Among other things, Müller was referring to the counting of his bets.
On the other hand, he is happy about the career mark of 300 goals in the Bundesliga, which he reached on Saturday in Stuttgart. “When you get older and have been around for a long time, the anniversaries naturally come bit by bit. That makes me happy and happy,” said the 33-year-old on Sky.
