should I keep hoping Jan will start?

Should I keep hoping Hojbjerg will play?

[HSK]

should I keep hoping Jan will start?

Why do you want him to play? I would like too if he was being used as CB, but he can't play as DM on this level.

I just want to see what`s he made of; he didn`t get a proper chance to prove himself, only 15-20 minutes here and there. I`d like to be able to rate his positioning/anticipation/vision/marking, to know if he has at least average commanding skills. We don`t have a clue about anything concerning Jan. From all of our players (except Holger + the lads from FC Bayern II), guess who hasn`t started at least once this season? that`s right...Kirchhoff. I`m not saying he`s the next Maldini or something and we`re wasting him; maybe he`s just an amateur, but we don`t now. Anyways, I`m not expecting him to start even until the game vs Guangzhou Evergrande, if things go on like this. I mean, we played vs Braunschweig and no Jan; we played Contento as a CB in the ucl....come on mate..at least an explanation

we can't experiment in this match , Augsburg are having their best season in the 1st division , and we are playing at their home , so IMO we need a solid lineup

Neuer

Rafinha - Boateng - Dante - Alaba

Martinez
Kroos - Thiago

Robben - Mandzukic - Gotze

Let's minimize the chances of any possible injuries.. and to the quarters we march!

Maybe kroos should be given a rest and shaqiri should be subbed on too if he;s fit.

LEMME START!

[roosoo2]

Neuer

Rafinha - Boateng - kirchhof - Alaba

Martinez
Kroos - Thiago

Robben - Mandzukic - Gotze

the only problem is that toni has been playing many matches and he needs to rest but i couldn't think of any player who is fit that can replace him

[roosoo2]

and for god's sake let us see how krichhof plays as a central defender

[Springbok51]

Neuer

Rafinha - Boateng - kirchhof - Alaba

Martinez
Kroos - Thiago

Robben - Mandzukic - Gotze

Right now Højbjerg is the only alternative but the problem is that he hasn't had any meaningful playing time so far this season and it would be a bit of a gamble to have him for this fixture.

I don't think this is a risk Pep would want to take in a one off cup match like this.

we can rest Kroos vs Bremen with putting Lahm (since he'll be fit if I'm correct)
but we need him on Wednesday
