It has been a pretty bad international break for Germany so far, with plenty of talking points surrounding Jürgen Klopp’s squad, player selection, performances, and the direction of the national team. The results have not necessarily matched the expectations surrounding a team with this much individual talent, which has made the upcoming games even more important.
But how much can two positive results change the way you view the entire break?
If Germany manages to win both of its next two games, would
that be enough to make you look back on this international window more positively? Results are obviously important, but there are other factors to consider as well. The performances, tactical adjustments, player development, and the emergence of younger players could all influence how supporters evaluate the break.
Youngsters such as Lennart Karl, Finn Jeltsch, Philipp Treu, Said El Mala, and Jonas Urbig are expected to get their chance to shine in the next two games. Two wins could also provide some much-needed momentum and potentially change the mood around the team heading into the next international window. At the same time, supporters may feel that the underlying issues exposed during this break would still need to be addressed regardless of the results.
So, where do you stand?
If Germany wins its next two games, will that change your opinion of this international break? Or has what you have seen already shaped your view of this window?
