Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

If that's the case, then let's just use Bilardo. He's a master tactician and already has taken Argentina to two WC finals. Why even bother going outside of the country?

What would probably do MUCH better for Diego, would be to get him a communications coach. Someone that can truly help him get his message across.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Well that's the whole point no? Maradona and Bilardo aren't getting along. So far I haven't seen any of Bilardo in the way the team has played. I'm pretty sure he hasn't had a say in anything.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Ricardo Gareca is also a good tactician.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

I actually think that you are wrong. Bilardo's hand was seen ever so clearly in the WCQ's. With Diego and Bilardo, everything is smoke and mirrors, I wouldn't be surprised if their fight is nothing but a smoke screen.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Well said! Besides Bianchi knows where to get the meat for the ASADO!

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

More or less, he's still learning, he has some lacks. The match against Liga in the Sudamericana made it clear in my opinion.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Anyone have any information about the rumour that Argentina (local players) will play against New Zealand on 20 December in Mendoza or Mar Del Plata?

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Looks like it was just that, a rumour. I wonder if the match against the Czech Republic is going to be the same.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Nope the only match that will be played in December will be on 22nd against Catalonia.

According FIFA's sanction Maradona cannot attend the World Cup's draw. AFA may appeal the sanction though it may not be in time since only 10 days left before the draw. This would be on the least the third World Cup in a row the coach of Argentina doesn't attend the draw because Bielsa and Pekerman didn't attend for 2002 and 2006 respectively, however i don't remember if Passarella attended the draw for France '98, though in the cases of Bielsa and Pekerman they didn't intend to attend in first place.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Yes he was very impressive last two years. By the way, isn't this guy the same who was injured against France on WC under 21 in Argentina?

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Hi All,

Just was wondering what will be our best Team for the world cup.

GoalKeepers
1. Romero ( Best Keeper we have got, should be a starter)
2. Anjudar (Good Back Up)
3. Carrizo (Not good on crosses, has to improve a lot)

BackUp
1.Franco (His is still in A.Madrid) Looked impressive , havent heard from him of late.
2.Cejas
3.Pato

With the kind of the goalies we have got Romerio looks like the only quality keeper we have of right now. Can we also track the performances of the other keepers listed here. So that we can see who is in good form.

Defenders
1. Samuel +(Wall, rock solid, good header) - (Slow, can concede penalites) will be def on my team
2. Demichelis(, good tackler,Solid) -(Slow) - Def on plane to WC
3. Garay + (Good in set pices, good tackler) - Should on plane to WC, he is good on Set pices,
4. Gonzalo Rodriguez + (Fast, nice tackles) - Getting Carded often, seems like his form is dipped of late. One of the best right backs, should be in plane for WC
5. Insua- Impressive display of late, looks promising in attack also, poor in heading and can sometimes be caught out of position
6. Zanetti - Good def and can play the role of def libero just as Sorin played for us last WC. But he is old and he was ripped of last night. But should be on his way to his last WC
7. Monzon- Solid can be good back up has he can play in various positions
8. Pareja- Solid then Monzon bt is injury prone
9. Otamendi- Still not impressed me much,dont deserve WC spot but hope he improves his form
10.Papa- Should be called in when some one is injured
11.Fazio- Tall and has good header but his injury prone
12. Heinze- Plays his heart out but he his past his prime and will surely leak goals if he is started. I think he should go only if some one is injured
13. Cata Diaz- Solid but again is too old.
14. Ansaldi- Shud be starter, looks good, has impressed me of late
15. Zabaleta- Think he is overrated, hasnt impressed me so far.
16. Coloccini- Def no
17. Gaby Milito- If Fit can be looked into.

So i think the follow players has got good chances.

1. Samuel
2. Demichelis
3. Zanetti
4. Garay
5. Gonzalo
6. Monzon
7. Pareja
8. Ansaldi
9. Insua

I think 7 of these 9 players shd go to the WC.

