HOW Germany lost its football identity
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 тра 2024
- Germany are struggling like never before, and their winning football identity is nowhere to be found. How did one of the strongest teams in world football suffer a significant fall from grace? Coach Jogi Löw, who lifted the 2014 World Cup, seems to have overstayed his welcome, but will have one final shot at glory in the coming Euros. What happened to Germany, and can they right the ship in time for the Euros?

Germany's great decades come every 20 years: 1950s, 1970s, 1990s, 2010s. We just have to wait a few years.
Alright, maybe we'll take 10 years off and get back to it!
You can't really put them in these decades... Here's why: 1954 was a one time event back then... (1958 Semi Final, 1962 Quarter Final)... 1970s I agree, but only until 1976
And from 1980 to 1996 (European Cup Winner 1980 and 1996, Final 1992; and World Cup Win 1990, Final 1982 and 1986), they just didn't get into the Final with Group Stage in 1984, with Semi-Final 1988 and Quarterfinal 1994... Also after 1996 until 2006 Germany were just bad (Exeption 2002 WC Final)...
Better would be 1966-1976, 1980-1996, 2006-2017(Confed Cup Win)
@5 years ago Germany finished second in the 2002 world cup though so I'd say the only bad teams this century are the ones from 2000, 2004 and 2018
@5 years ago 1986 was one of the worst German Teams
Waiting another decade bro? 🤤😟😢😭

Literally here after Germany lost to England and the only thought in my mind when Muller missed that goal was like- this is NOT Germany I know! Think they exchanged their souls with the Swiss- who literally played like Germans, fighting till the last min, clinical passing and iron willed Penalties!
The swiss played incredibly good, better than France, they really deserved the victory.

Is he not just a Joachim Low lite?

Yeah I mean this sounds just like my Dutch side to me. Germany, like us, had to renew and start over almost from scratch since an entire generation all left at once. After losing players like Robben, Sneijder and Van Persie, you don't just instantly replace them, that takes time.
Damn right. Silly headline to get the clicks. Germany are a massive side with new players and a great future. They were off the boil last night and played unfairly ( imho) against a hostile crowd at their home stadium. How did that happen?
@Marcel Golsteijn I mean, Germany are U21 Euro Champuons. Future looking bright for them.
@@davis7099 Tbh the current german squad compared nowhere in talent to what they had half a decade ago. Imagine going from prime Muller, Ozil, Kroos, Klose, Neuer and Lahm to damned Rudiger, Hummels, Werner, Havertz and old Kroos, Muller. There is this vast gulf of quality that just can't be easily bridged.
@@davis7099 they are not as powerful as they once were. not even making the Euro 2020 quarters and squeezing out of their group in second to a lousy France side and losing to North Macedonia earlier in the year was a big dip. They're still a major team, no doubt.
I can't think of a key Dutch player at any top team other than Virgil van Dijk (who was injured most of last season). The Dutch team were strongest when their members were all top string pullers at their clubs, like the men you mentioned. The best Oranje team were all aces and legends at club level, now most of team need to be googled by most fans, which is kind of sad.
The parallel in Belgium's current crop of the Hazards, Lukaku, Kevin de Bruyne etc is telling. Even having said that, the Belgians are also struggling to replace that greatness as well. I mean they had de Bruyne at Manchester City playing alongside Thomas Vermaelen at Vissel Kobe. The slip is coming
as a German seeing this after we got kicked out again in the group stage of a world Cup hurts. I want 2014 again :(

This video won't age well when Hansi Flick takes charge and brings Muller back (after he has 45 assists in his last two seasons).
Edit:Yeah I know Germany was knocked out in group stage of world cup. Flick plays high line and don't have wing backs for that. The last coach left after losing euros less than one year back, and Flick got his chance very late. Should have been a coach from 2018 world cup humiliation. I still believe he will bounce back.
He never retired from Germany, he was kicked out.

That is a clichée. There were quite a few German teams who performed poorly in tournaments. In '78, 2018 to name two teams that were just awful.

