One by one
Vincenzo Fiorillo: A very solid, agile and confident goalkeeper. Has a balanced body and great reflexes, he is very secure in aerial game. Quick movements, clears the ball if he is overwhelmed with work. Has personality and a strong character.
Dennis Diekmeier: Very offensive and intelligent right back, with and without ball. Loves to go forward and makes field wider. His crosses are very interesting, he also has a very good individual technique. Needs to improve his individual deffence.
Matteao Gentili: Elegant full back, has good physic and technique, is able to play the ball from his position with criteria, doesn´t like to raffle it. However, he lacks of a bit of speed in large distances and suffers when he goes out of his place in the pitch.
Florian Jungwirth: Strong, serious, aggresive, calmed central back. He is very selfless and always tries to do the better for the team. Acceptable technique, can move forward with the ball if he considers it aproppiate. Always looking to help teammates, is the captain of his team. A rock.
Michelangelo Albertazzi: Very strong and physic left back. Accepatble individual technique, doesn´t get complicated when he has ball possession. He isn´t afraid of colliding with other players, his speed is quite good aswell. Needs to gain pace, maybe his game style is too physic.
Marcel Risse: Dinamic, balanced and complete right winger. Good technique, quick movements, hard-working, selfless, involved. His crosses to area are also very interesting, he has individual skills to be important for the team. Constant and with great aerobic capacity. Excellent team player, maybe he lacks of a bit of imagination with the ball.
Jan Hable: Deffensive central miedfileder, prefers to be the only one to do the most deffensive work in the centre. Makes sacrifices for the team, he is very aggresive and covers lot of distance in each match. Does necessary tactical fouls, has very good tackling, gives help to teammates. Balanced and strong, has an acceptable technique, however prefers other to distribute the ball and go forward to attack.
Attila Busai: He puts oneself very well inside the pitch, mainly always is in the right place. Tall and strong, has a great stride, however he lacks of some movement speed. Likes to sum to attack, his mid and large distance shot is very deangerous. Has criteria with ball possession, control both short and long passing skills. Calmed, doesn´t get complicated when he is in trouble.
Fernando Martin Forestieri: Small and quick forward or winger. Very techinique and bold player, always tries to beat his defender using his individual skills. Dummy and great dribbling. However, he hasn´t got too much force and needs to improve his game reading to be more decisive, sometimes he is too individualist.
Tomáš Necid: A great reference striker, mainly all attacking balls of the Czech Republic searched him. Very dangerous in aerial balls and hitting the crosses from free kicks. Strong, powerful and intelligent in the pitch, knows how to get goal chances. Can play both face and back to goal. However, he lacks of a bit of technique -he isn´t bad in this aspect either- and speed movements, especially in long distances.
Krisztián Németh: Super intelligent striker, understands the game and knows what he has to do in every moment to damage the rival team. Outstanding skill to lose defender´s marker, always tries to go ahead or get the back of the defender who is nearest him. Very good technique and passing ability, enjoys doing combinations with teammates. Excellent hitting the cross straight into the goal, has goal and a very dangerous shot. Dinamic, quick, hard-working. Involves in team defensive game, he is always ready to put pressure on the opponent.

I make a research and... cant believe it! Diekmeier and Risse are midfielders. They were played out of position during the Euro. So was Gebhart((winger) in the U17 WC (they had Kroos). So he wasn't that impressive in that tournament.
Maybe this year the Germans needed a rightback but they cant find one so Diekmeier had to play as a rightback. So he wasn't that faultless as a defenssive player. Even Naki isn't a proper striker. They say his natural position is supporting striker/left midfielder or something.
Wow the Germans have many promising midfielders
You are welcome!
I think the position where Diekmeier can give his best is a right back. He needs to improve deffensively, but in attack he is awesome from that position.
Naki is a second forward that can also play as offensive miedfielder, as striker or as a wing.
Thank you for your answers and reports!
I like Diekmeier much. His team Bremen is attacking-minded. Unlike Bayern they are quite goood at developing youngsters so it's good for him. And if he can develope as rightback it's very good because it would be hard for him to get a place as a midfielder either in Germany NT or at Bremen.
I admit Naki is quite decent as a striker (though quite a lot of people would say it isn't his best position). I just think it's funny that the Germans are forcing many natural AMs to play as striker (Podolski, Aaron Hunt, Dejagah, Chuopo-Moting, Naki,etc...). Sometimes the result is good. But not all the time, Dejagah and Podolski both make it clear that they don't like that position much.
Podolski is still used as a striker by his club but he's better as a left midfielder (like he's used in his national team). Hunt has returned to his natural position.
But also it seems that Germany actually have some natural offensive allrounders, just like Nsereko, Lewis Holtby (U18), Felix Kroos(U17). I 've never seen Holtby or Kroos play but people talk many great things about their versatility, intelligence and good technique. Kroos must have taken all the versatility from his brother
because Toni Kroos is only good as a playmaker. I like that boy alot! What a shame he is injured in the game against Hamburg (and how could Klinsmann let an injured player play the whole match?). Now he cant joined their U21 side in their trip to Moldavia.
I haven´t see either Holtby and Felix Kroos. I agree with your evaluation of Toni Kroos.
Other talented german youngster that I like very much but isn´t having enough opportunities is Änis Ben-Hatira.
Hi,
Tomas Necid is playing well for Slavia so far - 7 goals in 10 matches.
I may be wrong, but I think Slavia has a good reputation for promoting/purchasing youth.
Slavia actually has a French player on loan from Inter Milan, a Tijani Belaid, midfielder, who is also scoring for them. He has 6 goals in 10 matches, though those have come in 3 matches where he has scored 2 goals per match.
One Czech player to watch (this is based on age and minutes) for the future is:
Antonín Fantiš: a 16 year old forward getting minutes at FK Pribram. He has yet to score, but he is fourth in terms of minutes played for Pribram's forwards. He has actually started twice.
Thanks again for the blog.
Cheers!
