Germany: Neuer, Boateng, Hummels, Badstuber, Lahm, Khedira, Schweinsteiger, Müller, Ozil, Podolski, Gomez.
Holland: Stekelenburg, Van der Wiel, Heitinga, Mathijsen, Willems, de Jong, Van Bommel, Robben, Sneijder, Afellay, Van Persie. Matthijsen back in for Vlaar is the only change either team made. Disapointed that Gomez plays over Klose again. I realize that it´s propably tough to leave out the winning goal scorer but Klose is a much, much better fit with the midfield that is on the pitch ... Take the 3:0 over the Netherland in November ( ), not one of theese goals takes place with Gomez up front instead of Klose.

Who gave Dennis Bergkamp a german jersey and a Mario Gomez mask ?
I stand corrected, again. Now he has to run, run, run until the 70th, then Klose can finish the job great play by Schweinsteiger to set it up, not just the pass but also getting into the spot to receive the pass from Müller beforehand.

The Dutch are playing defense like my rec league teams do when we get tired. Flat across the back and nobody picking up the ballcarrier in midfield.

dutch rotate so much offensively, no one has any idea anymore where to pass the ball. Basically looks like everybody does whatever they want with no regard to any system.
And defensively MVB and De Jong don´t do shit, they just stand in no man´s land while Schweinsteiger, Khedira and the Alien get in between them and the defense.

Germany not brilliant by any stretch, but if brilliant then leads to getting bounced by spain and this sort of play (lets call it "decent looking efficiency") leads to a title, i´m all game

nothing spectacular in the 2nd half but a win is a win. 1 huge save by Neuer, almost a crazy goal by Klose on a Stekelenburg brainfart.
The last 8-10 minutes the dutch team wasn´t able to pick up the pace one last time, still don´t like the german teams tendency not to go for the kill there and just try to bide their time until the final whistle... Anyway, going to bed happy enough today

thanks for breaking that down, allways appreciate the work you do there
Hope the Netherlands beat Portugal, although i must admit that i´d rather have Denmark advance. There´s allways the possibility of a high-potential team like Holland putting it all together after a miraculous last second advancing and if you don´t mind i don´t want to meet such a team in the final German team can´t slack, so that´s good for the dutch. I expect 2 or 3 changes at most (Boateng is banned with 2 yellows, then i guess 1 midfielder and Klose getting the start to get some rythm as there will be a game where you need him to come in and score, not be an aditional defender)

Also : Is it just me or is the level or play pretty damn good so far ? I mean, maybe the highs aren´t that high but even the kinda-bad games aren´t hard to look at.
Only thing is that many teams definitely hit a wall after 75 minutes.

That was a strange one. There were a lot of rumors last night that he was leaving, but he strongly denied them this morning. Seems like he made some demands for a huge contract increase thinking they wouldnt have the nerve to fire him about it. Liked the tweet "Harry Redknapp will reportedly be paid £3,000,000 in compensation by Tottenham, which after tax will equate to approximately £3,000,000." |

Although, the general expectation here is that Germany will try to draw with the Danes, ensuring group victory and knocking out Oranje, yet at the same time Portugal will pull their usual tricks and beat us, few people think we can beat them, lett alone by the required 2 goals. It would be quite unique to experience a group phase knock-out, we've been spoiled with surviving 'groups of death' (2000, 2004, 2006, 2008), in my soccer aware life time we failed to reach the knock-out phase only once: the 2002 WC, that we entirely missed. In contrast, aside from the Ukraine, all the other participants at Euro2012 had to go through it at least twice.

