Nagelsmann before National League challenge: new faces in the DFB team!
Julian Nagelsmann, the coach of the German national soccer team, welcomed a very changed squad to the upcoming Nation League games against Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Netherlands at noon in the DFB district in Herzogenaurach. The 37-year-old has been in office for a year now and faces a massive wave of injuries. However, this challenge is not new to him. Instead of complaining about the failures, he is looking for solutions. as www.radiomuelheim.de reported He that, despite the adversity, his goals remain unchanged: victories against Bosnia and the Netherlands to defend the lead.
The attack quartet that Nagelsmann originally planned is greatly decimated. With Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, and Niclas Füllkrug, three players have failed due to injuries, so that only Florian Wirtz is currently fit. Nagelsmann also had to make changes on the defensive; Goalkeeper Marc-André Ter Stegen fails due to a patella tendon tear and Robin Koch had to cancel at short notice due to hip problems. Nagelsmann decided to bring FC Brentford to the team instead of another defender Kevin Schade to strengthen the offensive.
new faces in the squad
These new constellations require Nagelsmann quick improvised solutions to fill the gap on the offensive. Instead of the injured regular players, he relies on fresh talents, including Tim Kleinsdienst by Borussia Mönchengladbach, Jamie Leweling from VfB Stuttgart and Jonathan Burkardt of Mainz 05. "It is a shame that we have to do without important players who should support us at home, but I look forward to getting to know the new faces in the team," said Nagelsmann.
Serge Gnabry, who is noticed by his experience and its goal quota of 22 goals in 45 international matches, could receive crucial minutes in the weakened offensive. Meanwhile, Nagelsmann is preparing to find the right line-up for the first game against Bosnia-Herzegovina, where a "heat atmosphere" should prevail. The Bilino Polje stadium holds around 14,000 spectators and will offer a challenging environment.
The goalkeeper fight
The goalkeeper position remains another interesting point of the discussion. After the failure of Ter Stegen, Oliver Baumann and Alexander Nübel fight for the chance to stand in the goal. Baumann, who was under pressure in the Bundesliga, feels ready and optimistic: "I'm really looking forward to being number one," he says. Nübel, on the other hand, still has hope of being used against the Netherlands and also speaks of anticipation of this challenge. The decision as to who ultimately takes the position between the post will be another exciting task for Nagelsmann.
The situation around the injured players and the associated changes offer Nagelsmann the opportunity to introduce unknown talents at an international level and at the same time to preserve the stability of the team. The upcoming games will be decisive, not only for the national national team, but also for Nagelsmann's ability to find and implement solutions in challenging times.
