I think Jerome Boateng is a player who is often maligned more than he should be. I think KPB is the more naturally talented, but I think it's fair to say he's not been disciplined and hit his potential in his career. Jerome on the other hand is a good physical defender, a player who I'd say has played at a consistently high level for a number of years now.
That said, he's not worth the amount they are apparently prepared to pay him. I think Bayern are doing it because he's one of the senior most players left in that side and can offer consistently high levels for at least another 5 years. If they lose him, they'd have a hard time to find a good replacement imo.
