This is one of those times.
Michael Olise was asked to rank his top five FC Bayern players in five separate categories: pace, passing, style, free-kicks, and passing. Here is what he said: Michael Olise picks the best Bayern player at pace, passing, style, free-kicks and finishing 🎥 @postunited pic. twitter.
com/oNXxHgErjU — Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) March 12, 2026 In case you can’t see the video/tweet, here’s who he picked for each category: Pace = Alphonso Davies Passing = Joshua Kimmich Style = Jamal Musiala Free kicks = Tom Bischof Finishing = Harry Kane It’s surprising to see that Olise didn’t nominate himself for any category. While no one can really beat Davies for pace and you can’t argue against Harry Kane’s finishing, the Frenchman could be a solid choice for passing (look at his assists), style (self explanatory), and free kicks (they’re pretty decent). Then again, maybe this is part of his nonchalant gimmick.
Acknowledging his mastery in any one aspect would perhaps reduce his standing in the eyes of the fanbase. This is the life that aura farmers lead.
