He has since played and scored for their u-23's. Apparently Bayern are pissed that the new coach isn't playing him. Fact is he needs 4-5 years of maturation and muscle building before he's anywhere near an automatic start for the national team and if he falls into the trap that so many US phenom's fall into of bouncing from club to club and never settling in, he never will be. Bayern should look into an MLS loan this summer. He'd be good in Portland, DC, Dallas or LA. That won't happen because MLS and Bayern are equally weird and stubborn, but he needs minutes, minutes, minutes.
