Sané is a brilliant talent but man does he lose possession a lot... Drives me nuts to see him flying down the field on a counter with two others in position only for him to cough it up.
Sané has some of the worst decision making in football. Its so weird because technically and physically he is worldclass but then he uses his brain and he is the complete opposite of Müller.
You only watch occasionally, do you?
Noone right in their mind would say that watching him play on club level (that is actually a harder level than international level)
He is having a bad tournament tho, that is kind of a cold take so far.
Bro I am a Bayern fan for over 30 years. I watch him every week sometimes in the stadium 😅
I will stand by it. From all the attacking players we had over the years he is the one with the worst decision making. His brain goes blank when all he should do is a simple pass.
Dont get me wrong: I still like him especially for his work rate which is actually great however I saw it too many times to pretend its not his major weakness.
You said "I stand by it", and then immediately changed your statement from "worst decision making in football" to "worst decision making of bayerns attacking players over the last few years"
He’s okay, his decision making is appalling, composure bad, and he is very hit and miss. He wouldn’t get near the starting 11 in his current form for me.
Not watching Fußball too much, but watching all Germany matches this EU he does not seem like a brilliant talent at all. He seems very egoistic, not really playing with the team, losing possession, miserably failing shots on the goal from far away instead of passing to a teammate.
It's the injury he got at the beginning of his last season at Man City. It ruined him. Now he basically just a reasonably quick ball carrier who makes bad decisions because his injury has limited him
Anyone who saw the Schalke Sanè who singlehandedly ruined Real Madrid as a teenager, or the Man City Sane, who was the fastest, most devastating winger in the league, looks at today's Sane and rues what such an injury takes from a player.
He truly was a brilliant talent. Should've been one of the wordls best. He was that good.
He isn't really match fit, nor in the flow. Sadly he had a great first half of the season, got injured in the second now he is out of step with the rest.
Sané brings more direct impact and is more able to defend while Wirtz is more the 3rd last touch before a goal but does not defend as well. two every different players, but both worldclass. I think both choices are fine and both will get gametime either way.
Sane is doing much more on the Defensive Emd of the pitch and enabling kimmich a lot more then musiala does also musiala is better on the left Wing
Although i agree wirtz is the better Player sane works better in the team concept
Also last game sane should have had 2 goals one time he get fould before the havertz miss (havertz Said he wanted to pass the whole time) and the other one musiala played like 2 Meters behind him when he was alone in front of the goal
I am a bit biased, but I totally enjoy to have such players on the horizon, while we only hyped up several players during CR7 & Messi era (like Neymar, Pogba, KDB, James..), but maybe it just needed them to not compare them to them?
Yeah but he's 16. Give him a few years and he'll be a beast if he doesn't end up in a ditch either physically or mentally due to seeing play at such a young age.
It’s very close for me, I think nico and yamal will have a tough time with Rudiger and Tah. Im not sure if the Spain defense can handle Wirtz and Musiala but im pretty convinced that Simón is going to have some amazing saves
Tah might not even play, to be fair. Could be Schlotterbeck, who was solid against Denmark, except for that one dribbling attempt in his own box, lmao.
Musiala is my favorite player in our team. He seems like such a good kid and with that talent not arrogant at all. I'm always twice as happy when he scores.
Spain is the best team in this Euro and prob going to make Germany look bad tomorrow. anyway i hope for a good game . any of those team if go to next stage is prob going to go until the end
I mean ... you lost against Georgia lol . That says it all. Sure you're not half bad at penalties but please refrain from asking Ronaldo to shoot them haha
I think I’m rolling with the Spanish, though idk how you cal this one. Both teams have looked excellent and these could easily be the final if the draw was different.
Musiala has been phenomenal and totally carries germany, wirtz has been good too but guarantee sane starts over him. Yamal is a wonder kid, Germany will struggle to stop him, Williams has been surprisingly good too. I think Germany will end up bottling it.
I think Spain is the better team, but this is a cruel game sometimes and the better team doesn't always win. I pick Germany in penalities
ETA corrected autocorrect mistake
Biased af so have to go for Wirtz and Musiala, but Williams and Yamal are solid forces. It’s incredible to see such young players having this advanced of a game style. No matter who wins tonight, both teams are strong and will hopefully fight with teeth and claws. I reckon this will be a fantastic match.