After Germany lost 2 : 0 to England's Three Lions last night in Wembley, this video was indeed prophetic and Löw has indeed gone out with a whimper, not a bang ! Müller failed to score a 100% chance at scoring, and Hummels, Rüdiger and Ginter - the defenders - have been made the scapegoats for the debacle, as always. But if you ask me, Manuel Neuer in goal had a lousy Euro, letting in more goals than he saved in the four matches Germany played.
In a lot of cases there wasnt much he could do
i dont know where you are living, but there are literally no scapegoats. probably 90% of all germans know that this failing was Löws fault, especially (for this match) substituting way too late. The main coaching problem of this tournament was to suddenly introduce a new system to a team that still seemed confused by playing it (since they just didnt play it before at all). For single players, you can only give a few real bad ones this tournament, mainly being Gündogan and Sane, but still they arent to blame for this.
Well there was also the overwhelming support the english team got from its fans. It wouldve been a bit more balanced if they did play on a more neutral ground.
@@clark4813 even though i usually enjoy fan support i was really annoyed by the english fans literally booing every single pass played by germans

Fast forward to 2022 and Germany is more concerned about a armband than their national identity. Lol
Nope, but most Germans are more concerned about human rights abuses than being successful in a World Cup.
@@dwkickoff Nope. I think this is just another one of those western virtue signaling shows.

The lack of LGBT rights is part of a bigger cultural picture of very strict laws against what is seen as sexual licentiousness. Sex outside marriage is illegal for both same sex and opposite sex couples, pregnancy outside marriage and adultery are crimes punishable by imprisonment. Living together outside of marriage is also illegal.
Rape and sexual assault victims are treated as criminals and can be imprisoned for seven years and get 100 lashes. FIFA’s security committee’s document actually tells the Qataris to not treat victims of sexual assault as criminals. Qatar has also said that one night stands/flings/ hookups between supporters and visitors to the WC will be subject to the same laws.
What I’m saying that the rules on LGBT+ people are part of a much more sexually conservative (if not repressive) society. None of this happens in a vacuum, but is being treated as such.

I remember 10 years ago, I watched literally every game of my national team, even against opponents like San Marino and I really celebrated every goal. But since 2014, I really had enough of the hype. It got boring since the world title. I only watch the games at the big tournaments. No one wants to see Nations League games or else.

@@jackmellor5536 not true to be honest, we never won the Gold medal at the Olympic Games
@@dwkickoff What lost me was not just the bad play, but also the arrogance. When I saw the slogan "The best never rest" for the last world cup I just lost it...
I like a lot of the players on the pitch, but the only one where I really feel like he cares his Kimmich and maybe Neuer (but he seems to get used to the defence being full of holes so he can't do to much)... I really think the team is missing someone like Müller who gives them personality and someone to pull them up again. Just look at how he talked to Choupo-Moting against PSG, that's the football we want.
@@dwkickoff it’s a common thing rn in Germany. There’s low interest in our team. Löw is only nominating the usually ones since 5 years and just reacts way to slow. I think actually the commercialisation of the DFB did have the biggest impact on us fans
You have one of the best national team in this world, you should be proud because you are always in the top 10, my national team is Guatemala and the games make you want to go to sleep
How fitting that I found this right after Germany lost to England a couple of hours ago.
What an absolute shameful, pathetic display from the Germans. Not just against England but the group stages as well. You expect to win a cup from an own goal loss to France and struggling to tie with HUNGARY? Oh but we battered Portugal. And there lied the problem with this team inconsistency. And until Germany can find the consistency again, they're gonna keep falling down the rabbit hole as they've been since 2018.
aBsOlutE shAmEful, paTHetic DisPlaY
i mainly agree with you, but the statement has 2 problems: you cant compare this to 2018, its a big improvement over back then. This isnt meant as an excuse, but a lot of people forget how bad germany actually was in 2018. The other one is thinking with big names, pointing out that Hungary is weak. Hungary was a better opponent against Germany than France was, and probably even England as well. They played an insanely good tournament. id rather blame th3e inconsistency more on the france game than the hungary one.
no one here expected to win the Euros, we didnt even expect to come out of the groupstage lol...
and, about Hungary, they are not that weak, as England probably knows by now

No team can be at the top and winning all the time. Football is all about cycles. All teams, whether a club side or a national side, have up and down cycles. Winning and losing cycles. Germany are on a down cycle at the moment. They’ll be back though. They produce too many top quality players not to.

