no Hummels, but with Khedira?
this match just got a lot harder.

Nooo!

I would use the following 11:

Neuer

Lahm, Boateng, Mertesacker, Höwedes (or Großkreutz)

Schweinsteiger, Kroos

Müller, Götze, Schürrle

Klose

 

Khedira isn't in good shape and Özil needs a signal that he has to show more, we need a brilliant Özil against France. Lahm should be right defender again.

Lahm will never ever play defense anymore. Because he's an asshole and hates a successful team.

Schweinsteiger plays for Khedira, yay!



There's too much positivity about this match. It only can go wrong.

Boo, Mustafi, boo.

WTF? European football is being totally outclassed this World Cup. Time for a paradigm shift?



 

 

 

 

 

What the hell is going on? Can't believe what's happening.

always happens when the cup is in s america.

Not any particular reason for it to happen though, specially today. Algeria is vastly inferior technically and the weather is cool. Yeah the antagonizing crowd is a minus for Germany, but it's nothing the players haven't faced before.



 

 

 

 

 

Germany cant cope with the pace of the counter attack.

Mertesacker is simply too slow.

our defense is total junk (super slow, bad positional play) and is unable to start any kind of offensive play, but it's also the midfields fault, because nobody tries to run and create some space up front the defenders/def midfielders could pass into

everybody is just standing on their position doing nothing
