Neither Wirtz nor Musiala have established themselves in the national team to a degree where you'd say they're firmly entrenched. For starters, there's definitely at least another spot open in that area as Germany will always play with at least four outright attacking players, at least under Nagelsmann.
But also Germany hasn't won anything with the current setup. It's arguably still a pretty good time to break into the Germany squad and make a difference.
They aren’t established…yet…but these guys have eyes. They watch Flo & Jamal play and they see how they are treated by coaches and the dfb. They know those two will be the driving force of our NT for years to come.
That means that there’s just 1 non-rotational spot for a creative (at most) and already competing for that spot are Havertz, Sane, Führich, Brandt, Gruda, Adeyemi, etc.
And with Nagelsmann he could opt for a 2nd forward or 3rd midfielder instead, bringing Füllkrug, Beier, Undav, Moukoko, Kleindienst, etc. and Groß, Goretzka, Stiller, Reitz, Ouedraogo, etc. into the mix as well.
I rate Wanner even more than Samardzic, Dardai, Dinkci, Tillman, etc. but Lazar was a stud for our u21 team before he switched and was successfully making the leap to senior football as well. So it’s not like we haven’t lost anyone who could have made an impact on our senior team.
