Hopefully Lamela will get some minutes. I have heard a lot about him, but have yet to seen him play in a game besides U20. Ecuador is going to be under a lot of pressure to get a result and we can catch them on a counter. If we play like we did against Bolivia I am turning off the TV.

1-1. Wasn't even a free kick. Wankero dived. Fernandez to blame. Did not jump. Romero as I said likes to stick to his line did not even come for it. CABALLERO in ASAP.
Madness really. I hope Sabella has not just decided to settle on Romero as his first choice. He needs competition and Caballero is a better keeper. Be flexible Sabella. I will e-mail the AFA about it. Missed the last ten minutes thanks to the bleeding shockwave player and Firefox issues. 3-5-2 does require both fullbacks to press on and provide the extra attackers. Might be hard at altitude. Better to pack the midfield something like a 4-5-1.
