Angelo Stiller entered March international games after a difficult period and was initially not called up for reasons he knows. After being brought in, he played two very good matches without letting pressure affect his performance. Nagelsmann described Stiller as one of the most consistent deep-lying holding midfielders in the league, pairing him with Pavlovic as a reliable midfield duo. Stiller’s strong second half of the season proved vital for Stuttgart and strengthened his World Cup chances. He may now be considered for a starting role within Nagelsmann’s midfield group.
"“Angelo was in a difficult situation before March's international games. He wasn't called up initially for reasons he knows. But then we brought him and he played two very good games. He didn't let the pressure get to him. If we're talking about two deep-lying holding midfielders, with Pavlovic and him, they are the two most consistent holding midfielders we have in the league. Angelo absolutely deserves his place in the squad because he has earned it through consistently strong performances,” Nagelsmann said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia)."
"Stiller's strong second half of the season was vital for Stuttgart and - as it turns out - his own World Cup hopes. Now, he could be in line for a starting role in Nagelsmann's midfield group."