You know that you have the chance at a truly great team when many people and experts in Germany still bitch about the team playing timid and yet people outside Germany are impressed
Weirdly i can see both points as the team clearly is still in the fine-tuning stage, especially now that they had to adjust to playing with Gomez up front. Mueller/Podolski/Özil are all decidedly average so far (with both Müller and Özil having a better 2nd game than first) So far the defense has been more impressing, not just pure defending but also in build-up and bal controll. I can´t think of many better pair of CBs in that regard than Badstuber (very good at it) and Hummels (outstanding). How did guys outside Germany see those 2 ? Hummels so far leads the german team in interceptions, won duels, has yet to commit a foul and he also leads them in touches (some according to uefa.com and the others from the great whoscored.com ) and it´s not like germany is just passing it around in defense, those are genuine "making yourself available and then making the play" touches. The way he moves into midfield for a string of passes when the situation calls for it is pretty great. Badstuber is considered a really good build-up player himself, yet Hummels has 30% more touches than him. If he continues that it will be extremly difficult to put real pressure on Germany because you basically have a 3rd ball controlling midfielder available at all times. also, i just have to post this ... Please bare with me here

I think it’s been pretty clear over the last few transfer windows that Daniel Levy doesn’t trust him with the check book, and Spurs are at a point that they need to spend some serious money if they are going to try for top four consistently. Combine that with the horrible run of games that just so happened to coincide with Harry madly chasing the England job and this was kind of inevitable. So I’m pretty excited about how much ambition this move is showing from Levy, it could of course blow up but to dare is to do and all that. Of course this all depends on who gets appointed; you can’t really evaluate a firing without knowing the subsequent hiring. Levy obviously went through a thorough search just a few months ago when he had to think Harry was leaving for England, so he knows who he wants. |

The heavy favorite is David Moyes from Everton. As an Everton fan I really hope he turns them down - if he can hang onto Baines and Fellaini and get Pienaar they have a real shot at European play. Then again, Redknapp was the heavy favorite to get the England job and we know how that turned out...

Moyes would certainly be the safe move, but kind of a meh hire for me. I think we need to make the type of hire that will say to Bale and Modric and future signings that we are aiming for something big. But I’m a Spurs fan, so I’m probably overestimating the level of manager who would be interested in the job.
We are kind of stuck in that no mans’ land where the level of player and manager we need to take the next step doesn’t want to come to a club who hasn’t taken that step yet. It will take quite a bit of inspiration to get us there, and I don’t think Moyes is up to it. |

So, if Spain beats Ireland, and then goes on to tie Croatia 2-2, Italy is OUT no matter what they do in the final game against Ireland.
(and yes, if it does happen that way, the cries of Fix coming from Italy would be loud and probably justified, after all takes one to know one ) Key EURO regulation changes approved – UEFA.com

Yup, it was Sweden and Denmark playing to a 2-2 draw that knocked out Italy in 2004 as all three sides had 5 points and the tie was broken by number of goals scored in a head to head tiebreaker

this is one of the more lopsided games i´ve seen at a Euro or WC, Ireland is fighting admireably but absolutely no chance ...
cold as ice by Silva. Shay Given decided to show up with a brilliant save, good for him. Before the 2:0 came a horrendous mistake by him.

Unless you can make them respect you on the counter you have no chance against this Spain team. Not much cutting edge but you don't need it when you have 70% possession

yep, they suffocate you and drain the life out of you with their style of play and ability top pressure as soon as they loose the ball (on the off chance that actually happens). My big hope for Germany is the CB pairing Hummels/Badstuber being able to keep possession and open play vertically.

No need for Group C scenarios, Spain and Croatia will draw 2-2, Spain wins the group, Croatia finishes second.

have to reiterate how fucking awesome the Irish Fans were yesterday, this was a great moment to witness. My comment came before they started singing (the song is called Fields of Athenry if anyones wondering), when that went on i kinda lost it in a good way.
The german commentator even shut up and it seemed as everybody else in the satdium did the same to listen to them, just a great thing to happen.

And until a colored man is a full citizen, like me, I haven’t the leisure to enjoy the freedom that colored man risked his life to maintain for me. I don’t own what I have until he owns an equal share of it. Until somebody beats me and blinds me, I am in his debt."- Orson Welles August 11, 1946 |
