Aleksandar Pavlovic for Leon Goretzka

Goretzka has played fairly well since getting his place back in the team. However, his technical deficiencies are still apparent at times, and he was not at his best against Gladbach. Before the break, Pavlovic was slowly integrated back into the side, so after three weeks, he is surely in a position to start games now.

Although perhaps not as athletic as Goretzka, the 20-year-old is every bit as good defensively and gives Bayern a lot more crispness on the ball, particularly in deep areas during build-up play. It is clear he is the future of the club, and he will only develop by starting games. Time to make this switch.
