Sometimes the small moments are more important than the large ones. The short duel, in which Niklas Süle had to go in the final phase of the Test match against Olympique Marseille, is actually nothing, what remains in memory, and probably not even for the Central defender of Bayern Munich. But it was the moment, in the Süle perhaps the only Time on this so special day reasonably requested. He had a little trouble with the nimble Nemanja Radonjic to keep up, played no role, because the people from Languedoc remained in this scene is harmless.

Süle had been changes a good quarter of an hour previously, as one of a total of eleven players, the coach Hansi Flick in the course of the 90 minutes run for the eighth-final second leg in the Champions League against Chelsea was replaced in this test on the coming Saturday. For the first Time since the 286 days since he had ripped in October of last year, in the Bundesliga game against FC Augsburg, the cruciate ligament, in the same place as five years before, stood Süle on Friday and again on the football field. The whole of the club, said Flick, “has breathed a sigh of relief”.

the main object returns

The national player is back, this is the most Important thing, for him, for the FC Bayern. That “since not all processes vote and the liveliness is still there,” he says, after such a long break clear, but “if I’m needed, I’ll be there”. Süle was promoted prior to his injury, the defender of the present, the predecessor of Flick, Niko Kovac, even to the defense chief. But now he is once more a player for the future – if the knee holds up. For him, the match against Chelsea comes too early, as well as the possible final tournament in Lisbon.

Flick against Marseille with the team’s start, which it plans to largely on Saturday. Alone the occupation of the left Flank seems to be still questionable. On Friday Ivan Perisic started there, but the loan signing from Inter Milan has not been able to put so well in scene as much ball with Kingsley Coman safer and faster-acting. For the first international appearance since the end of February, there is already “a few things to rehearse,” admitted Flick after the 1:0 victory: “We need to look at where we still have a bit of adjusting.”

At least, however, in defence, although the Bayern coach because of Benjamin Pavards injury, the back four need to be converted. But Joshua Kimmich filled in the vacant right side against Marseille as confidently as before, before he had been promoted from the Flick permanently into the midfield.

“David is the chief of the defence”

in addition to Süle, Lucas Hernández patience you must have is the Duo in the centre of defence, one of the best in Europe. Jérôme Boateng and David Alaba in the defenders out of the presence at FC Bayern are. However, it is questionable whether they are also the future. Boateng has recently spoken to a change in the Premier League to introduce.
