    Flick to disguise himself as a granny with sunglasses.

    what is there to like about Bayer??? Doesn't make sense, from German POV there is nothing but Wirtz.

    Kevin Schade in Sky-IV about
    Flick: "He congratulated me on the move and said that I should keep pushing."

    @DFB_Team : "A childhood dream! My priority is now on Brentford. But it would be a dream. Hopefully he (Flick) will take me with him."

    Funnily enough seems they are struggling to produce elite CB’s or 9’s as well.

    I’m happy with a lot of what Völler is saying but of course talk is cheap, we need to see results from the DFB. I also would like to see DM and RB mentioned as well, again these seem like areas where we’ve struggled to produce enough talents for a while.

    Tbh I still don’t really understand why certain important basics training needed for specialised positions such as CB or CF were ever neglected in the first place.

    Rudi voller is the man of the People. He understands what it means to represent the National team in the era when we were the juggernaut of world football.

    Absolutely agree, I believe he understands the problem. What he can do about it, and get Flick to fall in line, is another matter.

    "win tackles"

    Sounds absurd. I worry this is another old man living in the past.

    The thing he did point out correctly is Argentina don't have better players.

    However the Messi thing is under-appreciated because he enables you to score goals without committing players forward.

    In international football, with less time for drilling etc, it helps to have any easy gameplan

    For me hes spot on. The basic principles that made Germany a power house in world football have been forgotten.

    Organisation
    Art of defending
    Characters
    Team ethics.

    We can instil all these with the technical side of the game then we are somewhere close to the 2014 team which had it all.

    Spain are struggling to produce CFs 100%. Not just that but even in younger age groups, CFs wise it really bodes down to just a few names. if those don't pan out could be years before we see a Spanish CF of any relevance. Less we forget when they poached a Brazilian CF, LOL. Their version of Cacau.

    I think for us, CF is fine, we have slowly growing pool of CF options. And a lot of interesting/promising options for future too.

    and even DM is fine. Issue with DM is more that Flick only interested in 3 Ms and just call up too many attackers. And from those 3 none are DMs.

    RB is real problem position from outfield. Although I feel like its fine with
    Klostermann, Henrichs, Baku it should be fine. None are world class/Elite but you don't need that type for every position.

    I honestly don't think the issue in Qatar was lack of talent

    Talented yes, but too easy to play against.

    Yep - but in the end there are always a number of teams who could win, but crash out due to tactical incoherence, bad luck, squad dynamics, internal feuding etc etc. Argentina only scraped past Holland for example

    '14 was a successful campaign because they learned so much from their mistakes in '12

    I think don't think what Voller is talking about matters much for '24, except they need to have a much tighter team culture. The DfB is truly to blame for wasting '21 on Loew - Flick has not had long with the team - but he needs to use the next year and half wisely

    -Trapp extends


    -Nmecha is back
    Lukas Nmecha is available again for VfL Wolfsburg with immediate effect. The attacker has fully recovered from the torn patella tendon that threw him off track for almost three months and, according to Niko Kovač, has been part of team training since Wednesday. As a result, there are no more losses for Wolfsburg to complain about.

    It remains to be seen whether Nmecha will be enough for a squad place. The long break could mean some start-up time in the team. In addition, the offensive is broad. “Today's session wasn't that intense. I like him at the moment and he looks motivated," explained Kovač. "Now we have to look, because we already have an oversupply of strikers. If one more comes now, then there will be even more.”

    About two weeks ago, the trainer let it be known that Nmecha should be integrated into the squad and the team "step by step". After so few training sessions, it smells more like he's not in the squad against FC Bayern Munich

    I've been lamenting for over a decade the loss of Germany's ironclad fighting mentality which was a trademark of previous generations. Recent generations, particularly during the Löw era, fold at the slightest adversity.

    I agree, but for the vast majority of our history at WC’s we have always been tough to beat, and very rarely gone out before the QF. These last few tournaments were down to poor tactics especially from Low, however there were also weak spots both in mentality and in determination to stop opponents by whatever means necessary. We are never able to neutralise matches once in front.

    This should always be the basis of our identity, it doesn’t have to always be beautiful football but it does need to be tough to play us for every opponent. Currently we are set up perfectly for counter attacking sides to exploit, imo we would almost certainly have lost to Morocco if we’d managed to scrape through the group.

    Defending well, keeping clean sheets, winning the majority of 50/50 challenges, improving our counters and efficiency in attack with fewer players committing forwards should all be priorities, if that means winning ugly a lot so be it. We need more Effenberg types.

    Our old trademark characteristics are definitely missing. We told like a pack of cards in the slightest bit of pressure applied.

    Berisha scores his 6th of season and 1-0 lead vs Bayer Leverkusen. What bad defending, LMAO
    https://streamin.me/v/73494623

    Berisha has now scored vs
    Bayer, Bayern (he always performs vs Bayern even in CL when he was RB Salzburg), Frankfurt, Leipzig, Gladbach, Freiburg

    would be surprising if no call up in March by Flick.
