Update from August 10, 12:58 p.m.:
After just under an hour, the first DFB press conference with Hansi Flick as national coach is over.
The mood of optimism and the desire for improvement after the disappointing EM kept sounding through.
Flick wants to nominate the best players in Germany.
Thus, Thomas Müller, Mats Hummels and Marco Reus are almost certain of a nomination, and Mario Götze and Jerome Boateng can also hope for a return to the national team.
Hermann Gerland's personality was surprising, but not entirely unexpected.
The former assistant coach from FC Bayern is supposed to follow Flick to the DFB and work as a scout.
Hansi Flick on ...
... a phone call with ex-national coach Jogi Löw:
“We talked for a long time.
There will certainly be another opportunity to exchange ideas over a meal or an espresso.
But now he deserves to take a deep breath. "
... the development at the EM:
“You could see that the intensity of Spain and Italy was inspiring.
They tried to put the opponent under pressure early on.
Big ball wins were a good means of success.
Set pieces are very important.
We can copy the best and bring it to our own.
Then we'll come back to where we want to be. "
... Müller, Hummels and Boateng:
“The best players are invited.
If they do what they can, they are part of this team again. "
... the young talent problem in Germany:
“I have already said it.
This is a joint task of clubs and the DFB.
We can just support and want to get involved.
I'd rather wait, suddenly a talent comes out again.
Musiala suddenly came up and nobody expected it.
But we want to exchange ideas with the clubs. "
... the new DFB academy:
“I'm eager to get involved here.
I hope that the green lawn will come here soon, that is the most important thing. "
... possible returnees like Reus and Götze:
“I said yes, that's the nice thing, you can nominate anyone.
I'm happy for Mario Götze that he scores goals in Eindhoven.
For me, Marco Reus is the best player in the last third.
He can play the last pass and also go deep.
He is one of the best in the position. "
... the way back to the top of the world:
“That is the goal, it will not be easy.
But we have enormous quality in the team.
It won't happen overnight, but we will do everything for it. "
... the greatest motivation:
“I can work with the best players in Germany.
You always want to be successful, that's the motivator to give everything.
We will do everything we can to play attractive, exciting and successful football.
Tickling these things out, that motivates me. "
... the biggest challenge:
“We don't have a lot of time.
We have to take the players with us from the start and reach them. "
... the youngsters:
“The best players should play, that's our focus.
But we also want to give the players the opportunity to take the next step. "
... the difference between national and club coaches:
“You can choose the players yourself.
The work doesn't change that much, you have less time to spend.
I want to shape the future for the DFB and present top players, but that is only possible in cooperation with the clubs. "
12.36 p.m .:
“I would like Hermann Gerland as a scout.
I've known him for a long time and he's one of the most honest people I know.
I think it is really good for the association, ”explains Flick about Hermann Gerland.
12.33 p.m .:
“It's a huge honor for me.
I have a German father and German grandparents.
I will give everything to repay the trust.
In standard situations there is still room for improvement if you work in a structured way and involve the players, ”explains Danish standard expert Mads Buttgereit.
12.30 p.m .:
“I have to thank Freiburg very much, the cooperation was very pleasant.
I can imagine that this can be really good.
We have a lot of good goalkeepers in Germany.
It's a big task for me to do the right things during my training, ”explains goalkeeping coach Andreas Kronenberg.
12.29 p.m .:
“Thank you everyone.
I am looking forward to continuing the path with Hansi.
The last two years have been very nice, we have built a relationship of trust, "says Röhl about Flick.
12.28 p.m .:
"Danny Röhl is very meticulous, he played a big part in our success in Munich.
I'm glad he followed me, ”says Flick about assistant coach Danny Röhl.
12.27 p.m .:
“I have known Hansi for a long time when he accompanied me as DFB sports director, we were also at the Olympics in Rio 2016. We walked a path together, humanly it worked.
I am confident that we will be able to continue working together trustingly in the future, ”says Marcus Sorg about Flick.
Hansi Flick on ...
... Co-trainer Marcus Sorg:
“I really appreciate him personally.
It was clear that I wanted him on my team. "
... the game system:
“Anyone who has followed FC Bayern over the past few years knows my direction.
We want to be active, take the initiative.
The European Championships showed that if you win the ball early, success is more likely.
For me it is important that the best players play for Germany.
