The full-back has little doubt the midfielder's exit will not affect FCB's style and expects Wolfsburg to be their main rivals in the race for the Bundesliga title
Philipp Lahm has insisted that Bayern Munich will not change their style of play following the departure of Bastian Schweinsteiger to Manchester United.
The influential midfielder had been a key figure at the Bundesliga champions over the past decade or so, yet Lahm is confident they have what it takes to cope without the 30-year-old.
"I do not think we will change our style of play because of Schweinsteiger's exit," Lahm said at a press conference.
"We have our own style and it does not depend on one individual player.
"We have the squad to challenge for top honours again. We have strengthened in certain areas, just like a big club should.
"We will see whether this is the strongest team toward the end of the season."
The ex-Germany international went on to stress that he sees Wolfsburg as Bayern's main rival in the race for the Bundesliga title.
"Wolfsburg are obviously one of our main rivals. And both Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen are pretty stable as well.
"It will be like any other year. We want to win the league and we will see which teams can keep up with us until the end."