Let's be honest, the 2014 team won't ever be reached again. It was a mixture of unique and different characters that all (and yes, really all!) created an unbelievable harmony. This perfectly matching diversity was the key factor to their success!
The Bundesliga is full of foreigners
@@mariobasler3221 so is every leauge in europe.
and now you have a team full of Prima Donnas who are only offensive oriented and don't wand their shirts dirty :)

That a team won´t ever be reached again is a phrase that I have heard so many times. They also say it about the german teams at Euro 1972, at World Cup 1990 and now at World Cup 2014. In the 70s you could hear that nobody ever will be better than Pele, then they said it about Maradona, then they said it about Messi. There will always be ab better team and there will always be a better player. It always depends what you´re focussed at.
well, this 2022 WC confirmed everything in this video
Its dissappointing to see that Jogi Löw didn‘t had the courage to go after 2018... and by that not giving the team a chance to create a new hype around them
Great video!!! You hit the nail on the head when it comes to team identity. National teams never wanted to play against Germany back in the 2000s, 2010s, etc. Nowadays, things are different. Germany have the talent to become a powerhouse in the World, just need to regain their identity in which made them the greatest national side. I'm from Uruguay and we had this issue (lack of team identity) in the 1990s and 2000s where we only qualified for one World Cup.
Uruguay had Recoba back then, i feel that they should at least make pass the group stage in every World Cup - I'm surprised to learn they didn't make it in 2006 and 1998 despite the talent they have. Anyway i as a fan always fascinated how 3 millions population could compete with bigger nations. Uruguay have my respect.
@Worldvoyager 2005 Can you explain to me how social and political issues have anything to do with the downfall of German football? And how has Covid had an effect on this? I am genuinely interested to hear this.
Uruguay is due for a big title.

National teams change over time and become more or less successful. Would be boring if that didn't happen.
3 videos in one week. Now, that's delightful to watch!
Nice video. Every nation goes through phases of transition after great success and what is happening with Germany's football is no exception. In the late nineties also they suffered humiliating defeats and their rebuilding efforts started paying off from 2002 world cup on to 2006 , 2010 and finally 2014. Germany will bounce back no doubt. But what is puzzling is why rebuilding efforts have to result in dropping a class player like Thomas Mueller an eternally hungry player for goals ? I believe he has been brought back now which is a good thing to happen. Youth and experience is always a good combination

