There are some funny things about Austria an Germany. Austria and Germany are like Canada and USA.

the most famous Austrians are Sissi and Mozart. Both were Germans

the most famous German is Adolf Hitler. He was Austrian.

I actually watch England atm as its the more interesting fixture but Germany do always play badly against Austria, its kinda mental blockage since we lost against them in cordoba decades ago, also many important players such as Özil and Müller are notorious slow starters. The inclusion of Reus has somehow disrupted the game on the left, despite him being the best player in Bundesliga . Anyway Our NT is not the same since 2010, at the euros they only came so far as all opponents were either crap or playing crap. Sadly, i have to confess, we Germans are actually not that good footballers as most people think we are. We lack pace on the flanks and have no world class striker

The main issue today seemed to be the double pivot, Khedira is have a terrible terrible game add to that the absence of Schweinstiger who is in my opinion your most valuable player.

usually its the other way round. I really rate Khedira, but not Schweinsteiger, he once was a decent mdifielder whose only problems being the little efficiency in tacklings for a no.6 and the little danger in front of goal for a no.8 Everything distinguishing him from mikel is hthat he sometimes also dares to dribble. He once was decent but after picking up an injury in 2011 he has been average

Shame Defoe never finished that, that's been his problem, he's lethal in front of goal and has a lot of pace and a good all round player but he's always lacked the right place right time for me, his movement isn't that great. That time though he was in the perfect place and scruffed the shot, how Cleverly missed though I'll never know.

I think Khedira is one of the best DMs in the world, I honestly do. But he's having a terrible match tonight. Gave the ball away almost every time he touched it.

Anyway the second half looks completely different. Germany 2-0 up.

I've always said Cleverly will be an average player, he's got nothing special about him. He didn't do much last season besides a few side passes people where buzzing about. And he was average for Wigan on loan. He's got nothing about him, but to only just judge it by this match is mental, he's always been like this. To be fair to him it's only his finishing what's been bad today nothing else to make note of.

And another average player is Welbeck, i think he's a bit better but he's nothing special for me, he has his moments but that's it.

We Germans are no better in winning international titles but our youth system saves us from seeing a player as Cleverley in our NT

Definitley with Mario Gotze in your team says it all.

I do think Chamberlain, Sturridge and Sterling have potential to be world class though, but Sterling still has a lot to prove however.

Edit: Omg how the fuck are we drawing with this team? In fact we were behind omg what the fuck.

Also haha England are loosing. See if Sturridge isn't taken on and Sterling is the world shall end.
