Just now, the German Football Association announced the team's 27-man squad for the European Championship. For the German team, they are playing on home soil in the upcoming European Championships, so the whole team takes it very seriously. And they have also selected a set of the strongest squad at this stage, and the coaching staff has brought all the best players this season with them, although there is some controversy.

First of all, the goalkeeper position, the German team brought four goalkeepers in order to insure, they are Neuer, Ter Stegen, Nubel and Baumann. Objectively speaking, the goalkeeper position of the German team is relatively secure. Normally, Manuel Neuer would be the starting XI. If anything happens to him, then there is Ter Stegen who has also played well. It is fair to say that Germany is also one of the few teams to have two world-class goalkeepers, while Nubel and Baumann have also performed well in the Bundesliga this season, so they are in the squad. This is arguably the richest position of the German team at the moment.

This was followed by the backline, with Henrichs, Mittelstadt, Kimmich, Rudiger, Koch, Tower, Raum and Schlotterbeck selected for the selection. Among these players are not only the main players of the current big teams, but also the core of the mid-table teams that have played well this season. Arguably with a reasonable age and a reasonable distribution of momentum, the team's poor backline in the tournament should be alleviated in this summer's European Championships. Of course, there are problems. Because the German Football Association did not call up Hummels, who has been in hot form this season. As the team's former captain, Hummels has been a veteran but has been really good this season.

He led Borussia Dortmund all the way to the Champions League final, and many fans thought Hummels had the hope of continuing to protect the quality of the German team's defence in the upcoming European Championships. But it was not expected that Nagelsmann did not call him up directly, which caused a huge controversy. I wonder if the backline will become a foreshadowing for the German team in the next European Championship? After talking about the defenders, let's look at the midfield, the midfielders are Wirtz, Musiala, Gundogan, Andrich, Pavlovich, Hlos, Sane and Kroos.

Among them, Kroos's return was a surprise for the fans. Because the veteran can play the role of the anchor in the team, with him in the midfield of the German team, the team's performance in key battles can be guaranteed. In addition, two supernovas, Musiala and Wirtz, have begun to take over the German midfield in recent years, and both of them have been in hot form this season. And what's interesting is that since both of their idols are Messi. In addition, there are similarities in the style of play, so many German media have called it that there are currently two new Messis in the national team. Hopefully, the two of them can bring a boost of attacking creativity to the German team.

At the same time, there was controversy in midfield that Goretzka was not selected. Many fans believe that Goretzka's form has been up and down this season. But he can also be a suitable rotation player in the European Championships, and there is a real problem with the manager not taking it. But the coach should have taken into account Goretzka's inconsistent form, so he didn't intend to take risks in the cup. Finally, let's look at the front line. For the current German team, how to solve the problem of attacking quality is the key to whether the team can achieve results in the European Championship. In the past few tournaments, the German team's forward line has always fallen short of expectations, and the team's weakness in key games has led to an early exit in the group stage. This time they brought with them Stuttgart's outstanding Onduff, Hoffenheim's Bayer, Borussia Dortmund's Phil Kruger, as well as Müller and Havertz.

Objectively speaking, this set of strikers with the center forward position has at least been solved. Phil Krueger and Kai Havertz both have the ability to start. In addition, Muller can also play the same role as Kroos as a veteran. In addition, Sane in the midfield can be pushed to the position of winger, so the overall strength of the German team can still be guaranteed. What do you think about this?
