Very harsh on Ulreich that Trapp and Leno were selected over him. Ulreich has been pretty good for Bayern since Jupp has come back and he is playing as GK for the biggest club in Germany, so to have PSG’s second choice GK selected above him must be a bitter pill to swallow. Also, whenever Leno plays for Germany he lets in a silly goal (see the two WC qualifying games against Azerbaijan and the Confed cup game against Australia)
Surprisingly not a single Dortmund player called up for Die Mannschaft! Gotze and Schurrle exclusion is really surprising.
As for Reus, I think Löw is being wise by not trusting Marco.
@Borussin - Good for you man. Dortmund players will be well rested and with no EL to play in they will be hungry in Der Klassiker and Bayern also have a trip to Seville in a couple days after that game, so I am expecting a second team from Bayern and Dortmund to hand Bayern their first home defeat of the season
Leno is fine being picked in the squad, but Trapp, yeah, no idea why yet again he is picked. Not a number 1 for his team, and not a very good goalie anyway.
Out of Dortmund players, to be honest, the only one I think should be in there at this moment is Marco Reus! But I wonder if the injury situation os partly why he is not. Just back from a long injury and there was a concern last night too about a knock. Maybe it's just them being careful. I hope so, cos I just desperately want him to go to the world cup! I think he is worth the risk. Goetze hasn't played anywhere near well enough to be considered. Schuerrle only recently has found a little form. Weigl has struggled most of the season.
There won't be a 2nd team for Bayern, Jupp doesn't believe in resting players that much. They will be at near full strength the rest of the way! Dortmund are in a mess, I can't see them coming close to beating Bayern at this point.
