Urbig Gets the Nod Over Neuer Tonight vs Osnabrück – Kompany's Call or a Warning Sign?

04 Eyl 10:00

So Kompany confirmed Urbig starts in goal instead of Neuer for the DFB Pokal match against Osnabrück. On one hand it's just a Pokal game vs a lower-division side, totally normal to rotate. On the other hand… Neuer is Neuer. You don't exactly bench him for vibes. Makes me wonder what Kompany is actually evaluating here. Is Urbig being seriously considered as a long-term successor and this is a real audition? Or is this the kind of decision that ends up looking weird if something goes wrong? Also curious how the squad looks overall tonight. Pokal games against 2. Bundesliga teams can get tricky if you don't show up focused, especially away from home. Anyone else following the lineup news? Thoughts on the Urbig call?
