Rudy wins a PK. He seems more comfortable attacking than defending

raumdeuter:
Emre Can was a disaster on the right and I dont think he should ever play there again. So he is a poor comparison

I think Mustafi, Ginter and Durm sef can be better options on the right or try Kimmich there

Today Germany played a different tactic

3 central Rudiger-Hummels Mustafi

Rudy and hector acting as wing backs

A fluid midfield/attack of Ozil, Kroos Draxler Gotze Muller where everyone interchange but Gotze as the false 9

The position Rudy is playing today is as a wing back and might not be enough to assess his defensive ability when taking on a solid winger like Ronaldo, Griezman. And I doubt Germany would play such formation in the Euro with Boateng, Gundogan, Khedira back

That said Rudy and Hector impressed going forward

Spot on.

I started seeing the game around the 15th min and I noticed Rudiger appeared to be doing more of his business down the right side of the defence - he's been constantly on Insigne. I wasn't too sure if Rudy who's been impressive all night was really manning the RB but heck I'd rather have him there than Emre Phucking Can.

Definitely no way Loew would roll out this possession crazy formation against a stronger side. Chic2pimp's Azzurris lack the firepower to test Die Maanschaft.

Max Meyer? He's been quite impressive for Schalke this season and I feel he deserves a spot.

That formation there was no marker in midfield I doubt in a real game vs France Loew would leave Kroos to mark alone.

I doubt Max meyer can make it

Too many options ahead

Like Weigl, kimmich, Kramer Gundogan Kroos, khedira, Schweini, Muller Reus, Draxler, ozil, Gotze, Sane

Even dem Bellarabi Meyer Gomez, Volland still dey compete for slots

Full time

Just the tonic we needed after the England defeat. We quite found our rhythm after a slow start. Ozil, Muller and Draxler were pulling the strings whilst the wing-backs provided us good options upfield, the duo of Hector and Rudy were constant threats, one got a goal, the other recorded an assist.

Good over-all performance I say.

On the emboldened, I believe the idea was to starve the Italians of the ball, which I think worked out perfectly fine. Kroos was only orchestrating play from deep and had little defensive work to do. When we're off the ball, watch how the boys spring back to reject space on our half.

It's a freaking possession footie, and a direct counter of Conte's formation.

What a site!

The moment you realise that Iniesta only completed 73% of his passes at 2010 World Cup.

Kai. Xavi has done a lot for that nigga.

^^^^^Hmmm. You wan start again?

John Stones and Jagielka transferring their defensive uselessness from Everton to England.

Super Eagles yet to be paid bonuses yet Pinnick is flying his cronies to England for 'capacity building'

Aminu shuiabu was failing when I was in primary school. I don finish uni, born pikin, marry and Aminu is still there...still failing

The same old names KeshI, Siasia etc bringing their BS via the revolving door of nonsense.

I'm just annoyed that I actually allowed myself to believe that the likes of Ighalo, Iheanacho and co could be the catalyst for a revival

An interesting article

===================================================================================
Since the Premier League was formed in 1992, not a single English manager has won the title. A lesser known fact, however, is that the last Englishman to finish second in the top flight was Kevin Keegan at Newcastle United 20 years ago.

In the two decades following 'King Kev'’s infamous meltdown on live television, only two English bosses have even managed third position in the EPL: Roy Evans at Liverpool and a 70-year-old Sir Bobby Robson at Newcastle in 2003.


The state of English coaching at the highest level is quite frankly embarrassing. The FA and Premier League should be ashamed. There are currently only three English managers in the EPL; two of these at sides who are fighting relegation (Alan Pardew and Sam Allardyce). Neville’s dismissal by Valencia means there are now no English coaches in La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga. Even two of the last four England managers have been foreign.

Neville could be considered an exception in this respect. But [size=14pt]the English nation as a whole, to put it bluntly, lacks footballing intellect when compared to their rivals[/size].

The main reason for this is the notoriously inward-looking British press which would have you believe that the only football being played in the world is in the Premier League, the "best league in the world".

Tabbing who?

Shame no gree am.

I don't understand that guy at all. He saw his age mates Shearer, Scholes, Ferdinand, Redknapp and co quickly super glue their nyashes to the pundits couch where they can get paid handsomely to play armchair managers.

