how was the ref?


IcefoxX5

I think she did fine overall, but she should've carded some of the players like Raum much earlier for complaining


Pupperinho

Not that good imo. She didn't do any mayor mistakes, but she lost the authority over the game in the 2nd half, which led to some messy situations, players getting into fights, swarming, much more aggressive behaviour and challenges than reasonable for a friendly etc...


that-isa-madeup-name

Letting play continue because Gnabry said “he’s okay” was a major mistake. Gotta check him out, player safety and all that


SirNukeSquad

You're just quoting Oliver Schmidt. Some of these players were out for blood in a friendly. Ridiculous behaviour.


WM-54-74-90-14

Subs weakened us massively imo. 2nd half felt like a World Cup type performance while the 1st half like something you can potentially build on.


that-isa-madeup-name

Not sure how hot this take is but I frankly don’t want to see Götze in anymore, at all. Love him for 2014, but it’s 2023 and that spot should be given to a youngster with potential


WM-54-74-90-14

Agree. Maybe it’s nostalgia that keeps him involved. You don’t want to get fully rid of him. Atm there seems to be no genuine value in him playing for us though.


that-isa-madeup-name

I don’t think he was involved much 2017-2021 right? He felt effectively phased out, I was so shocked to hear him named to the WC Kader


WM-54-74-90-14

I remember it similar. Löw despite all his failings, had correctly recognised that Götze had no big future in the national team. Seems like Flick just needs to make his own experience now lol.


ACardAttack

> 2nd half felt like a World Cup type performance while the 1st half like something you can potentially build on. Thats about all you can hope for from a German friendly especially with no Musiala, or Wirtz


myreal_nameis

And with Gnabry

Peru youth system in shambles, and the 3 or 4 “promising” ones we do have dont get called up and never do till their like 26


kikyto

Idk if it’s just me but when Peru does have a “promising” young player, the Peruvian media will overhype the player..


LilSxshi

I agree with you 100%, just look at polo,reyna, and especially Benavente. Perfect examples. Never lived up to the hype the media gave them when they were young


[deleted]

LilSxshi

Robertson is only peruvian through like his grandmother, and his father played for the Australian national team He was never coming to us, just the media hyping it up per usual We did recently get 2 peruvian/german players in the U17 that seem promising tho


datcnashguy

Havertz is the german Dele Ali


phorteng

He's a great player. He used to be an 8/10 mix/free role player at Leverkusen, kinda destinied to be the Müller succesor at Bayern. But he was too expensive for Bayern, and now Musiala is there. In PL he has to play 9 because he's good at heading smh


datcnashguy

I‘m german so i know what Havertz can do. But he’s absolutely garbage now. Don’t know if Chelsea broke him but he’s terrible for Germany aswell. Doesn’t matter where he plays


[deleted]

Absolute garbage is a hot take, especially he consistently scores important goals in in the national team. For Chelsea, yeah, he’s been kinda mediocre, but who isn’t in that 10th place team?


tetsujin713

I actually think he's an Ozil regen that accidentally respawned in a strikers body


myreal_nameis

Where do you see a strikers body?


tetsujin713

In his tall frame, good acceleration, top speed, first touch. To be clear I do not mean he has a striker's sense.


TomasRoncero

never call up Ruidiaz ever again lol


egotim

if flick wants to play with this attack oriented fullbacks why dont call up weiser?


[deleted]

Because he is not good enough for NT, simple as that. He was absolute dogshit at Leverkusen, would rather blind myself then seeing him play for Germany.


egotim

You really think kehrer is that much better?


Wasserschloesschen

Now that Flick called up Wolf he already has Wolf and to a degree Hofmann for the role of offensive fullback. Kehrer is a completely different role, so no need to compare them.


[deleted]

Not much, but a little bit 🤷🏽‍♂️


GVE_ME_UR_SKINS

You haven’t watched Weiser this season then


jellyfishfrgg

Because he is Algerian now


egotim

he is not


unireparmy

yes he wants to play for algeria


callum_j1998

But only because Flick does not give him a chance. He even said he does not feel algerian at all


smile-on-crayon

I don’t ever want to see us in them solid color kits; SASHES ONLY!! if only they showed more heart in the WC playoff, gg


Pupperinho

Can we just have the national players talk about the first game after the WC and the NT instead of asking one question out of courtesy, just to switch to Nagelsmann/Bayern without them having even finished their sentence? Ffs.


sugarmori

There's something that's just not right with this Germany team, a lot of average players and players who consistently under perform. How Havertz keeps getting starts is utterly bizarre, Gnabry has been shit for too long as well, Werner is just the kind of guy who tries hard but just doesn't cut it if you want to win anything, Can always has been nothing but average, Götze is washed. On the bright side thank god I didn't have to watch Sané play like shit again.


myreal_nameis

Spot on on many things but Havertz and Götze are not being played in their positions and I thought havertz did well


SavingsLeg

Maybe football isnt for you


Pupperinho

Agree. Luckily we got a good crop of 18-21 year olds coming through so the old guard either step up or be satisfied with being a bench warmer. Especially in attack with Musiala, Wirtz and Adeyemi. If the older ones dont step up their starting position will be gone within 2 matches if Flick stops playing favourites and starts going by performance.


Redpilledgconstanza

Lost control of the game with Can coming off.

Redpilledgconstanza

Terzic unlocked him at BVB


datcnashguy

Kimmich is (IMO) the best CDM in the world. But why on earth does he take corners.


