A lot of those guys, I mean, probably the only one is Lamine Yamal, who stays on the right-hand side.

Rafinha's played in the hall, Fermin Lopez has played in the hall, Dani Olmo, and they've all played wide as well.

So there are players that Hansi Flick has options where he can play them.

The ones that play in the position when they start normally are Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal.

Everybody else has sort of floated about.

Just got to look at Eric Garcia.

He's played almost every position for Hansi Flick and done a really good job.

I think he just feels, it looks to me as if he feels just a lot more comfortable playing for Germany at the moment because he is in his comfort zone, he's expected to be in the German team, his place really isn't under threat in that team because they know what he's done in the Bundesliga.

They've seen it week in, week out.

They know his skill set, whereas when he's at Liverpool, he's settling there and he's still trying to prove himself.

In some sense, he's got this huge price tag

Most of the Liverpool fans wouldn't have seen a lot of him before he arrived in England.

And so when he's playing for Germany, he's sort of oozing that confidence because he's been there, seen it and done it in the national team jersey and with Leverkusen.

But when he's with Liverpool, there's a constant...

two times a week, whenever they're playing, a Tuesday, a Wednesday or a Saturday, what's Florian Wirtz going to do?

Where was Florian Wirtz today?

And also he's playing on a side that has patently struggled for any sort of momentum.

So I think he goes back to Germany, it's almost like it's a nice break for him because they're not sort of saying, what's Florian Wirtz doing in the national team?

What position is he?

Where's the goals?
