Preparation
Disregarding hotels for posh, camaraderie affirming barracks is another well know manoeuvre DFB-Elf employ. In 2014 Low based the squad in carefully selected modernised huts.
Eating regulations are extremely revealing of the settled and regulatory nature of the squad. The team “stick to German times for meals and sleep so as not to disrupt their body clocks.” This seems almost obvious yet altogether ingenious. Organisation is key: if something needs doing today, the Germans did it yesterday.
Relaxed environments with optional seclusion, catering for all aspects of personalities. These temperaments receive nurturing as a group from a young age. Youth is always given the chance to shine, as previously stated.
Much like the BMW, Audi, Porsche or Mercedes design or factory, there is clichéd meticulous attention to detail and structure.
Practising penalties is possibly a rather obvious illustration, yet here goes. Never losing a shootout at the World Cup finals reflects the ultimately focused state of mind. Always prepped correctly and devastatingly unfathomable to teams like the Three Lions.
Mexico, Sweden and South Korea make up Germany’s group at Russia 2018. With the tournament fast approaching, will they win again?
This was an Englishman’s assessment on German national football. Some may find my analysis difficult, as it was so gratifying. It is a candid evaluation, with which I’m sure Deutschland would agree. Unless they worry we have discovered their wunderbar formula!
