Also had 91,000 in Texas for the other game.

 

Como play more open and freedom. He's given more space. He's far too close to the players here.

 

Incoming friendlies in US against Concacaf teams for the next 4 years.

Lautaro with another assist. Almada lucky enough not to put it wide lol

 

Perfect counter, 3-0. Almada with the tap in from De Paul and Messi

 

RDP and Mac securing their starting spots.

 

lol offside but Lautaro forced it so hard to Messi

 

Lautaro bro. Take the shot. Gunshy striker?

 

We've seen Enzo and Julian doing this aswell . Sometimes they couldnt stop being a fanboy.

Rulli's ball watching a dangerous cross .

 

Hopefully that one was only because it was a friendly and 3-0

 

Lautaro played well except for finishing. Not good for his confidence going into that cup.

 

He actually scored in previous 3 friendlies he played and had a multiple assists.

 

Start Barco over Almada with the Qatar midfield.

 

Best Barco, Messi

Good RDP, Enzo, Mac

Ok Flaco, Lautaro, Paz

Poor Simeone, Giay

Seeems if we go very defensive in mid, Exequiel will start over Paredes.

 

RDP-Enzo-Barco
-----Mac-------

Would be an interesting very solid mid.

 

Problem with Palacios is he offers nothing offensively like Paredes. I actually think if Messi somehow could starts from the bench, he could have more devastating impact.

 

Yeah but he doesn't make mistakes. Drops between centers, makes simple passes. Scaloni keeps playing him there. Must be considering him in this cautious role.

Paredes more likely to look for the longer pass, more likely to make mistakes as well. Not as good on the ball.

 

Basically a slightly upgraded Biglia. A healthy Paredes still more useful overall.

 

Downgraded. Biglia a better tackler, creative passer. Exequiel more legs.

 

Yes, this is what I have in mind. Enzo as 6 is so much better than mac, palacios, paredes or whoever.

 

Yea, at least the blame was on Messi on this one.



If Messi scored, Biglia would turned from mr.sideway passer into national hero.

 

A good example. Biglia's peak was 2 matches straight when he had like 10 tackles per match. More impact than Exequiel has ever had. Also he had nicer hair, not as good as Nico Paz or Ayala, but much better than Exequiel's.

 

Argentina hizo una obra de arte y Nico Gonzalez la terminó con un centro que la mando a la torres gemelas. https://t.co/rJO3ZZfQmT pic.twitter.com/jWzESqNSCs

If only Nico & Giu arent all about speed & stamina.

Lautaro looks like he wanted Almada's goal



On other notes, Messi will reach 200 caps for argentina in his first world cup 2026 game.

 

Are you talking about Redondo? Lmao biglia was TRASH. Had the mobility of a rock.
