The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 striker is willing to take his chances and wants to prove his mettle for Die Mannschaft in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
Miroslav Klose is in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sweden-c3015, Republic
of Ireland, Austria, Faroe Islands and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kazakhstan-c2931 in Group C of the World Cup qualifiers.
Klose admitted that he is keen to cement his place in the starting line-up in the upcoming qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858. The player insisted that he wants to prove his form to the team and wants to be selected on
merit rather than what he has achieved in the last few years for the national side.
The former Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich striker stressed that he is still fit and is confident that he will make the squad for the next World Cup. He is also willing to compete with the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733 and Mario Gomez for
a place in the starting line-up and is targeting more goals.
“I want to be judged by my performances and not what I may have already achieved in the national team. What I certainly do not want is carte blanche. Of course I am aiming for a place in Brazil 2014 and as long as I am physically
fit, I am not scared of competition,” the attacker was quoted as saying in an interview.
On the other hand, national team coach Joachim Low has claimed that no player has a guaranteed place in the starting XI. He stated that every player will have to prove his form and fitness, and is delighted with the strong competition
for places in the squad.
“There are no guarantees or entitlements in our team. We have moved on from two years ago and the competition has increased. It is up to everybody to prove themselves,” he concluded.
