Auf geht's, Jungs: German Youth Discussion Thread Vol. V

I really hope Adeyemi can bring this type of form to BVB. We need more attacking options in the SNT and he has a lot of interesting qualities.

Seems to be few Dortmund fans are a bit down on him, not really sure why as it is important to remember he is still young plus has had some injury issues over the past two seasons.

 

I want to see Tresoldi in 1BL tbh......feels like only time until he is at the level.

 

Woltemade made it 6-0 with a nice finish!!! 2 more to go for the tying record of 8-0 W vs Estonia U21.

find it funny when for years troll poster shits on German YNT for not being physical and dominate in air blablabla.

but we tend to see more such things from our boys in U20-U21 level. The 06s have been rare exception in that front from the lower levels.

all match we have been crossing the ball, being physical, going for headers etc.

most of the times these type of things are more likely to be shown once they breakthrough the pro levels or at min adult footy.

 

Adeyemi makes it 8-0!!!!!!!!!
HAT TRICK!!!!!!!!!!

5 goals in 2 games for Adeyemi

AND Germany has now tied for biggest W vs Estonia U21. 1 more and we get sole record.

cool to see us get 2 records vs 2 U21 teams this International break.

 

it ain't Germany without us conceding a goal, LOL.

 

Lemperle scores nice finish for 9-1!!!!!!!!

Still time for double digits.

although the goal conceded happened after mass subbing and once we did mass subbing we lost a good amount of steam.

 

Knauff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

10-1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DOUBLE DIGITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

15 goals in 2 games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

-LOL, its MORE than 14 names.

-LOL a 3rd Liga player too......
With his brace against England, El Mala overshadowed a child prodigy from the island. The Three Lions fielded Arsenal's Ethan Nwaneri, the youngest player ever to play in the Premier League. With an estimated market value of eight million euros, the midfield talent is one of the ten most valuable underage footballers in the world.

On Tuesday, Nwaneri managed to equalize England's 1-1 goal (58th minute) after Max Moerstedt had put the DFB team in the lead (19th minute). But then El Mala came on. It was also a special match for Fayssal Harchaoui. The Cologne U17 world champion made his debut for the U19 national team and played the whole game.

-BVB coach on Adeyemi scoring 5 goals in 2 games for U21.
"We had a conversation," explained coach Nuri Şahin at the press conference on Wednesday. "I think it's great how he performed, and not just because of the goals. The goals are of course good for him, good for us and good for the U21s," said Şahin.

With this in mind, he had an invitation ready for his protégé. "He is very welcome to score a hat trick and a brace for us," said Şahin before the Heidenheim game. However, he does not consider a motivational boost for Adeyemi to be necessary: "I don't know whether Karim needs extra self-confidence, because I see him extremely self-confident every day."

-on 05 GK Seimen #1 of 3rd Liga Stuttgart II.

Sports boss Wohlgemuth reveals:
"Seimen is the future of VfB Stuttgart in goal"
VfB Stuttgart wants to tie goalkeeper talent Dennis Seimen to the club for the long term.

Week after week, he shows strong saves and lightning-fast reflexes!
Thanks in part to Dennis Seimen (18), VfB Stuttgart's U21 team already has five points in the 3rd division after four games. The goalkeeper not only made several strong saves on the line, but also made sensational one-on-one saves.

In the fight to avoid relegation, he has already secured important points for VfB II. In Stuttgart, they have high hopes for the Heilbronn native, who joined VfB at the age of nine and whose contract runs until 2027. His development at the runner-up is far from over.

Stuttgart sports director Fabian Wohlgemuth (45) to BILD: "Dennis is showing in the 3rd league that he can keep up at this level at a young age. And that's exactly why we're trying to continue working with him."

Wohlgemuth: "Dennis is the future of VfB Stuttgart in goal"
Clear message! VfB would like to extend Seimen's contract in order to bind the top talent to the club in the long term. Wohlgemuth: "Dennis is the future of VfB Stuttgart in goal."

Shortly before the start of the season, U21 coach Markus Fiedler (38) had high praise for him. In an interview with BILD, he said: "Dennis is an outstanding talent, as a goalkeeper and as a person. I am convinced that he will take his steps into the Bundesliga."

But first he should continue to mature in the 3rd division...

DFB.de: Mr. Di Salvo, what was your highlight of the last ten days?

Antonio Di Salvo: My highlight was seeing how the team managed to approach the unusually short preparation time before the first game in such a concentrated way, but at the same time with fun and ease. We created the right atmosphere for this with the coaching team and the staff, and the boys implemented it perfectly through many discussions and a few training sessions. They internalized the processes and got off to a great start against Israel, which was absolutely positive for me.

