I wish he will be the permanent captain of both NT and Bayern.

He has everything that is needed to be a symbol for both teams, and he has many years in front of him to do that.

Would be interesting to see a statistic on how many games Lahm played in a row, both for Bayern and for Germany. He gets a rest, at last. Winning or losing is not important in this one. It's just about testing all the youngsters who have been shining in the Bundesliga in the last few weeks and see how they do on the international stage. I'm particularly looking forward to see Mario Gotze.

I think Lewis Holtby is such a scary offensive player. I could see him performing better than Kroos/Marin have done for the NT and stealing their spot in the full squad. Similarly i think Goetze will do that as well.

I agree he should be Bayern captain, but not germany captain.
No prizes for guessing who I think should be german captain.

Podolski and Sasha Riether got injured and wont play vs Sweden

podolski getting injured is good for the new youngster that got called up

So without Özil, Podolski and Müller we will probably see Mario Götze in the starting 11. I'm sure that he will be the next German big talent. Not only a good player like Grosskreutz or Holtby

Am Expecting this starting Line-up

-----------------------------------------------Neuer----------------------------------------------
Beck------------------------Mertesacker---------------Westermann-----------------Boateng
------------------------------Khedira---------------------Schweinsteiger(C)-------------------
Goetze---------------------------------------Kroos--------------------------------------Marin
-----------------------------------------------Gomez-------------------------------------------

Mertesacker---Westermann is a total disaster.

if it was up to me

i would start Boateng and Hummels as Cbs , Beck as RB and Traesh as LB

and Start schurrle in place of Goetze

well i don't think this game will be realted to bayern where i mean
that bayern players will not get involved that much
maybe it will only be kroos since he is always a sub and he needs to play a a lot
and gomez will hopefuly score

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not Play this game

They want to give him a Rest because it is not a qualification game
