    Final should be good, would be impressive if Germany won two tournaments with b-squads.

    Think Chile will win this though.

    Was rooting for Chile until the Chileans started playing dirty, the better side won.

    LMAO. Winning two tournaments without even sending the best players. We have to invent a German word for this now.

    That was an a,axing run by the young Germans. Really well coached and disciplined. They did it as a team as opposed to having one brilliant talent. Pretty scary and the opposite of the previous young generation of Germans who always put in a scare but couldn't finish (until they got older, obviously).

    Chile would need 1 or 2 closers and athletic players who can head the ball.

    Everyone seemed undersized.

    Like they do at every Final they've been in for the last few years. Every time without fail they do some dirty crap in the final ...but to a select few it's just Chile playing hard. I'm not a fan.

    Good stuff by ze Germans tho, this is really a fantastic reign/renaissance whatever it is to observe. From the youth to the German B/A teams. All impressive.

    Yeah, they got a 40 men roster. That could be competitve 3 squads. You won't see everyone playing at the WC....... that is a little bananas and luxury to have.

    Who would have thought at the beginning that Löw is that much better than Klinsmann in terms of coaching not playing of course.
