However, Matthäus would not change the goalkeeper. “That would not be appropriate a week before the European Championships, then there would be unrest, nobody needs that, he had his saves. But of course you can’t avoid the public discussing things now, Julian knows that too.”

Neuer recently showed a world-class performance in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid, but a bad mistake led to Bayern’s demise. He looked bad several times against TSG Hoffenheim on the last Bundesliga matchday.

He made a good save on his return to the DFB goal after 550 days against Ukraine on Monday (0-0). But in the 88th minute he missed a chip ball – this resulted in the 0-1, which was disallowed due to a later offside position.
