I think Germany will take it. Argentina looked tired and had to play 120 mins. Germans have extra day of rest and didn't really break a sweat vs. Brazil.

 

[instinct]

I try to speak for my German fellas. I read many many comments about yesterday's match and the final vs Argentina and I have to agree with most of you. Germans are arrogant as fuck. They are talking about burying Argentina and that Messi won't do anything vs us.

This is the chance, Argentina has though I don't believe that the team thinks the same way as the rest of the Germans but it's a chance. It's only human that the players feel very confident after beating the host with 7-1 and we'll play this way. Confident and attacking. Messi won't have an easy time but he will get his spaces, 100%.

Boateng is ''Lord Choke''. He makes various brainfarts and this could cost us the title in the end, especially if Hummels won't get fit until Sunday.

I hope that we'll win the trophy but Messi lifting it would be great as well. It only can end great for me.

 

[DonAK]

Hummels is not fully fit?

I hope you start with Mertesacker and Boateng then.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Still don't like Löw.
So would not be too happy if Germany wins it. Want to see Leo lift the trophy.

He has some discomfort but Bierhoff said that they are confident that he'll be ready for Sunday. Germany have the best sport-doctor in the world. They are able to fix anything.

Lets hope Low does his usual stupid stuff at this stage and drops him then.

Germany will definitely win , I read from a 4chan thread that," germany wount even need lube ". I guess argentina have scrapped enough wins. I still feel bad for messi though cause he will be blamed for the loss.
Germany apart from being better , they would also want to win it more as they have been so close for the past decade.

nah. I can see Germany as favorites, but it's not going to be a "for certain win".

 

[Semi-Neutral]

Boateng and Khedira are the best players in their position, shouldn't have any trouble handling Messi, 7-0 Germany

 

[DonAK]

Khedira is actually quite good.

 

[putogusiluz8]

May the German's Hubris be their downfall. May the new coming of God, the Messiah, return Glory to Argentina...

 

[Jadentheman]

God I hate the German overrate that many people are doing.

Can only hope Messi finds his form and shows people that a once in lifetime player like he is can defeat the systematic machine Germans have created. Then I want them to over analyze where they went wrong doing so.

Not just the German fans, but foreign fans of Germany, equally arrogant, guaranteeing an easy win over Argentina.

I only hope Loew and his players are consumed by euphoria after beating Brazil yesterday and overconfidence over Argentina.

Argentina will be the underdogs who nobody thinks will win. I like that.

By the way, since Germany is the home team, Argentina will be wearing the blue away jersey. Not happy about that.

 

[Luftstalag14]

What I fear the most is that Loew will take a page from LvG's playbook in terms of NDJ shadowing Messi all game long, and Sabella and Messi not having a plan to react to that.