Midfielders

1. Mascherano ( Yes, no comments)
2. Cambiasso ( Can be good or very average, he can at best be a CM not DM)
3. Banega ( I think of what i have seen him has matured a lot and surely should start in the NT no doubts he is the answer to the puzzle)
4. Biglia ( Good player but unfortunaely no one has looked at him, consistent always get rating of 7) but will not go to SA 2010 but can be a backup in case of injury
5. Bolatti ( Good but i thini Baenga has more potenial then him)
6. Riquelme(Def should go the WC, he can control the game and alwasy a great threat in Set Pieces, he controls the game so well, he is a slower Iniesta, we really need him, there is no one to replace Riquelme)
7. Aimar( Can complement Riquelme very well, i would like to see Riquelme-Aimar combo in the midfiled)
8. Veron( Should go if Riquelme doenst but he is not so dangerous in set pices and cannot provide the killer pass like wat Riquelme provides)
9. D' Alessandro( Has talent i will personally like him to be in wc, he is fast good in set pices and can really combine well with Messi and Co, if riquelme is not going to the WC, i think Alessandro should be there, he can be the Replacement for Riquelme)
10. Maxi Morlez ( really his having good season, but is too short and fragile and hasnt played in europe)
11. Piatti( Looked Good but should be a backup)
12. Lucho ( But never performs for NT)
13. Pastore ( should see how he performs for Palermo this season)

1.Mascherano
2.Banega
3.Riquelme
4.Aimar
5.D'Alessandro
6.Cambiasso

Wingers

1. Messi ( No comments worlds best player)
2. Di Maria ( Will be one of the gr8 player)
3. Maxi (His form will play a big factor to be in WC)
4. Perotti ( gr8 potenial but surely shouldgo to wc)
5. Delgado ( having a good season with Lyon, can be outsider)
6. Jonas ( yes for his work rate but should be starter, but can also good in defence)
7. Leto ( tall and fast, outisder)
8. Defederico( Need to keep tab of him)

Forwards

1. Aguero ( should go to WC)
2. Saviola *- Of late is playing really well, always plays well for NT, should go to WC
3. Milito - he is the best poacher playing for argentina right now so should go
4. Lisandro- should go if Higuia is injured
5. Higuain- should go for WC
6. Zarate- Should go, he is one of hte few players(ARG) who can score from outsid the box and also his good in set pieces
7. Tevez - for his workrate should go
8. Lavessi - should be a back up but really good player will prefer him in the team
9. Dominguez - Impressive but should compete with Milito and Higuian.
10. Palermo


Guys the formation i would like to see is


against defensive minded team


Romero



Garay Samuel Ansaldi




Mascherano



Aimar Riquelme


Messi Di Maria

Saviola/Aguero

Zarate/Milito


Against Good Teams


Romero



Garay /Gonzalo Samuel/Demichelis Ansaldi


Zanetti/ Insua ( Def Libero like Sorin in last WC)


Mascherano



Banega


Riquelme

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

I suspect you were very tired when you wrote that?

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Franco isn't at Atletico Madrid anymore. He's at Galatasaray.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Why do you say that?Is there anything wrong with my post?

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Rumours of England v Arg friendly are circulating.
Possibly pre world cup at wembley.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

Unbelieveable! I was thinking the very same thing when I saw the post about the rumor. lol

What's it going to take for European teams to return to South America to play competitive matches?

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

i know portugal went to play in brazil last year and got whipped 6-2. i suppose these mighty European teams are afraid of that happening to them.

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

a european team has never won a world cup outside of europe. the next two world cups will be outside of europe. you would think they will want to adapt.

does argentina get a bigger payday for playing in europe though? i suspect that may have something to do with it? even though most of players play in europe and it is convenient during the season, it would make sense for everyone before a world cup

 

Re: Argentine NT News, Stats, Players 2009-2010

We played a game in Qatar vs. Brazil and about 15 players pulled out of our squad.
Most of them played the next league game. Any friendly that involves a long flight means we get messed around by the clubs with pull outs. We havent been to South America since the 80s.

This game is just a rumour ,but the rumours are usually true.
Probably in Wembley or maybe neutral in Europe.
