Tbh the small population thing makes sense, but you’ve gotta wonder why some of the countries w the biggest population are ass at international football too, looking at India and China.

Ngl their squad is all good players, but they’re inconsistent. Kimmich, Havertz. Also looking at them they’re a squad that looks amazing on paper, fullbacks aside.
MATS
Raum, Rudiger, Sule, Henrichs
Gundogan Kimmich Wirtz
Gnabry Fullkrug Sane
And then they have enough players to change formations to whatever they want, Goretzka, Groß, Muller, Musiala, Havertz, Werner, Hummels, Brandt, Hoffman
Kimmich still is a world class player imo, he’s just trying to do too much
Vinicius out for Brazil, maybe Martinellis time to cement his place in the squad?
City already do this, Arsenal are almost there too. Arsenal play 3 defenders, 2 at defensive midfield, 2 10s, wingers, and a striker, but their system involves positional switching, where Zinchenko is a fb out of possession but in possession he plays dm.
Tbh I’m happy they’re playing the way they are, later on we’ll say they not just bottled the league but also the invincibles. Came third in a one horse race this time after us and citeh
Grizi is never mentioned in these, and that’s sad
