Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the 3-5-2 formation at the beginning of the highlights for the German team. What is this, an ode to the 1990s by Loew?
An experiment, but the defensive midfield was so bad, and the defence so wide open that I think it will stay an experiment. 4 defenders is just momentarily standard
Well defiantly not all of Germany's best players playing, including goalie, but still good for Ukraine to get 3 goals, they could have easily won, they had some nice goals for fans though, Germany's were nice too, but Ukraines third goal was great goal, good stuff here in friendly
Did you guys see tymoschuks wonderful lay off for Kroos' goal! Bayern players having great awarness and chemistry even when they're on seperate teams lmao
I think 3 man defence is not the formation for Germany. I liked Lowe's 4-1-4-1 formation against Brazil when he used Bastian as our anchorman(he is probably the most important player in the team). This is my favorite formation for Germany because we might not be vulnerable to attacks and at the same time we could play good attacking football. For the other 4 spots, I would use Ozil, Kroos, Gotze & Mueller
Badstuber is a terrible defender, he was supposed to be the last man in defence but look at how slow he was running for the first goal, Bad recovery, nowhere to be found and he played shevy on-sight earlier on in the match, again 2nd goal thesame thing, terrible pace couldn't recover, He was always out of position...
How can you blame badstuber for the first 2 goals?
First goal was a mistake by badstuber.... But look at the last 2 german players.... Götze&özil.... I mean wtf? 2nd goal was a stupid ball from hummels and träsch was to slow for that other guy (60 meters without the ball ^^)
