The coach wants to score so he plays 3 strikers with townsend. So no one in that attacking four will create for each other since they all want to score.

Lol rooney misses from point blank range

yup.

You have to give to England that they got real athleticism and desire to their play, but lack any kind of cohesion in attack. Welbeck is so selfish and wasteful, he should only be used for counter attacking football IMO.

I gotta feeling Lampard will save England's ass once again tonight

is germany playin ozil as their false nine?

Yes. Funny stuff from Löw. I actually rather have Schürrle or Kruse in striking role than Özil. He often drops deep to create play and needs a striker to finish his chanes.

You see, it is not all bright with Germany either. We might have an abundance of midfield talent, but when Klose and Gomez, who are not exactly worldclass themselves, are unavailable we got no even half decent striker apart from Reus who is rather a second striker. Even England has more depth in that position than us. Also Schürrle is the only German player with pace. It hurts, but that is probably why we won't win the world cup, even though we got everything else that is needed.

If there is anyone to pull them out of tough games, its lamps.

But hodgson is a mediocre coach with this tactic. If he played a pure winger that crosses like milner or walcot or lennon, they would have someone in the attack to feed the ball to people.

England do miss the lack of a CAM playing the role of creating chances. Townsend has no clue once he reaches the edge of the box. The 3 strikers up front have to create their own chances, it seems.

england are lacking a CAM, 2 wingers, 1 GK and atleast 1 strong CB. rest is fine. :)

England have got lucky with Poland having nothing to play for.

They will not want to get injured and miss playing time for their club's, so they will surrender the 50/50's and with that control of the game.
