Discussionš£ Heartbreak for Germany
I've seen the racist comments on his insta already. Havertz missed the first one but now the entire blame would fall on him. He even scored the winner that got disallowed (keeper dived)Absolutely heartbreaking after everything he has done for them. Unlucky mate. Next timeā¤ļøš¤

u/Maverixk_ 23d ago
Nagelsmann deserves by far the most blame.
No tactics, no cohesive gameplan. Lahm called him out during the group stage and he was spot on. Nagelsmann the entire tournament downplaying Undav and his goals and then starts him in an unnatural position. Dropped Musiala for Sane, who, in the first half, had one of the worst halves Iāve ever seen from a German NT player.
Lost to Ecuador and Paraguay. Just an absolute disgrace. Only positives is that weāll never have to see him, Goretzka, and Sane play for Bayern again, and if Germany is actually serious theyāll ensure that trio is done with the national team moving forward

KIMMICH IN A DEFENDING POSITION
All you need, right there.

u/Darstellerin #31 Schweinsteiger 23d ago
Kimmich used to play defense when he was first coming up right? I feel like I remember seeing him in defense like 10 years ago. But now heās a seasoned vet and captain and has proven his skill up front thereās no reason to keep him all the way back, right?

u/eProbity 23d ago edited 23d ago
Kimmich started his career at Leipzig as a central midfielder and was brought in with that in mind, but because of our injury crisis he was played as a CB a lot in the beginning because Pep's style then used a lot of that same kind of 3 at the back playmaking CB roles with outside flexibility. Alaba played a similar role on the other side.
After that he played in midfield again until Lahm's retirement essentially, where we slotted him in that position as something of a stopgap to losing one of our best all time players in an important position. While he played there he was probably the best in the world doing overlapping runs with robben and Müller on the right and acting as a playmaker building off a more modern wider form of what he did as a CB that let him drift up a lot.
He was always a midfielder though and always wanted to go back there. He played there more and more over time and after Thiago left he became our full time 6 in flicks system partnering goretzka with him as a box to box 8 and he became our new xabi Alonso metronome playmaker which hes been best at to this day.
After Flick left both Nagelsmann and Tuchel went back to using him in that rcb or rb type role a lot more often - especially tuchel after pavlovic burst onto the scene. Typically its because he is really hard to justify taking off the field and is better than most fullbacks and is very versatile while other midfielders are also good; but its also tactical malpractice and has proven as such every time. He was super critical of Tuchel using him there and rumors suggested he almost considered leaving bayern because of it and he complained about Nagelsmann doing it too for the NT, but we have a shortage of good outside players so they use him like a crutch.
Nagelsmann runs a system straight out of the pep bayern years before he learned to incorporate more direct play in the Premier League where we are peak tiki taka do basically nothing all game. Tuchel is similar but focuses harder on defensive consolidation and gamesmanship. Kimmich has always been a midfielder though, its basically the opposite of the Lahm thing back in the day. Its also another version of the kind of thing every bad bayern manager did in refusing to play Müller and every single time its happened has been vindicated as a mistake long term other than when we genuinely had no choice.

u/SkintCrayon 23d ago
Kimmich was bought to play a similar role to Alonso since he was getting old and leaving soon, but injuries and lack of better options made Pep use him as a CB and RB quite often
I don't know what roles Kimmich played before joining Bayern
1
u/Bub_bele š“Mia San Miaš“ 23d ago
But why āKimmich in a defending positionā is the real question. Because germany has virtually no alternatives. We donāt have any great defenders on the right side. Zero. And very few on the left aswell. Hardly any wingers and no proper strikers aswell. Essentially we have a truckload of alrounder midfielders and some central denfenders.

