So, I think that if we don't have a shaky start like we used to in the group games, germany will have to play some serious football to score. The thing is we don't score easy either, all our goals are either from set pieces and very bad mistakes of the opponent. I hope that one bad german cb does some fluke(not hummels, the other one). | ||

I don't think we have any bad player in our team and especially not in defense. | ||

So you want to say that he's actually Seriously I think he's very bad and leagues below hummels and lam which are awesome. Boateng is just decent imo. Your biggest strength is your midfield. | ||

When it comes to the statistics / rates Badstuber and Hummels excel everyone else in the Bundesliga by FAR. Sure he (Badstuber) sometimes does a blunder here or there, can be said about anyone else in this age however, even Hummels, who's undoubtably one of the most talented defenders on the planet right now. Hummels is better in 1v1 situations whereas Badstuber usually has a very very good eye which is also shown by his passing skills, guy does like 1-2 passes that do not get delivered each game. Yes, Boateng is a bit weaker than the other 3, but if you wanna call him a weakness then EVERY team has weaknesses defensive. Greece gotta hope they get lucky else today will not be a very fun day for them. In fact I'm quite sure everyone agree's that Greece needs a lot of luck today, then again the political situation might just motivate them as much as humanly possible. Wish that shit would stay out of the football world. | ||

He is a great worker and has it proven already at this EC. | ||

1.) fairness both on the pitch as well as in the stadium and wherever else fans of both teams meet - keeping politics out of the sport. 2.) an attractive high-level football game. 3.) a German win.  In that order. | ||

In that order. Yeah, fairness is pivotal. Don't forget that referees had heavily wronged greece in all 3 matches. Although germany doesn't need the referee to win against us, the same could be said for russia and look what happened. | ||

I hope for a better game than yesterday although I think the moto will be the same, one team pushing, one team holding back and looking for counters when available. Germany either 1-0 or 2-1 (after a surprise offensive beggining by Greece culminating in a goal followed by 80something minutes defending into a loss near the end). | ||

Source (german newspaper): http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/em/startseite/570905/artikel_stabwechsel-im-sturm_klose-beginnt.html Gomez has to endure s lot in germany, really, that is a tough decision. Booting someone who has scored 3 goals in 3 games for your team. But since Klose is easily my favourite german forward, I don't think it is necessarily a bad decision. edit: Also Schürrle and Reus instead of Müller and Podolski. Now I really did not see that coming. Though Reus should be an excellent choice, a small quick player may fit in very well against a team like Greece. | ||

Löw going more offensively with quick strikers, schürrle has quite a strong shooting technique and I guess they will be extra motivated as it is their first showing in the Euros. | ||

To my knowledge both are players that wait for their team to create chances, they both have the Inzaghi style. Ofc Klose is awesome in set play, cause of his headers. Or am I wrong? Explain someone. | ||