Never heard „Die Mannschaft“ before 2014... thats the big marketing gag
Amazing video.
I used to watch every international and club match on saturday when i was a kid and teenager but the game has changed so much and I simply lost interest in the game. The 2018 WC was the pinnacle of modern football. Penalties and dives deciding almost every important game and the national leagues aren't much different. I still enjoy playing football with my childhood friends but watching it...
Unfortunately, not many German fans showed up to support their team because the German fans were exposed to a campaign of disinformation by German associated media about the reality on the ground in Qatar. A team without fans is a team without spirit.
A lot of surprises in FWC in Qatar 2022 , best World Cup ever.
Özil left the team, not because of racism in the team. There was racism in Germany against him too but the main story was that he earned a shitstorm on social media, in the team, and Germany in general for meeting with Erdogan. Erdogan isn't just a voted president, he's a racist and nationalistic fascist who changed the political system from Turkey to an autocracy. He also abuses almost every means to suppress Kurds, push his radical-muslimic ideology and suppress every adherent of moderate interpretations of Islam as well as get control over the Arabian room.
Who’s here after the 2022 world cup :’(
Who's here after Eng beat Ger in the R16 at euro2020
Really a misleading translation of Schweinsteigers interview at 16:24. He said as much as "The only thing that counts is the results and the outcome of the Euros." That was far from saying Germany is a hot candidate of winning the Euros. More likely the focus should lay on positive aspects and if possible positive results aswell.
Absolut.
They know how to find whats lost and start a wild fire.we gonna take eur2020 and world cup 2022.i am gonna come back then!!!
When you go from Podolski and Klose to Timo Werner you know something has gone wrong......
Free falling 😢
Germany had the last bottom drop in the Euro Cups 2000 and 2004. Early 2000s they started building up young talents which came to fruition in the 2010s. German clubs were competitive internationally and so was the national team. Following this success, the new young talents just haven’t been on the same level. You can see this because German clubs are no longer in international semi/ finals like they used to be and the stars of the late 2000s/early 2010s are getting old.
It is a talent problem.
This is crazy talk. Germany will bounce back. I’m Italian, we went through a dark decade. Didn’t qualify for the World Cup. Serie a team hasn’t won the champions league in 10 years. Now Italy bounced back
gotta agree with the brothers: watching the game on Saturday was a thing and whenever Germany played, it was a serious event
Damn, if seeing the future was a YT video.
that's bad timing for this video. You remember Hansi Flick? The coach who destroyed Barcelona 8:2 with Bayern Munich? he is going to be our national coach in the future
If you remove the 1996 Euro Championship and the 2002 World Cup Final, you will see that Germany had a horrible run of form in International Tournaments from 1994 to 2004. This is a cycle and unfortunately, they are about to enter a rough patch again.
Who is here after Germany is out of RO16?
we are missing world class players on crucial positions and have more talent than we can play in 2 Euros on some other positions. My Father always said we need a strong Goalkeeper, a strong Leader centre Back and a strong Striker who decides the Matches. Except Goalkeeper those are exactly the Positions we are missing right now.
Instead we have Kroos, Gündegan, Kimmich, Havertz and Goretzka who all want to play the same Position more or less and an incountable amount of offensive wings.
You could even add Brandt and Draxler to that list despite both being capable in the wings as well.
I think the goalie's good but you're right about the imbalance in some positions.
Youssoufa Muokoko is coming to take that number 9 role for sure
He’s arrest for abusing his girlfriend he locked her in his basement 😂 mounoko is overrated
@@louis-olivierst-pierre5591 does his footballing ability have anything to do with his actions with his girlfriend??? They don't fucking correlate! Ffs he isn't shit at football. Separate the on pitch vs off pitch actions you wimp

All teams have to go through a re-birth. It may take a few years and a lot of changes but it is this learning and introspective curve which produces a better and a stronger team of tomorrow.
This Germany side are young and are slowly finding their feet. In a few years time they will look the force they once were
It all started with "Die Mannschaft".
Now shut up,sit back and watch Germany thrash every other team
To be fair, for the last ~20 years there has been something like a curse for World Cup title defenders.
The only team being able to do well as the title defender at the world cup seems to be Brazil (win in 1994 and runners-up in 1998). Any other team previous winner dropped out during the group stage 4 years later:
France won 1998 and dropped out 2002 without scoring a single goal.
Brazil won 2002 and dropped out during the quarter-finals in 2006 (the best result of any title defender since 1998).
Italy won in 2006 and dropped out in 2010 last of their group with only 2 points.
Spain won in 2010 and dropped out in 2014 third of their group with only one win.
And finally Germany won in 2014 and dropped out in 2018 again last of their group with only one win.
So for me that means that any winner really needs to restructure the team, even if it seems to be counter intuitive because just moving on and trying to defend the title with essentially the same team hardly ever seems to work at all.
Interesting point! Are critics of Germany and Löw just making a big fuss out of a natural development?
I think Germany losing their identity (in more ways than one) does indeed seem like a plausible reason
We will be there

