In the round of sixteen of the Champions League, heavy and attractive opponents await the German teams. The votes for the draw…
Manuel Neuer (via FCBayern.TV): “We are looking forward to London. We have already made good experiences there. We are looking forward to these games. Chelsea is a dangerous team that we have to take seriously and we have to be highly concentrated twice. Of course, we want to go to the next round. We are also happy to be playing against an attractive team. We can go into the games with a healthy self-confidence, we played a great group stage and led the group dominantly. The guys on the island know that we’re here. The teams in Europe respect us. Internationally, we’re in top form.”
Thomas Müller: “We’re happy that we know what’s in store for us. The team has a European format. I feel pretty good with the draw. Chelsea has players who can hurt us. All German teams have the quality to move forward.”
Sports director Hasan Salihamidzic: “Chelsea has done very well with the young players. That is attractive. It’s a task we will of course take on and we want to get ahead.”
Coach Hansi Flick: “There are no easy opponents left in the last sixteen. Chelsea is a good address internationally. It’s clear that our goal is to reach the quarter-finals.”