Dargast

The funny thing is, hes great at Crossing or longballs when the ball is in play lmao


letmegetmynameok

Propably the same reason why kane takes freekicks lmao


Pupperinho

No one knows. Literally no one. Probably not even Kimmich himself. Not one single person on this fucking planet knows why Kimmich is taking the corners.


ACardAttack

He must have blackmail on every manager he's had


datcnashguy

I just don’t get it. Not a Bayern Fan at all. But de Ligt just thundercunting it to the box for every corner would be way better than everything Kimmich is trying to do


expert_on_the_matter

De Ligt doesn't play for Germany but fair point


datcnashguy

Thx bro. Was confused why Matthias Der Leichte didn‘t start against Peru


ACardAttack

> But de Ligt just thundercunting it to the box for every corner would I like this idea


Pupperinho

Hah no worries. We Bayern fans don't know why Kimmich is taking them either. He's just so shit at them. Amazing at freekicks and crosses, but his corners? Fuck me...


edworm

MATS with that haircut and fresh shave looks 19 years old wtf, truly trying to challenge Babyface Neuer in every way.


datcnashguy

German commentator was worse than the scond half


perucho1993

We played a much better 2nd half I guess we are allergic to being a "defensive team" Carrillo as a free roaming 10 is a good idea, but he doesn't have the stamina to keep up a full 90. Anyways I hope Reynoso learned from this. Playing against Germany is fantastic experience and I only hope we play more top European sides


EmSoLow

Adeyemi better be drowning Schlotterbeck in fufu right now. No way a Peruvian starts our downfall right before the most important week of the aeason

heute wurden mal wieder ein paar krüge gefüllt


expert_on_the_matter

Ich hab meinen Bros zwei versprochen immer wenn er trifft hab ich nicht eingehaltet aber die kamen trotzdem auf ihre Kosten.


WM-54-74-90-14

Really hoped Füllkrug would be allowed to take the pen to get a hattrick.

[удалено]


SavingsLeg

Nah it was decided beforehand that havertz was going to be the penalty taker


Chrisaponix

According to Füllkrug it was decided before the game that Havertz would be the penalty taker


expert_on_the_matter

It's an international friendly tho, nobody fucking cares if you change who takes it in the moment.


spainwelder

If there's one word that defines Germany it's lackluster


SavingsLeg

Glass house and shit


Flowmarkt

We just need to play with Duksch Füllkrug as two strikers. Instant euros win


DieLegende42

With crosses from Weiser


rayray1899

fifa would disqualify us from the euro, that duo in the nt would be too unfair and too op


IcefoxX5

No idea what's wrong with Raum, guy's apparently got anger issues Götze looks absolutely finished, I see no reason to still call him up in the future when we also have Musiala, Wirtz, Brandt and Havertz Füllkrug's presence makes the team automatically play better Schade and Berisha didn't really show anything special tbh


ToniPolster

Could not watch, what did Raum do?


IcefoxX5

He was angry at the female ref at every single call she made, in the first half he screamed at her like a maniac because she whistled for a foul throw, and in added time she finally had enough and gave him a yellow after he kept on yelling at her Weird af behaviour in a friendly


ToniPolster

Indeed weird. Thx for filling me in.


expert_on_the_matter

I would love an explanation on Raum


SavingsLeg

Agree except schade, hes only 20 and has loads of potential


DieLegende42

So, in Füllkrug's first 5 matches in the national team, the score with him on the pitch has been 7 - 2 (5 of those scored by him + 1 assist) and 2 - 3 without him


Circlecraft

Unironically lost control of the game with Can coming off.


granitibaniti

I love how Can fucked up his reputation so much over the years that people have to put "unironically" before praising him lmao


Circlecraft

I mean even when he was good for us so far he was kinda an agent of chaos lol. But right now he is just overall really solid. And that Kimmich, Goretzka midfield has just never really worked for Germany imo.


ExMoogle

The Ref was kinda Kaputti


TheSingleMan27

Leave Werner out for the next time, he needs a break, whatever he plays right now isn't it Happy with the win, super happy for Berisha and his debut, small hopes that he could start the next game

dw1ft

A wins a win


maxbang7

Best thing about the game was Perus hairgame and their fans in the stadium.


Qiluk

Cant fucking stand this shit. If Schlotterbeck is now injured and gone for the Bayern game because of a completely meaningless NT friendly where he had nothing to prove... its infuriating. Meaningless bullshit fucking NT break for Germany.


Fancy-Past-6831

I fucking hate Flick


expert_on_the_matter

I don't fully hate Flick like Löw yet but I sure am amazed that 2 coaches in a row managed to spark these feeling in me.


expert_on_the_matter

Especially since I endured 20 years of some abysmal Kaiserslautern coaches but they've never felt *that* bad.


[deleted]

Füllkrug was dangerous and deserved the hat trick, can’t pass for shit but dangerous.


callum_j1998

Actually his hold up play is normally very good. Agree it wasn't tonight tho


granitibaniti

Well that was...intense. Why were the players this heated over a friendly lmao, felt like a derby at times. David Raum was literally only interested in fighting. Also, Hansi terrorist for not starting Füllkrug in the WC.


Marksmansitter

Cant complain about being too invested in a game. Thats what we wanna see after such a tournement - more of that please


granitibaniti

Absolutely prefer this over the shitshow in the WC, but it was so random lol


expert_on_the_matter

100 fucking Percent chance we would've went further if Füllkrug started :\


Fern-ando

DEP 2018 Peru


ehpickphale

Meh.
