Looks nice. I havent seen that one at my local store, or do you have to buy it online? I found this plain dna 3stripes shirt and the Messi t-shirt...

 

Didnt Mexico often trouble Brazil back then? Or the current Mexican team is beyond sh1t? I hope they'd face each other in round 16.

 

Adidas.Com released the kits.

 

Mexico in Houston, Inglewood and Glendale, AZ! I am shocked! Shocked I tell you!

What a load of crap.

 

Mexico should probably be in the playoff right now to make the CA. They’re at an all-time low.

 

Thiago Almada tells @ESPNArgentina he wants to go to Europe “now”:

“Yes, now in the upcoming transfer window. I’d like to go to any top league.”

Almada, 22, is MLS league-record signing.

Makes it even more mindboggling that they're seeded. Its pretty amazing Brazil has double digits of losses against the Mexican when it comes to head to head.

Its also weird that Mexico has beaten Brazil and Germany in major tournament, they even drew Germany in recent friendlies. Like Nigeria, it seems that Argentina has always been their nightmare.

I think Argentina has been in Copa final almost 30 times, so I guess its either a reaching a final or it would be count as a disaster.

 

Almada is too talented to be in MLS . He's in same age bracket as the likes of Julian and Enzo. He shouldnt waste anymore time.

 

According to this guy, Sevilla is planning on terminating the agreement with Nottingham Forest as Montiel has played very few games. At this rate, I could see Maffeo being ahead of Montiel, but we'll see

🚨Hay dos clubes que van detrás de Montiel, River Plate y Al Ittihad de Arabia Saudí. Ojito con el interés del Al Ittihad que pueden subir mucho la puja por Montiel...👀 https://t.co/aX7Z4Jvf8W

Had a look on the official adidas site, UK, it's sold out.

 

Maybe he got on that Fatso diet when he moved to Miami…

 

Messi put on weight, so it went to his face. We're not use to seeing him with a few extra pounds. However, the picture is a bit wierd because the likeness of messi isn't there.

 

Yea, he definetely looked alot more lean 2 years ago at Copa America.

Garnacho provided winning assist for MU against Chelsea with an accurate cross. Also directly involved in the first goal. He missed a good chance later on though, he shot went a bit wide.

Other notes, Molina is one of top assister in CL so far with 3 assists.

 

I think one of Garna’s biggest problem is that he tries too hard to be amazing every single time he touches the ball. He clearly has talent but he needs to pump the brakes. You do not need to rush things.

There are still a number of players at his age group or even younger that I rate ahead of him in terms of technical ability but Garna has the all the capabilities to become a very good player. He gives us that athleticism that we at times lack.

I have not watched enough United games to make a judgement since the sample size would be far too small(This season) but those United supporters who watch in game in and game out and thrilled about his turnaround over the last few weeks. He’s still young and he’ll hopefully be willing to learn from those around him.

The draw will be on FS1 for those who are in the US and want to watch.

 

Enough with the preamble... Get on with it...


Just when I thought it was embarrassing to have that mascot dance on stage now they have a bunch of dribblers on stage... The mid 2000s called and what their ideas back... Good grief...

 

I am glad the person who created the mascot for Copa América created a brand new and fresh idea!
