What is Jogi Low's basic philosophy

Err?

They didn't practice these early on in the training camp. No wonder with many players still not having arrived. Löw said at the time that he'd practice set-pieces later on in preparation.

To be sure, Flick is on record that he'd emphasise set-pieces more than Löw.

But how on earth do you construe this to mean Löw doesn't practice them at all?!?

Pure hyperbole?
In regards to set-pieces, one might add that Löw wants as few fouls as possible. He wants the game to flow and avoid dangerous set-pieces as best as possible.

I appreciate your posts detailing some of the literature on the subject.

Regarding set-pieces, Jogi would be better to say he doesn't practice them at all, because it certainly appears that way on the pitch.

his philosophy is whatever Flick tells him.

Flick said thats the one thing he would change about Low, its his ignoring set pieces so Low is pretty much alone on that and its not something he's getting from his assistant.