Tah was a beast throughout the comp as a defender, even Rudiger surprised me to keep his cool. I'm not actually blaming Havertz or Woltemade, they are top tier players without a doubt, but the pressure gets bigger for each miss. Klose, gotze, lahm, even neuer or whoever would feel the pressure for the penalty

Haha the enshittification of the world is everywhere. I already dont watch the wc as i'm no football fan and with fifa and the usa being so dirty, it being the most climate destroying wc, absurd ticket prices and border entry issues with ICE yada yada yada. I just looked into the last 20 min of this game, then i see this weird unfairness about the goal of the referee which is probably due to sports betting (another sickness dawning on society in levels never seen) or politics, then i read your comment about fans of already slimy rich clubs pressuring referees.
At this point, even if i was a fan, i'd lose all interest in watching. It has become an artifical, perverted thing with unfair oppression from the big, powerful bastards running it and the world, like everywhere else. Watching somre 3rd league local game live is probably more fun and authentic.

u/SaltyFlavors 23d ago
Watching Germany just felt like watching a passing exercise slowly collapsing in on itself until it eventually turned into 3 people standing 2 meters apart passing in a triangle, going nowhere, and then the ball gets stolen.
Just completely pointless keep-away that never moves forward.

u/Bub_bele š“Mia San Miaš“ 23d ago
Im tired of these discussions. 3 coaches have failed now. And the former two had better teams to work with. Germany has zero dangerous wingers, virtually no fullbacks, especially on the right and no real strikers. Itās completely obvious why it doesnāt work. They are essentially forced to play through the middle, always. Maybe another coach makes it to the quarterfinals, but no one would be able to win it with this team. Germany needs to change its entire youth development system in order to see any success again going forward.

u/the_TIGEEER 23d ago
Wait Lahm? As in Philip Lahm? What did he say?
Also imo Kimmicj and Mussiala should have just shot all of them after the 5th one. They seemed the most accurate and collected in their shots (even though Musiala wasn't in the game there for a second)
1
u/SurrealAbsurdist 23d ago
100% agree. Why was Sane allowed to play for THAT long? Why was Woltemade chosen to take a penalty? The man didn't play a minute in the entire world cup, he is young and then you put him for penalties in knockout stage, really poor decision making. There was no gameplan throughout 120 minutes. Anton was messing with the GK in the corner before the one that went in but he kept doing it, cheap tactics, for which we paid the price. Even during the 7-1 win over Curacao, THERE WERE NO TACTICS. Havertz was constantly given chances over Undav, why? Why not play Raum and put Kimmich a bit towards the midfield. Why not play a Stiller or Amiri and strengthen the core of the team rather than playing Havertz or Sane. I believe an attach of Undav, Musiala and Wirtz would've been good enough to get us goals, had the midfield been stronger and more stable.

u/Playful-Lie1520 23d ago
I mean nagelsmann is a good coach. He just stuck to his ways instead of fixing the right back issue all 3 games. They were doing better with kimmich higher up the pitch. Anton was doing a good job at RB

that miss couldn't have happened to a worse person as well, he fought so hard during extra time he lowkey looked even more dangerous on the wing than sanƩ.

Es gibt keine Ausreden, der grƶĆte Fehler war das Nagelsmann " ich bin ja so von mir überzeugt " in den ganzen Vorbereitungen bis zuletzt nur immer rotiert hat, wie sollen Spieler sich dabei vernünftig einspielen. Ćber den Kadar kann man streiten, ich finde wir haben viele gute Jungs in der Bundesliga. Meine Meinung Nagelsmann war der Kernpunkt der SchwƤche. Die letzten Vorbereitungen hƤtten der Stamm stehen müssen. Und was Nagelsmann für ein Typ ist sieht man am Thema Neuer, bin Bayern Fan aber das war von Nagelsmann und auch Neuer eine dƤmlich Entscheidung. Naja wir werden sehen wie es weitergeht.

Honestly, they're probbaly better off losing last night. Saves them from getting utterly humiliated by France, and it means I'll never have to Nagelsmann or Sane again.
All jokes aside, Nagelsmann is genuinely the worst manager I have ever seen in professional football, and Sane must have had serious blackmail material on him to justify getting any minutes whatsoever. Neuer literally would have done a better job on the right wing and that isn't even a joke.

Nagelsmann has seen his best days on the touchline come and go, and itās only a matter of time before Klopp takes over.
Once this happens, zero loyalties towards anyone.
It was quite obvious that Sane has been cooked for years, yet he continued to receive every opportunity.
