“If I quickly run out of pro arguments when I think of Nagelsmann and the national coaching position, this list is much longer for van Gaal,” Badstuber clearly underlined his opinion of Nagelsmann on the DFB bench. “For me, experience is the be-all and end-all – especially at a big tournament.”
The former Bayern professional also makes clear demands on Nagelsmann with regard to the home European Championship in 2024: “There is no room for naivety or experiments, then the tournament will be over quicker than it started.”
“Here more experience would have been worth its weight in gold – or black-red-gold.”
Ultimately, according to the 34-year-old, what matters for the German national team is fundamental principles after the downturn of the last few years. “The ‘elite of German football’ – I used the quotation marks deliberately – does not need spectacular innovations or tactical tricks, but rather the basics, the basic virtues that made Germany strong at major tournaments in 2016. Tireless commitment, duels, will to win, unity , Discipline: These values must quickly get into everyone’s head.”
