Munich (dpa) - capped player Lothar Matthaeus view at the issue of the German national team captain as more supporters for World Cup Captain Philip Lahm as for Michael Ballack.
"There are two outstanding players. Philipp Lahm did a great job at the World Cup and has the team also suppport. As for Michael Ballack is complicated because I can not see as everyone is for him, "Matthew said on the sidelines of a benefit match in Munich's Allianz Arena. For the coach is not an easy decision.
Ballack had shown what services he is able and he hope that the 33-year-old stay healthy and could again bring these benefits, said the DFB honorary captain. However, the one who switched to Bayer Leverkusen Ballack should also consider whether he can received multiple burden at his age. "I would think about it, at least in his place, "said Matthew.
Lahm, who, like many other World Cup stars does not travel to the friendly match this week to Denmark, restrained to talk about the question of captain. "The decision is all alone with the national coach. I told my views, I expressed that I would like to be captain, as the post is very much fun, "Lahm said in Munich. "It's nice to hear that something like Lothar Matthaeus says and sees me in the position, but no more or less."
