so when did it become about ElNono thoughts? It's good to know Messi has won the world cup with Argetina. If you hate him for antics then OK but Ronaldo is class even if he hasn't performed for Portugal. Sorry if it's hard to take but awards don't lie. Just relax and enjoy his class![]()
Man, that, I'm too deep down the rabbit hole now. As soon as I take him out, he'll score 2, and I ing know it
I'll take the win.
Didn't like the team packed on defense, but oh well...
Diego shouldn't have taken Tevez out. He should have taken Messi instead.
We have a chance against Germany if we score 4 goals.![]()
Messi has won plenty with the national team. U20 World Cup and Olympic gold medal. He's only 22 and this is his first actual World Cup where he gets to play, and despite today, he's been singled out as our best player, even without scoring.
I think Ronaldo is a superb talent, but he looks first for himself then for his teammates, and that's really not arguable. It would do Portugal a lot of good if it would be the other way around.
You can keep trumping his ManU career, but this is the World Cup and nobody gives a .
You're holding him hostage!![]()
That was hilarious... he also took plenty of dives, but he saved at least a goal at the line...
brought it up to argue against bull points and against haters. I hate his antics but not his ability. Did you even see his assists in the cup so far. Messi has been running into a maze so far and asked to be played even when the group stage was wrapped up. Isn't that up to the coach? but whatever....it is what it is. I have Argentina winning it all so we'll see what happens
He only played well against North Korea. Against Brazil he was taking 50 yard shots with his teammates ing at him. I think he's a superb talent, no question about it. On the other hand, Messi has been handing goals to everybody out there. Heck, he even gave the pass to Tevez for the first goal today (offside or not). They both can change the game at any time, and that's what makes them great. They also are going to be marked by at least two guys. I don't understand the hate either, I don't particularly 'hate' Ronaldo. I just don't think he's doing his side justice at all.
And BTW, Argentina hasn't won a Round of 16 game in regular time since 1990, when Caniggia scored to beat Brazil 1-0. It's been 20 years. Time to celebrate and worry about other stuff another day.
Another tidbit: Argentina has not lost a World Cup game when leading at halftime since the 1930 final game against Uruguay...
Everyone at the MANU forums are whacking off to Chicharito.
Hope he doesn't dissapoint.![]()
I like him. He should have played instead of Franco.
On the other hand, the guy in your sig was MIA pretty much the whole game.
True man. Some argentines here sound like they expect the team to win every game by 5 and anything less is a reason for nonstop ing.And BTW, Argentina hasn't won a Round of 16 game in regular time since 1990, when Caniggia scored to beat Brazil 1-0.

This is the ing world cup man. No game will be easy, Mexico was tough, Germany will be tougher. Yeah we played like crap today. Of course it's better if you play nice football, but when you can't, you still gotta win no matter what. And that's what the team did.
yeah, and some Argentines like to pretend this team is on par with Germany or Brazil just because it managed to beat Nigeria, South Korea, Greece and barely beat Mexico...
That's fine, play pretend all you want. This team isn't getting past Germany.
Who said this team is on par with anybody?
When are you going to be happy? When this team finally loses and you can say 'I told you so'?
BTW, the at halftime started with el Cuau and Heinze getting face to face after Cuau was already talking to Heinze from the bench during the game.
Yeah you would definitely love that.
I've never said we're better than Brazil or Germany, or that we played great today or whatever. I agree we played our worst game so far today. But dude, you take ing to another level. Asking for yellow cards on your own country's players? LOL man, ing embarrasing..
another reason I love football. Characters.
Heinze is prolly the big baby Davis of WC
I'm afraid Chicharito wont get the playing time he needs and wont grow as much. Like Gio did on Barca.
