“Half a year ago Kimmich was a world-class ‘6’, and now we criticize him?”

Date:

Hansi Flick (58) was discussed Nicklas Sule and of ‘Joe’ Kimmich in the ‘Frankfurter Allgemeine’. The second is better than the first. The German coach, while he gave a touch of attention to the defense of Borussia Dortmundhas praised the midfielder of Bayern Munich.

Süle (27) was accused of not taking advantage of his opportunities. “For me, Niki might be one of the best central defenders out there. He has a lot of potential, but I think he’s still a long way off.” Flick will not play with him in the next matches against Ukraine (June 12 in Bremen), four days later in Poland and on the 20th against Colombia in Gelsenkirchen. “I want him to step up with his attitude and mentality,” he said by way of warning if he wants to be called up.

De Kimmich spoke best: “As a defensive midfielder, ‘Jo’ offers exactly what we need in this position,” he said attacking his critics: “Half a year ago he is a world-class ‘6’, and now we are asking him?” he asked annoyed. Flick wants to try a three-man defense with “a ‘6’ ahead” in these three international matches, which he doesn’t want to be misinterpreted as a defensive system. His eleven “will always have at least six players who mainly think about the attack,” he promised.
