FC Bayern Forum

Should be an easy match tonight, but you never know. We could be walking on soap on this particular day.

Hope I'm wrong though.

The problem is that both of them play the offensive part of a double pivot partnership in their respective clubs. For Khedira that is actually his best position and role, and for Kroos he has been forced to play there due to our lacking squad depth in the past which we have discussed ad infinitum. I don't recall a lot of matches where we played both of them together on these positions, but when we did we looked atrociously in the DM space in front of our back-4.

Last Friday Khedira played the lone #6 against the Färöer Islands and didn't look too well either in this role, which is defensive by definition.

The @DFB_Team has released the lineup. Pretty much the same one that Mutu posted.

Schmelzer at LB! Finally! Kid deserves his chance.

We'll see at least one major f*ckup from him.

No live chat?

Finally playing with two real fullbacks. Schmelzer might not be as good as Lahm but you can't convince me that a CB is gonna do a better job than him at LB.

Aaand Jazeera is already trolling.
ANND A MISSED CHIP.

Jesus F*cking Christ. Already the first major mistake.

Khedira dropping super deep when we have the ball, making us attack in a 3-5-2. That's a wee bit complacent if you ask me, and can backfire easily (and almost has).

Oh god, Schmelzer is awful. He does everything wrong

SUpergoal REUSSSSSSSSSSS

I'd like to see Götze in the second half. Him and Reus have great chemistry, they can make sick stuff together. They are like Robbery

And Germany needs a solid LB because Schmelzer has always performed awful with the NT and I can't think of another good solution. I hate to see a CB playing as wingback
