oh wow, bvb fan detected. nah, the hummels-schmelzer defense in the testgame vs switzerland looked pretty solid.
i guess it all depends if Lahm is playing left or right Schmelzer/Hummel were pretty dissappointing in the testgame afaik, but their performance in the league was more than solid. If everybody steps up their game i think it probably will be Schmelzer - Badstuber - Hummels - Lahm or Lahm - Badstuber - Hummels - Boateng
The other way around.. If Lahm will play on the right, Schmelzer will be on the left and if Lahm's on the left, Boateng's most likely to be on the right (Höwedes also an option here). The other question is Mertesacker or Badstuber as centre-back (Hummels is confirmed i think). Against Switzerland Mertesacker was really poor, i think he just isn't in form yet after his injury so I hope for Badstuber-Hummels duo here.
Edit: Oh shit.. i looked at it from another angle haha. Sorry, you are right of course! 
Edit2: But if Schmelzer plays, Hummels will be playing next to him just like in Dortmund.Last edit: 2012-05-31 02:52:11 |

How can any football fan hate Figo?
Figo played a big part in preventing the dutch from qualifying in wc 2002. Went on to play his best match of the tournament against us in euro 2004 and than of course 2006. Having said that, I actually own a Figo shirt XD. I watched Portugal play a couple times during the Euro 2000 and he was simply brilliant. Loved the way they played throughout the tournament. Can't believe that side never won anything after their succes in the Youth world cup.
Please don't remind me. I got to grow up during one of Portugal's best eras.. an era of short comings. xD I bought a Figo shirt every WC and EC until he retired :D
Don't worry the Dutch understand you... So many great generations so many fucking losses all the time *cough*. |

| Badstuber will play. He did all the qualifier games and had a good season. It will be between Hummels and Merte, but I think Merte is still not at 100%. |

it doesn't matter if schmelzer plays or not. badstuber will play left centre back because he is left footed. Hummels will play right centre back even if schmelzer plays left back. (which i do not hope).

Can't see that happening, their defense is just outright bad. Germanys defense is nothing to be proud of either so we'll see

And after posting this, the SAME NIGHT... 'How to be England Manager' came on TV (I think it was BBC3). Grr lol
Yeah, I don't think its to do with our government really, just the fact we have to share TV and it never ever seems to be regional with regards to adverts/programmes etc. Even back in the day when there was 'BBC1 Scotland' etc it was mainly just the news that was different, not 99% of the actual programmes.
Anyways, I've got to dash off and toss a few cabers while eating haggis, might calm me down...

Always bad to lose experienced players, especially good players like Lampard. Will be interesting to see how the the aul' owl will line up the lions. |

Well my friend, add to the equasion "scott parker" is definantly going to start, a guy who is only good at running around the pitch for 90minutes and tackling the odd opponent. He isn't a defensive midfielder and he isn't a play maker midfield. He does not do anything you couldn't train an 18 year old to do. Lamps can't run box to box no more i admit that, but the guy is known to score and show up in big games. Take the last 3-4 months of Chelsea season, guy had been playing all the right passes and coming up with some tackles. Also add into the equasion that Lampard is 34? he wil be 36 by the time the squad for World Cup 2014 is announced, he probably won't get into that so it will be his last tournamet in a sense and well, in his "supposidly" last champions league run with his mates of Drogba and co, they managed to win the champions league, so yeah i think we will miss him.
I am biast i admit that, but most of my points are pretty accurate, maybe im a slight harsh on Parker, but please show me someone he is better than in his position..specially international level. |

| Very harsh on Parker, hes not good enough to boss a midfield but if his support is competent his effectiveness goes up exponentially. |

| sucks to not have lampard, but the biggest issue is calling up henderson, how many more LFC wastes of space can he cram into the lineup? |

The match vs Israel really made me like to see Schürrle starting ahead of Podolski at the EUROs.. such a great player. Also Müller doesn't seem to be in form yet. :/
My personal dream starting eleven for Germany:
Neuer
Höwedes, Hummels, Badstuber, Lahm
Khedira, Schweinsteiger
Reus, Özil, Schürrle
Klose

| Not a lot of people are talking about France but it's still a big nation for football and the current team haven't been defeated in 20 games all competitions. It is common knowledge in France that a french cannot perform at his best when he is favorite so this might be a good year for us. A little bit like 2006, except this time it's not a success based on one man but a good generation of players. |
