Argentina ffs :lol: Messi has created at least 4 easy chances here and they still haven't scored. On the upside they look much better in general with Sampaoli's tactics of just playing Messi and a load of randoms in attack

What an exciting last round in the qualifiers that will be.

 

Peru v Colombia. Both will be playing for a place in the WC. Colombia needs a draw, but Peru are in great form and are tricky to play against.

Ecuador v Argentina. Argentina has to win.

Paraguay v Venezuela. Paraguay win and they're not qualified only if Argentina, Chile/x and Colombia/Peru wins.

Brazil v Chile. Chile have to draw to make sure to qualify.

Ends 0-0. Useless bastards couldn't finish. Argentina have to go to Ecuador at altitude and win. It could have been much much worse but Paraguay scored 2 in the last ten minutes to beat Colombia

 

They wish. Was two in the last 5 minutes. Both absolutely avoidable too.

 

Be insane if Colombia and Argentina don't qualify although Peru deserve it.

Dybala dropped?

No, not allowed to play with Messi so staying on the bench.  The reason is he doesn't fit Messi.

 

The Messi bubble has to burst. He is not Maradona who can carry the team on his own.  The Messi & friends belief is the main reason why the qualification is a complete failure.

It's a bit of a myth that Maradona carried a team on his own like, he still played with some fantastic players.

Yea kinda true as well, but the problem is people think Messi should also go that route and the team has to be Messi & Friends.  When does Argentina become a super power that they don't need to field the best eleven players to win games easily? Dybala, whom Juv not willing to sell even for 100M is on the bench and Benedetto is the starting striker? WTF?

Yeah but they occupy the same space and Messi is clearly better. We should know with the whole Gerrard and Lampard thing that you need to pick a team and not just a bunch of individuals.

You don't know what you're talking about. The main reason Argentina may not qualify is that Messi missed games through injury. The stats back this up. He created 5 clear chances for teammates last night. What more are you expecting him to do?

Dybala can play ahead of messi like, he doesn't have to play as a ten. Even without that what is the justification for Benedetto over Icardi?

That Icardi played the previous two games and was utterly shit, same with Dybala. Honestly last night was the best Argentina played in ages, they just couldn't finish the chances Messi was making

He's a million miles ahead of benedetto, whats the point of playing a 27 boca striker over a guy who has a ridiculously good goal record in the top flight. I'm not blaming this on messi, but they have to figure out ways to accommodate other players too. Why is Di Maria playing? 0 goals in three games.

They don't have the time at the moment to wait and hope that Icardi starts playing well. Benedetto missed a couple of chances but he offered them way more than Icardi was the last two games
