    Germany are just far too slow. None of the back 4 are quick.

    This German defence would get torn apart by Messi or a Rashford type player.

    He's definitely lazy..

    Kroos as well. Well off the pace of an elite dictator or lazy here..

    He was the exact same in Europe for Madrid this season in the knockouts and final where he was awful..

    Kimmich..

    Actually think Sule should start for them. Fantastic player. Strong and quick...also get's forward..

    Goretzka, Brandt, Reus, Sule and Hector should be in this side in my opinion..

    Don’t think Kimmich is particularly pacey tbh. Especially compared to many other full backs.

    Reus should definitely be in it. Draxler and Muller on the wings is just taking any pace out of the wide areas.

    Mexico should be out of sight.

    I know it was only a friendly but I watched Germany against Saudi Arabia a week or so ago and they were as bad then as they are today. Only beat the Saudis 2-1 and could easily have been a draw.

    Something just feels off at the moment. Far too predictable.

    Salcedo at the back for Mexico, I thought that he's played for Mexico for absolute years and googled him to check what age he was and seen he's 24 thought I was going off my nut but he has the same name as the other guy I was thinking about lol

    Always thought he was pacey as he's a gung ho full back..

    Aye. Muller hasn't done a thing and I don't rate Draxler on a Reus level, or Brandt..

    The shape of this German team is shocking, Hummels and Boateng pressing in no mans land and getting done time and time again.

    I know he was involved in the goal but Chicarito has been so poor in the final third..

    Raul Jimenez is generally crap when starting but is a super sub. Always agitates things.

    Replacing Chicharito for Raul seems the obvious choice.

    Phil Neville listens to the other commentator pronouncing names correctly but still insists on calling Kroos "Tony Cruise" and Kimmich "Kimmitch".

    Appalling from Chicarito..

    Great run and clean through, yet stops and waits and waits for contact and dives..

    Absolutely embarrassing..

    Do you think it was a definite dive? Hummel's pulling his shoulder down, definitely went down to easy though
