Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has
lavished praise on Mario Gotze and admits he understands his frustration
with his playing time, Soccerway reports.
Gotze has only started one Bundesliga
match so far this season but scored Bayern’s second against Olympiacos
on Wednesday after being named in the initial XI for their opening
Champions League Group F fixture.
Guardiola insists he has no doubt over
the World Cup-winning midfielder’s ability or attitude but says it is
hard to find a place in his regular set-up given the form of Robert
Lewandowski and Thomas Muller, who scored twice against the Greek
champions.
“I love Mario Gotze, he’s a top player. He has massive quality and a good attitude,” Guardiola said.
“But I have Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller. I can understand that he is disappointed, but I’m here to help him.”
