England don't look so bad after Germany's demolition of Argentina.

To be honest I thought the silky smooth skills of the Argentine team would see them beat off the German challenge.

I thought Germany looked great against England only because the English were so bad to begin with.

Turns out I'm wrong.

This was a hugely talented Argentine side and Germany under coachJoachim Loew (above) demolished them.

They were faster on the break, deadly around goal and have an engine room in midfield composed of young players who can run all day,

That must make them favorites now for the World Cup trophy.

Except for one thing. The one match suspension for Thomas Mueller, their brightest young star, could cost them dear in the semi-final.

But they seem so composed for the second youngest team in the tournament that it is doubtful if anyone can stop them.

It sure looks like "Deutschland Uber Alles."

I'm sure Germany would love to have Mueller available for the semis but it's pretty clear that they are better equipped than any other team still alive to overcome the loss of one scorer. Schweinsteiger will serve it up nicely to Klose, Podolski, Oezil, etc...
