Eberl on Kimmich: “He still has 1 year left on his contract. We have agreed to talk after his vacation. Joshua is a very good player, but it simply applies in general that professional football is a performance sport – we can’t tell any player per se: Hey, you’re a guaranteed starter.”

1. As it should be

2. I like this guy

   Edit: btw, imo “Hey, da bist du gesetzt” doesn’t fully translate to not being guaranteed to be a starter, it’s about his choice of position. He’s saying that Kimmich *definitely* can’t demand to play a certain position, whereas it’s a less direct statement on whether or not he can be a starter in any position. Also, fuck Welt. But that’s just a personal gripe

   Edit 2: nope. I read an extra “da”. “Hey, du bist gesetzt” does mean his role as a starter. My bad lmao I read it again and realized there’s no “da”

3. I hope Leon understands that
