Agreed, even without Gomez, we were clearly the stronger side and seemed more likely to win until Bastian's mishap. It's very unfortunate,...
It will be interesting to see how our team performs against the 'non-contending' teams. Regardless of our recent struggles, Spain drubbing aside,...
I like the Musiala, Wirtz, Kai, and Gundo combination. While I prefer a natural #9, I believe Julian favors Kai due to its facilitation of greater...
Anyone know why Sane was dropped?
Prior to injury, Khedira, to me, was one of the most important players of his generation.
I think Sane would be an effective sub that can run at tired defenses.
I feel for Flick, the players all under delivered and made stupid mistakes, but he had to go. Results were not going to change with him in...
I love the idea. The team can play defensevly when needed, switch to offensive mode as needed without having to sub players. I love the overall...
I may have oversimplified my argument. In the 80s, German players were undoubtedly superior due to a highly competitive league, advanced training,...
It is a lot of things. German players were once known for their fighting spirit and arrogance, believing they were better than most despite not...
I hope so. However, based on the mess of the last few friendlies, I have no idea how he knows his best line up and ideal formation. Nothing...
I think what they mean by a real #9 is a striker that can play well alone upfront. Besides someone like Gerd Muller, most successful NT strikers...
I probably don't understand the equation well enough. If you are saying the quality of the chance is the same then... I was thinking where there...
They can create chances coz that's what they do at their Clubs (as 2ndry strikers). Poor finishing is simply because they are not clinical...
I think 2ndry attackers, in general, will have a lower conversion rate. Add in the expectation of being the primary goal getter, a couple of...
Except for Fulkurg, our attacking players are support attackers, better suited as the 2nd striker. At their Clubs, they are not expected to be...
So, why is that? What are the reasons we used to be able to get the best out of our players at thr NT now we don’t? I remember when it was the...
Both teams this season are shadows of themselves. 2 games is too small of a sample size based on the overall trend I am speaking of. Bayerns...
Aside from the Spain game, it is amazing to see how rattled the German players get when they concede a goal or things are not working as planned....
Mueller, Kai and Gnabry played like crap. Mueller should be done. If Kai is going to be only used as #9, he should be done too. Kimmich was...
True but Germany typically schedules an easy warm up just before tournament start so the team goes in with confidence. A narrow 1-0 victory was...
I see Nmecha getting dropped from the team. Unless injured Fulkurg is going. Youssoufa Moukoko also might be well on his way. I am excited...
Key is for him to get a call up. Flick would not plan to playing him much. However, if attack struggles and he comes on and makes an impact,...
Fulkurg has the skill and physicality for a focal #9. I can see Flick dropping Nmecha and taking Fulkurg to the WC.
Another disappointing half. Too many lost balls, like these players need to learn the basic skills. Build up is close and passing going wide and...
