Argentina vs South Korea

[diego]

higuain top scorer. all 3 of those he would have got lynched for missing.

higuain did play better than the opener at least, but aguero showed more in the time he played. I hope milito plays against greece, european teams we'll need more height in attack.

and I hope pastore gets a chance to play with messi against greece as well. I think he can be a better option than maxi/veron/di maria.

and we better pray samuel can be back for quarter finals at the latest.

I think vs Greece Maradona is going to put all the subs.

did you SEE the goals?? These goals do nothing to dispel the criticism on the ball. It still flies awkwardly, it still bounces like a ing basketball, etc.

I know........but that's how people who criticize it think. I heard people say it's going to be the lowest scoring world cup (might still be) because of the ball. It's stupid. If you get good contact, it will go on target (Mbia, Forlan, Podolski). It's been used in many tournaments and now that the world cup is here, people want to about it. Cech said he loved the ball. It probably swerves more + al ude doesn't help but it's not like they're kicking balloons out there

Evra blamed the ball for losing. Unbelievable.....that's the French CAPTAIN saying this..great leadership. Jabulani means celebrate.....I'd rather people do that than whine and try to taint the beautiful game.

[diego]

he better not, its a very short tournament and i'd rather he try and keep an iden y and build their rhythm. sure, play them less minutes, try out alternatives but it would be a mistake to play the B team

[resistanze]

+1 the best teams will win. The Jabulani will not decide the outcome of games. It's the ball, they're not changing it, why complain?

[Spurologist]

Every time there's more than 2 goals in a game you're going to say that? Did you see all the normal passes that went long beause of the ball?

I saw many long passes go on target.......maybe they switch the ball in and out during games

If Nigeria wins/ties now and we're through, I agree we'll be playing all subs.

And risk an injury or a red card? No way, rhythm

[MaNuMaNiAc]

And risk an injury or a red card? No way, rhythm

that has to be the thinest argument yet. Diego is right, this team hasn't had enough time to build chemistry on account of Maradona's obssessive complusive rearranging during the qualifiers. They needs playing time together.

Yeah, play them less minutes but don't play the B team.

[DAF86]

Please Samuel don't be hurt, you're our entire defense.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Please Samuel don't be hurt, you're our entire defense.

Pretty ing sad, don't you think?

[DAF86]

Yeah, play them less minutes but don't play the B team.

This isn't basketball, you can only make three changes.

[DAF86]

Pretty ing sad, don't you think?

I would put Otamendi vs Greece and see how he looks, I love the way he plays but he's too young/unexperienced.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Thanks for that, I'm always getting cofused with the two...

just one of the Argies goals were clean without having someway a referee or a Korean help them

[it's me]

Better be first of your group.... just saying.

[urunobili]

a referee?? wtf? When and where?

the third argie goal was in offside

[urunobili]

Better be first of your group.... just saying.

and you are...?

[DAF86]

Thanks for that, I'm always getting cofused with the two...

Yeah, I figured that out when you say that we should play our starters but play them less minutes.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

I don't know what you ing about though, with us being first and Uruguay playing like they are, you're not likely to meet us in the round of 16. Just like you wanted. You and the rest of the Uruguay squad.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Yeah, I figured that out when you say that we should play our starters but play them less minutes.

I'm talking about players like Messi, Mascherano, Tevez. I don't mean the entire team, but you knew that.

[DAF86]

Yep, I'm just ing around. Either way, I don't agree with that, if we play our starters and somebody gets hurt or gets a yellow or red I'm going to be ing pissed.

You're just butthurt Higuain > Forlan...

[urunobili]

You're just butthurt Higuain > Forlan...

We'll see how Maradona's Argentina reacts when they play a real team

We drew 0-0 with France the only real team so far not that I have any credentials, though TBH Argentina's defense is nothing to be scared about...
