UEFA le envió a la AFA la propuesta formal para que el partido se dispute en Italia, el 27 de marzo. "Argentina aceptó la idea sin objeciones, salvo la fecha, sugiriendo el día 31 de marzo", This part is pure comedy, "no objections" except the f*cking date
So ridiculous. Bet they came up with the other date knowing it would be denied. Chiqui finding a way to kill it without taking the blame. Didn't get his bribe from Qatar so doesn't want the game at all.

We can point the blame to spain and point the fingers to UEFA but leave it to Tapia to be the most useless president in afa history by not having a two game nation back up and completely screwing over scaloni this window by not being able to use decision making skills or olive branch techniques because his fat head is so inflated
he would have been a hero if he was better positioned and saved the one goal that needed saving but he'll also be remember as the keeper who spend the last 3 years fighting with his own fans
As already been said, our success is all down to Scaloni and his staff. Jabba is nothing more than Grondona 2.0, but worst.
no grodona is worse because of how long he was in power and we achieved nothing with him for a long time, his legacy is like that of a terrible politician too long in power at the moment, tapia is just the most useless and probably dumbest, because gordo-ona never got caught until after he kicked the can so tapia sucks even at being a crook one thing gordono wasn't was useless, because he was so high ranked up in the fifa mafia, he move the needle with things and friendlies
Tapia already looked dumber than Grondona cause he cant even do all the sh!t stuff in the shadow. He literally looks like a clown bagging for attention in front of media, constantly hugging and taking pics with our players and spread it on social media. Recently a video of him hugging Alejandro Domínguez, all these while we as world champ cant even booked a matches.
What happened with Echeverri is almost criminal. He lost two crucial years of development because of that pointless transfer to Manchester City. Instead of letting him play and grow, they just collect young talents and ship them out on loans rather than actually developing them. For a player at that age, those years are essential. Glad that he is starting to get regular playing time so he can develop. Out of all our young guys, I still think he has the highest ceiling.
To be fair, he made the mistake of going to Leverkusen. But anyways, he has plenty of time to improve. His manager is impressed by his talent. I just hope he can put it together. 🇪🇸🧠 No dejen de leer estas declaraciones de Michel, entrenador de Girona, sobre la actualidad de Claudio Echeverri y la felicidad luego de conseguir su primer gol con el club:«Si lo vieran entrenar, verían que tiene un talento brutal.

Not sure how true this is and I would be really surprised if he returned. But what do you guys think? 🚨 BOMBAZO 🚨🇦🇷 Ángel Di María tiene grandes chances de ser convocado por Lionel Scaloni para la próxima fecha FIFA y podría regresar a la Selección Argentina antes del Mundial 2026. 🔜 Recordemos que se retiró de la Albiceleste luego de la Copa América 2024, pero le interesa… pic.twitter.com/kZfmDsACVT— Sebas Crackbol (@Crackbol10) March 16, 2026
We do need an actual winger who can dribble. If Scaloni is not willing to call up Soule, then calling Di Maria is probably the best alternative option. Would want him as a starter though if Messi plays. Put him on cotton wool if we reach the Semi or Final.
While I dont think we should revert back to ADM, it wouldnt be a disasterous thing either. He's physically fine and actually younger than Messi. Its not like he'd complain if he doesnt starts. He'd be Dybala type of super sub if he does play this WC.
I'm sorry, what? So, it is obvious that the Gallegos wanted to play their games at home. I am sure there was some money being lined up somewhere for their matches to be played on home soil. When we pushed back, they MAGICALLY had friendlies ready vs Serbia and Egypt, which they were originally going to play on the 30th in Doha. So, this explains a lot. https://www.marca.com/futbol/selecc...-acepta-invitacion-jugar-espana-31-marzo.html
As for ADM, I will be wondering who would lose their spot? I think with Fideo, we are a better side, we can hurt teams. But would somebody like Perrone or Panichelli lose their potential spot?
Exactly. Young players need to be managed correctly because they can make decisions against their own interest. He accepted the transfer to ManCity, and then how can he not agree to a loan. But he should've known better or someone should be helping kids make correct decisions
