Right now you have only two (Kroos and Ter Stegen) I would like that figure to be around four. It would be good for Die Mannschaft to have players playing in two of Europe’s biggest clubs and in possibly the highest quality fixture(s) in the European football calendar.

Actually, NTs that do well recently are generally those that have a high number of players in 1 or 2 teams, so the ideal is for all the great Germans to play for Bayern, and X team (used to be Dortmund when they hay Reus, Hummels, Gündogan, Götze, but they are crap now). It's also optimal to select as few players outside the core team as possible ::coffee::

It is in the national teams best interest that there is one feeder club (Bayern) and another secondary club in the BL (Dortmund? Schalke?) and the rest of the guys play in the biggest clubs across the big four leagues (five if you count Ligue 1 as well)

And yet all of Argentina, Brazil (not even Copa America, as that was taken by Chile two times in a row) and belgium are a lot of smoke and haven't actually acchieved anything lately ::coffee::

It is very clear that having a core of NT players actually training and playing together all year long is highly positive for NTs. Without going towards England's insular ways, the less German players ñeave Germany, the better for the NT.

This summer, Bayern should contribute Hummels, Boa, Neuer, Kimmich and Müller (plus Göretzka) to the German NT X11. That's 5 (or 6 players), which is fine. What German football needs now is a second strong team; BVB used to be that, but their late decline ruined it.
