Germany coach Joachim Low has refused to panic following his side's Euro 2016 qualifying defeat to Poland.
The world champions suffered a shock 2-0 loss in Warsaw on Saturday as their hopes of reaching the tournament suffered a setback.
However, after recently seeing key players such as Philipp Lahm and Per Mertesacker retire from the national side, Low is eager for his new-look squad to be given time.
"We shouldn't put too much strain on the players," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "The team are self-critical and the atmosphere is good, just as it was before."
Germany return to qualifying action on Tuesday night when they entertain the Republic of Ireland.
