Schloterbeck: Tower is excellent and very good at communicating on the court. We complement each other very well.

Tomorrow morning, October 13, Germany will challenge Northern Ireland in an away game in the World Cup preliminaries. Before the game, Schlotterbeck attended a press conference with German coach Nagelsmann.

The atmosphere at Windsor Park

"I think this is the kind of game footballers are waiting for. It may be smaller here but it's just as noisy. I'm really looking forward to the atmosphere and this game. We hope to build on that against Northern Ireland to stay on the small side. The first position in the group. "

The way Northern Ireland plays

"Just like in the Bundesliga, there are many teams who play behind the ball, so you have to be alert and proactive with and without the ball. "

Your physical condition

"I am in good shape and have a long time to prepare. Of course, I need an extra day to recover, but I have a long time to lay the foundation for everything. I have rarely been so fit and well-trained. I can play the full 90 minutes tomorrow. "

Cooperation with Jonathan Tower

"He's a very good communicator on the court. That's important to me. Defensively, he's an extremely good defender. I always enjoy playing with him. The ball side of things is more interesting to me, but maybe he's the better defender and we complement each other very well in that regard. "
