I think they are also missing a maestro like an Odegaard, griezman. The player who plays people open and takes up dangerous space.
Theoretically that's Muller, but he's getting a bit long in the tooth now.


It should be Goetze if Bayern would have let the kid develop at Dortmund instead of adding him to ride their bench.
Goetze also had serious health issue in 2017 that took a few years to get under control.

Let's see what the Spanish youth movement brings. A bit like Germany, they don't have a very established striker on the squad.

The first touch on that goal was insane. That was beautiful. Glad they got rewarded based on how fun they are to watch, and the fact that their jerseys are awesome.
^ This.
Thoroughly enjoyed Japan's play!

Wow... that Japan loss doesn't seems so bad now.

I predicted England would win this one in 2018, so I'm sticking with that.
Both of our September friendlies have had great first games. We created monsters.

And yeah… the stars seem to be aligning for England.
Yeah, I forgot Saudi was that other one.

I'm a fan of Germany but really enjoyed watching Japan. They played great, and yeah, their uniforms are fantastic.

Bit worried about the lack of physicality on the Spain squad. Sure their style of play is more technical than physical, but man they've got a lot of Smurf's on that team.

Already a missed yellow. That was a CONCACAF level foul and non call.

Spain control the pace of play so well. They play fast nothing is on they slow it down. Then they flip a switch and play fast.

And Spain is explaining in no uncertain terms to the Ticos that real soccer is very different than CONCACAF soccer.

Probably not. Their pathways (all of which involve beating Costa Rica):

1) Beat Spain and beat the hell out of Costa Rica to overcome GD against Japan.

2) Beat Spain and have Japan beat Spain as well.

3) Beat/tie Spain and have Japan crap the bed against Costa Rica.
