Biglia and Mascherano have no place in that team. Fancy Croatia to do them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they have countless issues but that pivot is detrimental to everything surrounding the function of the team. He is lost everytime he manages to get the ball or is near it. Look at his body language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, Iceland are drilled like a club side, they have the same team all the time plus the spirit, Argentina have nothing really apart from a few star players with no organisation at all.

Don’t really need it. He seems to find the one on tv all the time. Plus seeing as that’s the only hope, then the answer is evident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machado 1,710 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Messi has been good to be honest. He tries to link up but end up looking frustrated as he realises this isn't exactly Barcelona quality he's playing with. Maybe he should try to go solo a bit more? Younger Messi would.

Guest Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 How does Messi get criticized for his performances with Argentina? He's always got 3 men marking him with no one to back him up. No one overlapping or underlapping and the only thing he can do it pass it sideways to another marked player. Besides, he's playing deep. I don't know what's happened to Sampaoli but he's got it all wrong here. His worst decision was to not play Armani in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirBalon 2,692 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 There was an advantage from the hand though and I think those are the rules. It wasn’t voluntary for sure but I think advantage overrules that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
