Bones instead of Bella Kotchap
Netz instead of Halstenberg
Knoche is not bad, but it still surprises me that Bella-Kotchap recently received at least one invitation from the DFB.
Netz is ok from my side, but he still won’t call, at least I can’t imagine that. Then Raum, Gosens and Günter are still in front of him. Either way, we have enough alternatives for the left side. I’m just a bit surprised that Halstenberg isn’t still on it. Probably too similar to Günter and Gosens in terms of age, that’s why Netz (much younger) is probably on it.
So in addition to the MS position, we also have problems in the 6 and RV positions.
There are enough alternatives for the 6 on the list. Whether they really have international class remains to be seen, but real RVs are not on it except for Klostermann (is and was injured) and Henrichs. Although some have already tried it, see Hofmann, Kehrer and Süle, but we have to hope that Klostermann or Hofmann will rock it somehow. However, the alternatives are not satisfactory either.
The kill is Henrichs, who is RV but not really in shape.
You could have taken a Baku with you, who at least played well last season.
