Nagelsmann: Sane has been my love for many years, but he also has to prove himself to his critics

The German team is currently playing against Luxembourg. The German team coach Nagelsmann defended the criticized Sane before the game and responded to the remarks of German stars Matthaus, Sammer and others.

Regarding the call-up of Sane, Nagelsmann said: "We also want to send a signal that a call-up is not a free pass, but there are some things that must be done. I have also discussed this topic with Sane in advance."

Nagelsmann's attitude is very clear: "I have told Sane that I will speak out these words. I am not doing it for fun or nonsense, nor am I doing it on my own initiative. Zhang, but discussed it with him in advance, just to send a signal-after a very negative response, he was indeed asked to perform."

The decision to call up Sane caused a lot of controversy. Matthaus wrote in the column that Nagelsmann "never excluded Sane", while Sammer emphasized that a personal player like Sane "needs love. A lot of love, a lot of love."

In response to the latter's remarks, Nagelsmann also responded on Thursday night: "A lot of love. He got this kind of love from me for many years. I know what he can do. I hope he brings what he can do to the field. But he should also prove to those who criticize him very much what an incredible good football player he is. There was never a "last chance" for Sane, but Nagelsmann added: "But it's also true that he got some trust advances from me, and sometimes he used them well and sometimes he didn't. Anyway, Sane is a very cool guy and can handle pressure situations very well."

Although Germany team forward Walter Mader has known Sane for a short time, he still spoke for his teammate: "He is a very, very cool guy. It is always full of laughter and laughter with him. Even if you are new, he will make you feel very comfortable. In terms of personality, Sane is a really good type."

Regarding Sane's football ability, Walter Mader also said Zan Youjia: "His left-foot skills are unusual, especially coupled with that kind of explosiveness. As a forward, you can generally benefit from this kind of player. Players who are threatening in front of the goal are always helpful, and I think Sane is very threatening. He can pass the ball, dribble, open up various situations and score goals. This is why he is here."
