Das Reboot and the Road to UEFA Nations League & EC2020

Werner is not really a centre forward anyway, there were rumours saying Selke and Volland are closely monitored by Loew now, Selke had a slight injury two weeks ago, affected his chance. He was in good form

Volland is versatile enough to play a couple of positions up top. And I think Volland is doing well in the last two seasons

Reus can play anywhere in front 3.

We have Kimmich as “6” now, Gundogan(good form), Kroos, Goretzka and Maxi Eggestein as “8”

Havertz as one of the front 3 is an option. He has been playing as a right inside forward in last few games

Front 3 in that 343 formation , will rotate between Reus, Brandt, Sane, Gnabry, Werner, Havertz, Draxler and maybe Selke/Volland.

Loew used Werner or Reus up top.

 

3-4-3 is primary formation now

Goretzka will compete against Maxi Eggestein, Gundogan n Kroos at 8, Kimmich is omly option for now at “6” (until Emre Can is back)

Havertz might be seen as a front 3 option instead of midfield. He plays as a RW at Leverkusen, more like an inside forward who cuts in.

Volland is useful, we can always use Selke and maybe someone like Fullkrug when he is back in action. (Have always liked Weydandt but he needs to move away)

 

I think the front 3 will be rotated among Gnabry, Brandt, Reus, Sane, Havertz, Werner, Draxler, Volland and Selke for now

I m not even sure if Werner is better to play in the middle at front three. He seems more comfortable playing at the left wing if there are three up front

If they play two strikers, then Werner will be better. But I can’t see anything from him when he is used as a lone striker in a 433 or 343

Last few games, Werner was used as a right winger , it was Gnabry who played in the middle among the front 3

 

If we are playing 3-4-3

We have

5 midfielders rotate for 2 positions : Kimmich (“6”), Goretzka/Kroos/Gundogan/Eggestein (“8”)

Rotate among front 3 : Gnabry, Sane, Brandt, Reus, Werner, Havertz

It’s ok




——-
If he we are playing 4-2-3-1

Kimmich, Kroos, Gundogan, Eggestein rotate among the “2”

Havertz or Goretzka as “AM”

Brandt, Reus, Gnabry, Sane as wingers

And Werner or one of Gnabry/Reus as striker

——

We can definitely try players like Selke or Volland.

Think Mueller is still needed in the squad, fringe player.

 

New squad numbers for Die Mannschaft players:

13. Lukas Klostermann will wear the 13 shirt of Thomas Müller.
5. Jonathan Tah will wear the 5 shirt of Mats Hummels.
17. Niklas Stark will wear the 17 shirt of Jerome Boateng. pic.twitter.com/BnPleAAF9f

Best XI

 

Sane and ganebry playing regular top draw champions league football, certainly in my 11 they would b in

 

Gnabry has a flu

N I heard many criticisms about Sane from many Man City fans

 

Sane is World class. He must start if fit. He is one of the few game changer players we have

 

If u look closely, Guardiola always rates him behind Sterling n B.Silva. He’s more like a bench option. N he is Mainly used against smaller teams

I saw many Man City fans said he has real attitude issue, n isn’t improving his end products.

He doesn’t take on defenders as before, more safe passes n crosses....and he is a one trick pony who never improves his weaknesses

I saw many complains about him from many Man City fans ... hope they aren’t right about him.

But in a recent interview during press conference, Guardiola said he was expecting Sane to be better than what he is doing recently.

Other than the Schalke match, he’s in poor form

 

Yes. There are many reasons why he is unused bench player against bigger teams

N he is behind Sterling n B.Silva in pecking order

He played “well” against Schalke. But most games he was said to be disappointing by many fans

Even his only trick is now exposed in EPL, n he hasn’t improved his other skills

That’s what I have been told by at least four Man City fans. They think he is not as good as last season

 

Ive read in sz today that internal information suggests whatever Löw does is aimed looking good at WC 2022 and home Euro 2024. So basically every decision needs to be seen in this regard

 

Sane is a starter on most teams. Man City just happen to be a team full of World class players

 

Serbia will be without Mitrovic and Tadic, while Jovic will get the start

Sane may still have room for improvement at this point, but he is clearly Germany's highest performing attacking player at club level, plays regularly for an elite club at an elite level, and is coached by one of the top coaches in the world. He has been directly involved in 31 goals so far this season, I can't see many other available players bettering that. He is a guaranteed starter for me.

 

you guys always hype Sane, as I have always said before, he is not as good as you think, trying to put all the hope in him is insane

 

I would play a 3-4-2-1

With Reus n Brandt supporting the CF (hopefully not Werner)
