I'm buying it

Spain may not make it out of the group. La Selección has prepared the last three championships by being at 85% of physical capacity at the opener, and methodically ramping up.
You can´t play this group this way. Their match against Australia is the last of three.
Does Germany have someone to play destructor in Khedira´s absence?

More than likely Gündogan and Schweinsteiger will play holding roles. They will lose the physical edge, but gain more in the long run. There aren't many physical teams out that would expose his loss anyway. Italy would, of course, be the exception.

Gündogan
Posted on 12/6/13 at 1:06 pm to lesismeaurx
I doubt they'll play Gündogan and Schweinsteiger together. More likely one or the other plus Kroos or Lars Bender.
Posted on 12/6/13 at 1:09 pm to hendersonshands
I just feel like Löw has had a tendency to play the offensive style. Kroos could obviously play in place of Khedira, I just think Gündogan is better defensively. Lars on the other hand....I just think Germany aren't very good when he starts.
Posted on 12/6/13 at 1:15 pm to lesismeaurx
Schweinsteiger and Gündogan are too similar to each other. Wouldn't be surprised if it's Kroos.
Posted on 12/6/13 at 1:18 pm to hendersonshands
With the way Kroos has been playing it would be hard to argue.
A midfield trio of Özil, Schweinsteiger, and Kroos is fricking ridiculous.

Our most likely road en route to winning the World Cup:
Ghana
Portugal
Germany
Belgium
Argentina
Spain
Germany/Brazil
Real prediction:
2-0 World Cup final victory over Mexico in Coulmubs as all the stadiums in Brazil collapse, so it needs to be relocated to our home turf.

Damn and we have 2 guys thinking that Spain wont make it out of group B. Would be crazy for sure. Could Chile really pull that off?
