Ribéry: People expect a lot of me

Table of Contents
Bayern Munich superstar Franck Ribéry admits he feels a huge amount of pressure to perform at such a massive club.

The French playmaker is a key reason behind Bayern's resurgence in recent weeks following a poor start to the season.

Ribéry missed the early stages of the campaign due to a knee ligament injury he suffered against Italy during Euro 2008.

"It's not easy, people expect a lot of me. It's flattering but I can't allow myself to relax," he told France Football.

"I have to say that it's a heavy burden to carry. At the same time though, it shows I feel good here.

"I try to bring the maximum to the club. When I was injured at the beginning of season we had a lot of difficulties.

"Since I've come back we've been better. My return was good for the team and the coach [Jürgen Klinsmann].

"The only worry is fatigue creeping in. The season is long and matches are coming along every three days," he added.

"I'd like a breather at times, that's the only concern I have at the club."
