UEFA Euro 2012 qualifiers: Miroslav Klose boasting about Germany’s power

Germany are 3rd in the FIFA World Rankings at the moment, but Miroslav Klose believes that everyone looks at the DFB Eleven “with envy”.

Miroslav Klose thinks Germany are the envy of the world football public.

Germany indeed look invincible at the moment. Their recent 3-2 defeat of Brazil only reminded the public about Joachim Lowe and his team’s ambitions. In the Euro 2012 qualifiers, the Germans hold a perfect record. They’ve conceded only 3 goals in 7 matches whereas they surpass the 3 goals per match average.

Germany are poised to go through their UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying campaign without knowing anything else than wins. On Friday night, they will affront Austria in their 8th game of the qualifiers which they are expected to win. According to Miroslav Klose, the time has come for the Germans to genuinely think about celebrateing on a podium.

“All that's missing in my career at the moment is winning a big international tournament. Next year's European Championships are supposed to fill that void,” he told Bild.

Talking about Germany’s potential as a team, Miroslav Klose concluded:

“Is the team strong enough to win Euro 2012? Of course! The world of football is looking at us with envy.

“We play a very attractive and attacking style of football. It's a joy to see to see our team in action.”
