You say they looked average against Inter, yet you forget that they reached the final of the Champions League.
Germany, like Spain, will have their teams made up from the bulk of a couple of league clubs. They'll have a ready made 'team' by comparison to most.
I expect Germany to reach at least the semi-finals.