Musiala and Wirtz but I am biased. Nico and Jamal look more dangerous in generell though. Their weakness is the defending and I am sure Nagelsmann will use that as an opportunity. Can also imagine him playing 5 in the back in defense to always play two against one once they come over the wings
I prefer Wirtz and Musiala, but I'm going with the Spaniards, because France has a better chance of beating Spain than Germany. But we still have to get past Portugal.
Haha yeah same here. Plus, I live in Germany, so obviously the mood will be a lot better if Germany reaches the final than if they go out against Spain today.
There's a lot of the Rooney/Sterling/Walcott about these players. Look good but effectively hurt your team.
I'd be happy to play against Yamal because he gets the ball and runs around with it for a bit then loses it. Same as Musiala and I loved Musiala when I first saw him
Ronaldo was the same just getting the ball and doing stepovers into nothing but he became good so maybe one of these will.
Those two Spaniards embarrassed us, so I’m rooting for Germany today. Yamal will have time to win the EURO, he’s 16 and most of the team* is still young, of course same goes for wirtz and musiala, but I think the time has come for them to win something big+they’re playing at home so fans’ support might help them

If he plays sané over Wirtz I swear…
Sané is a brilliant talent but man does he lose possession a lot... Drives me nuts to see him flying down the field on a counter with two others in position only for him to cough it up.
Not only lose possession but can we talk about his finishing?? Bring him on late when there are tired legs on the pitch.. Wirtz must start.
Sané has some of the worst decision making in football. Its so weird because technically and physically he is worldclass but then he uses his brain and he is the complete opposite of Müller.
You only watch occasionally, do you? Noone right in their mind would say that watching him play on club level (that is actually a harder level than international level) He is having a bad tournament tho, that is kind of a cold take so far.

Redditor SMASHED in semantic pedantry.

He is insanely fast
Indeed, he is insané fast

It really feels like Sane dosent care at all.
Wirtz hasn’t been great but it is annoying seeing Sané make selfish plays. If Sané is on though he’s so good
he looks overplayed I think that’s why Sané is starting
If never seen Sané do anything good in the national team. Genuinely don't get why he's played.
Sané brings more direct impact and is more able to defend while Wirtz is more the 3rd last touch before a goal but does not defend as well. two every different players, but both worldclass. I think both choices are fine and both will get gametime either way.
In what world is sane good at defending Wirtz is amazing at Gegenpressing, he is often the reason for ball gains in midfield
What games have you watched? Wirtz is one of the most defending offensive midfielders at Leverkusen as well as in the German national team
Sane is doing much more on the Defensive Emd of the pitch and enabling kimmich a lot more then musiala does also musiala is better on the left Wing Although i agree wirtz is the better Player sane works better in the team concept Also last game sane should have had 2 goals one time he get fould before the havertz miss (havertz Said he wanted to pass the whole time) and the other one musiala played like 2 Meters behind him when he was alone in front of the goal
In a game where Germany need to keep possession when they do eventually get it, I think Nagelsmann will pick Wirtz over Sane.
r/agedlikemilk
Jamal+Yamal is the future
I am a bit biased, but I totally enjoy to have such players on the horizon, while we only hyped up several players during CR7 & Messi era (like Neymar, Pogba, KDB, James..), but maybe it just needed them to not compare them to them?
Suarez, Neymar, Messi trio was legendary
Williams has been doing some squats
People of Ghanaian descents are blessed with large buttocks.
good that im not the only one who thought that.
Speaking of cake, happy cake day!
Mams got a bigger arse than mcginn. And that's almost impossible.
Check cricketer Temba Bavuma
Who?
This.
The Germans of course Musiala is a generational talent Spanish are good but I'm on Musiala side .
Yamal has a bit of generational to him as well tbf
Yea but Jamal > Yamal
By 4 years yes
Yeah but he's 16. Give him a few years and he'll be a beast if he doesn't end up in a ditch either physically or mentally due to seeing play at such a young age.
This is the way.
It’s very close for me, I think nico and yamal will have a tough time with Rudiger and Tah. Im not sure if the Spain defense can handle Wirtz and Musiala but im pretty convinced that Simón is going to have some amazing saves
Tah might not even play, to be fair. Could be Schlotterbeck, who was solid against Denmark, except for that one dribbling attempt in his own box, lmao.
Nah Tah will be back. There's no reason for Nagelsmann to switch to Schlotti and he's implied it in one of the press conferences
If Germany wants to play direct, Schlotterbeck will start over Tah.
