one concern about this WC campaign is the germany style of play..we usually play based on how bayern munich play before this..a fast pace counter attack and good in the back..because germany national team core player usually play for bayern..

but now..bayern munich changing their style to more on the triangle passing tiki taka..

do you think we will see germany adapt to this play or stick with current play.

why not both - looking at the national team as a whole, they could benefit from both
can switch from counter-attack (CA) to Tiki-taka (TT) or vice versa, or both - fast paced tiki taka counter

but only bayern players play that way..the rest of the squad..play 'effective' football..that German used to play for the past few edition of WC and Euro..huhu

lets take midfield only from bayern...

Poland/Ireland would be the only threat of this group...But still considered pretty decent group for Germany

yap..possible to do that..bayern always stockpile german midfielders..hehehe

the most crucial position for German this edition of WC..is the striker..

we dont have a reliable WC striker..except for Klose..Gomez still injured if im not mistaken..

Stefan Kieβling, Max Kruse will be two names that might solve the striker problem..but both still unproven at the biggest stage.

or maybe Jogi can turn Podolski as top striker..but I prefer him as LW..huhu

top 2 each group qualify..so, i dont think the seeded teams (pot 1) will have problem.. maybe russia & greece have little bit to deal with...

am really looking forward to m.kruse to shine in WC, he's doing quite well at B. M'bach
Podolski should be at LW, i don't think he makes a good FW

hahaha...this is happen becoz the best striker in bundesliga is not german... same problem with spain...best striker in la liga is not spanish....that why they decide to take diego costa...

btw this is new away kit for wc....

Max Kruse deserves a call up. His performance this season quite consistent. I hope Patrick Hermann gets the nod too.

even for under-21 german dont have a outstanding prospect for national team striker..

can Thomas Muller play as striker?

can try play false 9 tactic like spain does...he should be fit the tactic...why not?

false 9 for me only suitable with tiki taka..because of the passing ability..not sure suit german or not..huhu
