I loved Diego as a player, but to show Maradona evey two seconds is tiresome; this was Messi's and Argentina's game. Let them have their moment, fuck that reality TV gimmick of a bafoon that is Diego Armando Maradona. He adds to the pressure with his looming presence more than relieving the...
Much more balance and intelligence with Banega in midfield. Well played by Di Maria as well so far. Messi, what a goal. Completely hoarse for a week, but so worth it.

Good blaugrana vibes in the spanish NT. Hopefully, the players can lobby for Thiago's return, the chemistry is definitely still at a max level.

If not Thiago, I would not mind Pjanic for a second. He has been world class since his last season at Roma and a constellation of Busquets-Rakitic-Pjanic could be deadly. After we've seen how good Rakitic is for Croatia alongside Modric, Pjanic could be a solid investment for as low...
I have a feeling Leo will turn up against Nigeria and Argentina will start to gather momentum - they could potentially meet Denmark in the round of 16 (if the Danes win against France, which is not unlikely since Denmark have been unbeaten in their last 17 matches and France has Deschamps as...

EXCELLENT ARTICLE ON TONIGHTS GAME AND WHY THE GUY TO BLAME IS NOT LEO MESSI BUT RATHER JORGE SAMPAOLI!
Is Messi playing well? Strawman argument talking about 2014. We are all watching the same game and Messi is the best player in the history of football, period. His teammates are mostly average at best, but Leo's performance has been halfassed so far.
Sampaoli bringing in Higuain. For fucks...
They should bring on Banega, even with his old ass he is capable of passing the ball forward at least.
Sampaoli will probably field Di Maria though. Disaster.
Sampaoli is even worse than Diego. If you can't find a solution to field both Dybala and Messi in the same formation, you need to SIT DOWN. BITCH, BE HUMBLE.
Why is he walking around? Saving energy for a hattrick against Nigeria when Argentina is officially out of the WC? Even though it pains med to say, but Ronaldo is five times the leader Messi is. No energy, no passion or RAGE. I want to see angry Messi. Rage Leo is lit AF.
