Muller angry after Bayern defeat

However, Metro UK reports that Muller, who came off the bench in the second half, refused to blame Thomas Tuchel for the result.

"There are of course some symptoms on the pitch," Muller told Sky Sports Germany.

"To quote Oliver Kahn… what I miss from our players are the balls in the game. We have a mentality in our game, especially with the ball.
