Argentine NT: News, Stats & Players [R]

Nice volley at the end of that clip and look who's back saving it lool

 

Romero wouldnt save that one at club game but will pull that kind of save at major tournament. Willy is the opposite.

 

Whose jersey, is it Icardi?

 

Pretty sure it is Pedro Troglio.

 

It's Lo Celso's number..

 

Its Dybala's number... They are friends from their Juventus days.

 

Really pissed at Paredes’ move to Zenit. His agent is struggling to find him a top Euro league to move to cause of the price Zenit placed. Inter were front runners but now they’re after Vidal. Milan are interested but can’t afford him. Such a bone headed move he made a year ago.

 

Lautaro's praise has continued to grow ever since he has joined Inter. Many Inter supporters who were unfamiliar with him have jumped on the Lautaro train. They had concerns that he was another Gabigol, who was a major flop with Inter. Spalletti has talked about how he has listened to everything that he's been told to do on the pitch. I know it is only preseason but has made the transition quite effortlessly. I believe much has to do with Icardi taking him under his wing. Before even arriving to Inter, Icardi called up Lautaro and told him to call him if he needs anything.

In other news. Rojo is on the verge of joining Everton for.... (hold onto to your hats) 33 million Euros.... .... Rojo and RMF at the back for Everton...

In more comedic news... Nobody wants Fatso. Juve are willing to loan him out to Milan with an option to buy at the end of the season for him. I think it is fair to say that his career of playing at the highest level is over... I don't understand why he doesn't just go to the MLS. I am sure some team will give him a large salary.

 

Dortmund also seems to be interested in Higuain.

Btw. Ascacibar is slightly injured at the moment.

 

Rojo's goal against Nigeria is rated $30 million by EPL while his form and skill are the remaining $3


Whatever Higuain and Biglia are doing these days are just a passing wind.

Lautaro is a bit similar to Tevez and Aguero, I dont think player of that quality will have any trouble to settle in any team. Hopefully our future manager can get the best out of him.

I notice that our next friendly would be on first week of September, which mean only 5 weeks from now, and we've yet to announce the new manager...

 

Higuain could play with his brother in Columbus!

 

Thanks for the correction. I must’ve missed the move.

 

Pablo Aimar and Lionel Scaloni (currently coaching the Argentina U20 team) will take charge of the senior Argentina team for September's friendly matches against Guatamala and Colombia. https://t.co/WgGTKSiHO2

This looks to me as though Gareca is not going to manage the NT?

 

Aimar is going to be in line with a shot to be appointed permanent coach of the NT.

Not sure what to make of this.

 

Yeah I don't know. The guy is a clown.

 

Well, Gareca is apparently getting closer to renew his contract with Peru. Scaloni and Aimar... At least there is Aimar, a person who is really loved and respected by many. That is a positive. All I want to see are new faces, that is all. Just new faces.... is that so difficult?

As for a long-term manager, we just have to wait a little longer.

 

Aguero killed Caballero in Community shield game. Seeing Kun's form in recent time , I dont think its good idea to completely drop him from NT.

Argentina U20 lost to......India U20!

Meaningless game, but this should still not happen.

 

And India had 10 men. Apparently the first goal was a howler.

 

I don't think this is even news worthy, as was the case of beating Venezuela 4-0 a week earlier. These games are more or less scrimmages.
------

In pre-season action, Lautaro got himself another goal v Lyon.Three goals in six matches for him in pre-season. I caught a good portion the match and I have to say he was very good once again.

 

Do inter even need icardi at this point?

 

Lionel Scaloni (Argentina interim coach) "We don't have the squad list made, not even a small percentage of it. I don't think this is the time to call Messi."
