Also I don't look take take much heed of friendly match performances as IMO they are practise matches, nothing more than that! German teams tend to 'fly out the traps' and play the serious stuff when it matters. I expect them to do exactly that.
Are you sure I didn't write that 0762? It has all the accuracy of one of my predictions!
Mind you I like Brandt too ...... but I think they need a new position or formation to accommodate Kimmich. I'm not saying he can't play full back, it's just very difficult from the opposition penalty area.
