The skipper expects his Bayern Munich teammate to be fit for the upcoming European championship.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bastian-Schweinsteiger-c7374 suffered a calf injury during training and there are doubts that the player will miss the start of the Euro 2012 through injury. The midfielder has not been training with the national team squad in the past
few days and is continuing his rehabilitation with just over a week left for the competition to start.
The Bayern Munich midfielder had an injury filled season last term with the Bavarian giants and missed most part of the second-half of the campaign. He suffered an ankle injury which kept him out for almost two months as Toni Kroos
took his place in the central midfield.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Philipp-Lahm-c29929 claimed that Germany certainly needs players such as Schweinsteiger in the team if they need to challenge for the championship next month. He admitted that Bastian is a vital part of the squad and could turn out to
be an important player if he remains fit.
The defender stressed that there are still many options in case Schweinsteiger remains injured. Lahm insisted that the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lars-Bender-c21663 are all capable of playing in the first team for Germany
and hailed the immense talent they have.
The captain added that he is not worried as Die Mannschaft have great depth in the squad and is aiming to lift the Euro 2012 trophy. He admitted that the team has a huge responsibility of performing at the competition as the fans
have high expectations.
“Of course you want players as experienced as Bastian fully fit going into this tournament. But I'm assuming that he will be fit for the European Championships. And even if that is not the case, the team still has plenty of strength
in depth in that position. So, I'm not worried,” the defender was quoted as saying in an interview.
