[2011-11-11] Ukraine vs Germany friendly.

Kick off: 

This game will be broadcast @ ARD Das Erste (satellite Astra & Hotbird - free on air).

No Neuer, Lahm, Basti or Ballack:wink: for Germany

Line ups for today match according to Bild (It seems we'll try a 4-1-4-1 with both Oezil and Goetze):

Goezil

Seems like Kroos is the victim...

Who else?`Putting Kroos to be the sole anchor man would be asking for trouble.

However, I thought Zieler would get a shot...

Also, why the hell is Löw insistent on using the tall and relatively slow and bulky Höwedes in the fullback position. I would certainly love for him to call up Beck, but even without him, Boateng is a FAR better option out wide, especially considering he has a teammate in Müller playing ahead of him.

Schürlle for Müller?
(Well, he needed the break anyhow.)

He could have played Kroos instead of Goetze, and Goetze instead of Schuerrle... and Schuerrle would be waiting on the bench to come on when Loew finally realizes that Podolski is sucking

Very interesting lineup. I too hope that Kroos gets a few minutes though...

I thought wrong. The game will start in 20:45 CET, so in 1 and a half hour from now.

Whoa, I didn't even notice that. A ludicrous decision while Podolski is still on the field, but... he needs a break, and it would be very difficult for Löw to bench Podolski given his recent form.

Gomez is captain


Aufstellung:
Zieler - Boateng , Hummels , Badstuber , Aogo - Khedira , Träsch - Kroos , Özil - M. Götze - Gomez

Stupid line up

Well, he's experimenting, and rightly so, but... it sure is a defensive lineup...

Why not Neuer in the lineup ?? Is it just for him to get the rest or what?

Any feeds?
