World Cup 2022

Cant create anything.

Messi has dissapeared as any creative force and all they have is Di Maria in space crossing with outside of foot to no real threat.

This is the Messi performance you see in the KO CL games these days too. Not doing enough off the ball to get involved and when he does he’s too rusty to get going.

Completely different team compared to 4 years ago man.

Their tactics, displays and psychology look exactly the same though

 

[Jenks]

Argentina won 1 match in Russia.

Iceland 1:1
Croatia 0:3
Nigeria 2:1
France 3:4

Saudi 1:2 currently

Not too much has changed since 2018, both in horrible displays and results.

I mean if you look at their XI it's kinda wild that people were predicting they'd win the whole thing in the first place. It seems entirely predicated on the fact that they've had a really good unbeaten run. Portugal look far better equipped for it IMO.

 

[JamDav1982]

Messi is nowehere near what he was or best in world.

Takes more than playing teams stretched by Neymar and Mbappe.

 

[Respekt_III]

This referee should never ever ref a game again.

I am equally as baffled with overhyping of Brazil

Argentina were hyped because of their collective, not the individual quality.

8 min? Really?

Aye 'baffled' by Argentina once they lose is not some huge claim.

 

[Devils]

This is too much.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Messi and Ronaldo are both finished.

Every dog has their day.

 

[JamDav1982]

What on earth is Messi even trying to do there.....

 

[FCBfan22]

Every ARG player needs 30 minutes on the ball. Can't win like that against runners of SA.

 

[fergus90]

Damn he just got knocked clean out
