Squad Updates

Miro isn't playing on Friday against Ukraine because of tendinitis in his left knee. The current plan is for him to arrive in Hamburg on Saturday and play in the match against the Netherlands

No Miro... crap! I hope he'll be fit for the Netherlands. Reus, I'm so sorry, baby, but stay away from everyone else - that stomach bug could knock out half the team.

I read that Löw will try both Mesut and little Mario in midfield. Can't wait to see them play together

Yes, he plans to do both a 4-4-2 formation and play both Mesut and bb Mario at the same time. Not sure if he'll do both in one game or do each in a separate game. I can see the 4-4-2 formation in the game against Ukraine (with Cacau and Gomez) and then Mesut and bb Mario in the game against the Netherlands - it'll be interesting and I'm looking forward to it! Hopefully it works and isn't a disaster, lol >_>.

It would be incredibly nice if it would work out great. I'm totally looking forward to the game, it'll be interesting to see what works well and what not.

Should be Per, judging from past matches!

[ada_c_eliana]

Aw, no Miro? Well I guess it gives the younger ones an opportunity to play and all that. Though I had a terrifying nightmare that all the senior squad were injured and Mario Gotze was captain...

[olivia_y]

Well, the average age in the squad is now, what, under 12?

[ada_c_eliana]

LOL the team is ridiculously young. I can't believe 25-29 year old guys are the 'old-timers'. What would Italy's 2010WC squad have to say about this?

[postingwhore]

omg that is a terrifying nightmare indeed

[olivia_y]

But...but...but...NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh please please please be fit for the game against the Netherlands! Especially since he had to sit out sick last time they faced-off (and consequently missed out on a chance to break that record)!!!!

[postingwhore]

IKR. I'M SO GUTTED

[charingyu]

I'm so annoyed at this!! this curse on him.
I was looking forward to this so much since he's called up and there might be captain miro and now it's all gone.

and he missed a chance to break the ronaldo record because he was unfit for the match against Uruguay in the WC.

[olivia_y]

Oh yeah that's right, Uruguay. How did I get it confused with Netherlands? Sheesh.
