JOACHIM LÖW ABOUT …

… THE OLYMPIC SILVER WINNER IN SQUAD: The play and the development of the team at the Olympics has pleased me very well. Therefore I invited players like Niklas Süle, Max Meyer and Julian Brandt from this team. These players will get the opportunity on Wednesday to play. After denying with (DFB sports director;… Editor’s note) Hansi Flick possibly of one or the other players will then travel on Thursday back to his club, because all in the last week had a high load.

… THE CONFED CUP 2017 IN RUSSIA: There are some players with perspective, which I believe that they can play an important role with us. The I want to introduce. The door is wide open again. We have next year the Confederations Cup. I want to use it as a perspective Tournament. Our goal in 2018 World Cup is the title defense. At the Confederations Cup, we do not necessarily have all the players for the subsequent World Cup tournament. Three tournaments in a row would not be ideal for some players.

… MARIO AND GÖTZE ANDÉ Schürrle: I’ve been using (BVB coach; editor’s note…) Spoken Thomas Tuchel, who said that Mario Götze has some match fitness and is therefore not been used at the weekend. Mario was also slightly injured, but lost the final training session fully completed before the first Bundesliga Highlights. I know that he is healthy and has his gap somewhat caught. Mario Götze can match practice with us. André Schürrle had to cancel because of muscular problems, which was primarily a precaution. The main focus for us in the first World Cup qualifier against Norway. It is therefore important, this week, the load distributing something after a short preparation and only a Bundesliga match.
