Ivica Olic Pleased With Bayern Munich Form
The Croatian forward is quite satisfied with Bayern's good run of late...
By Stefan Coerts
“It’s a nice story how we have performed since my return to the match squad, but I’m just pleased it’s going so well for us as a team. We’d dropped far too many points in the Bundesliga, but we’ve fought our way back now," said Olic on the official Bayern Munich website.
"However, we’re not first yet, so we have to keep on working hard, especially as we basically have two games a week from now until the end of the season. That’ll drain our energy, but we have a large, high-quality squad. The likes of Franck Ribery and Miroslav Klose were subs against Mainz last weekend.
"Obviously, everyone wants to play, and everyone’s good enough to play. We’re all classy footballers. I’m in the team for now and all I can do is give everything to keep it that way.
"And if I do occasionally start as a sub and then come on later, I’ll do my best for the team. Our success as a team is always the most important thing to me."

It's 4-0 Milan and Arsenal are looking like a second division team here!
Lets go over to Sergio Stanco now, who has an update for us from San Siro:
"After the third goal was scored the Milan fans began to sing “whoever doesn't jump is an Inter fan!” and the entire stadium burst into dance.
"A rather concerned looking English colleague turned to me to ask for reassurance, such is the level of excitement here tonight!"
Olaleye Samsideen Olamide said: “I don't think so. Not with the way the Gunners are playing. Lets see what happens...”
Athos Gomes Fonseca was less forgiving, stating: “Arsenal confirmed as football's biggest joke.”
Harmed Hordeday Dewale on the other hand, said: “Arsenal can still come back and score, but only if Wenger gets rid of Ramsey and Oxlade-Chamberlain is added to the attack.”
Fair play, Harmed. But what about this atrocious defending we're being subjected to?
And that takes it to 3-0 Milan! Robinho makes full use of a slip from Vermaelen on the edge of the area, utilising the space to good effect, lashing home to... dare I say it... put this clash beyond doubt.
Great finish from the Brazilian!
