Argentina vs Brazil WC qualifier

I've said it in another thread but Diego must go for experience in the games coming up. The time for bedding in the new guard was after the last WC (when the pressure was off), not just before the next one, and certainly not in massive pressure games such as this. Don't forget, Brasil will be even more highly motivated than usual, knowing Argentina are struggling to qualify.

The pressure of a home crowd, the eyes of the world watching, a top opponent in Brasil, a massive grudge match. This calls for experience. If you field youngsters with no big-game experience, you are flirting with disaster, and you are potentially harming their future prospects by destroying their confidence before they've even been given a chance to shine. New guys have to be nurtured carefully, and introduced prudently. Sadly, I doubt Diego has the wisdom required.

There will be changes of course. Diego changes a lot. Because he has no clear idea of what he's doing.

Will Cambiasso and Higuain get selected for the squad? Everyone knows they should.

If Diego doesn't identify his best players this could turn out to be a painful night. Battaglia, Gago and Jonas are not good enough. That should be painfully obvious to him by now.

Sure, Argentina may raise their game for Brasil. I hope so. However I see no rhyme or reason to Diego's policies and I think his presence is hindering this side's prospects, not enhancing them.

 

We wont get thrashed, 1-1 is my predicition.

 

We'll beat those malparidos, and we'll beat them again if we meet next year. Gosh I hate those mofos with a passion!

 

Messi and Tevez link well with one another but they need an additional striker with them.

 

With that formation, i fear for old Pupi.

 

Perhaps you will win, and perhaps you won't.

You hate us? We hate you too.

Have a nice night.

 

I actually think we are going to destroy them, honest.


I've got nothing further to comment, since I might make someone angry, with my insensitive comments. You know you got to watch what you say on this forum. Say Maradona is this, or you're too pessimistic, or state your opinion. Someone screams bloody f-ing murder. It's a joke, too bad no one has balls to be this staunch in real life.

 

Perhaps. You never know what happens in these types of games.

 

I'll tell you why: because we are BETTER than they are. Except for goalie and right-back, we have better players on every position in the field. We just need a coach to make us play the Argentine way and make us gel as a unit. But no matter our present state, a derby always brings the best in the players. We'll beat them coz we have better players (plus the bonus of being at home).

 

You never do know...by the way does anyone else wish we were in the Confederations Cup? I think Messi and co. would also relish the chance to pad their goal scoring stats against rubbish teams, and if anyone saw Kaka's goal for Brazil just not you know what I am talking about. Playing New Zealand would be fun too!

One thing i noticed about Brazil, is that they have players who put out better form for Brazil than for their club side, such as Robinho (mainly b/c he doesnt try and Man City), Luis Fabiono, Lucio, etc., while we constantly ask why do Messi, Aguero, etc. not play as well in the national shirt as they do with their clubs

 

With a game like Brazil vs Egypt today, we have a chance to destroy them in Argentina. Argentina are always tough at home.

Brazil - Egypt 3 -3. Leave it to Fifa refs to give Brazil a penalty shot late in the 2nd period to allow them to win the game. Only way Brazil can with is with the 11th man, Fifa refs.

How do you like my ignorant comments, I do it just with the best of them.


No but seriously, that game should have ended 3-3. It's always Brazil that gets favourable calls when they bitch about something. Because they are the "merengue", "Joga Bonito" , "Pele's boys", "Los Samba Kings". Looks like Kaka is use to winning games by have penalties awarded to him just like in Milan.

 

Oh the penalty was fair. Handball, the guy put his arm on the way.

But Brazil played with a dismal defense this time around. Argentina puede ganar.

 

Looked more like a above fore-arm to me, but that's Fifa rules, it considers that an 'hand'

If he had jumped further out it would have his head or chest.

 

Sorry man he does not speak for all of us OK, there are plenty of us on this site and around the world who don't share such ignorant views.

 

Aerez it is time for you to seriously grow up.

 

Matias, why is it that you! Only seem to have a problem with that comment? Why is it that the few people who answered, either overlooked it, or just gave me a somewhat decent conversation. Have I answered funny, sure, but so what: Why do you care? What's it matter to you? Ask yourself that Matias.

Matias, I am ignoring you, so just do the same to me, and that comment wasn't directed at you, but seriously, just don't bother commenting on my quotes please. Once again, you don't know what you are talking about.

I have a photographic memory, so these coments relate to my 'overall' comments I have been making for several months in these Argentina threads. ... ugh never mind, I don't know why I'm bothering explaining this to you. Just don't quote and answer me that's all.

 

Pele must be really good at sucking off FIFA.. I guess it has its perks.

 

Argentino argentino que amargado que te ves...

 

Of course, Matias... I was referring to him only although my language didn't make that clear.

 

We can beat them that's for sure. Even if Brazilian 'respect' surrounds biased refs, like the pro European Ref in the 1990 Final.

Oh wait, you are Brazillian. Well I thought were Argentinian. I didn't even notice. I thought you were one of us.

 

Yep, I'm Brazilian. Some of us are luckier than other.

PS: you and Matias should get a motel room the way you've been tussling back & forth.
