Bayern Munich representatives Thomas M\u00fcller, Joshua Kimmich and Manuel Neuer among others put in strong displays to help Germany to an astounding win over Italy, 5-2, in the UEFA Nations League.<\/p>\n

Hansi Flick has his blueprint<\/strong><\/h2>\n

4-2-3-1 is the formation that seems to work best; Thilo Kehrer is not part of this lineup. Leon Goretzka unfortunately might not be part of the starting XI either. However, a back four of David Raum, Antonio R\u00fcdiger, Niklas S\u00fcle and Lukas Klostermann seems to be the way forward. In addition, Joshua Kimmich and IIkay G\u00fcndogan have been the best double pivot to date and that will remain the case moving forward. After that, the front four is fluid; Thomas M\u00fcller and Jonas Hofmann’s places seem set nonetheless. Any two of Serge Gnabry, Leroy San\u00e9, Timo Werner and Kai Havertz will make up the remaining spots. <\/p>\n

Antonio R\u00fcdiger makes a big difference (as does Thomas M\u00fcller)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

He wasn’t at his best today but Germany’s back line seems to have a different feel about it when the former Chelsea defender marshals it. His partnership di lui with Niklas S\u00fcle has reaped rewards as well (although S\u00fcle made a big error today and was saved by Manuel Neuer). Overall, with David Raum and Lukas Klostermann, they seem capable of holding a high line. Also, R\u00fcdiger is strong in 1v1 situations; this has to be the case to play in a Flick defense.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, M\u00fcller organized the team but by now, all Bayern fans know exactly what M\u00fcller adds,<\/p>\n

Jonas Hofmann has been the revelation of the Nations League<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hofmann put in another solid display today. His runs di lui into the box opened up space for others to take advantage. M\u00fcller did so, for example. Hofmann has long been valued at Borussia Park for M\u00f6nchengladbach but not so for Germany. I think, this time, he is hear to stay!<\/p>\n

The crowd is back in it!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The crowd sounded loud and seemed to enjoy the game. During Joachim L\u00f6w’s final months as national manager, collective groans were to be expected rather than cheers. The fans of the national side seem to be enjoying their team again and they know that, in Flick, they have a manager they can trust.<\/p>\n
