Sané in the middle just works in my opinion because he has no right to be as consistent defensively as he is, he can play some insane knife-edged passes, his close control and dribbling are unbelievable, and if all else fails, he can shoot from distance when given the slightest amount of space. Sané has the work rate and engine to drop back and collect the ball from Kimmich but he also has the positional awareness to run into pockets where Kimmich can find him with a penetrative pass.

Once again, one of Upamecano or De Ligt can break the line and push to pressure loose balls while Blind tucks in with the remaining centre-back to form a back two. With Davies and Mazraoui pushing forward, Blind can sit between the centre-backs, allowing Matthijs de Ligt and Dayot Upamecano to spread wider in build-up.
