The German national team is certainly one of the candidates to win the 2022 World Cup, but are the `tanks` really strong enough to take the throne in Qatar at the end of this year?

In just over a month, the biggest football festival on the planet, World Cup 2022, will kick off in Qatar.
Fans are naturally very excited before the start date and the national teams are also entering the final stages of preparing, perfecting and assembling the most satisfactory framework to prepare for the upcoming World Cup.
The 2022 World Cup will be the most special World Cup in history.
Before every major tournament, the Germans are always considered a championship candidate.
However, it will not be easy for the Germans to achieve their goals because there are too many big players with quality squads this season, including Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, France, Spain…
It has been 8 years since the Germans last ascended to the top of glory.
The 2014 World Cup witnessed the sublimation of central defender duo Matt Hummels and Jerome Boateng.
But now the situation has changed a lot.
The German national defense is now a convergence of young but inexperienced elements.
The German team now still has quality midfielders like Rudiger, Sule, Nico Schlotterbeck or Mathias Ginter, but of all the names mentioned above, only Rudiger can bring peace of mind, the remaining names are simple.
Fullback is also a position that leaves many worries for coach Hansi Flick.
Perhaps Antonio Rudiger is the best hope in the rear of the `German tank`.
Coach Hansi Flick favors the 4-2-3-1 formation and it is almost certain that the matching pair of Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka will work side by side in the midfield of the German national team.
As for Leon Goretzka, the German team simply has a `bulldozer` in the middle.
In the hands of coach Hansi Flick, there are two of the best central midfielders in the world: Kimmich and Goretzka.
However, what will happen if one of the two players above cannot be absent from the 2022 World Cup journey?
The Germans are always proud to always produce top attacking players through all periods.
Perhaps the German national team’s attack at the 2022 World Cup will continue to rest on the shoulders of Thomas Muller.
Besides, the youth of Musiala, Sane, Gnabry or Julian Brandt can reassure coach Flick somewhat.
However, the highest spearhead position in the attack is a real headache for the captain of the German national team.
Kai Havertz and Timo Werner could not meet the goal output.
As for Kai Havertz, the Chelsea star’s favorite position is a virtual number 9 in coach Graham Potter’s system, but no matter what position he plays, the player born in 1999 is not the type of player who can
In general, the German national team gradually possesses equal personnel at all levels.
