Bayern Munich needs players who can create something out of nothing, stretch defenses, attack space and provide another source of goals and assists. Daz brings all of those qualities.In addition, Daz brings insane production to the table as well. The 29-year-old had 26 goals and 23 assists in 51 games across all competitions last season. His value goes beyond the numbers, too. Bayern Munich have several talented attacking players, but Daz offers a different profile. His directness and willingness to take defenders on can change the dynamic of a match. When Bayern Munich are facing a compact defense and struggling to create space through the middle, having a player capable of driving into the box from the wing becomes extremely important.There is also the matter of squad depth. Bayern Munich are competing on multiple fronts, and relying on the same small group of attackers throughout a long season is not realistic. Injuries, rotation and fatigue will inevitably play a role. Keeping Daz gives Kompany another proven option who can start important matches or change a game from the bench.Perhaps most importantly, Bayern Munich should be thinking about continuity. Daz is already familiar with the club, his teammates and Kompanys expectations. Moving him on would create another hole that would eventually have to be filled.Bayern Munich should always listen to reasonable offers for its players, but Daz is not someone the club should be eager to lose. If the goal is to remain competitive at the highest level in Germany and Europe, keeping Daz should be a priority.Join the conversation!Sign up for a user accountand get:New, improved notifications system!Fewer adsCreatecommunity postsComment on articles, community postsRec comments, community posts