DFB.de: A total of 15 goals in two games was not to be expected. How surprised were you yourself?

Di Salvo: You can't always assume that you will actually score that many goals - even if they were the two weakest opponents in our group in terms of the table. Our goal before the games was to create clearer scoring opportunities than last time and to become more efficient in the process. The team has now impressively achieved this, the result is 15 goals.

DFB.de: Were there certain topics or processes that were the focus of training and that have now been implemented as desired?

Di Salvo: The team is constantly evolving. There were definitely some processes that had already been hinted at in the last few games and have now worked very well again: For example, having a strong connection game between the sixes in the build-up to get forward or out quickly. But also in creating scoring opportunities. Proof of this is, among other things, both of Nicolò's (Tresoldi; editor's note) goals from open play. We trained these patterns - crosses from the half-field when we can't get through on the outside positions. That worked very well.

DFB.de: You're talking about Nicolò Tresoldi. So far he has only made short appearances in the U21s, but now he has been allowed to start twice. He has repaid the trust with three goals in the two games, hasn't he?

Di Salvo: I am generally very happy that we have players who can step in when other players are out. Nicolò is the best proof of that. He took advantage of the fact that Youssoufa Moukoko was not there and played his role superbly. First and foremost, he rewarded himself with goals, but also helped the team with his strengths: he secured a lot of balls, was present in the box and had very good runs. That's why I'm happy with his performance, and not just because of the three goals.

DFB.de: Karim Adeyemi wanted to help the team, and he clearly kept his promise with five goals. How do you rate his performance and his demeanor during this international trip?

Di Salvo: Karim fit in perfectly with the group, there were no difficulties at all in adapting. The team felt that too. He was fully involved in the team, spoke a lot with the boys. He was also wide awake in training. And of course the five goals speak for themselves. He has definitely achieved the goals that he and we set ourselves before the international match.

DFB.de: In the second half against Estonia, it briefly seemed as if you wanted to substitute him earlier. Can you explain the situation?

Di Salvo: We discussed at half-time that he should play for around 20 minutes. He then said that he really wanted to score a hat trick. I said: "Okay, then you have 20 minutes left to do it." Around the 55th minute, I shouted to him that he had ten minutes left to score the third goal. Fortunately, he managed that pretty quickly. (laughs)

DFB.de: How satisfied are you with the integration of the five newcomers? Marcel Beifus, Frans Krätzig, Tim Oermann, Max Rosenfelder and Keke Topp all made their U21 debut.

Di Salvo: I'm almost used to the fact that our entire team - players, coaching staff and staff - has the ability to integrate new players very well within a very short space of time. They quickly understood our game principles, so we could throw them in without hesitation. I'm pleased that we helped the boys make their U21 debuts. The safe scores in both games made this a little easier than usual, of course - although I would like to stress that I don't give away playing time and that everyone has to earn their place. I have the feeling that the team spirit has grown a lot on this international trip. In that respect, it was certainly good for the team that every field player was used at least once.

DFB.de: How do you see the increased team spirit?

Di Salvo: Normally we play on Fridays and Tuesdays during an international match period. Because we now played on Wednesdays and Tuesdays, we had a longer period of time to bridge between the two games. This also meant that we were able to give the players more freedom and free time - just like they are used to after matches at club level. They used this time to do different things together and grow together as a team. It gives us a good feeling as a coaching team when we see that something like this is ultimately rewarded with performance and results.

DFB.de: As a coach, do you find it difficult to find ways to improve after two almost perfect performances?

Di Salvo: No, not at all. There are always points that can be improved. Of course, you have to win these victories first, and we are happy about that. Nevertheless, we know that in a month we will be facing a different caliber of teams in Bulgaria and Poland. That's why we're already focusing on these two opponents and our training camp in October. They'll be two difficult games. Poland is now waiting to have every chance of qualifying directly in their last game against us. We don't want to let that happen, but rather win our home game in Regensburg against Bulgaria - in order to secure qualification for the European Championship before the duel with Poland.

 

on 04 CF Tresoldi
But Tresoldi is also exciting from another perspective. "I have a lot of Italian blood in me, I was born there and have only been in Germany for seven years," explained the German-Italian born in Cagliari. It was coach Antonio Di Salvo in particular who was able to convince Tresoldi: "It was because of him that I chose Germany." However, this choice is not final.

Can Italy still have hope?
When asked by Bild whether the Italian association was trying to get him, he said: "I haven't heard anything yet." And the attacker added: "And then we'll see." Tresoldi, however, enthuses: "I'm having a lot of fun here at the DFB. I'm really proud to play for Germany and now I want to help the U21s qualify for the European Championships."

