As supporter of the mighty Bayers of Leverkusen, #4 side in the Bundesliga, I too fully support Mein Country's squad despite the fact that we sent zero players this year. I am looking forward to 5 (five) quality games before the boys come home with the prestigious quarterfinal runners-up trophy.

It has been a single game against a (on that day) terrible side. We are the kings of barely making it out of the group after a superb first effort so wait with your predictions until the KO games at least.

I can't believe both Spain and England got eliminated before we even played our second game. Surreal.

Defense was bad, offense was unlucky/inept. Rather have this happen now than in the KO games, we'll bounce back like we always do. Also a draw against USA is enough to advance (someone correct me on this if I'm wrong but I think I played through every scenario) and lol if we can't manage that. I expect us to win though, as always in game 3.

Müller has a cut which apparently won't need stitches, so he should be back next game.

Still not as bad as Poschmann, whose only comment about Matuidi breaking some Nigerian's ankle was "eh, these things happen; look, he even goes and checks in on him, that's sportsmanship!" Also, Bundesliga thread crowd (esp. Bayern block): I was wrong about Manuel Neuer. What irritated me about his trips outside the box was that they never seemed to be necessary and thus I considered them risks he didn't need to take, especially since he faffed quite a few of them when he played for Germany (never got scored on though, luckily). However, I now see that if he has to be there (because what the gently caress was Löw thinking with this defence), he is, and there were at least half a dozen saves he didn't have to make because the tackled the striker instead. I understand now that he errs on the side of caution and rather leaves his box one too many times, even if it seems like he wouldn't have to. In conclusion, I was dumb and loving wrong and he's the best keeper in the world.

http://www.spox.com/de/sport/fussba...frankreich.html So much for that I guess. Höwedes will continue to be useless as LB and since Mustafi is injured, who the hell is gonna start on RB? Boateng should start as FB again since Hummels is still down with the flu apparently.

Good news, apparently I was wrong and Hummels will start on Friday.

Dunban posted:Eh, Boateng is a good RB and Höwedes was only bad against Algeria, he did fine in the group stage matches. The problem is that Höwedes creates nothing on offense, which means there's one less option the opponent has to be ready for.

I feel legit bad for Neymar but then I remember we're missing Reus and it's a sport and injuries happen so gently caress Brazil, we're gonna win 2-0 and they'll be the beta bitches who have to celebrate a 3rd place at home like we did in 2006.

This isn't India, there's a maximum occupancy to every train and if people are just refusing to leave the doorways (happens a lot on regional trains and S-Bahnen after football games, not just on ICEs), the train has to stay put. Sorry about that, but I prefer it to the train just taking off with its doors open and waiting for enough people to fall out.

rope kid posted:Other than historic reasons, I like the idea of a GER-NED final because of the rosters of the respective teams. Matches dominated by individual star players like Messi or Neymar are less exciting to me than seeing two really high level teams go at it. Still, ARG-GER could be sweet. Yes,

He just never loving moves and when the ball is still in front of him, he just plain refuses to mark a man and stands around uselessly in free space until it gets passed past him and he can wait for the defense to mop it up.
