4-1 England, 4-0 Argentina, then losing to the greatest Spanish side ever.
What if Germany loses to Brazil in the semi's? Imo anything other than a place in the finals is a failure for Löw. Netherlands should be Germany's only worry (on paper) even then, Germany's squad is easily superior.
There were far better teams with what you would certainly name far better coaches that did not even make it past group stage, mate. Spain included. Italy could be a close second.
Germoney atm stands undefeated. We all know kroos, schweini and ozil were out of form pre-wc and still arguably are. We know khedira was injured. That`s full midfield. We know schmelzer injured. We know. We know howedes is a baddie. Still, with him on pitch germoney did not lose.
To argue "i would not have picked x to play as y" is simply stupid because when choosing a line-up, how the player performed in training sessions matters a whole lot.
