I think there is a fair argument to be made that Moritz Nicolas deserves a call up to the national team.
He is better than Dahmen right now.

PLAYER RATING | Arsenal 3-1 Bayern Munich
Bayern lose for the first time in any competition this season. Arsenal by far the better team this evening as Vincent Kompany's side have plenty to think about.

I was doubtful about Haris Tabakovic joining Gladbach in the summer.
But, it is safe to say, I was wrong.
He is basically in the form of his life and on track to best his 22 goals with Hertha.
Will be interesting to see how Polanski uses him and Kleindienst.

Leverkusen throughly deserved that win.
They were strong in defence and were able to nullify most of what City did.
Quansah, Flekken, Bade, Maza (of course Grimaldo) all stand outs.
