His head is not completely free at the moment.“I never expected his career to experience such a phase.” Grosskreutz is not the first to have advised Gotze to look elsewhere for regular game time, with former Germany captain Lothar Matthaus having done likewise. "His form, which he had before the 2014 World Cup and included his winning goal in the final, is behind him,” Matthaus said."For him, you would have to invent a system at Borussia Dortmund that does not exist right now.”</blockquote>
