Ismael Saibari is already facing criticism in Germany. Following Bayern Munich’s goalless draw against Schalke 04, Dietmar Hamann delivered a particularly harsh judgment on the positioning and speed qualities of the Moroccan international.<\/p>\n
“Saibari is a wonderful footballer, but he is too slow. He is not fast, he resembles a poor Kane,” said the former German international on the show Sky90<\/em>. Starting at the forefront of the attack in the absence of Harry Kane, the Moroccan was substituted in the 57th minute after a difficult match for the entire Bavarian offensive sector. Sky Sport Germany published a clip of this statement.<\/p>\n Hamann specifically doubts Saibari’s ability to occupy multiple offensive positions: “They say he can play in four positions. I think the only position he can play is behind Kane, because he is too slow to play on the wing. But in that position, Gnabry is a class above.”<\/p>\n This criticism comes after encouraging beginnings for the Moroccan in the Bundesliga. Coming on as a substitute against Stuttgart on the opening day, Saibari provided two assists in Bayern’s 5-1 victory. His more subdued performance against Schalke, in his first league start, has quickly sparked debate in Germany.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ismael Saibari is already facing criticism in Germany.
