there is another option though which kind of intrigues me, especially after watching the first half of Germany-Ireland the other day: Ozil as the nominal false 9. it was only Ireland, but he worked well at that position, plus it gets Ozil and Santi both on the pitch in central, if free-to-roam, roles


I saw this too. Intrigued me. It would work best with two guys wide who can stay wide; a Theo and a Podolski. I don't know where Santi would fit in. Maybe deeper at the point of a midfield three, with two anchors behind him.

his intelligent movement, especially drifting outside, opened up some lanes for Schurrle and Muller to run into. could work well with Poldi and Theo out wide.

whatever formation we're in, i just can't wait for Theo to get back.

Yep. In the Sunderland game Theo should have had a hat trick by halftime. Now with Cazorla and Ozil together he is really going to stretch defenses for himself and others.

i would like Reid a whole lot more than Ashley Williams, especially for that price.

If he maims Chicharito, I'd pay double.

I guess thats what im getting at, 2 of those arent healthy and carzola has already missed time. So yeah we would be screwed unless everyone else is healthy.

No. I'd be super pissed if that happened.
