Before there were rumors of a argentina-spain friendly march 1st, it's now confirmed as Argentina-Croatia March 1, (today's Ole).

Yes there Croatia on 1 March but many other teams around the world are also playing on 29 March so i wouldn't be surprised to see another friendly in Europe arranged around then.

From what I heard, Argentina-Croatia will be played at the St-Jakob stadium in Basel, Switzerland. This will have the advantage to be at the border of Germany, so I guess they can go for some "reconnaissance" trip there...

you mean peker might actually get to see where we are playing and he can help choose our hotels and training facilities?
of course his choice will be limited as our three group rivals' managers have already made the trip.

Yes, if that was not done already. I have just read an article from Bilardo where he says that choosing the best facilities (near training grounds) is a very important thing to help players relax and only concentrate on the matches.

I heard a NT was renting out a castle. (Possibly Brazil if I can remember correctly) That's class if you ask me.
