Who else is pulling for the Germans the rest of the way? I've always pulled for Deutschland because of my family's heritage and upbringing. Been there before and loved every second of my 6 week stay. Big Bayern fan and am seeking a rebound from our Champions League debacle.

Really want Klose and the vets to get a World Cup win. What has to be done to take down the French? Who needs to step up for the rest of the tournament?

I'd like to see Lahm start in the back because it's been our weakest link thus far. He's still the best overall defender Germany has to offer. Someone in the attacking third needs to step up besides Mueller. No doubt Klose can but not for 90 minutes... I like him off the bench. I'm looking at Ozil, Kroos, and Goetze to get it together and soon.

As I said before the cup, I support Germany because of my family. They come after the US, but I am still pretty passionate.

Hummels is irreplaceable for Germany, I fear. One of the best in the world. Need him back.

Kroos has to improve as well. He's been shite this far. Bad decisions and pointless giveaways.

As far as the attack, Germany needs to be considerably more patient. You can win the World Cup running primarily a false 9, but you have to stop trying to force Muller to be a CF. He's a master of space, so he needs to be moving off the ball to get into the voids in the defense. Stop trying to supply him like an out-and-out striker.

To be honest I find the Germans boring this year. They have so much talent but not enough bravery. Not enough goal scoring. They look a little too much like the Spanish. I understand the Spanish were incredible for a number of years but they were also dreadfully boring. 

 

With all that said fug the French.

We need Hummels back bad, also would like to see Podolski back out there.  Goetze and Ozil were garbage.  I agree with moving Lahm back as well, we have so much talent in the midfield that he should be used where he can have the biggest impact.  Finally, as I said in the Ro16 thread, Klose needs to play.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
