So, they're kinda crap, the lot of them.
Expect it to change in the second half though.

False nines, apart from Messi, work when there are determined runners to exploit the space he creates (think Ballack circa 2002). Kroos and Özil are not those players, and Khedira is asked too much of in this situation. Either play Müller behind the false nine or no-one at all, bringing an extra central midfielder into play.
