Germany seems to have a generation of players who are regenerated, and have faith in the philosophy of the national team. The fact that Jürgen Klinsmann took over as coach by his assistant Joachim Löw was a crucial aspect to continue with plans in place. So low is to be replaced, it will be interesting to see if a change of direction in the philosophy persists, or if the current way of doing things.
Germany's belief in the system comes with real confidence that can only come from their past successes. The Germans are known for their mental strength, with the ability to win close games and the triumph of sanctions. This success has a positive impact on young players coming up, though I do not take part in the success rather than take heart and believe in it. Young star midfielder Thomas Mueller has this to say at the recent World Cup when asked POLARIS thought I would win, "we are in Germany, we are a team of the tournament." To have such confidence go through the players is very positive.
The success that Germany can serve as an inspiration for countries seeking to improve, but coaches, fans and the media should realize what a reform process can be long term. Klinsmann faces formidable opposition clubs, media and fans for their different ideas. He stood firm against critics and executed his plan. Six years in the time available, but the nation is yet to win a World Cup. It will take patience, courage and conviction to see the plan for the ultimate triumph. For nations do not have the current level of success in Germany, it may take even longer to see tangible results.