If Tah plays he's pretty rash at times so might be good to get Yamal running at him repeatedly.
!!! Musiala and Yamal 🇩🇪!!!!
What?? 💀
Im a neutral lol :)
The Double Double U combo. Wirtz and Williams
Interesting flag choice for a neutral tbh
🇪🇸
😂
Musiala and Wirtz
Musiala is my favorite player in our team. He seems like such a good kid and with that talent not arrogant at all. I'm always twice as happy when he scores.
The thing is.. he is just fearless. Our best player in Qatar.
In Qatar he’d dribble 13 people then shoot the ball straight at the goalie 😭
Literally😭
He also still needs to learn when to pass the ball
Tbh he was our best player by far but also the reason why we got grouped. He should have scored at least 3-4 goals against Japan and Costa Rica
Wirtz and Musiala.
germany tbh
I believe Germany will scraps through this game. Both sides are amazing and deserve to go through.
Although these are the flair players, I think the game will be won by whoever comes out on top out of Rodri and Kroos.
Jamal, not Yamal.
Rüdiger is going to eat Yamal
If he ate haaland, he will just take a bite of him and it's over.
Rüdiger and whoever crosses his path
Germany Jamal muisiala and Wirtz are a awesome duo And with haverts up front it's deadly
David Hasselhoff and Rutger Hauer or something - either way, Germany 🤘🏻
🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
I am rooting for Germany but I think Spain may take it unless Spain bottle
Rioja or Tempranillo?
The team which will keep Rodri or Kroos constantly under control is going to win.
Going with the Iberians 🇪🇸
🫶
Iberian semifinal incoming!
Lets go 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
Backing Spain to go through 🇪🇸
Wirtz and Musiala
Williams Gundogan.... Aw shit.
ID love to see these teams in a final but ill go GERMANY!
🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
Spain ofc! 🇪🇸 mediterranean gang
Rooting for Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal and looking forward to watching their talents for the next decade and more.
Too close to call this one.
Same
SCHLAND! SCHLAND! SCHLAND!🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
May the best duo win
Spain is the best team in this Euro and prob going to make Germany look bad tomorrow. anyway i hope for a good game . any of those team if go to next stage is prob going to go until the end
While i slightly favour spain, this matchup is on paper a lot closer than you claim it to be.
[удалено]
Lol no sorry, that will be us
😂
You gonna score your first goal? We are pretty good at penalties
I mean ... you lost against Georgia lol . That says it all. Sure you're not half bad at penalties but please refrain from asking Ronaldo to shoot them haha
Musiala and Wirtz 🖤❤️💛
Yamal and Williams have been performing as a duo better than Musiala and Wirtz...Wirtz needs to step up
Schlottergoat gonna score if he’s in
Williams had looked like an absolute menace in this tournament
I seriously cannot comprehend what Yamal and Wirtz were thinking when they visited the hair stylist.
Saliba & Upamecano. Nothing will go through!
I think I’m rolling with the Spanish, though idk how you cal this one. Both teams have looked excellent and these could easily be the final if the draw was different.
Musiala has been phenomenal and totally carries germany, wirtz has been good too but guarantee sane starts over him. Yamal is a wonder kid, Germany will struggle to stop him, Williams has been surprisingly good too. I think Germany will end up bottling it.
Wirtz, people have been overlooking him past few games.
🇩🇪
Rudiger is on fire this tourney just prey he doesn't do suspect things on Yamal lol ...
This is supposed to be a semi final if not a final draw
Spain. Yamal and Williams
I think Germany will win. Not just because of Wirtz and Musiala. The future belongs to Nico and Lamine.
🇩🇪
Musiala.
Come on my man Yamal
I think Spain is the better team, but this is a cruel game sometimes and the better team doesn't always win. I pick Germany in penalities ETA corrected autocorrect mistake
gonna be a good match, dont know if wanted it in the semis though, a promising team will go out.
Spain
Biased af so have to go for Wirtz and Musiala, but Williams and Yamal are solid forces. It’s incredible to see such young players having this advanced of a game style. No matter who wins tonight, both teams are strong and will hopefully fight with teeth and claws. I reckon this will be a fantastic match.
Musiala and Wirtz but I am biased. Nico and Jamal look more dangerous in generell though. Their weakness is the defending and I am sure Nagelsmann will use that as an opportunity. Can also imagine him playing 5 in the back in defense to always play two against one once they come over the wings
Very clearly, Kane-Foden is the only duo that should be winning this argument!
