We are certainly not the favorites for the world title. 0-1 against Hungary, conceded at least one goal in the last seven games, unpleasant group with Spain and Japan, difficult round of 16 against Belgium or Croatia if they progress.
But…
…in Flick we have a national coach who has proven at FC Bayern that he can achieve maximum success in the shortest possible time (six titles). This is particularly valuable for this tournament, where the teams only have one week to prepare instead of the usual three or four.
…with Musiala we have the best 19-year-old in the world. Its unpredictability gives Germany a new quality. Regular place guarantee!
…we have the advantage that the World Cup structure can play in at FC Bayern: Neuer, Kimmich, Goretzka, Müller, Musiala, Sané, Gnabry. Nagelsmann will become the secret national coach in the next few weeks. Flick should keep in close contact.
It’s clear: A tournament is never about developing players, but about bringing in the best German team for the greatest possible success. A possible return campaign for world champions Kroos and Hummels shouldn’t be taboo if they were to be a reinforcement in November due to their form.
