Semi final 1: Brazil vs Germany

he's an utterly useless manager; germany's success is in spite of him. Clueless with personnel and tactics.

Literally anyone could have achieved the success germany have had over the last 6 years, he's simply landed the job at the right time.

Plus he's got a really stupid hairdo.
ok.

Wouldn't have started Klose. Unlikely to be able to last 90 minutes and Germany have no up front options on the bench if they need a goal late in the game. Would have to be Hummels or Mertesacker going up top...

Nah, it'll be Martinez when the time comes.

Ha, comedy defending from Brazil. An umarked Muller only ends up one way.

Interesting way to defend a corner, giving the guy five yard from the centre of the goal a good few yards of space...

Comedy goal but a great start. As much as I don't like this Brazil I want them to show something now.

Probably biased, don't really rate him, but he was awful in their last game, and had a shocking end to last season. Love Draxler too. Good old FM bias.

Talking of FM bias. I hope Bernard plays well.

Ozil really should have been dropped for Draxler or Gotze. Was dire in the last game.
What have Götze or Draxler done in recent months?

Edit: Hadn't scrolled down. Yeah what Pothas said. And Özil also seems to be the only attacking player for Germany who's ever criticised for a poor game.

Draxler earnt a 7.86 average rating in the Bundesliga for my Bayern side. :ph34r:

It's early, but Brazil look clueless when it comes to breaking down this German defence. No spark with Neymar gone. Has Bernard touched the ball yet?

Because he's no longer a trendy player to gush over now that he plays for Arsenal.