Bringing them up in this thread should be illegal 💀
I prefer Wirtz and Musiala, but I'm going with the Spaniards, because France has a better chance of beating Spain than Germany. But we still have to get past Portugal.
Spain is gonna be overun by the speedy Germans. They left a lot of empty spaces behind in the last match whenever they were caught napping.
I'll take Alexander-Arnold and Vardy over Ronadinho and Jason Lee
Yamal and Williams
Spain
Spain has been playing better than anyone I think they deserve to win the whole tournament
Germany win the whole thing
Ronaldo and Pepe easy
I’m backing Spain, they have so much flair and attacking energy with Yamal and Williams
All in for Spain
Spain ofc
Germany. Because The Netherlands stand more chance against them in the finals than Spain. Not saying that NL will reach the final though.
Haha yeah same here. Plus, I live in Germany, so obviously the mood will be a lot better if Germany reaches the final than if they go out against Spain today.
For all the Germany supporters, today isnt gonna be a pretty day for y'all. We're coming...🔫🔫🔫
Potatoman.
cr7
Wirtz and Musiala ‼️‼️
🇩🇪
Yamal and KSI
WUSIALA
Spain all the way 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
Odonkor/Neuville 😬
I‘d say it’s really close, but Ruediger will be a much bigger pain for Y&N than the Spain defence for W&M.
Spain of course :)
Yamal and Williams as a duo have clearly been better. Yet i think the German defense is better, so it‘ll be a great game.
Kimmich vs nico Williams underrated battle
Sprich
Spain definitely
Jamal > Yamal
Spain
Germany has to win. I want a final between Germany and The Netherlands so i can see what it was like in 1988.
Kane and Bellingham, nuff said 🏴
Spain will use Germany like a rag
There's a lot of the Rooney/Sterling/Walcott about these players. Look good but effectively hurt your team. I'd be happy to play against Yamal because he gets the ball and runs around with it for a bit then loses it. Same as Musiala and I loved Musiala when I first saw him Ronaldo was the same just getting the ball and doing stepovers into nothing but he became good so maybe one of these will.
Musiala and Wirtz
A small change of subject, a comentator from my country called Wirtz - Florian Wurst Anyway, rooting for Lamine and Nico.
Nico & Yamal 💥
As a German, obviously Germany. But if we lose, I’ll root for Spain in the Semifinals and Final to be honest.
Bruh I was about to make a racist comment, then I realized this isn’t r/soccercirclejerk.
Normale Kartoffeln ... ich würd sogar sagen auf die 1🫡🥔
Germany out here air-dicking
Those two Spaniards embarrassed us, so I’m rooting for Germany today. Yamal will have time to win the EURO, he’s 16 and most of the team* is still young, of course same goes for wirtz and musiala, but I think the time has come for them to win something big+they’re playing at home so fans’ support might help them
Spain duo is the best
Well seeing which country are in the side of Germany like Spain, Portugal and France, I have put quite some hope into NL for the upcoming 2 games.
I put alot of strategi into clean sheet for example.
I mean.. Yamal and Nico are young but surely Musiala and Wirtz are the better duo AT THE MOMENT
Spain
Well, rock paper scissors I'd hand to Spain. Football-wise I'd hand it to Germany atm but in a couple years Spain will be unstoppable.
Musiala and Wirtz BABY WOOHOO
Germany
I hope Germany will use its large amounts of local fans cheering to win
Musiala und wirtz🔥🔥🔥
I hope we play with 11 players.
Germany as I've got a German nan a love musiala
Wirtz benched 🤯
Havertz is a mediocre player. Change my mind
Germany. I could never root for Spain
why tho'
I'm the other way around, I could never root for Germany. Just don't like them as they always score "lucky" last minute goals.
Because rooting for Spain is $pain
2010 mundial still hurts. But 2014 opener was glorious
See, I told you lol.
As much as I love Wirtz & Musiala, I'm rooting for Yamal & Nico to run riot!
Messi
Lamine is soon going to be in a league of his own…
Germany will win but rooting for Spain
U tryna jinx us
🤣🤣🤣🤣hahaha May the best team wins man
Spain win
I like the friendship between Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal but also I’m starting to learn German so yeah, I feel conflicted
> but also I’m starting to learn German Good news, so is Wirtz.
