The 3-4 victory in Basel has put out several learnings for the German manager Julian Nagelsmann with squad changes being a major takeaway. From attack to defense, here are three potential changes that could noticeably improve the German side.

Attack – Havertz out for Woltemade The German attack was fluid and trigger happy with a total of 22 shots taken. The best part about the attack was also the worst, it was so fluid that it lacked cohesion and a sense of relative positioning. The goals relied on the quality of 2-3 players to stitch up a sequence rather than being the outcome of any definitive tactics.

While this in itself could be a tactic, it is very unlike the German way of football. This should be seen more like a bug rather than a feature. There were two big visible points of weakness.

The first being Kai Havertz. He was sluggish and failed to keep up with the pace of the German play. One-touch passes to connect the attack and provide layoffs were the need of the attack tonight.
