There was an absolute horrendous dive on the second day iirc with absolutely zero contact, and the ref just gave the guy a talking to I remember that one. Also yesterday it looked like Victor Moses was trying out for the Nigerian diving team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeEvans Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Watching Boateng and Hummels on the ball trying to pick out passes when Kroos is standing next to them is infuriating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeEvans Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Draxler has been very good. He should definitely continue to start for Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the star for Germany at the Confed Cup last year and it seems he's continuing that, even the full team back. He's somewhat wasted at PSG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes the only guy who really looks like he's a threat to Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperately wanted Chelsea to get him last summer when PSG was trying to offload him. He’s been their best player today for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullsandBroncos Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 If Mexico could pass on their counter attacks this game wouldn't even be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I have huge doubts about Germany after watching this. They need to change their midfield in my opinion moving forward to add a little more athleticism. Bench Khedira.

But the thing is, I feel like with how they've played today, a team like Spain would be easier to play against. Spain had a lot of passing, like Germany, but then again, Spain is also much more athletic. Portugal I think wouldn't struggle much with this team too. Even though they're older than dirt. Khedira has dropped off quite a bit since he has been playing with Juventus. Must be dat Serie A ball he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont really gave a great holding midfielder or even really athletic, they've got a lot of guys in the same mold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BullsandBroncos Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 A methodical passing, unathletic, fundamental team is having it's struggles against the exact opposite type of team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
