Damn, how could I even... time for self whipping in the name of J. Cleese.It's a Fawlty Towers reference.
It is just like us with Morata yesterday. You KNOW that Werner will scorePleased to see Saka starting. Looks like I'm the only one!
Werner scares me.
I wouldn’t mind if it was Mount or Grealish or Foden partnering Rice. 5 defenders, 2 defensive midfielders & a winger who also plays full back is pathetic. Germany aren’t that good. We are setting up like we’re Norwich going away to Man City. It’s horribly negative.Probably works well against us though.
This. I am really struggling to see how we can beat England with him up front. I miss Klose.I beg you Werner, please perform just once, just fecking once.
I mean Müller, Gnabry, Havertz clearly hasn't worked out so well, they were all too similar and operating too much in the same spaces. I'm not a fan of Werner in general, but I actually see the point in including him ahead of Gnabry, to add more width and depth.This lineup actually worries me quite a lot. I get the feeling that we'll rund our head against the defense for 25 minutes, then concede twice quickly before half from bang average counters that we can't deal with. A no holds barred offensive slug fest would have suited us so much better.
Finally? He started the previous game only 7 days ago.YES, he starts Saka. Finally!
I wouldn't even put that past Southgate.If England win, he's playing a 631 formation in the quarters.
Doesn't count. That was against the Czechs.Finally? He started the previous game only 7 days ago.
Chelsea won the Champs League with Werner and Havertz and they were up against better sides than this England XI.This. I am really struggling to see how we can beat England with him up front. I miss Klose.
I would say that was in spite of having Werner, Chelsea still managed to win.Chelsea won the Champs League with Werner and Havertz and they were up against better sides than this England XI.
So if Chelsea can do it, Germany certainly can!I would say that was in spite of having Werner, Chelsea still managed to win.
I actually think differently. I thought that when it means positions they worked pretty fine. Werner drives me crazy in every match he plays for Germany. Against France the main problem in my eyes were that the speed Germany moved the ball and the risks the midfield took were far too low for the attack to shine as none of them really is a dribbler.I mean Müller, Gnabry, Havertz clearly hasn't worked out so well, they were all too similar and operating too much in the same spaces.

Wow a back 5, 2 DM's and 1 attacker who's been know to play at FB
Ridiculous starting XI when you see the talent on the bench
I'm currently torn between watching the game tonight or the grass grow on my front lawn.Pathetic selection from Southgate. 8 defensive players & a fairly defensive winger.
Well let's see shall we.fcking stupid from Southgate to match systems with Germany. When has England every played a 343?
Have the same feeling. 1-0 first half. Germany running against a wall with no ideas. Another quick break and 2-0. From there it might be even worse if Löw risk it all and send another 3 forwards onto the pitch.England will beat us I have no doubt about that. This is the team I fear most and England is a match-up nightmare for Germany. We beat Portugal only because they were so attacking and play right into our hands. You saw how Die Mannschaft massively struggled against defensive teams like France and Hungary. This will either be a England 1-0, 2-0, or a bore 0-0 and might go to penalties.Congrats England fans, the tournament is yours to lose now.
Im seriously considering going out for 9 holesI'm currently torn between watching the game tonight or the grass grow on my front lawn.
Such a difficult decision.
Did Werner even perform for Chelsea though? I don't recall him scoring a lot of goals. He has been underperforming everytime I see him. Havertz has been good but I don't see how we can score with such a defensive line-up from your side.Chelsea won the Champs League with Werner and Havertz and they were up against better sides than this England XI.
Glory?Im seriously considering going out for 9 holes
If england were used to playing that system it would be one thing...he'd have been better off going 352 as they know that system and it works well against the 3421Well let's see shall we.
I for one would be delighted with a 1-0.Southgate clearly thinking he's going to shithouse his way to a 1-0 win here. Imagine having all this attacking talent and then going and playing like Burnley.
