Dietmar Hamann questioned Nathaniel Brown's latest call-up by Germany coach Jürgen Klopp. Brown is currently Bayern Munich's third-choice left-back.
Hamann on Brown's selection
Television pundit Hamann said on Sky: "What surprised me a little was Brown's selection."
Hamann added: "They don't seem to trust him at the back."
Brown's role at Bayern
Alphonso Davies started in Bayern Munich's 2-2 draw against Borussia Dortmund, while Josip Stanisic started in the 2-0 win away at Atletico Madrid.
The injury crisis led interim head coach Aaron Danks to keep Brown in reserve as an attacking option off the bench. Danks brought Brown on as a number 10 on both occasions.
Brown has started at left-back in six of Bayern Munich's 15 competitive matches so far in the season. He moved from Eintracht Frankfurt to Bayern Munich for 50 million euros.
Klopp on the positioning
At the time, Klopp made a joking dig at Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany over Brown's positioning: "Now we finally have a left-back, and then he plays as a number 10."
Hamann said: "If you're a good footballer, anyone can play as a number 10 in Munich because you have 80 per cent possession."
Germany's defensive options
Maximilian Mittelstädt is in the Germany squad again. David Raum is absent for the Nations League matches against Serbia on 13 November and Holland on 16 November.
