"I'm pleased with goals and assists, especially because it means I'm helping the team," the 24-year-old said.
"But I'm also happy when I'm not involved in goals but we still win. My main job is to defend, to make sure we don't concede. And we need to improve there."
Kimmich and co now turn their attention to the Champions League as they face Liverpool in a tasty fixture.
