Max Kruse is so massively under-rated, even within the bundesliga that he deserves a shout. He's just continued to shine at Gladbach and would be a perfect backup to reus on the left if we go with the Ozil false 9 like we did against ireland, or the best option up front if Loew goes back to the 4-2-3-1 once the pressure is on like he did against sweden, a game where he didn't have the courage to continue his experiment for fear of another 4-4, and in the process exposed our defense to 2 goals that would've been prevent by the 4-3-3-0. God damn it do I wish I could have any confidence in our coach.

At least your coach is not stuck in 1994 and playing 4-4-2

Yeah but you have like 50 strikers. When I do play FIFA it's a Union campaign where I got offered the colombia gig and the formations I ended up creating where just silly cause I used Cuadrado and Zuniga as wing backs and had to squeeze Rodriguez in a lot with Falcao still getting to prowl the middle and Muriel in a half right second striker spot it was ridiculous but so much fun to press the big teams with.

Lol except we leave Cuadrado and Muriel on the bench and start Teofilo Gutierrez and Macnelly Torres. The Colombian fans like it because it has gotten us success against CONMEBOL teams, but the European teams are a different story. Most top teams are midfield loaded and we can't afford to give up the midfield to accommodate a second striker.

For example, Germany would viciously abuse us using this line up. MacNelly is too slow and we depend on the DMS who are not that good to help create in the midfield. We would still lose using the 4-2-3-1 with James, Quintero, and Cuadrado, but at least we would make it a game. We would at very least test your defense and speed.
