Provisional Germany Squad announced

Who is the Germany coach this year?
 
What amazes me is this season Kevin Kuranyi scored more goals than Klose and Podolski combined :O Still he is left out.


Wiki said:
On 11 October 2008, Kurányi was left out of the 18-man squad to face Russia. After watching the first half from the stands with other unselected players, he left the stadium during the half-time interval and failed to return to the German team hotel. After this incident, German team coach Joachim Löw said that he would never again select Kurányi for the national team[3]. One of his advisors said of the incident to reporters, "He decided what he for himself found to be right, which was to say I’m going home."

Maybe that has something to do with it?
 
Soo... the lad had a paddy like a pathetic child.

Dont blame the coach, your squads gotta stick together at all times, especially major competitions!

i never cease to be amazed by the stupidity of some footballers. so you didnt make. man up and try harder and get in. instead you act like a child and now its cost you a world cup place.
 
precisely! ^^

they are EXTREMELY privilidged to be able to have an amazing lifestyle and play something they love for a living "except Assou-Ekotto :$" and get paid ridiculous sums for it

yes, they have massive ego's and will not react well to it getting hurt, but grow up a bit and prove yourself! Like Kuranyi clearly has done... if he didn't storm off he would be in the World Cup squad for sure after an in form season.

bet he regrets it now!
 
never write off the germans you would be stupud to. they have proven time after time they are a sensational tournement side.
 
Didn't the England reserves beat Germany courtesy of Upson and Terry, on German territory as well. Not sure as Low as a coach, still though, they are tournament specialists.

ballack has always been a excellent captian for germany. i belive he loves being captian and really rises to the challenge.
