Hansi #Flick on whether he sees #Kimmich as 6 and on discussions that he needs a more defensive minded player next to him: "I'm convinced that he is really good in this position. Half a year ago Jo was a world-class 6 and now we're questioning him?" [@faznet via @iMiaSanMia] 
Flick: "You can see in Munich that he's someone who offers a lot of solutions with the ball, has an enormous passing quality, he can play passes really precisely and at the right pace. That's exactly what we need in this position."
Flick on not calling up #Süle: "My job is to make sure every player reaches their full potential. Niki could be one of the best defenders. His potential is huge. But I think he still leaves something to be desired. I want him to take a step forward in his attitude and mentality"
Flick on Manuel #Neuer: "Things are going well for Manu. We met briefly in Munich at the Bayern vs Leipzig game. He's a bit ahead of schedule. I'm convinced that when he's fit again he'll be back to his old level."
Will he then automatically be 1 and captain again?
Flick: "We'll decide that when the time comes. Manuel Neuer has shaped goalkeeping for well over 10 years. He's exceptional as a goalkeeper, as well as a person. But he has to – and he knows that – bring his performances."
