The players are losing patience with Nagelsmann.

The German national football team, despite securing first place in their group and advancing to the knockout stage of the World Cup, faces internal tensions according to reports from the British Daily Mail citing the German newspaper BILD. Some players reportedly feel that head coach Julian Nagelsmann does not adequately communicate his plans or provide sufficient information about team strategies and starting lineups. This lack of communication has led to frustration among some players, particularly after Nagelsmann unexpectedly announced minimal changes to the starting lineup against Ecuador, despite different attacking setups practiced during training. Additionally, several players who have yet to make their World Cup debut, including Nick Woltemade, have been kept on the bench, raising questions about their inclusion. Despite these issues, Germany remains a strong favorite against Paraguay in the upcoming round of 16.

Julian Nagelsmann, izbornik Njemačke, izrazio je svoju odluku o nastavku rada s reprezentacijom nakon neočekivanog ispadanja na Svjetskom prvenstvu, što je izazvalo široku pažnju u njemačkoj nogometnoj zajednici. Njemačka je u šesnaestini finala izgubila od Paragvaja nakon poraza na jedanaesteracima, što je završilo dramatičnim debaklom. Nagelsmann, koji je vodio reprezentaciju od rujna 2023. godine, izjavio je da želi nastaviti voditi momčad, ali je naglasio da odluka o tome ne pada na njega, već na Njemački nogometni savez (DFB). "Želim ostati. Ako me DFB želi, rado ću nastaviti i pripremati momčad za Europsko prvenstvo i Ligu nacija. Ako ne, to mi moraju jasno reći," rekao je Nagelsmann. Njegova odluka je bila jasna: nije osoba koja odustaje nakon neuspjeha. "Nisam netko tko bježi. To nije opcija," dodao je.

Debaklom u šesnaestini finala, Njemačka je izgubila 1:1 nakon jedanaesteraca, što je izazvalo ogroman razočaranje među fanovima i medijima. Igrači su promašili ključne prilike, a najzanimljiviji trenuci su bili povezani s pokušajima Jonathan Taha, Kai Havertza i Nicka Woltemadea. Tahan je promašio jedanaesterac u produžetku, a njegov pogodak bio je poništen nakon interventnog sudjelovanja VAR-a zbog prekršaja. Nagelsmann je bio u šokiranom stanju, a njegova reakcija na poništeni gol bila je izuzetno emocionalna. "Skandal je što je to poništio. Potpuni skandal. Postoje utakmice koje moraš dobiti prljavo. Ovu bismo dobili prljavo," izjavio je Nagelsmann. Iako je Nagelsmann priznao da Njemačka nije odigrala dovoljno dobro, izrazio je svoju volju da nastavi. "Spreman sam ako žele da dođem, a ako ne žele, moraju mi to reći," rekao je.

Reakcije iz Njemačke bile su žeste. Mediji kao što su *Bild* i *Kicker* naglasili su duboki problemi unutar reprezentacije, posebno u vezi s taktičkim pristupom i komunikacijom između Nagelsmanna i igrača. *Bild* je opisao situaciju kao "novu noćnu moru" za njemački nogomet, naglašavajući da je Njemačka izgubila svijetlobo na svjetskom prvenstvu. *Kicker* je istaknuo da je Paragvaj igrao čvrsto i organizirano, dok je Njemačka djelovala bez dovoljno ideje. Nagelsmann je tražio od igrača "prljaviju" i agresivniju utakmicu, ali njegova strategija nije donijela željeni učinak. Igrači su bili iznenađeni kada je Nagelsmann najavio da neće raditi značajne promjene u sastavu za utakmicu protiv Ekvadora, što je izazvalo dodatnu zabrinutost.

