Paraguay FA reporting that they will play Turkey or Saudi Arabia on August 20. http://apf.cerocinco.net/noticia.php?id=581
Yes, but all in spanish: http://www.anfp.cl/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1373&Itemid=54 http://www.seleccionchilena.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=111 http://www.cooperativa.cl/p4_notici.../site/artic/20080625/pags/20080625223339.html
Thanks for the links buddy. ps: I saw the this friendly fixture finaly at Fifa.com . What channel would gonna show this game in Chile ? Chile channel 13 ?
Yes, both are free, but only www.canal13.cl has the rights for the NT games. For that reason, it collapses when the NT is playing.
Yes, www.channel13.cl is free. On august 20th, just click in "EN VIVO"("live" in spanish), and then you gotta choose Windows Media Player or Real Player...hopefully you could watch part of the game (but I think it'll collapse anyway). Maybe http://www.rojadirecta.com/ show the match, I'm not sure.
Thank You for the respond. So, lets get back to the pre game talk What is your probable line up and formation for this game from your view.
---------------------------BRAVO (R.SOCIEDAD)------------------------------- -----MEDEL (U. CATOLICA)----RIFFO (COLO-COLO)------JARA (COLO-COLO)----- ----------------------- MALDONADO (FENERBAHCE) --------------------------- ---DROGUETT (MONARCAS)-----------------------------VIDAL (LEVERKUSEN)--- ----------------------VALDIVIA (PALMEIRAS)---------------------------- --SANCHEZ (UDINESE)--SUAZO (MONTERREY)--BEAUSEJOUR (O'HIGGINS)-- ...we should have a solid centre across the pitch...and quality guys upfront...I'm just worried about out defenders...they are all technically gifted and can push up with the ball on their feet...however I'm worried about their ability to handle strong and fast paced strikers. RESERVES: PERIC PONCE (VELEZ SARSFIELD) CARMONA (O'HIGGINS) FERNANDEZ (VILLARREAL) JIMENEZ (INTER DE MILAN) GONZALEZ (BETIS) GAZALE (COLO-COLO) VILLANUEVA (AUDAX)
Si pero Vidal siempre jugo por la izquierda... asi se hizo conocido en el Colo Colo del Bichi Borgui... eso si, no tengo idea como lo hara en el Leverkusen. De cualquier manera puede jugar del lado izquierdo y del derecho.
Oh, I know, and in fact for Leverkusen he plays as a LDM, but considering Droguett most likely can't play on the right side....
Thanks for the formation and line up mate. For Turkey Nt, Turkish FA chairman died ''heart attack'' .there for the NT morale is almost (-) But, there is a much time for the this match up, so, I gues they will be ready for the match up. I hope we can see some new addition for the curret squad.. So this might be Turkish superb young talent aka Nuri Sahin probable gonna get call up. cant wait to see this wizard. hell of player. Caner Erkin ,another great young kid whom plays for u21 NT alonside Nuri... There is Ceyhun Gulselam for center back ,he is smilar to lucio...he plays for u21 too... there is Aydin Yilmaz,,the new Arda Turan or new CR7...... he plays for u21 too...Serdar Ozkan... smilar to Aydin&Arda style... there is few more, but this young great talents that i mentioned, they will definatly will get call up to senioir squad. Emre Belozoglu the Turkish maradona... he had injury at euro 2008 finals,only playd one game in the tournament,so i gues he will be ready for 2010 qualify games aswell friendly games. so as Turkish Cafu''uefa.com mentioned his name like that'' , he were injury thats why he didint played in euro2008 finals. He will be ready for from now on. Yildiray Basturk probable gonna get call back from Fatih Terim... Dont know what line up will Turkey Nt field... maybe like this; golie-----------------------volkan gokhan gonul'sabri'---------servet---------emre gungor---hakan balta ----hamit----------------aurelio'mehmet'------------emre'yildiray'---------- --------------tuncay-------------semih------arda------------ sub; aykut golie nuri ceyhun ugur ucar ugur boral ayhan aydin halil ersen gokdeniz caner etc.........
he can play anywhere along the back two lines. For Bielsa he's mostly played as a right back, but did play as the right midfielder agains Isreal (and did it very well). Bielsa hasn't found anyone in that position that he likes, and Vidal looks like the man so long as he's not needed in the back - which with Jara and Medel now competing with Riffo and Ponce and Fuentes for spots, he might not be). On the left Bielsa seems to have lost confidence in Droguett and has played Cereceda. But I am anxiously awaiting TELLO's return, because he is the left midfielder we need, or the left back in a line of 4.
Yes, Tello is definitely set for that spot on the left side. I mean, he's usually a starter in a European team, played Champions League last year... should be a good addition. Since our Turkish friend ventured with a lineup for his NT, maybe we can do likewise: -------------Bravo--------------- Riffo--------Ponce-----------Jara Vidal--------Medel----------Tello ------------Valdivia-------------- Sanchez-----Suazo-------Gonzales I know Riffo doesn't play there, but if there's someone that can take these kind of risks is Bielsa (ANYTHING to keep Alvarez and Fuentes off the team). Subs: G-Pinto G-Peric MF-Carmona MF-Maldonado MF-Fernandez MF-Cereceda MF-Droguett FW-Beausejour FW-Gazale FW-Orellana Any more options at the back? Like I said, Fuentes and Alvarez are not options to me anymore xD I'm putting Maldonado as a sub because as of now he's recovering from an injury and have no idea how fit he's going to be... besides, Medel's playing at an outstanding level. Anybody I'm forgetting?
For me, this would be the ideal line up. ---------Bravo--------- Medel---Ponce(Riffo,Jara)--Vidal Carmona-Maldonado-Tello --------Valdivia---------- Sanchez-Suazo-Bousejour To me, Maldonado has to play, and so does Tello. They give the national team valuable experience who also have been one of few to be 100% starters on their teams (when fit of course). Droguett hasnt convinced me so much, he is not bad, but there is better. Also, considering most of our goals received are from stupid errors or set pieces, we would not be risking so much with Vidal and Medel in the back. For the center back, to me, Ponce, Riffo and Jara are pretty much equal. However, I think we all agree about the three forwards. And sorry bout my crappy participation in the forum lately. Im still waiting for those stupid bastards Telefonica to come install internet at home.
TEllo as a striker? Even as a winger its a bit of a stretch. He's taylor made for the left back or left midfield spot.
Not as a striker, but getting minutes on the field in the left mid position because neither Droguett or Cereceda have been that strong.
