Struggling to explain his genius to the hoi polloi
By that reasoning we would never be allowed to criticise any decisions made on and besides the pitch, effectively making a discussion board about football useless.I get the Dormund fans backing Durm and I'm no fan of Höwedes at LB either, but Löw and the coaching staff will have a better reasoning for playing Höwedes than us sofa-coaches. They actually work with these guys.
Hell, if it was up to me I'd play Lahm at LB!
Neuer
Boateng - Merte - Hummels - Lahm
Kroos - Schweini - Khedira
Özil - Müller - Götze/Schürrle/not Podolski
I can also only speak for myself, but I seperate club football and nation football in my mind. If I could somehow make Alaba German instead of Austrian I would be overjoyed, eventhough it would make the Bayern block even greater in the national team. It is all about the success and the style of football we can produce as a team. If the best possible team would mean having not a single Dortmund player as starter but having the best shot at the title I would take that.
On top of that, Durm is favoured by a far bigger group of people than just Dortmund fans.
