bundesliga.com: Thomas Müller, after meeting the Pope, the next special moment is on the horizon…
Müller: You could see it that way, although there is no comparison. Meeting the Pope is something pretty special, which I'm very grateful for. Playing against Borussia Dortmund is not as special as visiting the Pope, but in a sporting sense, it's certainly extremely exciting.

bundesliga.com: A lot of people still feel that Bayern have not yet found their feet under Carlo Ancelotti, do you agree?
Müller: It's like in any company when there is a change in personnel: everybody has got to get used to each other all over again. That's the same here. When a new coach comes, he brings new ideas and new procedures and you've got to adapt to them and everything has got to come together. It's a challenge for any team, no matter what league you're in. We're extremely focused and convinced that we have improved in recent weeks and that there's still room for further improvement. The fact is we want to win every game – that's what's expected of FC Bayern.
