Joachim Low Must Show Germany's VERSATILITY against Chile as they Prepare for the World Cup



It is approaching. It's getting ever closer. Low is coming near to fine-tuning the final squad for the World Cup. Later today, he takes on one of the best from South America and this will be a chance for BOTH teams to really test themselves in what should be a match of HIGH TECHNICAL quality. But for, YET AGAIN, World Cup favorites, this is a chance to experiment and show some versatility.





One of the reasons why I say Germany WON'T win the World Cup is because of Low. I do not believe he has the depth of tactical knowledge to REACT to a situation and make changes that can affect the game. When things go well, GREAT, when they don't go well which they WILL, that is where he fails.
  This match is an opportunity to show what they can do in a variety of ways. How they can attack in alternative routes, and PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD, CAN SCHURRLE JUST BE ANNOUNCED AS A FUCKING STRIKER AND STOP CONFUSING HIM WITH A MIDFIELDER?????!!!!
  That is what is needed. So screw the scoreline, this is a chance to try out different formations, and to have at least THREE strategies that Low can call upon and use when need be based on a particular scenario that Germany may find themselves in.

I was shocked by how Germany folded against Italy. An Italian side who were completely reborn and reshaped after the embarrassment of 2010. So when Germany were two down, I looked to Low and so did millions of Germans. He had to do SOMETHING. There needed to be a new way of attacking, a change in formation. Germany were too good and experienced to just not get themselves back in the game a lot earlier.
   Low has to learn from that game and have the balls that Mourinho has to actually try and change things a lot earlier in the game, and screw stars...IF A STAR IS NOT PLAYING WELL, HE GETS HIS ASS HAULED RIGHT OFF!

I never really know what to make or view of friendlies. If Germany get spanked or spank Chile...who cares? You just can never replicate that atmosphere of a World Cup Semi-Final in a friendly game. So all this is about Low having perhaps a whole new system that WORKS. Remember, the more strategies that a coach has at his disposal...THE MORE DEADLY AND THUGGED OUT HIS TEAM CAN BE WHICH HEIGHTENS THE LEVEL OF SUCCESS AT THAT WORLD CUP.
