Flick wasn’t the issue with this squad, I am not sure exactly what it is because I am no professional. But the football isn’t attractive.

Flicks flaw was he though he could run it the way he did bayern, but that group had been together for so long and so much chemistry. Everyone knew their role in the club, the leaders were defined, the football was well defined and you knew how bayern were going to play, and it was unstoppable.

What benefited Germany for so long was a seamless transition of players. It seemed as though as players got older and were on the decline, they were still present to reinforce culture and the were replaced by players who knew what was expected based on their predecessors. We never saw Boateng and Hummels pass the torch because they were excluded, and now the defending of Germany really has no identity.

Bet Leroy Sane can’t wait to get back to Bayern

He turned down Everton in hopes that he could end his career in Bayern. It’s not a lack of ability, it’s his on going court case.

But the point I am making is that those two are very consistent and predictable players, you know what they will bring. The rest of the crew is so inconsistent with the exception of Rudiger who is mostly on point.

Hansi Flick wasn’t the problem, but he definitely had too much trust in Kimmich and should have done more to keep Kroos.

My opinion keeping player like Hummels, Boateng, and Muller away from the team after 2018 really hurt the identity of the team. I actually think that the 35 Yr olds Hummels and Boateng would be a better pair than anything we have seen so far, obviously never going to happen. This group can still win the Euros but it will have to come from an entire overhall within german football. The question is can Nagelsmann be the one to orchestrate this change.
