In 7 days, Oliver Bierhoff will present the DFB with his analysis regarding the current situation of the NT. The DFB will then make a decision regarding the future of Jogi Löw. The latter doesn't want to resign and is now open to a return of Müller, Hummels & Boateng [Bild] pic.twitter.com/cZA4RKhP78

Agree, hes desperate, but hopefully DFB bite the bullet and move him on.

LOL Neuhaus scores past 6 players, entire Schalke defense couldn't stop him.

White/Blue_since1860 · Nov 28, 2020

lmao

Epitome990 · Nov 28, 2020

The all-time meme German lineup is incomplete without the likes of Sandro Wagner, Lasogga and Grosskreutz

Ger90 · Nov 28, 2020

LMAO, Tim Wiese could likely kill with his bare hands.

Karl-Heinz Riedle · Nov 28, 2020

Somehow young players such as a Florian Neuhaus, Ridle Baku, Mergim Berisha and Felix Uduokhai should be used in the senior NT.

We as fans, the media and Joachim Loew (n his team) should have known what Tah, Rudiger, Henrichs, Waldschmidt, Draxler, Niklas Stark and maybe even the current Reus and Kroos can provide. Maybe not much value in the current setup. I would drop these players

If Moukoko and Mergim Berisha can make it in time for the 2021 Euro, I think DFB have some very good options in attack: Sané, Gnabry, Havertz, Werner, Jonas Hofmann, Moukoko and Berisha.

we might not need Draxler, Reus or Waldschmidt anymore. They are proven , but Loew should go for higher upside and potential

Klosterman> Baku

Ger90 · Nov 28, 2020

if every player is fit none of U21 players would make Seniors. Baku got called up due to emergency for 1 game and then back to U21.

U21 Euro GS is March and Knockouts are May/June. Don't see any U21 player getting taken from that. U21 also have Olympics in Summer.

Baku is also likely 1st choice RB for U21.

Alex C · Nov 29, 2020

Beyond the summer Baku should be a good option for the NT though, he is playing consistently well for Wolfsburg and even scored another nice goal v Bremen on Friday.

Could be good competition/back up for Klostermann, better then Kehrer or Henrichs at this point imo.

For me the defensive selection for the Euros should be -

CB Hummels, Boateng, Sule, Ginter
RB Klostermann, Kehrer
LB Halstenberg, Gosens

No more mediocre/bench players at CB.

Beyond that hopefully the likes of Friedrich, Uduokhai, Torunarigha and Kempf can continue to improve whilst we wait for the highly rated next gen like Mai and Collins to break through.

Koch is good . A little bit inconsistent at this point, but he has some very interesting attributes. Especially his ball playing against high press

Koch can play at DM too. We lack some depth there. And being able to train week in, week out Under Bielsa can be a big plus

not too sure about Süle being a guarantee. Has been very unconvincing since his comeback. Out of shape n unbelievably clumsy. Not a regular starter in Bayern

Uduokhai has elite aerial ability. Also having an Amazing season imo. Can also have cameo appearance up top

for now, I would say Hummels, Ginter, Koch, Boateng, Uduokhai... in that pecking order

DFB-SPITZE SUPPORTS JOACHIM LÖW ON THE FURTHER PATH WITH DFB TEAM

In a conference call on Monday, the DFB Presidium agreed to unreservedly continue the path of renewing the national team with national coach Joachim Löw, which has been taken since March 2019. The Presidium followed a recommendation by the Presidial Committee and by Oliver Bierhoff, Director of National Teams & Academy.

On Monday morning, the members of the Presidential Committee (President Fritz Keller, 1st Vice-President Amateurs Rainer Koch, 1st Vice-President Professional Football Peter Peters, Treasurer Stephan Osnabrügge; General Secretary Friedrich Curtius was absent due to illness) met Oliver Bierhoff and Joachim Löw in Frankfurt am Main. It was important for the national coach to discuss the current situation, the defeat against Spain and the months ahead of the European Championship in an open, constructive and intensive exchange. Joachim Löw informed the participants about his assessments, ideas and further plans. The members of the Executive Committee agreed that what counts is the high-quality work of the coaching staff, the intact relationship between the team and the coach and a clear concept for the previous and future procedures. A single game cannot and must not be a yardstick for the general performance of the national team and the national coach.

The DFB Presidium agrees: On the way to the EM 2021, important sporting goals have already been achieved - including the EM qualification, staying in League A of the Nations League and positioning in the first lottery pot in the World Cup qualification. Accordingly, Joachim Löw continues to have the trust of the DFB Presidium.

The defeat of the national team against Spain was also discussed in the conversation with the national coach and in the following telephone conference of the DFB presidium. For everyone - the players, the national coach, the DFB, the fans and the public interested in football - the 6-0 win against Spain was a disappointment.

Together, the view is purposeful and focused on the further preparations for the European Championship next year. There is a firm conviction that Joachim Löw and his coaching team will deliver successful games and results despite a challenging situation for everyone. The national coach will take all necessary measures to play an exciting European Championship in 2021 with the team. The national coach's assessment also receives approval that subsequent tournaments - specifically the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and the 2024 European Championship, which will take place in their own country - must already play a role as perspectives and sporting goals in further sporting and personal considerations at this point in time.

Anyone want to bet with me that even if we got eliminated from GS, Loew will still become our coach on WM 2022???

Thomsen · Nov 30, 2020

A very sad day for German football and its fans

Epitome990 · Nov 30, 2020

Lol not surprising at all. Predictions for the EM group stages:

Germany 1-3 France
Germany 1-3 Portugal
Germany 2-1 Hungary

White/Blue_since1860 · Nov 30, 2020

2004 again mood

Ger90 · Nov 30, 2020

wouldn't be surprised if Germany makes comeback at home 2024 (new 2006) and that 2021-2022 we are more 2000-2004 era, lol.

Important sporting goals have been achieved?

EM qualification? 24 team EM is hard not to qualify for ffs..

Staying in League A? Only team Germany have ever beaten in NL was Ukraine B x2, having been reprieved from relegation thanks to UEFA reorganising the competition.

Positioning in the first lottery pot in the World Cup qualification? There are 10 ********ing seeds, you literally only need to be in the top 10 ranked european teams to achieve this.

If these are viewed as sporting achievements by a country that has won 4 World Cups then everyone might as well give up. How low has the bar been set?
