After a strong preseason capped by a volley goal against Liverpool, Frans Krätzig has gone one to feature five times for Bayern Munich's senior squad so far this season. From those appearances, the 20-year old has tallied one goal and an assist, both of which came in the DFB-Pokal; in the 4-0 win over SC SC PreuÃen Münster and the shock, 2-1 loss to FC Saarbrücken.
Tuchel opted to start Sarr at left back in Bayern's 4-2 over Heidenheim since Davies started from the bench, but Krätzig was an unused substitute. In the Bundesliga, he has only featured in the 7-0 win over VfL Bochum, the 3-0 win over SC Freiburg, and the 8-0 win over Darmstadt. Case in point, Tuchel has only brought him on in situations where Bayern was already winning by multiple goals and well in control of the match. There might not be that full level of trust yet from the manager.
"If Bayern still need me in the second half of the season, I'll be at the door at 7AM when training restarts. If something changes and my prospects of playing time decrease, a loan could also make sense. But I'm not thinking about that at the moment. The focus is on development and game time," the youngster recently explained.
