      Their moral was low because they were suffering from diseases due to the unseasonal cold wet weather, and lack of food due to them being constantly harassed by the pursuing French forces. And because of that, every French knight wanted to be there to finish them in a great victory, which was the reason for the extreme overcrowding on the battlefield which was a freshly ploughed field that was sodden from a downpour before the battle started.

      @peterwhitaker4038 The Romans wrote down lots of accounts about how tall and terrifying the Germans looked to them, and Rome only ever managed to conquer parts of Britain and Germany, despite the fact that Northern Europeans were shockingly primitive and unsophisticated at the time. I think their physical superiority played a big role in being able to mostly hold off the way more disciplined and organized Legions. Remember, The Byzantines eventually insisted on making Scandinavians into their own special forces unit after observing their size and physical power. Those special forces obviously didnt look quite as impressive to the other pale men in the North. Harold Hardrada got destroyed by the Anglo Saxons and William the Conqueror struggled alot with them soon after.

    The fourth crusade is consdiered the very worst because they attacked fellow christians, weakened the Byzantine Empire which acted as a buffer between the muslims and Christian Europe, and worst of all was all about greed and carried out with treachery. Even the Pope was disgusted and excommunicated everyone involved. As for Alexios IV, he was partly victim to court politics but when he invited the crusaders to Constantinople, he sealed both the city's and his own fate. He promised a ludicrous sum of gold to pay the crusaders to put him back on throne, which was all but lost to him due to his weak backing. The crusaders did get him back on throne but then he couldn't pay the huge debt he owed so he ordered everything of value in the city to be gathered up to pay the debt, which caused widespread outrage and discontent, more fighting ensued and Alexios ended up being strangled to death by his own people blaming him for all their problems.
