The Die Mannschaft manager believes that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 have different playing styles, and is all praise for his young squad.
Joachim Low reckons that his German side is completely different to Barcelona, and no comparisons can be drawn between the two units.
Low feels that both teams have different playing styles, and are extremely effective in their own manner.
The manager admitted that Barcelona play possession football, whereas Germany are more focussed on scoring goals as soon as they receive the ball. He believes that Pep Guardiola’s men are fond of exchanging short passes in their
build-up for a goal, but the DFB Eleven prefer scoring goals through long passing or counter attacks.
The manager insisted that he has a young squad at his disposal, and they have the potential to improve further.
While talking to DAPD, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfB-Stuttgart-c40879 manager further mentioned:
"We have developed a good mix of passing and running, ball-winning, and fast counter-attacks. We are not like Barcelona in keeping possession for very long. I tell my team: if we win the ball, I want to see the ball in the goal
in eight seconds. That's my philosophy.”
"What can still be improved further is the personal development of young players like [Mario] Gotze, [Toni] Kroos and [Andre] Schurrle." He added.
Low has predicted bright futures for Mario Gotze, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Toni-Kroos-c35425 and Andre Schurrle. The former Stuttgart boss believes that the youngsters can become the best in the business if they continue developing at the same rate.
Germany had a brilliant 2011 under Low, as they remained unbeaten throughout the year, and collected maximum points from their Euro 2012 qualifiers. Low also led Die Mannschaft to a famous victory over bitter rivals, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753,
for the first time in the country’s history.
Despite the impressive performances the German team has produced under Low, they have failed to win a single piece of silverware as yet. The DFB eleven finished runners-up in the Euro 2008, and claimed the third spot in the 2010
FIFA World Cup.
