BREMEN: Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany called Michael Olise "a special talent" after the forward's two-goal, two-assist performance in Saturday's 5-0 win at Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga.
Olise scored in each half while setting up goals for Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala.
The 22-year-old joined Bayern in the summer from Premier League side Crystal Palace, having won a silver medal with France at the Paris Olympics.
"He's a special talent. It's a luxury at Bayern to have so many good players. Michael did very well," Kompany told reporters after the game.
"His start at FC Bayern couldn't be much better. He has to keep going this way.
"I haven't got the feeling that he's a player who feels much pressure. He just enjoys football."
Bayern have won four from four to start the Bundesliga season, the only side not to have dropped points so far.
Musiala also lavished praise on Olise, calling him "a great player.
"We understand each other very well, we talk a lot," said Musiala. "The more games we play together, the more chemistry we'll have. He's got a lot of quality."
Bayern have scored 20 goals in their past three games but should face a much stiffer test when they host Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen next Saturday.
Kane said Bayern would not change how they play to face Xabi Alonso's side, who went through the Bundesliga unbeaten last term and finished 18 points ahead of the Bavarians.
"We're Bayern and we don't change our game for the opponent. Of course it's a difficult test, Leverkusen have been doing really well but we'll go with the same mentality and attitude," Kane told Sky Sport.
"Home game during Oktoberfest, it should be a great game."--AFP
