikers have 81 passing and you can feel it if you compare them with Müller. Next to his striker qualities he´s gives great assists. I combined him with Kruse IF as a CF and Müller infront of him. Together they are absolutely deadly. If Müller doesnt score he gives the assist to Kruse and the other way around. But you have to play Müller like in reality. Do weird stuff, run weird ways. And you will have success like müller has in reality. If you always want to outpace the defenders its difficult. Then you should Werner for example. But i noticed its good to combine him with fast wing players like Coman, Sterling or somebody like them. Ribery also worked well but you should try as many players as possible in combination with Müller until you have the right partners. A little bit negative is his heading for me. He´s 186cm so he should be tall enough to score some headers but sadly he doesnt do it. Otherwise it isnt so bad because he will make his goals for sure. I noticed that he isnt a expert for longshots or finesse shots. Dont know why but Kruse is much better in it. All in all Müller is a great striker for his money.
