He’s simply one of the best deep build-up midfielders in posession around. I don’t think he should be judged too much on how spectacular his game looks, but rather on his reliability.
He makes everything look incredibly simple, which is probably why his performances don’t always seem that impressive at first glance.
But at the same time, he gets all the little details within the game almost perfectly right.

This is yet another reminder that the coach responsible for Ibrahim Maza's age group at the DFB went from U15 to U17 over the course of three years without nominating him a single time, despite the fact that his talent was obvious. The same coach also failed to recognize the potential of Kenan Yıldız and Can Uzun within the same age group and did the same to them, and there are other questionable stories.
Despite that track record, Marc Meister remains in a key position within the DFB and is currently responsible for the U15s, where some of his selections for the first two matches of this age group have once again raised serious questions.
At what point do the media start holding him and the @DFB accountable and demanding consequences for years of failure in one of the most important positions in German youth football?
A coach who completely overlooked players such as Ibrahim Maza, Kenan Yıldız, and Can Uzun should not continue to have a decisive say in identifying and developing Germany's next generation of talent. The cost of these mistakes is simply too high for German football.

If you want to sign a backup so badly, there can be other options. It might not be as visible atm but there definitely can be.
Or you can be smart and allocate big money to sign actual needle movers and keep the bar high.
Problem with signing these players is unloading them-

The response of most people on such a game will be "they need to defend better, take less risks", but that's what everyone tries: You end up with 20% possession and still concede 3 goals.
Today is a breaking point of football. Defending is dead. It's a score-more logic now.
