my team for Ghana:
schwarzer
wilk beauchamp neill chipp
culina valeri
emerton holeman (as much as I don't rate him) bresc
Kennedy

If we make 6 changes, it's just gonna happen again. Germany are quality, Ghana have a slow defence in mensah n pantsil so that being said, Ruka might start but who knows with this so called manager, we miss you GUUUUUUSSS!!!!

Best summary article I've come across.

Yeah its a real mystery what sort of time takes the pitch for the Ghana match

Culina needs to be made captain and positioned in the centre of midfield. Carney on the left back for some pace and Chipperfield ahead of him as a wing/striker. Beauchamp in for Neill, who has lost my respect for one. Holman can play DM instead of Grella. Jesus and Harry/Nikita at the front next. Will Pim do this OBVIOUS and NECESSARY IMPROVEMENT? Unlikely.

Well I thought putting Holman on for Grella worked. It allowed Culina to distribute the ball towards the attack, and Holman actually helped to orchestrate the attack. For once we were taking the game to Germany through build up play, and even Low - the manager - saw the change and was visibly worried... until Cahill's red card. Rukavystya did an ok job as well, one for the future. Jedinak, I didn't like.

btw, don't you mean 4-4-1 after Cahill's send off?

I stopped reading after Thomas Mueller was labeled a "full-back" alongside Philip Lahm...

its all in the past now. Yeah we got hammered. Ghana is a must win, if we draw then we have to beat Serbia. That's if Germany beat both Ghana and Serbia.

Have a weird feeling Ghana will draw with Germany as the germans will put a reserve side if they beat Serbia.

What do you think about the FourFourTwo article No More Mr Pragmatism?
ANALYSIS: Germany are known for their precision, but it was with a particular clinical edge that the three-time champions demolished a second-rate Socceroos side 4-0 here on Sunday night.

Have your say.
