I'm not such a big fan of your national club style of playing.Germany isn't so creative,they don't have that free spirit as Romania for example.What I like is the determination of the players,not so techincal but they fight for victory.

Hey Vladi, I think you missed the last games of our national team! :eek: ;)
And you should have watched Germany in 1990 and especially between 1970 and 1976...

Borussia,glad to see you here...I only saw some games of Germany's national team,what made my opinion about germany's style of football was the Bundesliga.Anyway,how's Sergiu Neagu doing?

I invite you to a Bundesliga game, mate! ;) Come to Nürnberg when they play Bayern or to Mönchengladbach when they play Köln ... and I bet you'll be overwhelmed! :-)
About the national team: We often didn't play a beautiful style in the past (at least we were successful:-) ... however, we really can't complain about the time since Klinsmann/Löw. Currently we have a good mixture of experienced & young, hungry players and use to play an attractive football style!
Btw: What do you mean with that Neagu guy?

how i love stereotypes.
Also i will never understand from where it comes that ppl think germany has no creative players, they actually had some of the best of all time in that department.
Sure we never played like Brazilians (their style was often over the top and just since they play more like europeans they are so successfull) but that doesnt mean Germany didnt play some nice football.
Especially nowadays germany plays a fast and technical good football and i dont see any other teams actually playing better football on national team level in the last 12 months.
The critic is also not valid for german club football. Teams like Stuttgart, Bremen or Nürnberg play good and modern football. Seems to me more like german clubs are judged on how many "world stars" they have and ofc in that area they lose vs italien, spanish oder english clubs but its not like the clubs there play just beautifull football.

People loooooove to generalize.
Again, an example of a person outside the "circles" of german football that really doesn't know much about it.

Is there anything that is different in this thread as opposed to the other thread we just closed?

As this issue was discussed ad nauseum in another thread, this one is closed.