DFB can't do anything more than this we can't call up a 2BL CF to SNT. And he's playing up an age group anyways in U21.

I still don't see any RB talent that comes close to the greatness of Mustafi at RB, defensive genius.

he's likely to join Oliveira, Eitschberger, Morgalla, Ba, Baum, Bulut etc in being a U21 candidate for next U21 cycle.

 

GK Updates
-05 GK Seimen extends his pro contract at 1BL Stuttgart.

Dennis #Seimen verlängert langfristig!
Unser Torhüter hat seinen Vertrag beim VfB bis 2029 verlängert. 🤩

Dennis Seimen extends long-term contract
The goalkeeper has extended his contract with VfB until 2029.

He is only 18 years old - and is currently in his tenth season at VfB Stuttgart: In 2015, Dennis Seimen moved to VfB's U12 team. Since then, the Heilbronn native has developed into one of the best young goalkeepers in Germany. The 18-year-old's CV now includes 16 junior international matches from the U16 to the U20 of the German Football Association, and in 2022 he became German runner-up with VfB's U17 team. Since the 2023/2024 season, Dennis Seimen has been the regular goalkeeper for the U21 team - initially in the Regionalliga Südwest, and since this season in the 3rd division. In addition, the left-footer has been an integral part of the goalkeeping team of the professional team for two years. In the first four appearances this season in the third division, Dennis Seimen showed strong performances. He will continue to wear the jersey with the chest ring in the future. The keeper has prematurely extended his contract with the club from Cannstatt until 2029.

Dennis Seimen: "The contract extension is also a special moment for me because I have been wearing the VfB jersey for a very long time and feel at home here. I would like to thank everyone who has accompanied me on my journey so far. My dream has always been to make the leap from the youth team to the goal of the professional team. I will continue to work hard to one day stand in goal in the chest ring in front of the Cannstatter Kurve."

Fabian Wohlgemuth, Sports Director: "Dennis has developed excellently at VfB in recent years and has already reached a very high level. In the games so far in the 3rd division, Dennis has impressively demonstrated that he can keep up at this level even at a young age. Dennis embodies the future of VfB in the goalkeeper position, so it was our clear wish to tie him to the club for the long term. We are very happy that we managed to do this and that Dennis will continue to wear the VfB jersey.”


-04 GK Feller also extended his pro contract but at 1BL Heidenheim.

Vertragsverlängerung bis 2029 – Torwarttalent Frank Feller bleibt langfristig beim FCH!

🔴🔵 #NurDerFCH

— 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 e. V. (@FCH1846) September 12, 2024

Contract extension until 2029 - Goalkeeper talent Frank Feller is staying with FCH long-term!
After the contract extensions of Adrian Beck and Benedikt Gimber, immediately before the last home game against FC Augsburg, there is now the next good news to announce in terms of personnel planning. Goalkeeper Frank Feller (20), who has been playing for 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 since the U17s, has extended his contract, which was due to expire next summer, until June 30, 2029.

"Frank is a goalkeeper whose great talent we recognized early on and who has continued to make his way with us at the HARTMANN Junior Performance Center. That's why Frank was part of our professional team early on as a youth player and has continued to develop positively since his final move into the Bundesliga squad last year," explains FCH CEO Holger Sanwald, adding: "We see a lot of potential in Frank for the future and are therefore all the more pleased that he has signed with us long-term."

Frank Feller moved from SGV Freiberg to FCH back in 2019. In addition to early training with the professionals, he gained match practice in the U17s for two years and in the U19s in two subsequent seasons. Since July 1, 2023, Frank Feller has been an integral part of head coach Frank Schmidt's professional squad. Away at BK Häcken, in the UEFA Conference League Play-Offs, the Leonberg native celebrated his professional debut last August and played his part in the important 2-1 first leg win with a strong performance. Frank Feller has made a total of 13 appearances for the German national youth teams, from the U17 to the U20, in recent years.

"I always felt very comfortable in Heidenheim as a youngster and as a young player I was always given a lot of trust by the coaching team and those in charge. I am very happy that I will continue to receive this trust for the next few years and of course I want to repay it with good performances on the pitch," says Frank Feller about the contract extension and adds: "At FCH I was able to take my first steps in professional football, and of course there will be many more to follow in the future."

-07 RB Pedrosa made his 2BL/pro debut as a 3 min sub. Damn, still only 16 y/o and makes his debut in a position like RB. Has been on bench all season so far and this is his 1st time playing. As always that RB pool is growing by the season and a lot of emerging RBs in relevant pros from 02-onwards are making breakthrough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-04 CF Ansah scored his 2nd of season for Paderborn in 3-3 D. Nice to see him scoring coming off from good International break with Germany U20.