But we also want to encourage young players.
We have to discuss this with the club coaches in order to find the best in Germany. "
... the expectations:
“If you are allowed to work with the best players in Germany, the expectations are high. We want to be successful again in the future. If you ignore the last three years under Jogi, we always reached the semi-finals and became world champions. He did an excellent job and I owe him a lot for always encouraging me. I would like to pass on this trust, I am an absolute team player. We need an all-in mentality, which means that we give everything to leave the field as a winner. My team and I will set an example, the players have to show that too. "
... his return to the DFB as national coach:
“My life has not turned out the way I imagined it to be back then.
I am happy and proud to be sitting here as a national coach.
Thank you for the trust.
I know a lot of people and employees here, all of whom I appreciate very much.
After the many wonderful successes with Bayern Munich it feels really good. "
12:16 p.m .:
“It feels great to be back at the DFB, that's where I celebrated my greatest successes.
I let everything come my way, especially since this role has never existed before.
I am totally curious and look forward to the task.
I can learn a lot from Hansi and Oli, ”says Benedikt Höwedes about his start as a team manager at the DFB.
12:14 p.m .:
“I wish him a good start.
We want to play successfully again.
Our aim is to win and inspire.
I wish him the necessary early luck, the rest will come soon, ”says Oliver Bierhoff.
12.12 p.m .:
“Flick should reach people again.
The German national team is the most important team and should spark enthusiasm and a spirit of optimism.
We want to maintain trust, but we also have to be credible.
We will have a lot of discussions with Hansi about this.
The association needs its honor back, which is why the national team is important.
We hope to be more successful again, but we have to win the people back, ”says Peter Peters.
Peters:
“We didn't want to sign a coach from an ongoing contract, we talked about it openly.
That is why FC Bayern thanked us.
We have also looked at other names before.
Flick is meticulous but can also step into conflict and change things.
Flick and Bayern then agreed to terminate the contract and the way was clear for us. "
Oliver Bierhoff (DFB Director):
“I am overjoyed that we were able to win Hansi over.
He was my absolute dream coach.
I know him from earlier days at the DFB and I know what's in him.
He should support us in the whole area.
We have also put together a great team.
We dined together yesterday, the atmosphere and the energy impressed me.
I was also able to win Benedikt Höwedes for the association.
He was our flagship national player, U21 European champion and world champion.
He is a person with a lot of character.
He should bring his experience to the table and be close to the team. He also receives an overview of management.
I am firmly convinced that we will have a good start in September. "
Peter Peters (Vice President of the DFB):
“It's impressive when you walk across the grounds here, it represents a spirit of optimism.
We need them too.
We are happy that we won Hansi Flick as national coach at the suggestion of Oliver Bierhoff.
Hopefully we all stand for the spirit of optimism that the DFB urgently needs. "

DFB-PK today in the live ticker: Flick introduces himself as national coach
First message
: Munich / Frankfurt am Main - an end is always the beginning of something new.
The philosophical aspect probably did not play a major role for Hansi Flick * when he decided a few months ago to quit FC Bayern * and to accept the offer from the DFB * to succeed Joachim Löw.
Since August 1st, the national coach of the German national soccer team has been called Hansi Flick and not Jogi Löw for 15 years.
What the former coach of FC Bayern, who has won almost all titles at club level in a good year and a half, now wants to change the DFB team after the disappointing European Championship in the second round, that remains to be seen.
DFB-PK today in the live ticker: How much Jogi is in you, Mr. Flick?
The only thing that is certain is that he will have a foreign special assistant at his side *.
What now sounds like 007 is just a standard expert who is supposed to fix the weaknesses in corners and free kicks in the DFB team.
Flick doesn't really have much time for experiments.
The World Cup qualification will continue in just three weeks.
There Joshua Kimmich and Co. are under a bit of pressure after the defeat against North Macedonia.
In general, the question of how Flick will put together his squad after Toni Kroos' resignation will be exciting.
Will Thomas Müller and Mats Hummels be part of it again?
What about Jérôme Boateng?
Or will Flick rely radically on the youth and increasingly incorporate Jamal Musiala or Florian Wirtz?
The new national coach will have to ask himself all of these questions on Tuesday when the DFB press conference takes place in Frankfurt.
In the live ticker you are well informed and never miss a statement.
