FC Bayern munich

The 32-year-old Dutchman Daley Blind joined FC Bayern Munich on a free transfer in January. Here is what he said in the interview.

“I think it’s a league with a lot of strength, a lot of pace. I showed the world that we can do it – like Christian Eriksen – we showed that we can do it and that it’s possible. I think I’m a ball-possession player or defender, and I think I have my positive sides and my downsides. (Blind) I think I prefer to play in the centre of the pitch. You get more and more excited the more you speak to them. I think we did really well together and played together in the Champions League as well. Sometimes it may be a discussion point, but I always see it as a strength that I can adapt in different ways. It’s a big club, one of the biggest clubs in the world. When the opportunity came to really get at it, I was excited to get to go to this challenge. You have everything you need to adapt quickly and get to the top level.” I know if you go to a club like Bayern that the intensity is very high. “The intensity is quite high, a bit higher than I’m used to at the moment.
