FC Bayern Forum

Germany's last match of the year and the one before the big game against the Czech Republic. They're playing in Cyprus but I don't think Cyprus will have any advantage over Germany so I'm gonna pick Germany. I think Klose will get one goal.

Per Mertesacker is able to play again, so he’ll be in the squad for Germany. I’ve voted Germany win.

PS. นัด = Match
PSS. ประตู = Goal

Defender line in my mind

Lahm ---Merte ---Arne -- Fritz (or Jansen ???)

it is hard work for Lov to choose defender line when Metze come back

Germany plays vs Cyprus away @ Nicosia
i think Mutu confused them

Germany win. Although more pressure on Klose and midfield goal-getters like Ballack and Schweini, 'cause Podolski isn't there. He seems to perform better for country too.

Easy match for Germany ... but Löw didn´t nominate Ottl for the match he should give him a chance to play for the NT

ottl will not fit in the german midfield as there is stiif comp. from the world class def. mid. frings

MUTU wrote:Agreed. There are better DM than Ottl for the NT at the moment. Ottl is still young and eligible to play for the Under 21, which is what he's doing. Should Frings get injured, you have to assume that Kehl would be playing instead.

Or borowski or trachowski

It’s doubtful if Trochowski will play in the Cyprus match. He’s picked up an injury, along with Schneider.
Lehmann is set to miss this match too. He's out with a heavy cold, so Hildebrand will almost definitely start.

Yeah, Hildebrand will start the game and Trochowski and Scheider did report to the team in Frankfurt but more than likely they won't go with the team to Cyprus. Bummer!!!

Even with all the injuries (also sickness in this case) that the team has, I hope they can still pull out a big win.

true but again at Euro qualify groups 2004 we were nothing ..haha but when we turned up at the Euro in Portugal we simply wrote history
ps : Cyprus is you can say a independent Greek island. Its just Greece in a smaller version.
and MUTU Germany is playing Cy and not Gre
