leno? trapp? rudy? ginter? seriously?


- some players who definitely deserved it more than those: almost every other bundesliga starting goalkeeper (horn, ulreich, zieler...), max, wagner

- players i would have considered as well: volland, weigl, schulz

- players surprisingly (but also deservedly) not in the squad: götze, schürrle, mustafi

- out injured: gnabry, stindl, can

I'm just happy to finally see Reus going.
Mustafi deserved to still go IMO, he has shocking games but he can also be really good.

Rudiger really hasn't been good this season.

i so hope for reus this finally works out for him, he's such a talented and dangerous player.

about mustafi, i don't outright hate him, but i think the players löw picked over him deserve it more (except ginter).
i'm not exactly a fan of rüdiger either, and he's one of the players i wouldn't be surprised not to make it into the final squad but i think i can explain why he was picked over mustafi: he's more athletic and faster, and therefore can act as a replacement for both the cb as well as the fb position.

does belgium have a preliminary (or even final) squad yet? if so, i'd love to read your comments and insight about it...

Not yet, I'll make a topic when there is but I can already tell some players who don't deserve it wll go. He always calls up Boyata for some reason and I HOPE Radja gets picked.

e: on the 21st Martinez will make our squad public.

as always löw takes his favorites, while players with great seasons are simply ignored
nothing new here

without injuries it shouldnt be a problem, the best starting line up will there

Neuer won't be a starter for sure, so it sucks

I'm glad to see he didn't take Schurle

you dont have strikers lol

Mario just a old boy...

ter stegen had a great season

thats the luxury we have, even our back ups are better than what pretty much all teams have as a starter



my boy müller will be in world cup mode

would love to see a front 4 with werner, sane, reus and müller

Still a squad that can easily win this tournament. I will definitely be following then and England this summer.

Knowing Low, there's no way Ozil doesn't start
