Manuel Neuer Proud of Bayern Munich's Season Despite Difficult Finish


Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is determined to see his side fight on all fronts again next season after falling short in the Champions League and German Cup semi-finals.

Speaking to the club's ​official website, Neuer said that the Bayern outfit that achieved 14 wins and three draws over the first half of the Bundesliga season was the best Bayern he's seen since joining, and thinks they can be proud of their achievements over the last year. 

On Bayern's form at the start of the season, he said: "That was the best FC Bayern I’ve seen in my four years here. We only had a few problems away to Schalke and Hamburg immediately after the World Cup. Otherwise we dominated our opponents and showed hardly any weaknesses.

​"Overall we played top class football and dominated the Bundesliga, so we’re very pleased – although obviously we’d have liked to get further in the cup competitions.

"There’s no shame in losing to Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals, especially as we were missing so many key players. The cup exit to Dortmund was a shame, because we were actually the better team and would have deserved to win it."
