Only two members of the FCB squad have played more often, and only two have scored more goals - Tim Borowski is justifiably pleased with his first half-season at Bayern. “I’ve had plenty of games, so I can certainly be satisfied,” said the 28-year-old, the only new arrival in Munich last summer alongside number two keeper Jörg Butt.
Borowski chose the final match of the first half of the league programme to underline his quality as a goal-scoring midfielder, levelling the scores at 1-1 in Stuttgart. He then laid on Luca Toni’s goal to put his side into the lead with a lively thrust and precise cross. “I’d have enjoyed it a lot more if we’d come home with all three points,” the player reflected after the home side grabbed a last-minute equaliser.
