t1mb0GK: Weidenfeller's undisputed.
RB: Owomoyela will be challenged hard by newly-arrived Piszczek.
CB: Subotic/Hummels as starters with Santana backing them up.
LB: Schmelzer's on the upside but might lose his spot if Dede gets back to full strength.
DM: Kehl might share this one with Bender if he's to play a full season.
CM: Sahin's in control. Hajnal might step in if he's suspended/injured, not more.
RW: Kuba, with Kagawa/Piszczek waiting and maybe another one if Valdez leaves.
LW: Großkreutz will again play his heart out with Kagawa/Mr.X stepping in, when he's getting tired.
PS: Lewandowski is set while Zidan's out and Valdez might leave soon.
ST: Barrios will be covered by Lewandowski/Rangelov and then Hajnal/Zidan playing alongside as AM.
