I am staying very hydrated, actually. :( It's not that.
I'm feeling reasonably confident too, though I bounce between that and terrified that our string of awesomeness just can't keep being so awesome - life isn't that awesome! Haha. But no, it's an excellent point, and it's how I've consoled myself about the temporary loss of Mueller. I thought, well, we've lost Mueller, but we've still got Oezil (who's been rather quiet these last two games, but I think in Mueller's absence he could really step it up a notch), Schweini, Poldi, Miro, Khedira, and even Lahm and Boateng as playmakers who have been dangerous and effective on the attack. In short, we have a team that is working together towards a common goal. (Lol, goal) Spain on the other hand has been incredibly reliant on Villa to rescue them - can you imagine if Villa was suspended instead of Mueller? Ha!
So yes. This is absolutely a team that is gelling gorgeously and IF they keep playing like they are, they should have no problem against Spain. But Spain could surprise us, like you said - and that's what's worrying me!
