He can't keep his internal monologue...internal. He and Bayern have little teeth in this, and it's a bad way of standing up for their guy. They aren't going to be able to stop Kimmich, Gnabry, Goretzka and Sule from playing in matches that matter for Germany.

That said, Neuer has been great this season and has not shown a reason why he should lose his starting spot and captaincy. He needed most of last year just to play like himself again.

Why was he named captain? Ask Jogi. I'd guess it's because he knew he was going to be putting Mats, Boateng and Thomas out to pasture. That moved caused a big rift with Bayern, I believe, and this is just continuation of that. Giving Neuer the band was just a weak offering from Jogi because he knew what was coming.

Bayern always wants to be FC Germany (and, secondarily, FC France) and they're going to be pissed every time one of their guys is frozen out. Uli just can't keep it to himself.


Still can't shut up...

Will really be FC Germany if he can snag Kai and Leroy. But damnit, stop talking about it.
