    First ever call up at the age of 32. When he has played for City over the last couple of years he's done well, but personally not a major fan of calling up players that are mainly bench warmers at their club, so far he has zero EPL minutes this season.

    what an idiot neither Moreno nor Koch should be called up. Imagine ignoring Bisseck-Thiaw for a player like Koch.

    I sense it's a sympathy vote from Nagelsmann.

    Agree. And it's frustrating, against the Dutch, these two were outstanding. It's a matter of time before they start together on a regular basis

    Yes I also think Tah has dropped off a bit this season....

    WirtZ not starting ? Maybe he has a slight knock and good to come in at 60 minutes

    At least he is in midfiled behind Kleindienst where I think he is most affetive. Not sure why all the Havertz hate - not his fault he gets started at CF , I Think he is a class palyer

    Nagelsmann asked about Malick Thiaw (Milan), Aurel Bisseck (Inter) and Nicolas Kühn (Celtic), all currently in good form: "We are focusing on all German players. Malick has already been in the national team before, but has been out for a long time recently. I think both him and Bisseck are great players who still need to improve a few things. Kühn is also a good player with a lot of desire. He's a player we are watching. But calling up a new player always means leaving a player out"

    But with Anton injured there was a CB spot available without leaving anyone out?

    Wirtz was Bundesliga player of the year last year. And it was precisely at CAM position where he excelled. For me it's a no brainer, he should start in that position

    what's interesting is that if Kuhn gets SNT call up (I still think won't happen until he goes to top 4 league, seems like EPL will be next for him) will continue recent trend of loads of players who got SNT call up with 0 U21 and not because like Pavlovic who skipped the U21 but because they were LEFT OUT, LMAO.

    recent players with 0 U21
    -GK Ortega
    -LB Gosens
    -M Andrich
    -M Gross
    -W Fuhrich
    -W/LB Beste
    -CF Undav
    -CF Fullkrug
    -CF Ducksch
    -CF Kleindienst

    LOL, basically ALL of our recent CF call ups are players who never stepped foot in U21. Only Burkardt+Beier have done so and that's it and those 2 are on the young side.

    not only the entire main CF have 0 U21 but the likely M for Saturday's match in Andrich+Gross.

    shows that U21 doesn't really dictate future career.

    That's an average age of 28.7. Damn, we need to get it four to five years younger.

    It's likely his workload is being managed.
