Sometimes it amazes me that people literally give all the attention to the other members of the GNT while completely ignoring Thomas who has been massive for the national team, like man how can you not but admire someone with a career as hard working as Thomas Müller?
With Thomas' near retirement with the national team in mind I would like to review his international career.
Thomas came to the senior national team months before the 2010 World Cup in South Africa to play 2 friendlies, and when the World Cup arrived he was an undisputed starter from the very first moment at only 21 years of age.
In the World Cup, he was a key player, he scored 5 goals and 3 assists making him the winner of the golden boot and the best young player.
In 2014 he was part of one of the most iconic teams in the history of football, again being instrumental in the win that would put the fourth star on the chest, with 5 goals and 3 more assists
Winning the silver ball of the tournament and taking the cup home, the road after that was complicated but he still became the record man of this generation
With 131 caps to his name, he is the third most-capped German player.
Germany's fourth highest goal scorer at World Cups
Sixth German player with the most goals in the history of the German national team
Top assistant in the history of the German national team
With 131 games, 45 goals and 41 assists and over 9000 minutes played (every 105 approx. minutes he made a goal contribution), Thomas owes absolutely nothing to this team, he put his soul, blood and sweat and as he said it already once he did it with love, that watching any of his games you can notice and receive, so put more respect in his name the man is a living legend
And if this is the last time we see each other in an international match, thanks for the love of the game, thanks for your effort, thanks for the happiness and even for the sadness.
