    I mean… Let’s be honest, we all knew that once Neuer was back there was no real chance of fighting back. Sommer knew that and any keeper who knows their worth know that.

      Disagree. If a keeper showed really promising performances while neuer couldn’t play, I think there would have been an open fight for the spot. Even before his injury, Neuer was already on the decline a bit.

        Even in the best case scenario for Nübel (him playing great and Neuer performing badly after coming back), Neuer wouldn’t have simply accepted the situation. He surely would have tried to influence the media (like he did with his accident), the trainer or Uli to put him back in charge.
