There were plenty of intriguing storylines during Germany’s latest international break, but now it is time to decide which player genuinely caught you off guard.
Was it Jonas Urbig, who looked comfortable stepping into the Germany goal? Maybe Tom Bischof, who continued to show why he deserves a bigger role after impressing in midfield. Aleksandar Pavlović also made a strong case for himself, while Lennart Karl might have surprised you in the wrong way.
Then there are players such as Marc-André ter
Stegen, Philipp Treu, Derry Sherhant, Malick Thiaw, and others who all had opportunities to change their standing with the national team.
Jürgen Klopp brought more than 40 players into the fold during this international break, making it impossible for everyone to receive the same opportunities. Now that the first major audition under Klopp is over, some players undoubtedly left a bigger impression than expected.
So, Germany fans, who surprised you the most? You are not limited to those names referenced above.
Pick your standout and let us know why.
