"After a setback cost him a comeback last weekend for Der Klassiker vs. Borussia Dortmund, Manuel Neuer is expected to play against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday per Bild: This is a little shocking, given the high stakes ahead on the schedule - and maybe an unnecessary risk."
"However, it has long been thought that Neuer calls the shots on when he plays. True or not, it does not matter much in this case. If Bild is correct, Neuer will be back in between the sticks on Friday night."
Manuel Neuer suffered a setback that prevented him from playing in Bayern Munich's Der Klassiker match against Borussia Dortmund last weekend. Despite the high stakes of upcoming fixtures, Neuer is expected to return to goal for Friday's match against Borussia Mönchengladbach according to Bild. The decision may seem risky given the demanding schedule ahead, but Neuer has historically maintained significant control over his playing decisions. If the report is accurate, Neuer will resume his position as Bayern's starting goalkeeper for the Friday night fixture.
