According to German Sky Sports, various signs indicate that against Northern Ireland, Nagelsmann may change into a 3-back/5-back formation. After training, Laum and LeWilling practice crossing for a long time, and they are most likely to appear on the left. Dortmund's two players Anton and Gross also have the chance to be selected. Andrish is considered a possible candidate with his mindset. But will Jonatan Ta be excluded from the starting lineup? After yesterday's training, Nagelsman had a long one-on-one conversation with him. Kimmich is expected to continue as the center of the midfield. Offensively, Wilz, Gnabry and Waltermad are expected to continue to gain opportunities.
