Knee issue lingering Neuer was not involved in training Tuesday, being forced to take a break due to mild knee problems, according to the club. Impact Neuer appears to only be dealing with a minor injury right now, but there is still some concern around the knock, as they will not want to lose their starting keeper after he was already out for an extended period to start the campaign. It seems as if the club is taking the situation cautiously, as during his last injury earlier this season, he constantly was aggravating the injury or picking up a new issue in another area while getting back in training, and they will want to avoid that this time around. He still has plenty of time to recover before Saturday's pivotal match against Leverkusen, so at the moment, he should be considered an option for the contest.
