I dont feel like he had that good games vs Ghana and today vs England. I also dont see how Özil wouldnt block esp. Thiagos progress, as that would be his natural position to play in the Iniesta slot. Getting Özil instead of the rumored Mata would make sense, but getting Cesc is absolutely out...

You can ofc debate about Liverpool, but they seem to be wrecked currently, not CL qued etc. You can also debate about Chelsea. But generally i see only 3 clubs where a player would rather head for than to Bayern after their last years success and the very good perspectives they have under van...

Bigger clubs? You mean Barca, Real and Utd? Which are the only bigger clubs than Bayern worldwide. But well, maybe thats his plan indeed.

Was very unfocused during the first 30 minutes. Shaped a bit up afterwards and fortunatly scored.

Didnt watch the Serbia-Aussies game, but seeing them go out is a huge surprise, esp. in the way that happened. Losing to both Ghana and Australia and never earning the victory vs us makes that very well deserved though.

Thats not the full story. Schalke offered him a contract extension that he refused, demanding a higher salary (1M a year). Schalke themselves then refused to pay him that much money, also building up an image of Özil being a greedy, unthankful youngster in the press and thus putting an end to...

He is in my fantasy football team, so i dont mind him playing ;)

Will ANdres be fit for Wednesday?

I also dont see Özil to be able to shine as much as he does in our NT when Messi is on the same side.

Mainly true, although Klose scored a very important goal vs argentina in the 2006 quarters. And he was badly affected by the NTs sponsor adidas, forcing Klose to play in adidas shoes instead of his own nikes. Klose had problems with his feet and couldnt even play more than 60 minutes in the late...

right! :) I hope they dont take over the mentality of most teams so far, being glad about a draw in their first match and not risking anything. But i have a good feeling that they dare trying sth. The australians however are a tough team to play against and will try to keep us from getting rolling.

I dont believe in Jansen on the LB position (that never worked out during EC 2008 and he didnt play that position for in Hamburg), however Lahm there could really happen. He apparently prefers to play right now, but Löw has many more RB options than LB, so this can be decisive.

I feel like they will lose to Bayern in the quarters.

Kießling didnt seem very fortunate lately. He played a strong 1st season half, but the 2nd half was ok, nothing more. From his potential i dont see him above Gomez or Cacau. From his style he mostly resembles Cacau, as i see him as a deep-lying forward too. Although he makes up for a good target...

Im still really wondering if we should go 451 or 442. I think both formations are easily playable with our squad and it might come down to the opponent. General the 451 looked really really fluid in our 1st half vs Hungary on saturday. Khedira, Kroos, Özil, Trochoswki looked really vivid there...

Ye dunno. And while he is actually a CD, he can also act as backup DM (he did this quite often for Schalke). So we are getting really thin on DMs lately.

Winning la liga couldnt be harder than with him coaching RM ...

Its interesting that they finally agreed on it after the G20 declined this concept. I suppose its surely b/c of the rise of sheikh driven clubs like Man City and the unwillingness to give away their secure top4 spots (in england that should be true for Utd, Pool and Arsenal at least) when small...

Besides Milan, Juve, Utd and Chelsea now it is also said that RM, Liverpool and esp. Man City are interested in him. Hoeneß was also quoted with saying that his price will rise after the 31st of May. He is available for 40M if some club hands over a bank guarantee with that sum to Wolfsburg...

Its hard to say, and i actually stated that there is no indication for a dispute between Yaya and others of the team, esp. Xavi and Puyol. But when you know about how the Robinho transfer was vetoed by both of them apparently, it would be a surprise if Pep would choose Busquets over Yaya against...
