Philipp Lahm Still Unsure Of Position

[Folami David]

Germany captain Philipp Lahm has said that while he enjoys switching between right-back and the defensive midfield position, he wants to settle on one role before the 2014 World Cup.
.
Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola has largely used the 29-year-old as a number six, a lone defensive midfielder playing in front of the back four, this season for the Bundesliga champions.
.
National coach Joachim Loew also carried on the trend by deploying Lahm in that role for last month's 5-3 World Cup qualifier win against Sweden in Stockholm.
.
Guardiola fielded Lahm as a number six in Bayern's 1-0 win at Viktoria Pilsen on Tuesday which confirmed Munich's place in the Champions League's knock-out phase.
.
While Lahm has said he has no problem switching, he wants to go into next June's Brazil World Cup in one position.
.
"There is an option for Jogi Loew to let me run out as a number six," Lahm told magazine Sport Bild.
.
"We will certainly talk about it, but in the tournament, there should be no surprises or spontaneous changes of position."
.
Lahm said that players are not always happy "changing from match to match. You have to adapt to a position", but says he feels comfortable playing in midfield.
