“Desmadre” in the German team a few months before the European Championships

The German team is far from being the team that, as the always correct Gary Lineker said, always won important games in the end.

After Hansi Flick’s stormy time with several ridiculous noises It seemed that Julian Nagelsmann’s arrival on the German bench could improve the trajectory of a multi-champion team. Nothing is further from reality.

According to the latest information that appeared in the German press, Players are concerned about coach Julian Nagelsmann’s training methods after a disappointing start on the national team bench.

However, Nagelsmann replaced Hansi Flick in September He only won one of his four games, and his team suffered consecutive defeats against Turkey and Austria during the last international break.

An obvious problem is that the players are of the opinion that the coach is better suited to managing a club and not the team and that he is overtaxing them, according to “Bild”.

Although the mood towards Nagelsmann remains very positive and the team trusts in his tactical skills, the players have since wanted him to simplify his ideas The shortness of the FIFA national team windows makes it difficult to understand the “Nagelsmann revolution”.

His tendency to put players in unfamiliar positions has also attracted attention. Kai Havertz, the Arsenal striker, started at left-back in Germany’s last two gamesalthough he spent most of his career in midfield or attack.

It was particularly surprising for the German players that Havertz started on the left side of defense against Turkey. after just a few training sessions in this position.

Leroy Sané was also moved to the right wing, although he enjoyed most of his success on the left wing of the national team over the years.

The former Bayern Munich coach also enjoys conducting video sessions with his players and has been known to pause training to point out mistakes.

This has left the national team players feeling overwhelmedbecause Nagelsmann is apparently trying to solve several problems at once.

His criticism of Germany’s defensive abilities has also angered some, as the Euro 2024 hosts have not kept a clean sheet in a game since Nagelsmann’s arrival.

The German team has conceded eight goals in four games under Nagelsmann, which led the 36-year-old to make this observation “We are not defense monsters.”

This criticism was not well received by the players. Now Nagelsmann only has an international break in March to find solutions before Germany hosts the European Championships next summer.

According to what Since the German team was eliminated in the group phase of the last two World Cups and will not reach the round of 16 of the European Championship until 2021, the pressure on Nagelsmann and his players is increasing to avoid another disastrous tournament in front of their own fans next summer.
