On the grass pitch in Frankfurt
“Unfortunately, the pitch quality in Frankfurt was a disaster. Many players were slipping, especially those who like to change direction frequently, like Musiala.”
On the Euro squad selection
“If the players we’ve called up now stay fit, we won’t make 10 changes to the Euro squad, not even five. Maybe one or two adjustments at most. Those who weren’t called up in March need to show exceptional performance compared to those who were, to have a chance.”
