"But I will not be asking to take one myself." Muller enjoyed a strong 2015-16 campaign at Bayern, but has yet to find the net at the finals in France.He is not overly concerned with his lack of goals, though, so long as Germany keep winning. "I will keep trying to get a goal. If it happens, it happens," the forward continued. "If we win the final without me scoring, I might not get as much credit in the media, but I will still be taking the trophy home."</blockquote>