Dude yabbed and yabbed until he actually believed his own hype and decided that managing was actually as easy as pausing and rewinding clips on the studio ipad.

He neve once asked himself why so many failed managers like Shearer, Souness, Hoddle and co were dragging studio time with him every weekend during and after matches....well now he knows

How many Portuguese, French, German or any other countryman won the EPL.

Obviously no English manager has won the EPL because since 92 because the league was largely dominated by 4 clubs...all of whom could be argued have bought their way to success...and none of whom had an Englishman doing the buying

Wetin Ryan Giggs do.

As analysts Atimes its easy to sit down and claim one coach is shit or this and that. For University na me be the coach of my department and I know wetin my eye dey see

Boys no go come training but go insist say dem wan play, We go get training people like dadehmola dem go siddon for girls hostel, some of them for halftime go light cigar like nihilist and dey smoke by the time dem enter field after 6mins would be begging to be subbed out

Some go insists on the position they have to play, Some no go ever fall back to help in defence just stand for front putting hand for waist waiting for ball

You go even set formation finish person like Ibime with dem oversabi go dey tell you say na this formation we suppose play

You have to admit that aside competence there is a lot of luck that goes into coaching e.g I believe Benitez is a better tactician than many give him props for and he's better than coaching a relegation bound Newcastle

A German Juup Heyckenes and Bernd Schuster won La Liga. A Portuguese Jose Mourinho is current EPL champion to be succeded by an Italian Ranieri with Ancelotti another Italian having won in the past while a Frenchman Wenger has won multiple EPL titles

The CL trophies won by English teams were won by a Scot, A Spainard and another Italian Di Matteo

Since 1992 every major league has been dominated by no more than 4 teams yet they have multiple indigenous coaches who have won

Shame on England

Its toown early to be submitting asinine comments

Of the 4 teams that have won the league since 92, 2 of them have had very long term managers, the two new guys on the block brought marquee managers with pedigree.


An English manager hasn't won it simply because there hasn't been an English manager at any of those teams for the last 20 years.

A lot of this simply has to do with the sacking culture prevalent in England. All the big name foreign coaches in England today were given opportunities in their homelands to cut their teeth before moving to England to manage.

Ferguson managed in Scotland. Wenger managed in France. Jose Managed in Portugal. LVG managed in Holland.

But when in England, you get sacked before you even get the chance to hang your picture on the wall in your new office, how do you get the chance to cut your teeth?

How do you get the chance to gain the relevant experience to become a marquee manager yourself?

So I don't see how some idi0t somewhere can claim English managers don't have the knowledge, when none have been given the chance. I'm even more disappointed that you posted that rubbish here

Exactly!

Neville wey no even sabi speak Spanish. He probably just thought that he would go out there and show them the sky ipad with the blue counters and tell them to play like that.

He should have done it the Henry way...coaching under an experienced manager like Wenger, learning the trade small small.

Then again he must have remembered that Ferguson won the league with mediocre muppets like himself and John oshea in the team, and spoke in a Scottish burr so deep it must have sounded like a foreign accent...

So he brushed his rat tail moustache, bought a new ipad, and flew his camera man to the Valencia dressing room in search of glory...

Glory glory Gary fvking Neville

This is Bullshitt sorry

5 teams have won the league since 1992. What Pedigree did Mancini have before winning the league and what pedigree did Ranieiri have if he should win this league or if Pocchetino wins what pedigree would he have?

The sacking culture in England is no different than its in other leagues Since August when the league started EPL has fired/resigned 9 coaches, Italy has sacked/resigned 11, La Liga 9 coaches, So how is this asinine excuse a reason for the poverty of footballing and coaching talent in England

Didnt all these clubs try English coaches before sacking them? Aside Man Utd, tell us any EPL club who didnt have an English coach since 1992 yet they have found a way to sack them. Was it not Mark Hughes who failed the City project before they started hiring Mancini and co?

Did Chelsea not try Glenn Hoddle before dumping him for Gullit, Vialli and co? Did Liverpool not give several opportunities to Brendan Rodgers, Kevin Keegan etc

The NT nko? How come the local coaches are so useless that they have to appoint foreigners to coach even the NT
