A French international given that 2018, Hernandez was component of the winning team at the 2018 FIFA Globe Mug as well as also joined UEFA Euro 2020.

Dayot Upamecano? Highly talented, but new and 42.5 million euros expensive. Only 22 years old, in his last half of the year at RB Leipzig faulty. Niklas SELE? Disputes, in criticism, after a cruciate ligament tear in autumn 2019 and long break never more the old one. Lucas Hernandez? Record purchasing, but often injured and rarely set under Hansi Flick. And if, then rather than left-back. Thus, in short and short, at the beginning of the season, the situation on the paper in the internal defenders, without talent Tanguy Nianzou to be undertaking, the number four in the internal ranking.

After the first weeks of the season, it looks much more pleasing than described. UPAMECANO Patzte at the season opener in Mönchengladbach, but then increased from week to week and acted last at the 3-0 victory at the FC Barcelona. He impresses with speed and buggy strength. Slee has a clear fitter than in the past season, has also contributed without real preparation to stabilize the defensive and in this form any authorization to a starting field.

With Hernandez in the team, a team is almost unbeatable

Why he and Upamecano can not be sure? This is due to Lucas Hernandez and his comeback after a knee op. In Leipzig and Bochum, the Resolute Frenchman was allowed to ran, both times convinced with the grade 2.5. And he can attract with an impressive statistics: 30 times he stood since his change to FC Bayern 2019 in the Bundesliga in the Startelf, none of these games lost Bayern. Even in the national team he is unbeaten when he was allowed to start. Together, these are 54 victories and 13 draws in lots with FC Bayern and France. There is a black spot in the Champions League, 2: 3 in the quarterfinal first leg against Paris St. Germain on April 7 this year. Nevertheless, this exception confirms the rule. With Hernandez in the team a team is almost unbeatable.

As long as all three pillars in Bavaria s domestic defense are fit, Nagelsmann can vary according to form and opponents. Against Bochum paused the previously burdened upamecano. At Greuther Fürth on Friday evening he should return to the starting eleven. The question is only: next to whom?
