Scores at striker Muller scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 victory versus Wolfsburg.

Impact Muller returned to the front of the starting XI and got straight back on the scoresheet. It's been a mixed season for the veteran, but he still remains one of the elite options. Muller will likely remain leading the line or in attacking midfield in all matches, making him a consistently strong option.

Lackluster in draw Muller failed to take a shot in 70 minutes of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Spain.

Impact Muller has yet to take a shot through two World Cup games, presenting a disheartening picture to continue his poor form since before a hip injury. While still a key member of the lineup, it's worth putting more attention on Jamal Musiala among the creative players for Germany.

Trains as expected Muller (hip) took part in full team training Saturday, according to Kerry Hau

Impact Muller returned to full team training Saturday, as expected. The attacker is racing to be fit for Wednesday's World Cup opener against Japan, where he would be a crucial part of the attack. Muller is a possible option in multiple roles for Germany when fit and available.

Set for team training Saturday Muller (hip) is set to return to team training Saturday, he announced via Instagram.

Impact Muller returning to team training is a major boon for the German national team, but with their World Cup opener set for Wednesday it's possible Muller won't be fully fit for a role in the starting XI. The options behind Muller are varied, if manager Hansi Flick intends to use him as a striker then Niclas Fullkrug or Youssoufa Moukoko could slot into the starting XI. If Muller is instead used in his more natural role in attacking midfield it would likely be Mario Gotze or Kai Havertz who steps in to replace him.

Still training separately Muller (hip) trained on his own during Tuesday's session, the DFB announced.

Impact Muller is still slow in his recovery from a hip injury that has kept him out for five straight games. The absence of Timo Werner means that Muller's role could be even more important in the German squad, though he's not asked to score as many goals. Additionally, the return of Mario Gotze adds another dimension to bring the winning goalscorer from the 2014 World Cup.

Out Saturday Muller (hip) will miss Saturday's match at Schalke, according to manager Julian Nagelsmann.

Impact Muller will get just one more chance to play before the World Cup in Saturday's trip to Schalke after missing a fourth consecutive match, though it's now likely he's saved for Germany's efforts in Qatar. As Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has scored seven goals in the last six matches, there's been little to miss about Muller's injury-related absence aside from his own exceptional talents.

Hopeful to return before World Cup Muller (hip) won't play in Saturday's trip to Hertha Berlin, according to manager Julian Nagelsmann. "Thomas can hopefully return next week."

Impact Muller will get a couple more chances to play before likely joining the German camp in preparation for Qatar, and those will come Tuesday against Werder Bremen and Saturday at Schalke. Until he's back, there's not much to worry about for his club while Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting remains in hot form with five goals and two assists in his last five matches.

The attacking midfielder is likely to be included in the German national team, unless his hip injury proves far more serious than originally considered.
