Just to open a thread for this, too.
Game 41 - Germany vs Slovakia
- Thread starter Blackwidow
- Start date
What do our resident Germans think of this match? Initially, I thought Germany should win this comfortably 2-0, 3-0 but after seeing France losing 0-1, it seems like nothing is certain in this Euro.
Such a meh game. Germany will be far too good for Slovakia.
Germany should win... but it is a knockout game...
2-1 Germany.
I remember I was extremely confident you guys would beat Algeria in the World Cup and I had a huge bet on it, absolutely gutted.
games like those taught us that anything can happen in a knockout game. Algeria seems to be the only team who troubled you guys the most in the World Cup and if it wasn't for Neur one man show, you guys could have been eliminated. Phew! I still think Germany should win this match. Would probably be a similar game to your opening match against Ukraine. Slovakia would sit back and counter fast with Hamsik so as long as you beat the midfield, you should win this.Hope that they loose. Better would be if an player from Buy€rn will get an injury. Sounds hard? It is like it is. And there are opportunities for Slowakia: Özil,Hector,Gomez,Draxler are so weak. I want more little teams go on in the tournament.
We lost 3-1 to them in May. I expect us to deliver a fitting answer.I remember I was extremely confident you guys would beat Algeria in the World Cup and I had a huge bet on it, absolutely gutted.
Didn't the Slovaks beat Germany 3-1 during the Euro warm ups?
Oh noes, not a single Dortmund tosser in the squad, *mimimimimimimimi*
Well, still quite comfortably 2-0 or 3-0. Thus far we've been the best team in the tournament by a country mile.
I find it great. Löw makes every player worse than before. Hope that he doesnt talk to Weigl too much. And it might be that all the Bayern players still suffer from the tournament and are not fit in the beginning of the season.Oh noes, not a single Dortmund tosser in the squad, *mimimimimimimimi*
We (England) came from behind to beat Germany at their backyard 3-2 but there's no way we are going to beat them if we meet them. I won't read too much into friendlies. Germany never take friendlies seriously anyway.
Starting 11 Germany: Neuer © - Hector, Hummels, Khedira, Özil, Draxler, Müller, Boateng, Kroos, Kimmich, Gomez
Ozil or Muller to play behind Gomez?
Germany should school them. I'll eat a hat if they lose.
Like after the World Cup...
Mario Gomez? Mate, what are you on about? He is one of your best players against Northern Ireland and I believe is currently your top scorer in this Euro.
I hope our coach has something up his sleeve because Germany is just far too good but nonetheless I'm proud of our players.
We should have won against Wales but at least we made it to the knockout stage.

It'll be Müller in the centre and Özil on the right. There's a lot of switching in positions, though. Özil will drift in a lot, Kimmich provides the width
You should have be careful with Algheria. Germany had difficulties with similar teams prior to the World Cup...I remember I was extremely confident you guys would beat Algeria in the World Cup and I had a huge bet on it, absolutely gutted.
Yes, with the exeption that some club bought Schweinsteiger.
@Reddevilboy: For me its a limited player.
Do we have any slovakians?
I found one
I don't think there is a team in the tournament that isn't represented on the caf
It will be interesting to see what Joachim Löw pulls out of his arse for this one.
That's a decent side and it should be enough to get past Slovakia. Not sure it's good enough to win the tournament though. At least Kimmich is at RB.
2:1 for today.
2:1 for today.

Got a free £5 bet with PaddyPower, any tips? I'm thinking Gotze first scorer at 6/1.
He's not starting.
Good job I didn't put that on then.He's been dropped.
Either an early German goal and a completely dominant 4:0 statement game or 1:0 GER after extra time.
Matthaus' accent is very different from from the other German accents I've ever heard
Also in german.
Romania?
"Dhis shouldnt surbrise you", cause he is from "Franggen"
I am not convinced at all that Germany will find it easy. Slovakia know how to park the bus.
So am I, yet I sound NOTHING like Loddar Maddäus. Noone does, really.
When the people talk like this I always ask myself which Dortmund player should play. Güngogan and Reus are injured - and Schmelzer has shown that he is not national team material. He had enough tries and I do not know one match in which he was better than Hector is.Oh noes, not a single Dortmund tosser in the squad, *mimimimimimimimi*
