La Roja

Muniesa? wtf!?!?!?!?!

thats a very good team, you should win this tournament

On paper I agree, Spain look the strongest. Too many players missing from the German team (or not being called up in first place). Don't know how strong the Dutch or Italians are this year. England look pretty decent, too.

Yeah it looks good. I would have taken Jese or Deulofeu over f*cking Tello personally. And I'm surprised there was no place for Ruben Pardo but hopefully the boys will have a good run.

Confederations Cup squad:

PORTEROS: 1 Casillas, 12 Valdés, 23 Reina
DEFENSAS: 17 Arbeloa, 19 Azpilicueta, 3 Piqué, 15 Ramos, 2 Albiol, 18 Jordi Alba, 5 Monreal
CENTROCAMPISTAS: 16 Busquets, 14 Alonso, 4 Javi Martínez, 8 Xavi, 20 Cazorla, 6 Iniesta
DELANTEROS: 13 Mata, 22 Navas, 11 Pedro, 10 Fábregas, 21 Silva, 7 Villa, 9 Torres

Would've been nice to seen Soldado there, but good otherwise

Yeah, I mean he is definitely putting up good numbers with Valencia but even at Torres' worst in Chelsea he was still scoring for the national team. And Del Bosque has a lot of loyalty for Villa. And then with the false nine I dont think he was ever going to take three out and out centre forwards.

many OFF Form players, or average players

still i hope you win it, no CONFED CUP winner has ever won the next WC

Xabi Alonso will miss the Confederation Cup due to his recent injury. Benat as his replacement.

Javi--busquets
-----xavi


Finallllllllllly

oh wow this midfield looks exciting NOT

but such a solid midfield is key for them, it helped them not conceding a single goal in the knockout stages

i wish LÖW would have the same thoughts


alonso out, this can be the kick start for martinez and his spain career, he has to perform NOW

USA v Spain is about to kick off in the U20 World Cup.

Team for Spain: Sotres, Manquillo, Derik, Puerto, Bernat, Saúl, Campaña, Deulofeu, Óliver, Suso y Jesé.

That's a tasty XI.

JESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jese and Deulofeu really have a great understanding between the two of them. Thankfully between Rosell and Pito Deulofeu will never make the full Barcelona team.

damn you jaime

goal for delou

And Jese again!

goal for jese, seems he is playing as the 9, kinda confirms what i was saying a few weeks back he is developing into more of a cf, so no place for paco

Suso is really playing sort of a false nine with Gerard and Jese as the wide forwards but there is a lot of interchanging of positions going on. Deulofeu is popping up on the left, Suso out on the right and Jese down the middle at times.

Bloody hell, have you ever done a google image search of false 9?

The fourth for Spain, 2nd for Gerard. Jese+Deulofeu......in a couple more years, f*cking hell.

imagine if Spain were to play a 4231 system in the future with jese-isco-delou as the three that would be insane

aka....the conveyor belt.

the French team should be band,look at the fucking size of them

i wouldn`t be too confident about jese and rodriguez

both could be perfect examples for players who will fail to reach the top level


serious, when was the last time spain produced a quality attacker? villa!!!

and a false 9, you need some kind of extra quality to make it in this position



youth attacking players are really hard to judge, there are plenty of players who never lived up the hype, while destroying every opponent in lower leagues

GERMANY GERMANY GERMANY!

Spain don't need a traditional number 9 when they're winning everything without one

they are already in DECLINE

there are no CB and Attackers coming, only small tiny midfielders



there youth is utterly brainwashed, everyone wants become the new iniesta or messi

where is the German team at the u20's?, a crap u21 team and no team at the u20 world cup, is the talent drying up?. lol

so much for drying out, our talents to good for this level
