1. Gomez is scoring goals
2. Germany are showing the maturity to win cagey encounters. The game vs Portugal was even more important in this respect. This kind of experience is needed against their arch nemesis Spain evil.
3. Hummels has added class to the defence and I salute Löw for all the courage he has shown in handing him a start. Never got a hint that Löw would do this! What a good news!
4. Provided things don't fall apart, this backline could be there for years, hope at least until 2014 WC. Let's hope the guys won't drop in form. And, c'on Schmelzer has to grow up to take Lahm's role at LB when it's due.
5. Shweinie is regrowing in form and lets hope it culminates with bagging the trophy.
The negatives are:
1. The dynamism and fluidity that has been typical of Germany since 2006 and perfected during the qualifiers has not emerged yet..in both matches it was seriously lacking.
2. The one touch tip-tap football in final third from Mueller-Ozil-Klose/Gomez has not started yet and that is worrying. That's what makes Germany's football exciting. Maybe Gomez is not the man to do this. Hopefully it kicks off against the Danes.
3. Ozil can score goals from inside 18 yards and yet seems does not want to. He always seems too intent on passing the ball to the team mate or getting past all opponents in front of him when shooting at goal seems to be the easier option. But, anyway he is the focal point of attack.
4. Klose now lacks match practice, Germany need him to score when Gomez goes missing in a one-off match.
5. Somehow, Poldi has so far contributed very little. Even more surprising is that Löw has not yet unleashed Götze, Reus and Schurelle when this has been the case.
Anyway, hope the players do not get carried away and take themselves as favorites. This is just the right time to fine tune, step up a gear and hit the peak. Fearsome opponents await in QF, SF and it's high time they won a trophy for all their talent and right things they have been doing in football.
So,in my opinion that isn't too bad of a negativity.
Schweinsteiger + Gomez = no chance for the Netherlands
RVP did the best he could and scored.
People should stop trying to find someone to blame and why the Netherlands played rubbish. They didn't play rubbish, Germany was just too good.
Oh, and the 3 people who voted Germany as rubbish probably don't know how to use the internet.
Personally,I think Gomez's second was superb and Loew should play more of Schurrle and Gotze. :)
Not pleased with Bert van Marwijk blaming entirely on the Dutch defence. As a coach he should be partly responsible. His decision to play more of Van Persie over Huntelaar particulary upsets Huntelaar and also Van de Vaart. And when the captain is upset with the coach,nothing good comes out of it.
So reflect on yourself,Bert van Marwijk instead of blaming entirely on your team. You've made tactical errors too.
