German Youth Discussion Thread Vol. III [R]

Hrubesch calls jordanov.

With great coach and so much talent around him I expect Jordanov to show case his natural talent.

The U19 game is cancelled due to the Frankfurt airport strike. Lufthansa flights to Croatia were cancelled.

Where did this Yordanov guy become a sensation? What is his background? Sounds Bulgarian.

Bulgarian father, German mother if I remember correctly - native Rostocker.

Germany u21 vs Greece u21 just started. 3 great attacking moments already from Germany. Gundogan hit the bar in one of them. Great combination between Gundogan and Rudy in the other one. Exciting stuff. I dont understand why Lasogga is started instead of Beister but they will still win.

Another brilliant attack with Rudy making a very good shot in the end and the goalkeeper making a good save.

Good stuff from Jantschke... but the team looks a bit disorganized. Is Holtby officially not eligible for the U21 anymore?

He just came back from a long injury and that's why he wasn't nominated. Leitner also not part of the squad due to injury.
So this team is missing Herrmann, Leitner and Holtby...

I kinda feel bad for Kevin Trapp and Oliver Baumann. Both good GK, who will not likely play for the senior NT.

That's great isn't it? I mean such versatile in such a young age. Could be the little Lahm.

Germany u21 were spectacular in the first 20 something maybe 30 minutes but after that it just did not feel right. I dont know what happened. They still had a lot of good moments and chances to score. Gundogan looked like Zidane out there. Really fantastic performance from him. It's shame he cant score a goal to save his life. Maybe he should take shooting lessons from Okan Aydin( [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hX4ntt3sHs"]Okan Aydin Skills & Goals HD 1080p (Official Okan Aydin Support) - YouTube[/ame] ). And I wonder if Sebastian Rudy has Andrea Pirlo as his role model coz he plays exactly like him and he has a long hair too. He needs to bulk up and with experience and a good coach he can become a really really good player.

Just wanted to point out that Bellarabi has now scored against Bayern and Barcelona.

Told ya so, and all

Looks like a terrific talent in the making, very young too.

Did you really tell us anything about him ? I must have missed that.

Arab technique with German discipline and all that, eh ?

Probably because this was months before you joined BS

I never noticed any "Arab technique", though, whatever that may be.

I joked about that because Oezil once said that he has made it thanks to his Turkish technique and creativity and German discipline.

Turkey is Eurasian.

Turkish and Arabic peoples are completely different ethnicities...

Serge Gnabry seems to develop very good at Arsenal. He's already a regular in the reserves (up from the u18s). Here's a little highlight video of his game last week against chelsea reserves. It's not spectacular but you can see the potential. And he's only 16!

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fq89zTk804"]Serge Gnabry vs Chelsea[/ame]

Serge Gnabry has played a lot of Reserve games already and has impressed in all of them and he has been scoring goals for fun with the u18s. The last player who was too good for the reserves and the u18s at the age of 16 was Jack Wilshere and look how he turned out. I seriously think Serge Gnabry will make a name for himself at the age of 18 like Goetze,Hazard,Wilshere,Chamberlain and the likes.

Werner made a promotion to the U17..............

I hope he is not another Manuel Fischer but the kid is very talented