-nice to see that 05 CF Rolke who has 2BL Hertha pro contract is finally scoring and now scored in 2 back to back matches and 3 so far this season. Has done better in RL productivity wise then other CFs for Hertha had done in past.

continues to be on roll!!!! Really looks like he got his scoring confidence from Germany U21 with 5 goals in 2 games there.....and now 7 goals in past 3 games!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yep seems u21 has helped boost him, good to see. Hope Dortmund can use him and Beier together instead of starting just one of them plus Malen.

yeah hopefully Beier breakthrough XI, if one recalls he also started last season at Hoff on bench as sub and after impressing there he brokethrough XI and went fixed XI not long later. His time will come and triple competition as well.

 

1BL
-02 GK Atubolu back from injury played his 1st XI of season for 2-1 W.
-05 M Bischof back from injury made his season debut as 15 min sub for Hoff
-04 M Tohumcu back from injury also made his season debut as 3 min sub for Hoff
-04 M Kemlein made his season debut as 9 min sub for Union. This his 1st 1BL match since return from successful 2BL Winter loan.

-02 W Momuluh scored his 1st ever pro goal for H96 in 3-1 W. I'm surprised since H96 is all over place about him. They like him but constantly complain that they don't play Ws in their formation so they tried to retrain him elsewhere but that didn't work out. Then they were reports of dumping him out of club in Summer. So weird to see him play and get chance.
https://streamin.me/v/1a74cb77

-05 LB Haas made his 2BL/pro debut as 5 min sub for FCK.
-04 AM/W Marie made his 2BL/pro debut 32 min sub for EB.
-05 M Ulrich (on loan) made his season debut as 9 min sub, was injured for a bit




so between Haas+Marie+Pedrosa that's 3 new pro debutants this weekend. Good to see that Bischof and Ulrich are playing again this weekend after having injury issues. With Pavlovic, Kemlein, Tohumcu and Pannewig we look to have 4 04 Ms who are emerging in 1BL this season! We went from 2 last season to 4, so X2.

Also good to see that 2 04 CFs in 2BL aka Downs+Ansah are both already at 2 goals in season, will they manage to hit double digits??? More reason I keep saying that DFB will have major hurdle when it comes to CFs and topic of 04-onwards......LOL, its why they actually called up 4 CFs to Germany U20 when they usually call up like 2-3 MAX.

 

02 RB Rosenboom played 14 min today for 1BL Kiel in 2 back to back caps.

curious to see if he'll breakthrough XI and then what does Di Salvo do in this situation? As he'd be the only 02-onwards RB who would be XI in 1BL level.

 

2BL
-03 GK Noll (on loan)with back to back clean sheets and his 2nd clean sheet of season for Furth. Like 04 GK Weiss he too is unbeaten this season so far.

-05 W Balde with back to back XIs for HSV and 2 assists today.

assisted the 1st for 1-0. NO clip.

his 2nd assist for 2-0.
https://streamin.me/v/98056074

interesting to see he's at
1 goal and 3 assists in 6 games

1 goal and 3 assists in 3 XIs, productive in 3/3. Its clear he has at MIN a breakthrough season.
Who would have ever thought that the clown Baumgart would integrate. I suspect is because he's forced too by club aka Kuntz mixed in with the club not doing every transfer he wants so he's forced to use what he has. There has been reports that says that Kuntz is pushing for Academy chances while Baumgart wanted transfers, LOL. If your older players lacks the speed+individuality that Balde has, it forces your hand to use him, LOL. Balde also doesn't have physicality issues, so Baumgart doesn't have his million and 1 excuses to NOT play youth players with him. Now question lets see this clown integrate a second player.....

 

its not German footy without injuries.
02 M Rohl, 04 AM/W Diehl, 05 CF Pejcinovic (with Germany U20. Gotta suck getting injured for sake of irrelevant friendlies......) are all injured.

so far this season
1 goal and 1 assist in 2 games, productive in 2/2 as he had assist in DFB Cup.

its nice to see all the emerging AM/W talents in 1BL-2BL. He's likely to get Germany U20 call up in October.

 

Zarqelain will be fine as long as he's happy to accept endless u19/II bench lol. Just don't expect to stay in the clubs good books if you ask for more.

 

LOL, I mean the clown Kehl recently stated that they made like close to $20M from their mass exodus of talents and was patting himself on the back for selling like 7ish players for that amount.

what a clown had they integrated them all, could have been $20M MIN a piece, LULZ.

German clubs are always making shit up to save face.

asking for more=greedy POS but only if your German.
