What was the problem with using Germanics soldiers in the Roman army?

The only problem with using Germanic soldiers in the Roman army would be the language barrier, which was soon overcome. The German soldiers were loyal and because of their generally larger size, were often used as private bodyguards for emperors and members of the imperial families. If you are thinking of the Teutoburg disaster, that was an exception, and even in that case, several German leaders remained loyal to Rome and even tried to warn the Romans of the trouble.
