His natural position is more of a winger or deeper attacking mid. Hes not you stereotypical big #9 target man.

He creates movement and chips in goals, I find he's typically wasted as the primary attacking option. Bayern only played him as a central striker against fairly weak teams in the Bundesliga.

I like Muller on the right the best. The German midfield and back 4 are soooooo slow. Ronaldo could have a field day

Yeah playing Lahm in the midfield makes no sense.

You have some of the best midfield depth in the world so you move a world class RB to midfield and play a lesser player at RB.

Drop one of Boateng or Howedes, move Lahm back and play Schweinsteiger.

this panel is so clueless i really shouldn't watch the pre-game.

I got much more from you guys.. they haven't mentioned once about Germany or Muller or the false nine.. they're just rambling.

Anyone want to bet that Portugal scores off a set piece? That's been the German's achilles heel forever

I don't mind Ronaldo like I used to, the great play overpowered his annoyingness.

I don't care for either of these teams though.

Yeah Ronaldo isn't nearly as bad any more. Gotten rid of a lot of the theatrics as he has gotten older.

Khedira will have nightmares about that if they end up losing.