Unutar reprezentacije, pojavile su se napetosti između igrača i izbornika. Prema izvorima u *BILD*, igrači su nezadovoljni s Nagelsmannovom komunikacijom izvan treninga. Nagelsmann je iznenađio igrače kada je najavio da neće promijeniti sastav za Ekvador, iako su na posljednjem treningu uvježbavali drukčiji napadački scenarij. Igrači su bili iznenađeni kada je u početnoj postavi uvrstio Jamal Musiala umjesto Maximiliana Beiera. Nagelsmann je nakon poraza objasnio svoje taktičke poteze, tvrdeći da je želio dati priliku svima, što je popratio brojnim izmjenama u drugom poluvremenu. Međutim, neki igrači, posebno Nick Woltemade, koji je bio ključni član udarne postave tijekom kvalifikacija, su bili zabrinuti svojim statusom.

Njemačka, iako je osvojila prvo mjesto u skupini, nije izbjegla kritiku. Mediji su naglasili da je Njemačka izgubila svijetlobo na svjetskom prvenstvu, a Nagelsmann je ostao pod golemim pritiskom. Iako je Nagelsmann izrazio svoju volju da nastavi, njegova odluka nije bila jasna za sve. Reakcije izmedju igrača i medija su bile različite, a neki su predvidjeli kraj mandata Nagelsmanna. Iako je Nagelsmann izrazio svoju odluku, njegova budućnost još nije bila jasna. Njemačka je napustila Svjetsko prvenstvo ranije nego što je planirala, a Nagelsmann ostaje pod golemim pritiskom. Njegova odluka će biti testiran u budućim dogadjima, a njegova sposobnost da vodi reprezentaciju će biti pod pitanje.

Germany dropped out, and then the BBC came out with these brutal words about the menu: 'There must be consequences.'

In a dramatic quarter-final match in Boston, Paraguay defeated Germany 4-3 after extra time, eliminating one of the tournament's top favorites and sparking serious questions in Germany. The game was tightly contested, with Germany equalizing in the 54th minute through Kai Havertz but failing to capitalize further. During the penalty shootout, Paraguay's goalkeeper Orlando Gill made crucial saves, while Germany's players struggled with precision. Following the loss, German football journalist Raphael Honigstein on BBC Radio 5 Live expressed strong disappointment, suggesting Julian Nagelsmann, Germany's coach, would likely face consequences. Former German defender Arne Friedrich echoed these sentiments, stating Nagelsmann's tenure was likely over due to Germany's poor performance throughout the tournament.

Nagelsmann after a sensational fall: They have to tell me if they don't want me anymore

The German national football team was unexpectedly eliminated by Paraguay in the round of 16 of the World Cup. The match ended in a dramatic penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in regular time and extra time. Germany's defender Jonathan Tah missed his penalty in the sixth round, leading to their elimination.

Germany managed to equalize in the 54th minute through Havertz's goal, which canceled out Paraguay's lead from Julio Enciso. However, they were unable to score in the subsequent rounds. Coach Julian Nagelsmann expressed willingness to continue if the team wanted him to, but emphasized that he would need to be informed if he was no longer desired. The controversial decision to disallow Tah's goal in the 102nd minute due to a VAR intervention sparked criticism, with Nagelsmann calling it 'a complete scandal.'

The bitter reactions from Germany after the withdrawal, look at the front page of the most widely read German tabloid.

Germany's elimination from the World Cup by Paraguay in the round of 16 has sparked harsh reactions in German media. The team lost 3-2 after a dramatic penalty shootout, continuing their pattern of disappointment at major tournaments since 2018 and 2022. Germany had control of the game but failed to break down Paraguay's strong defense. Coach Julian Nagelsmann was visibly distraught after the match, and the media criticized his decision to start Deniz Undav, who struggled before being replaced by Jamal Musiala. Paraguay's strategy of waiting for counterattacks proved effective, with Julio Enciso scoring in the 42nd minute. The controversial disallowed goal by Jonathan Tah in extra time, due to a VAR review, further complicated Germany's chances. Media outlets like 'Bild' described the loss as another national humiliation, while 'Kicker' highlighted Paraguay's tactical success and Germany's lack of pressure.

Julian Nagelsmann has been dismissed as Germany's head coach following their failure at the World Cup. The German Football Association made this decision, according to reports from Bild and confirmed by Fabrizio Romano.

Earlier, Romano reported that Jürgen Klopp was willing to take over as coach and end his two-year break from coaching.
