This is worth watching just to see Thomas Müller say the word "swag."

Thomas Müller uses his passport as a phone to dodge questions from the press
A lesson in social avoidance from a true expert
Arriving back in Munich after Bayern’s winter training trip to Doha, Thomas Müller really did not want to speak to the reporters waiting at the gate. So like many people do when trying to avoid unwanted social interaction, he pretended like he was talking on the phone. Unlike many people, he decided to use his passport instead of his actual phone to achieve this ruse.
Though it might seem strange at first, this is actually a stroke of genius. How can reporters ask questions when they’re too busy laughing/questioning your sanity?
It’s quick thinking like this that got Müller to the lofty heights of being the Directing Manager of Carrots.
Thomas Müller butchers “Silent Night”
If only it was a little more silent…
The festive season is upon us and Thomas Müller is here to make your ears bleed a merry shade of red.
Appearing at a Bayern Munich fan club gathering, Müller did a duet of the holiday classic “Silent Night” (with a USA medal around his neck?). And, well, let’s just say that if they were carolers outside your door, you would immediately call the police.
Forgetting the words at the end was a fitting touch.
After hearing this, the Bundesliga might want to rescind their winter break so Müller has few opportunities to sing over the holidays.
Getting drunk on fake beer with Thomas Müller
Bayern held their annual Paulaner lederhosen photoshoot and, as per usual, Thomas Müller was the standout performer.
Thomas Müller doesn’t want Xabi Alonso to be cold
After playing 120 minutes in Bayern’s incredible comeback against Juventus and being scarred for life by Pep Guardiola threatening to cut his balls off on Wednesday, Thomas Müller was given the day off Saturday as the Bundesliga leaders faced Cologne. As a result, his focus went from scoring goals to caring for his teammates on the bench.
When Xabi Alonso came off in the second half, Müller was there to tenderly wrap him in a coat so he wouldn’t get cold.
“Karim Benzema never did that for me,” Xabi thought.
Thomas Müller provides dog sound effects for Philipp Lahm interview
Thomas Müller once again proved that he can always be relied upon to do what’s needed for his team when he scored the only goal in Bayern’s win against Werder Bremen. And after the match, he demonstrated this in another way by providing a timely dog bark while Philipp Lahm praised his “dog’s nose” to the media.
There is nothing Thomas Müller can’t do.
Thomas Muller says it’s harder to win in Bayern training sessions than in Bundesliga matches
Since teammate Dante couldn’t take his brand of gentle ribbing about the most painful moment of his life, Thomas Muller has now turned his banter gun to everyone else in the Bundesliga with a statement that isn’t all that surprising, but still hits where it hurts. By saying that Bayern Munich’s training sessions are more difficult than their matches against Bundesliga opposition.
From Sportal:
“We have a very high level in training,” the Germany international told the DPA news agency.
“The defending team are part of Bayern and it is often more difficult to win against our training team than perhaps against a team in the Bundesliga.
“[This is] precisely because the tactical level is identical because, of course, everyone has the same understanding.”
At the top of the table with an 11-point cushion during the winter break, Bayern are once again making easy work of the Bundesliga. If this continues much longer, the German football association might have to create a new top tier where Bayern just play against themselves every week in order to keep things interesting.
Dante asked Thomas Muller to stop making jokes about Germany 7-1 Brazil
We all know people who like to take a joke too far and run into the ground and for Brazilian defender Dante, Bayern Munich teammate Thomas Muller is that person. In the wake of Germany’s 7-1 win against Brazil at last summer’s World Cup — the loss that devastated the host nation and plunged it into a chasm of unending despair and sadness — Muller apparently decided it would be super funny to repeatedly stab Dante in his open wound.
In an interview with Globo, Dante said, “After [Germany] were champions and we came back, Thomas Muller, who always likes to play here and there, made some jokes. Then I came to him and said, ‘We can joke, but for me that’s not cool, it’s not time yet.'”
Dante added that Muller then apologized to him and the jokes about that game ended right there. Or Muller and the rest of the German players just started saving their jokes about it for after he leaves the room.
And now that Dante has made this known, opposing fans in Germany will probably make whatever Muller said to him seem comparatively compassionate.
