I mean, that balance won’t be found with Diniz who is only there until Ancelotti (supposedly) takes over in June. They’ve decided to not call up Paqueta until the betting investigarions are complete. But yes, him infront of Bruno and Andre would probably be our best midfield for now.

I mean Twitter is divided from what I see and the same in the newspapers. Personally I thought, Bruno and Andre did well, Argentina had 0 shots on target apart from the goal. I don’t know if it was because they looked better than their counterparts comparing to their performance against Colombia. Fwiw, him and Martinelli got the highest rating of all in some newspapers, while others criticized both.

Was really poor against Colombia as Brazils midfield of two was run over by their five midfielders. However, last night he had a much better game, him and Andre (who we should buy) controlled the midfield against De Paul, Enzo and MacAllister and didn’t give Messi any chance on the ball.

Beg to differ. They took hell of a beating. At least Luis Fabiano will be proud.

This is good experience for the young guys. Last time we sucked in the qualifiers we actually won the damn thing.

Worst red card I’ve seen. This ref has been all Argentina all night.

did he?

What a half he’s having.

We got Paqueta after all.

Every little detail in football going our way lately. Lovely.

Wilson for Anderson/Tonali/Longstaff at half time and we will look better.

Dominating us.

Lucky not to be off there.

Luckily for us, he’s been shit for two years now.

Wow. What the fuck happened?

Team looking fantastic.

Had to look at our fantasy matchup to see what you were on about. But I won that.

I mean I’m not watching the game, but Reguilon is shit and so is Kaka.

Clinically insane.

Where were you after the 1-0 loss at the Etihad? The reactions were far worse

I actually completely agree with you and if you had read the post below you would see you are making the same point as I was trying to in a way. I guess I was quite unclear with my initial post.

I’m just trying to say that losing to a newly promoted side and bowing out of the League Cup could add some real pressure to the side that they havn’t really felt. I’m not one of them, but losses to Man City, Brighton and Liverpool had people questioning Howe and the squad on here. People have even turned on our best players..

3 points a must here, could potentially define the season. Lose/draw and then go out in the League Cup in the same week could potentially cause chaos.

Really good tonight, probably his best performance this season. Need more help though, the other two push out so wide he feels isolated in the middle at times.

Bit baffled as to why it took 90minutes to take Isak off when his legs were gone after 75ish?
