Eliminatoria: Colombia vs Bolivia 10/17 Pre and Post Game Discussion

[CHICO13]

Let's put the bad taste of the Uruguay game behind us and look forward. Discuss...

[crzdcolombian]

on goltv it said u guys have 2 teams... one waiting for colombia in la paz and one who played Uruguay.

just wondering if its true and possibly formations

for us our main striker Falcao is in doubt and our Coach isnt the brightest guy in the world he has a 20 year old captain of a serie A team Udinese and he is going to bench him for a fing Colombian league player haha

any way good luck in this game.... hope if we lose both Pinto's ass is fired and if we get 6 points he should become president of colombia :)

[CHICO13]

That's what Sanchez says he wants to do which by all accounts isn't a very popular decison here on BigSoccer or back home in Bolivia. We have ALOT of work to do. We looked good in Copa America but regressed yesterday. We have so many issues to be adressed that I don't even know where to start.

[vivabolivar]

Ok, doenst looke like GolTV will show the game, does anyone know where they will show it, which channel in Bolivia?

[crzdcolombian]

u have to either ppv it for 30 or go on jumptv.com and watch it online

i paid 30 bucks for the 1st 4 games of qualifiers for colombia

[Che Matador]

they will show it delayed on Friday......I am at work so i cant watch it live... then again i dont want to watch it live as it makes me a nervous reck all the time.

[MrNiloBraun]

they will show it delayed on Friday..

Who'll show it delayed on friday???

We gotta win this game, Colombia looked good against Brazil (although they should have won) & we looked like the select team of St Agnes school for the deaf and blind, but a loss/tie and I think the noose officially goes around Sanchez' neck.

From all indications it looks like it'll be a completely overhauled team going up against Colombia. Moreno and Martins almost certainly will be riding on the bench and in their place will be Arce and either Cabrera/Sossa/Andaveris

My biggest concern wasn't our forwards, sure they were invisible, but that's more due to the fact they had no service and had to track back too far. What about our DEFENSE?? c'mon Sanchez, put 5 back there if you have to.

I wonder why, could the 5-0 a$$ kicking have anything to do with that:rolleyes:

i told myself the same thing after the loss. They had the NERVE to disrupt practice in order to demand a raise before the Uruguay game haha. They certainly dont deserve it!!

Thanks for the info Che, let's hope history repeats itself and we hand them another 4-0 loss in La Paz

[crzdcolombian]

i dont no about ur changes but Colombia is going to change 3-4 players is what Pinto is saying because of fatigue or injury. Rodagella who didnt play is injured and Grisales who came in in the 2nd half is also injured. Falcao has played 5 games in 2 weeks and looks like he wont play another one because he is injury prone and tired.

Pinto has said he wants to change a striker, the 2 wingbacks and 1 midfielder.

Colombia 4 Boliva(3-4 changes)
---------------Julio-------
Zuniga-Mosquera-Zapata-Arizala
--Amaya-Sanchez-Castrillion---
-------------Aldo------------
------Renteria- Perea

-He will def put Arizala at RB, Arizala isnt bad plays for Tolima and scored 2 goals last weekend... isnt a good defender tho but great on crosses. Was the starter during Copa America
-At LB he might put Vallejo also of Tolima but this guy sucks cant defend or cross... dont understand why he is on the NT and am prayin he doesnt play
- he will def change the AMC which at the moment is Ferriera... he might put in Aldo Ramierez of Athletico Nacional who is very much a 10 and more attacking minded
-at striker... i hope he doesnt take out falcao cause our 3 bench strikers all suck.
perea plays in france but is always a sub
rodagella sucked since he's been in mexico
and Valencia who plays for nacional cant dribble or score he is just super fast

so whats ur line up look like?

[Bolivianfuego]

Well for sure, Arce is going to start up front.

---------------------Arce--------------Andaveris-------------------


--------------------------Limberg Gutierrrez-------------------------

Campos ------------------------------------------------------Mojica


--------------------------------L. Reyes-----------------------------

G. Ribiero------------S. Amador-----------H.. Soliz--------R. Verduguez

-------------------------------H. Suarez-----------------------------



Edit: This is the projected Lineup for Wednesday. As stated by El deber.

Personally i do not like our backline, or Mojica, and Reyes there. This might be a reaalllllyyyyy bad result on wednesday if this is our lineup.

[dreyx2000]

At this point Sanchez, our coach, is announcing AT LEAST 8 changes. This is the probable lineup:

Sergio Galarza
Luis Gatti Ribeiro, Ronald Raldes, Carlos Tordoya y Nicolás Suárez
Leonel Reyes, Gualberto Mojica, Jaime Cardozo y Limberg Gutiérrez
Carlos Saucedo y Juan Carlos Arce

Im excited to see Ribeiro and Arce together...I think itll be interesting.....

[Bolivianfuego]

Yea man i hear that! Gatty was awsome with Bolivar when with botero! Arce plays similar to him, so it should be good as Gatty with Real Potosi was getting back to his old form!

the bolivan who plays for Cucuta is really really good, is he on the team? Think he has like 6 goals in our league and usually like scores in bundles but yea Arce is real good

I really cant wait for this game but a bit Nervous because Falcao is our golden boy right now our new Juan Pablo Angel and think he is getting benched :(. I like how we played against brasil but we need to score

[dsauna]

Yes Cabrera is not starting but he's definately going to play. We are all afraid of Falcao. I think it's going to be a good match.

[Bolivianfuego]

Yea falcao is real nice...

[MrPaisa]

Falcao descansa, viene como suplenet, posiblemente entra a jugar. However. Aldo Leo dubbed the "Colombian Riquelme" by the Argentine press is playing with Carmelo Valencia, a good striker that usually sets up great passes for goals.

These two guys play for Nacional in Medellin. Mdellin is 1,500 meters in altitude. Its not the 3,000+ of La Paz but its high, rather than a straight jump from sea level to la paz's altitude.

The team has also been training in Bogota, nested at around 2,400.

If your gonna make us feel the altitude, I'd only count with the about half of what others feel up there.

[dreyx2000]

http://www.eldeber.com.bo/2007/2007-10-16/vernotaaldia.php?id=071016144921

Totono Grisales is injured.....thats one of Colombia's most important players from what I hear.....he is out of the game.

[MrPaisa]

Actually I was wrong, they trained in Rionegro, which is at 2,160 meters in altitude. And Totono is not one of our most important players, although he is a good footballer, he isn't a die-hard key.

But I am hearing reports that Rodallega might start, and that guy sucks, so we might only have one good marksman, although Rodallega is super, super, super fast. He isn't terribly talented, but he is one of fastest players I've ever seen and he might prove valualbe when people are getting tired.

Aactually, I correct myself again, they played in bogota at 2,400, but trained in Rionegro, at 2,160 meters. Rodallega will not start and instead will Carmelo, the guy that plays in Medellin at 1,500 meters. Let's see what happens. Good luck guys!
