Expectations were high at Bayern Munich at the beginning of the season when Anatoliy Tymoshchuk joined the club from Zenit St. Petersburg, but the holding midfielder has failed to make an impact at FCB so far. However, club president Uli Hoeness is confident that Tymo will succeed in Germany.

"I’m fairly convinced that players coming in from the Russian league need a lot of time to settle. I’m not worried because I reckon Tymo can make it here," said Hoeness on the official Bayern website.

"He’s Ukraine captain, he was with St. Petersburg, who handed us a 4-0 thrashing, he was one of their best players – and people say he’s not good enough for Bayern? I don’t believe that."

The 30-year-old midfielder has made 14 Bundesliga appearances for Bayern so far, most of them coming off the bench. Tymoshchuk has scored one goal for FCB, the 4-1 in the Champions League win against Juventus.
