Why is the German team not as sharp as before?

Judging from the competition style, the German team has a feeling of "weak front" in recent years. In order to win, it depends more on the control of the center and the backcourt, and it is precisely the strong control of the German midfield that can effectively reduce the pressure on the German defense.

It's not that the front line is weak, but that the strong center and backcourt solve most of the games and seem weak. Klose and Gomez were not first-class strikers in previous years, but they were not weak. The so-called weak front line can only be said to be a center with little traditional significance, while the German winger can be said to be very strong in recent years.

Another reason is that the requirements of modern football for strikers have changed. The striker's task is no longer simply to score goals, to complete the best blow, but more to participate and support, which is often inadequate in front of the world's top midfielders.

The style of German football has always been centered on the center. Gadmuller, Klinsmann, bierhoff, Ian Kerr, kells Teng and Klose are all representatives of German football. However, since Klose gradually faded out, there is basically no such excellent traditional center in Germany, and there are more wandering forwards like Werner (a player who is more suitable to be a wingman), which is also the main reason for the poor performance of German football in these two major events.
