Don't worry about Lewandowski on the wing, it will be a fluid front 3 and Müller on the left just doesn't look right.
Leave Vidal at Juve, Goetze at Bayern, move Alaba to midfield and Bernat for the wing and it would be perfect

And why is that ?
I also think there have been enough sources saying there won't be a Götze-Vidal swap and if Götze leaves it will be a seperate deal.
Alaba is worse than Vidal in midfield and Bernat is worse than Alaba.

The reason to play Alaba at fullback would be because you can fill his position in midfield with an equally good footballer, whereas fullback is something of a weakness on pretty much every team.

Exactly. And he has proved that with him there we don't have that weakness. I don't quite care that he started his career in the midfield, for he has showed that he is better in the defense. I don't see the point in ruining that just for the sake of proving that he's scandalously versatile. He won't win any Ballon d'Or's as a LB, but he sure as hell will help the team more by being a LB than by being a CM.
PunkCapitalist wrote:Alaba can be as or more world-class than Schweinsteiger ever was in midfield. He is a HUGE talent. Every time he has played in midfield for us it has been great. FB has much lesser requirements than midfield and it would be a waste to play him there. That is not the same case with Lahm, he truly shines in a way no one else does when playing FB.
