Jogi Löw: Now Bayern coach Nagelsmann is also destroying his EM system

With the knockout of the last 16 at the EM 2021, ex-national coach Jogi Löw did not meet expectations.

Now Julian Nagelsmann criticizes the game system of the DFB team.

Munich - The DFB team started the European Football Championship * with certain expectations.

It should at least be the semi-finals.

You have the player material for it.

So it was heard from the team - and was also formulated by Joachim Löw *.

The fact that the ex-national coach had switched the system to a three-man chain before the European Championship was not well received by all those involved in retrospect.

In the 3-4-3 the team didn't really feel comfortable, the processes weren't there, the compact defense that was hoped for was only partially available and only arose at the expense of the offensive power.

So Löw coached himself in the classic way? Shortly after leaving, Thomas Müller found critical words in the direction of the match plan (“de facto failed”). In addition, trainer legend Jupp Heynckes recently got upset about the Löw system at the European Championships, now the next trainer is doing it. “Personally, I'm not a big fan of the defensive structure that Germany had at the European Championships,” says Julian Nagelsmann * in an interview with

: “I don't really like the defensive structure in this basic order, because the processes for the sixth are not quite so are easy, not so easy for the chain behind it either. "

However, this is only his "coach's opinion, which does not claim to be one hundred percent correct," said the new Bayern coach.

This is not a fundamental criticism.

"Basically, I think the quality of the German players is so great that you can play any basic order with them," explains Nagelsmann: "At the end of the day, another team was better and had the happy moment."

The early departure was not due to the unfamiliar basic structure. It is "a German phenomenon that people talk about it so much, that is ultimately irrelevant," says the 33-year-old. Germany failed in the European Championship round of 16 with 0-2 to England. After 15 years as national coach, Joachim Löw had already announced his resignation before the European Championship tournament. From August onwards, a new era will begin in the DFB team, when Hansi Flick * will take over the post of national coach.
