i dunno. it's still not quite clear why germany's actions did what it did..
i was explaining to a friend how germany rebuilt their national team after dropping out of euro 2000 group stages. he asked me: then how did they produce all those players before the reform, if they weren't "teaching basic skills to them" then? and what were the reasons for the decline?
in other words, how did italy produce facchetti, burgnich, valentino and sandro mazzola, rivera, altobelli, scirea, gentile, tardelli, meazza, zoff etc before that? or in the case of germany, muller, beckenbauer, brehme, sammer, forster, matthaus, rummennige, voller, walter, breitner, maier etc?
