Yeah but he is not applying enough pressure on the French passers, which you need when you are playing a high line. Those failures have created the best chances for France so fartxj wrote:Khedira is the X-factor so far for Germany. He is arriving at unexpected positions and at times to unbalance France

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

This is where World Cup gets boring. Cautious and nothing to choose between the sides.

They are using Muller and Klose in a high press to avoid pushing the MFs too high...

Keshi will have shut them down.Ghana and Algeria out play them but poor officiating help them.

Re: FRANCE VS GERMANY (0-1) IST HALF ..Hummels
2 good teams in a match decided so far by the thinnest of margins. It really came down to Hummels overpowering Varane versus the French not converting their chances.
From a tactical point, the German midfield is able use their numbers to possess. But the French are also achieving their aim producing more numerous fast attacks using their forwards. Again, Germany converted and France didn't. Otherwise it seems to me the game plans are holding for both teams.
I'd put in Schurrle right away over Ozil. Ozil simply does nothing. Bringing in Goetze seems a mistake. He's not better than Ozil. Soft and just not incisive enough forward.
This game is still too close to call.
Cheers, Mate

He had an average first half... does not mean he won't come good in the second half.
BTW, some players just make better impact coming off the bench.

If Germany continue to execute the high line as they have so far, he might be the one to unbalance them...

Re: FRANCE VS GERMANY (0-1) [HT} Hummels
The more I watch this game the more I just think we need to get back to the drawing board.. Little things are holding the SE back from competing big time. The tactical game we don't have.
