---Messi------------Crespo--------------Tevez


Subs:Abondanzerri,Gonzalez,D.Milito,Coloccini,Demichelles,Aimar,Lucho,Maxi Rodriguez,G.Milito,Sergio Aguero,Cruz,Saviola.

There is the small matter of the captain mate, Juan Pablo Sorin

[BigSoccer Bot]

Hay escepticismo en los médicos que lo tratan, porque consideran que debiera ser operado ya y así se perdería el Mundial. Román prefiere esperar.

i omitted sorin bcoz i wanted to play with 2 defencive midfielder, but if we want sorin then we can have this line up

-------------------crespo------------tevez

------sorin-------riquelme------cambiasso------messi

-------Heinze----Samuel--------Ayala-------Zanetti

--------------------Leo Franco---------------------

Well, its not a case of us "wanting" sorin is it? Pekerman is quite certain to hand the armband to him and you havent included him in your initial list of players for the 23 man squad.

There are quite a few things wrong with what you have picked there, Pekky has never played Heinze as a fullback in a 4 man backline, dont think he will play him there. (Although thats where he plays for his club). So if Heinze is fit, one of the centrebacks u mentioned will have to make way (likely to be Samuel).

Here is what I expect if a 4 man defense is fielded:


**********************Pato***********************
Pupi***********Ayala **********Heinze/Samuel******* Sorin
***********Mascherano/Demichellis
*****************************Cambiasso***********
********************Riquelme***********************
Maxi/Messi*******************************Tevez
**********************Crespo**************************


We all tend to get carried away with how good Messi is, and I am a fan too, but you should remember the wealth of ammnition MAxi brings to the team, specially a high work rate means he helps the defence out as well, compared to Messi, which might get him the nod against teams like Ivory Coast

amen......................

Maxi is on fire at the moment no doubt about it, but in my humble opinion you would have to be crazy to leave Messi out of the starting line up in Germany. He has to start.

[shaf-argentina]

Tru, your opinion aint humble at all, its very knowledgebale Leon. But maybe not against a team like Ivory Coast, we will need midfielders who does tracking back, and atleast 4 of them, if you know what I mean.

[in da soup]

messi is too good to leave out, against any team.

[EL MONO MARIO]

Pato

Zannetti
Ayala
Henize (or Milito)
JP SORIN


Messi
Macherano
Riquelme
Lucho Gonzalez

Aguero
Crespo

[Leon12]

El Mono I would ove to see Aguero in the world cup squad, don't know if it will happen though.

My team:-

-------------Lux (anyone but Pato basically, even I would be a better bet)---


Zanneti------------Samuels----------Ayala--------------Heinz


-------------------Marshareno-------Riquelme-------Cambiasso



Messi----------------Crespo-----------------Tevez

i agree this but what about playing riquelme back crespo and front cambiasso and maschareano

[bsas]

So many spellings of poor old Mascherano's name: Maschareno, Macherano, Marshareno, Maschareano...;)

[Leon12]

bsas,

I never spell his name correctly, hasn't he got a simple nickname I could use instead? :rolleyes:

[Juan Luis Guerra]

Me parece que es un buen equipo este. Sin embargo, no entiendo porque no esta el Burrito en la banca auque sea para motivar a los pibes que estan empezando.

[Aguante Bielsa]

bsas,

Yeah, 'Jefecito'.


From what Pekerman is going to put on the field against Croatia, I'm guessing this is the definitive Argentine squad:

Abbondanzieri

Zanetti - Ayala - Heinze - Sorín

Mascherano - Cambiasso

Riquelme

Messi

Tévez - Crespo

It doesn't look THAT bad... :cool: Best team since Argentina '94, I dare say. Don't flame me.

If Messi can give us some width, this should be a dangerous team. But Zanetti and Sorin in this formation will have to stay back more than they did in Bielsa's system.

[shaf-argentina]

Pekky has actually announced he will go for an all out attack tommorow, and here is the lineup he has given to Ole

Pato, Coloccini, Burdisso, Samuel, Sorin, Demechelis, Cambiasso, Riquelme, Messi, Tevez, Crespo.

Romy apparently trained very well, and will start, but deffo not play 90 mins.
Should be fun :D

[efernandez9]

tv for this game in USA?

[Leon12]

Is anyone else worried about Pekky's fondness for Coloccini, or is it just me? :eek:
