Argentina making alot of mistakes.

Something is very wrong here. Call me conspiracy theorist or whatever but you just cannot make so many gaffes like this.

When I was watching the matches you'd het annoying advertising running across the bottom of the screen and extremely annoying commentary with commentators mistaking players fir someone else.

I was there in the US in 94 when the WC was being played. Virtually noone knew or cared about it. Nowadays it's different but America is America. The love for commercial breaks and cheesy merchandise will never die there. It's sort of the same here in Oz with AFL and NRL culture.

My issue with Nico is his ceiling. I don't think he will het substantially better. If you're buying a young player, you want to see that there is room to grow and get even better. I don't get that vibe. He also seems pretty one dimensional. We should not be paying big money for him only for...

I hated Valverde because of that. He let amigos do whatever they wanted and gave players the day off too often. A culture of lethargy and complacency set in and we've struggled with that in recent years.

That's intense physical work?😁 Join a hard-core grappling/mma gym. Now, that's intense.

Absolute shithouse of a match and why so negative from Koeman? Great finish by Watkins but England are dire. I hope they get torched by Spain. England have no footballing identity. Them winning would be a travesty for football.

Man,we suck in so many areas. Timing being one of them. We probably should have closed the deal on either De Jong or Araujo before these tournaments. Now we have two injured players whose value has significantly decreased and who can run down their contracts, if they desire .

Please enlighten us with your wisdom and tell us what you would do.

What an absolute nightmare for Flick. Entire midfield out for the start of the season, Cubarsi , Garcia and Fermin going to the Olympics. Araujo injured. And he's not even taken one training session.

We need players and they have to be free or cheap. Pedri, Gavi and De Jong out. Fermin is going to the Olympics. That's basically the whole midfield out for the start of the season. Do you want to start Bernal, Cassado and Darwich??? Paredes and Rabiot are serviceable, cheaper options at the...

So we can afford 65 million Nico but not 12 million for a pivot? Am I missing something?

The first problem is we are introducing these youngsters very early. The second is we are overplaying them. It would have been nice if these guys had been gradually integrated into the first team but our shitty situation forced us into playing them. Our medical and fitness staff seem pretty...

Fuck me. It's time we hire players who are physically and mentally resilient. I don't know if it's the fault of the players or medical staff but it's always our players who seem the most injury prone. Flick hasn't even managed one match and he has Gavi,Pedri, De Jong and Araujo out. I probably...

Yeah, he's a bit of a dick but you need someone like him. You can't have choir boys in every position. He is the Sergio Ramos of goalkeepers. You may hate him but you'd love him in your team. A guy like this lifts and inspires the whole team. If Argentina has someone like Ter Stegen they lose...

Would love to have him at Barca. This guy loves the pressure and embraces it unlike that fairy Ter Stegen who crumbles in the spotlight.

What an absolute dogshit penalty take Messi is. It's the only area of his game where there's a weakness.

You know we're in trouble when we start looking at the championship.

You want a goalkeeper with personality. Neur has it, Schmeichel, Kahn had it. Martinez has it. Mr transplant doesn't have it. Every elite keeper has those days where their team suffers and they bail them out. Ter Stegen has done it in liga but been a total liability in CL. If we weren't broke I...
