Olympia 2016 - We're going to Rio (again)

next week's games vs Finland/Norway

we have
-Sane INJ
-Gundogan INJ
-Reus INJ
-Podolski (RET and not playing either games because of INJ)
-Basti (RET and only Finland game)
-Ozil INJ
-Can INJ
-Boateng INJ
-Gotze INJ
-Ter Stegen INJ
-Rudiger INJ

makes me think some of the Olympics guys or new players might come in.

 

Yeah, looks to be quite a few openings. It's a good time to give an opportunity to several young guys though. I'd give Tah and Süle at least a start each at CB against either opponent. Same with Ginter, Brandt, and Meyer keep him on board. Weigl and Kimmich for sure.

Volland and Kramer are two of the more likely candidates to be called up again. And then the Gladbach crew as well should be given a chance; Stindl, Dahoud, and Hahn. Maybe try out the pairing of Weiser and Plattenhardt at the fullback spots.

 

I think Oezil is not injured. Emre Can has a slight back problem but he should be fit for next week's games.

 

but he missed both of Arsenal's PL games and in the news plenty of articles saying that Wenger might gamble on Ozil's fitness as they needed him but didn't. As for Can he's only played 20 minutes in the 1st game and missed the 2nd. I don't know is it worth taking players who haven't been playing much or are recently injured?

 

Ozil played last Saturday against Leicster

 

ok he played for what I just found to be 17 minutes, so he wasn't fully ready yet.