WOW. It was really unexpected to see some footage of my own soccer club in this video. Those shots were filmed at FV Wannsee wich also serves as a DFB-Outpost. Its the first time in month I have seen it because of Corona. Thanks :)
Joachim low "balls sniffing" tactical is already known by the opponent 😆
😂😂😂
Classic case of "Looking at the past through rose-tinted glasses". Remember the great past in the 90s and 00s when Germany didn't make the Euro group stages twice and got kicked out of the world cup by Bulgaria in the quarter finals?
Stick with a great core team? Germany lost against Bulgaria with essentially the same squad that won the 90s World Cup. And didn't play well before or after '94.
@1:50 Am I hearing Aphex Twin in the background?
Yup. It’s me
Yes, the track entitled Flim.
WE DO NOT NEED A CLASSIC 9 WE FCKIN HAVE VOLLAND WTF HES SO GOOD
Wir brauchen eine Rekonstruktion der Jugendarbeit ! sollten uns an den Stützpunkten in Frankreich und Vorallem um Paris herum ein Vorbild nehmen
@5 years ago trueeeeee, but Löw hates Volland🤬😪
You can have a front 2 with Werner and Volland then Havertz or Muller behind them. If you ask me that’s a pretty solid front 3. And both Werner and Volland could be replaced with anyone from Havertz, Muller, Gnabry and Sane. And the dm can be Kimmich with Kroos/Gundogan/Goretzka/Neuhaus as the central midfielders. Admittedly there’s no width in a 4-1-2-1-2. Otherwise they’ll play 3 at the back with wingbacks (3-4-1-2) which could still work but I have no idea who could be the 2 WBs, if you really want to fit Gnabry/Sane on the outside one of them could play Wingbacks.
Finally someone who can understand how underrated the man is!
Volland might be the only decent number 9 but he's no match to what other countries have on that position. I don't think Germany need Volland. Instead, they should should work on their hierarchy in the team and build a solid defense. Gnabry, Gündogan, Goretzka, Sane are able to score goals. Werner as well, if he loses that weak form he's been in for a while. One word about Werner: He hasn't shown what he's capable of for Germany since 2017. I guess this has to do with what his position and tactical role are in Germany's team. I hope he can be used as a winger in a way that gives him what he needs. He is wasted on #9 position
The funny thing is back in 2002 we had an individually mediocre team but did great, now we have an individually world class team in theory but having no impact
Oliver Kahn was world class and single handedly brought us to the finals!
@@TheSwedishRider you know the Word ‚Team‘ ? 😂
Sometimes world class is nothing when it comes to national team
anyone here after the 4-2 victory against PORTUGAL?
Fuck yeah! 🇩🇪
The song at 4:02 is called John Cooper Clarke by working men’s club, I know nobody asked I’m just proud that a local band is getting their music recognised

"Die Mannschaft" is probably the most cringe nickname ever. Pure cringe as a German.
Danke
Why should being an german be cringe? Seems pretty intolarent to me !
It's more politically correct than Sturm Staffel.
@@marcelzielonka1234 at which point did I say being German is cringe? What the hell are you talking about. I said the term "die Mannschaft" is cringe, and this is something you can only understand as a German.
@@Lucarinho Than i missunderstood your intention , i've read this different. Thought u mean the word and german is cringe , not that its the word is cringe when u being a german guy. So u wrote ;; Pure cringe as a german'' , thought its against german people. So everything fine , just missinterpretion i guess :)
The reason why national teams rise and then they fall because they are less co ordinated then clubs. With Italy, Argentina and England they are well co ordinated sides. The way England was at the Euro was unreal. They have conceded a goal until they've met Denmark and Italy. Until they lost against Italy in the penalty shootout in the final which was devestating. But I believe they will win the World Cup next year.

As a Croatian I always support Germany on big turnaments! I think you just need a new coach with more spirit... Viel Glück!🇭🇷🇩🇪

And now England kicked us out of EM 2020...
If Germany got out in Group Stage twice at World Cups, then Italy (the other four-time winner of the World Cup from Europe) didn't even make it to the tournament twice in a row. It seems every time someone wins the World Cup, it takes them at least 20-24 years (or 36 years for Argentina, an infinite time for England) to produce another World Cup winning team. I have little doubt Germany is fine. It's still the largest country by population in Europe (not counting Russia) and it will produce many great teams ahead.
gonna be tough for germany. id say at the moment spain, portugal, belgium, england, and france are better at the moment, but then again, it's the germans.
No belgium is not
Not Portugal
@@samykiani944 lol just google their squad and then come
@@adwaitkale315 Sorry but I don't give a damn shit on squads.
It's most often just a guessing game. I'd NEVER rule out the Italians for example. The Greece example doesn't work perfectly this time, but who knows... North Macedonia sounds interesting.
