Munich: The German football team is reeling from consecutive defeats. Qatar are yet to recover from the shock of being knocked out in the group stage at the World Cup. Germany, which is preparing for next year’s Euro Cup, lost to Belgium, Poland and Colombia in friendlies last month. Now former German player Bastian Schweinsteiger is clarifying the reason for the collapse of German football. His argument is that Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola broke Germany.
Schweinsteier’s criticism is that the reforms made by Guardiola when he became the coach of Bayern Munich also influenced the German team and with this, Germany lost its unique style. When Guardiola implemented possessional football at Bayern, it affected Germany. Everyone followed Guardiola’s style. With this, Germany lost the natural game. Earlier, everyone praised Germany’s fighting spirit and attacking football. Other teams followed suit. Now the German players are competing to pass. Schweinsteiger also said that the reason for the collapse of German football is that he left his own style and went the way of Guardiola.
After leaving Barcelona in 2013, Guardiola became the coach of Bayern Munich. Under Guardiola, Bayern won three Bundesliga titles, two German Cups and one Club World Cup. Former captain Bastian Schweinsteiger is a player who has played under Guardiola during this period. Guardiola is currently the coach of Manchester City.
