Effenberg talks about 17-year-old Bayern youngster Karl: He should not be compared with Messi, he must be allowed to grow

In Bayern's 6-2 victory over Freiburg, 17-year-old Lennart Karl performed eye-catchingly. He not only contributed one pass and one shot, but also showed excellent dribbling skills and stability in ball control. This performance triggered a heated discussion among the guests of the German SPORT1 program.

Almin Fiskar's potential

"He will have an extraordinary career. This kid is very good, and he knows it. His playing style is full of confidence and he is a typical intuitive player. This is an exceptional talent, and I firmly believe that he has a bright future."

Jermaine Jones talks about the pressure of public opinion

"I hold the opposite opinion. He should be exposed more. Whenever possible, we should take the initiative to bring him into the public eye." Effenberg added: "Let him be interviewed."

Effenberg responded to Messi

"Comparing him with Messi is not beneficial. He should be allowed to grow quietly, and general comparisons should not be made, but talent is talent and should not be directly compared. "

Regarding the possibility of participating in the World Cup

Jermaine Jones believes: "He has top qualities, especially his dribbling ability. Karl can continue to learn in games and training, and as long as he continues to absorb progress in the next few years, he will definitely become a top talent."

"People should support him and give him room to grow. He has no stage fright and is a goal threat. Why shouldn't he. Let him gain experience every week?"

"If he becomes Bayern's core player and continues to perform well, why can't he be a World Cup candidate?"

Effenberg concluded: "As long as he stays healthy, has a good mentality and continues to perform, there is no reason to refuse. It only takes one minute for the German team to be short of such a player."
