Goretzka is likely to start against Union Berlin. Thiago missed training these two days with a cold and Goretzka formed the midfield of the starting 11 in training together with Kimmich and Müller, according to Bild.
Goretzka is annoyed by his substitute role. In the last six games he was only once in the starting line-up and moaned for his goal in the 2-0 win over Augsburg: "Of course I'm not happy if I don't play from the start. I can say that openly and honestly."
He will probably be able to gplay from the start in Union Berlin clash. Thiago was absent on Wednesday & Thursday due to a cold. In yesterday's training, Goretzka, together with Kimmich and Müller, formed the central midfield of the supposed line-ups.
Goretzka: "I feel that I am in top shape right now. Probably the best shape in my career so far. I feel accordingly good."
