‘A bit of everything’ — Tom Bischof sees opportunity in Bayern Munich role
· Yahoo Sports
Tom Bischof already has a season of running the show from midfield in the Bundesliga — last year, at TSG Hoffenheim. Now at Bayern Munich, the 20-year-old has taken a step back to being a developing depth option behind more established stars, and that has meant playing odd roles wherever he can.

But it’s not a completely new experience for him, and the youngster is determined to make the most of it.
“I trained myself to do a bit of everything,” Bischof shared in comments captured by @iMiaSanMia. “I also played on the right wing in Hoffenheim – that was new too.
“Here I’ve played at right-back and left-back. I see that as an opportunity. I’m ready to help out wherever I’m needed. And I’m slowly starting to feel good there – but I’m most comfortable when I’m in the number six position.”
Bischof’s time in the FC Bayern midfield will come. For now, the cross-training is valuable experience for the youngster — allowing him to get more minutes on the field, and expanding his feel for the game.
