"Of all the greats such as Wolfgang Overath,
Günther Netzer, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and Paul Breitner, I believe
Gerd Muller is the greatest of them all. He was unstoppable.Bayern have Gerd Müller to thank for what the club
has become.Without Gerd's goals, we'd still be
sitting in a wood hut at the Sabener Strasse (training
ground)."
Franz Beckenbauer, his former Bayern Munich and
West Germany team-mate
"You know you've achieved everything when
you acquire legendary status in your own lifetime. His record of 68
goals in 62 internationals will stand for eternity."
Rudi Voller, esteemed German striker of the 1980s
and 1990s.
