However, there is no assurance that we can produce world class players so soon. Only time can tell.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sure we have skilled players, but the biggest thing might just be that we are so well conditioned and how we can play for 90 minutes at a high tempo which is needed in soccer at an international level.
We're only going to be able to compete in the world if we continue to be innovative.
We certainly will prepare consciously and professionally, but still you cannot predict the future.
If we perform as a unit and if every single player gives it his very best, everything can happen.
We should not fool ourselves. We are not one of the world's top teams any more.
There's no point in making predictions. It's not worth speculating because nothing is set in stone and things change all the time in football. Today there are opportunities that no one knows if they will come round again in the future.
When you have a core group of young players as we do, the future looks bright.
People say the most important thing is building a world-class team.
We are well aware of the task ahead of us in what will be a very difficult match but which we all dream of playing.
I am certain there is too much certainty in the world.
