Nascar: Sane does not play in the top league, he needs to perform better to join the German team

German national team coach Nagelsmann was interviewed and talked about topics such as next week's World Cup qualifiers.
About Sane was not selected for the German roster in this issue, the leagues Sane played for now are slightly lower than those in the Bundesliga and other European top leagues, where he must perform better. Although Sane contributed 1 goal and 1 assist in the last game, it took him a little time to find his best form and I was not expecting a miracle to happen. I have talked a lot with Sane. He is not currently playing in the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 or Serie A, so I have specific expectations for his data. If he can meet these expectations, he will still be one of the candidates for our national team.
Regarding the newly selected German team, these three players are fully worthy of being selected. Finn Dahmen has been a goalkeeper with stable performance in the Bundesliga for many years. His career experience is quite interesting and he has overcome many difficulties during this period. Nnamdi Collins played well in the U21 Europa League and received a lot of playing time with Frankfurt. He has excellent personal abilities and physical qualities, and can be competent as a full-back and play as a central defender. Paul Nebel is one of the most watched players in the U21 European Youth Championship. His performance with Mainz was also impressive last season.
About the upcoming World Cup qualifiers
We are the popular teams in the group where this World Cup qualifiers are located. Both the team and I personally have the ambition to advance with an absolute advantage, which means that we must win without any suspense in the game. Unfortunately, we failed to do this before against Italy and Portugal. We need to establish a good pace of competition, after all, there is not much time left for us to get in.
About Gnabry
This summer is quite good for Gnabry, and we think he is very suitable for the role of No. 10 in the middle. I don't regard him as a winger in the traditional sense, although he had to play as a winger when he played for Bayern. His performance in the previous game against Leipzig was extremely impressive, and he is one of the best personal performances I have ever seen in the past five or six years. For Gnabry, maintaining stability in his form is crucial. He has excellent physical fitness, strong finishing ability, and has a certain degree of creativity. Playing No. 10 behind Kane, I think Gnabry can give full play to his strengths.
Regarding moving Kimmich to the midfield, we will make some adjustments and adopt different tactical systems on both sides of the offense and defense. As a right-back in the traditional sense, Kimmich's strength is still unparalleled, but now we will make different positions on his role on the field.
Regarding Oliver Bowmann will serve as the main goalkeeper of Germany, we are very satisfied with the performance of all goalkeepers, which is why we chose them to be selected. They also performed well in the team's pass control construction process. In the next game, Oliver Bowman will serve as the No. 1 goalkeeper. For many years, he has maintained a very high competitive level and performed well in the national team. For example, in the previous game against Italy, he defended the victory for the team. He is very popular in the team and I have great trust in him.
Regarding Walter Mad's transfer storm this summer, I think it is a pity for all parties to ferment in such an open manner. Of course, I have given Walter Mad some advice, not to suggest which team he should go to, I won’t do this, but to tell him that players must ensure (stable) playing time. I don't think the few transfers this summer are all wise. Some players could have obtained 100% of their playing time, but only 15% left after the transfer. For me, the national team coach, this situation is not beneficial. I told Walter Mad that if he wants, it is certainly OK to transfer to Bayern. But if he can only get 25% of his playing time, the possibility of him being included in the World Cup roster will be very small.
Regarding Pavlovic not included in the German roster
Overall, Pavlovic is a very good player, I have a good relationship with him and I often communicate. But even so, Pavlovic's playing time last year was too small for players of his age, and due to facial injuries, his pre-season preparations were not sufficient. All Pavlovic needs to do now is stay healthy for a longer period of time and strive to get more than 34% of the playing time. How many percentage of playing time did Yamal get last year? 100%, while our top star (Pavlovic) only earned 33%.
