When Hansi Flick 2014 left the national team, cheered Football Germany, yes the entire nation the greatest possible success in this sport. The DFB selection had become world champion in Brazil. The assistant Flick had helped with the side of the Chef coach Joachim Löw significantly to win this triumph. Seven years later, the former assistant takes on this Sunday, August 1, 2021, even this lead role, he becomes the eleventh national coach in DFB history. His employment was temporarily limited to three years, until the home European Championship 2024.
Since the big victory in the final of Rio de Janeiro on July 13, 2014, it was continuously downhill for the German national team, only flat, then steep. At the European Championship 2016 in France, there was still a semi-final, where also actively involved in the continental title would have been possible. The 2018 World Cup brought the blamable from the three group games instead of the target defense; And in the recently organized Paneuropean European Correction of the correction of the World Cup bankrupt, the again early in the second round, although the staff had promised more very much. The number one in the world, when the German team was allowed to worship the twelfth place of the world ranking, and at best in the second row of global football.
A disparate, questionable association
To Flick's start of service, the German elite represents a disparate, questionable unification. It is unclear for which football she was at the end of the era Löw. The lively game, which begun under that Trainer 2010 in South Africa and reached its glorious climax in 2014, entail in 2018 in complacency and disciplinaryness to increase in anxiety and orientation at 2021. The once fleet pass game Zam for the end of the inefficient ball movement, the offensive lacked the consequence and class. The 2014 so acclaimed national team, from the DFB Director Oliver Bierhoff to Never accepted by the public, now reduced and rejected marketing slogan "the team" shortened, lost enormous attractiveness. She has to do a lot and invest in order to comment on this loss of interest and image, which you and your representatives have caused themselves.
Flick knows where he has to start. The new national coach, an alternative, luck character, must and will improve the atmosphere, inside as outward. He will give trust that pretend and present together, within his selection, but also throughout the league. Flick, as a club coach in Munich highly valued by the colleagues in the other clubs, will be a very present national coach and involve the clubs to create a climate of the overall responsibility. The embarrassment that the German football tented in the Olympic Games should be an additional startup. With a new we feel like Flicks Plan, all introduction to the benefit of German football.
This em has once again revealed all weaknesses dramatically
There are many construction sites to edit. Already in 2015, at that time as a temporary DFB sports director in June to the national coach, named flick the problem areas: individuality prior to the common exaggerated collective doctrine, dribblings, one-counter-one situations. Since then, little to nothing has improved. In German football, it still lacks - as mentioned by Flick at that time - on external distinthers and a typical center-to-center, now also on internal defenders of the international top class. The EM has spilled all these weaknesses dramatically again.
Flick knows these deficits. He will first strengthen the psyche of his players so they optimally use their qualities. This football teacher will preach and practice offensive football, as he made it at FC Bayern Munich, with fast passport, with pressing everywhere. The high-speed storm Leroy Sané, Serge Gnabry and Timo Werner will need to use their qualities in the goal of gate than at the EM; Defender Niklas Süle will be challenged and justifying the loan on advance. New people will be tested, especially in the attack center, the U-21 European Champion Karim Adeyemi (19 / Salzburg), Lukas Nmecha (22 / Wolfsburg) or Ragnar Ache (23, Frankfurt) are candidates.
Heights and depths: Stations of the 15-year-old era lion
What is completely exposed from the Julian Brandt (25 / Dortmund), Julian Draxler (27 / Paris Saint Germain) or Thilo Kehrer (24 / Paris)? Return Marco Reus (32 / Dortmund)? Are the Mats Hummels (32 / Dortmund) and Thomas Müller (31 / Bavaria) and Thomas Müller (31 / Bavaria) and Thomas Müller (31 / Bavaria) are still part of the EM -
Not the age decides
Flick will proceed as in Munich, so the answer does not fall so hard: performance decides on nomination and playing time, not the age. Jerome Boateng (32) had replaced with FC Bayern, for example, Slee (25). And if two applicants be equivalent, the younger candidate will be given preference.
Because the interrupted change must be continued, but always with a clear look at the current success. Flick knows that he too is under pressure. The expectations are huge - at the World Cup 2022 in Qatar, for which the DFB selection currently recorded in place 3 of the J Season should qualify itself as a group winner, as with the domestic EM 2024.
Great order with great anticipation
Flick is now the hope, earning and preserving credit. But he also has to deliver, and fast, because the World Cup starts in just under one and a half years. The new national coach goes on this major order with great anticipation, he was active after the EM-out in the background. With his personal elans and commitment as well as its integrating style he wants to master this difficult task. Fresh, bold, forward-looking, most attractive and exciting football should be created. And ultimately, of course, a successful one.
