Will it be another 5-1? I doubt it...
Germany are looking quite a strong team at the moment, although Ballack will be out for this game through injury I believe...
What do you people think of McLaren's squad? Hargreaves is injured which is shit, although I'm glad he's included Alan Smith, hopefully he'll play some of the game.
Interesting that he's brought Sol Campbell back aswell.
This is hard for me, as I've always had a soft spot for German international football, having German blood and spending alot of time over there with friends and family... however, I'm still English.
If this was being played in Munich, I reckon Germany would be the winners, but it's being played Wembly so I guess we'll have to wait and see...

Yeah but probably to Germany.
I'm with Kermit on this one. Probably either 1-1 or more likely a 0-0 and McClown will go on and on about the positives that he can draw from the result despite the team not showing half the desire or guts that you'd get if you threw on a team made up entirely of players from League 1. It's all following an increasingly disturbing pattern.
James
Brown---Terry---Richards---A.Cole
SWP----Lampard--Carrick---Barry
Bent---Johnson
As for Germany, as long as Jens Lehmann's in goal I don't mind.
I agree.
I feel sorry for Lehmann, he is a good keeper, but he has made some seriously bad and unforgivable fuck ups in the last week.
BRING BACK OLIVER KHAN!! He's still kicking ass for Bayern Munich.
Torsten Frings and Borowski (Ballack's replacement man) are also absent from Germany's squad, along with striker Lukas Podolski who won German player of the year. So Germany aren't playing their best side either. Should be interesting.
Ive not seen him on TV, but in Football Manager Podolski is really really good. As for the game I dont really care....Wales v Bulgaria anyone? :thumb:
Yeah Podolski has been stunning both for Bayern Munich and his country, so it's good for England that he's out.
Germany will be playing Miro Klose up front still and Bayern's Schweinsteiger will do some damage down the right wing. Germany's defence is also looking pretty solid aswell with Lahm, Mertsesacker, Metzelder (who has been signed to Real Madrid) and Jansen.
That good?
Germany win, for sure.
Doubt it, both are reported to be out...
Particularly as there will be no Hargreaves, Bent, Campbell, Gerrard ...
Not looking good for McClaren, tbh.
You're right...
What people are forgetting is that although England are lacking many key players...so are Germany.
I reckon it's gonna be pretty even.
I reckon 2-1 to England ... but maybe thats me being biased, hopefully and patriotic (sp?)
If I'm being honest I reckon 1-0 to Germany.
"coz im'a brava innit"
You're right , aslong as no other goals are scored. Jebus england are pap
Bring it on
ÜBER ALLES IN DER WELT!
As I said before, I have a soft spot for German international football, so I'm secretly very happy with this result (yeah fuck off, I know I'm un-patriotic!)
Brilliant result for Germany! England were missing quite a few key players, but Germany were missing some FAR MORE important players, and to win with that squad, away in Wembley, was some result! :thumb:
Fucking brilliant goal from Pander in his international debut for Germany!!!!
Worrying performances from Lehmann for Arsenal, although he did pull off a few good saves.
Robinson fucked up big time with that goal by Kuranyi. However I still think he deserves a starting place in the team to face Israel, before James.
I hate being right
Yup
Yup. Shame it had to come shortly after Robinson's shocker. Incredible shot.
Nope. Robinson hasn't had to fight for his place in a while and thus has become, I think, complacent.
However, why McClown stuck Richards, the best England player on the pitch in my opinion, in the centre when Ferdinand came off is quite beyond me. He was causing havoc down the wing so to then stick him in the centre is pure idiocy.
Some positives but same old problems yet again.
Look at it as insurance
