Bottom line for me is that we need a proper DoF though. To me the transfer policy has been questionable for years. There were a couple times we were close and seemingly a good player or two away. That’s no longer the case (IMO). We need to rebuild the back line and make the midfield work. The midfield has been a glaring issue and while I was pleasantly surprised with the impact of PEH, it wasn’t enough. Even today he got the yellow and there’s no one else who can come on for him. There’s no one to shift into his role and we’re basically stuck. (I would’ve brought on Rodon in his place and pushed Dier forward, but I didn’t look to see if he was on the bench today).

Anyway, I digress, we need a DoF. I hope it’s Rangnick, but he’s free and I hoped we do that quickly so her could properly prepare.
Yeah, it seems fairly common knowledge that that ship has sailed.

Low is going to manage Germany through the Euros and Flick has already told Bayern that he's not coming back because after the Euros he's likely taking over the German National Team.

It seems he was always going to, it just seemed that he was waiting for Low to decide to move on or for the DFB to can him, but it seems that Flick was always the natural next choice.

Flick had a really good run with Bayern.
