Coloccini is playing in a team that is completely lost.

I agree with post that says the Basile way is seven defenders and then three guys responsible for all the attacking. We need midfielders that can both defend and attack. What is sad is that we have them. I still think that as Roman gets older he is best used as a sub at about 60 minutes. he then can come in when the other team is tired and he wont seem so slow.

Tevez isn’t starting again for Man Utd’s CL league game today. Rooney, Berbatov and Ronaldo starting.

This is getting ridiculous.

thats my argument all along the forward 2 doesn’t work with messi because he wonders and drifts and is a free playmaker witch leaves Agüero on his own

messi needs to drop back i totally agree this is my point with 3-5-2

messi vs ortaga in the hole messi is another level he is perfect for the so-called playmaker position

this allows aguero to play along side a true 9 like milito

ag mil
mes

like so, now do we build a 3-5-2 with this or a 4-3-1-2 4-4-2 looks good going forward if it was de mario on the left messi on the right feeding aguero and milito but again its 4-4-2 its generic its predictable and it leaves the dreaded hole in your defense…

di maria milito messi as a front 3 is more impressive than lopez – ortaga i wont mention batistuta as his the greatest true centre forward of all time (fact) and calling milito better would result in god striking me down with lightning for being stupid lol….

brasil won 2002 was it (well had it handed on a plate played turky twice and met weakest german side in history in final god what a joke wc that was) with a 4-3-1-2 it was a flouting forward 3 revaldo in the hole

surly its messis turn in the roman hole playmaker he can attack both flanks and the goal mouth from here and bring in other players milito can hold the ball and poach goals aguero can play as second striker link man

super attack 3-5-2

aguero milito
messi

-mascorano gago maxi
henze demichelis Coloccini – stands for dont know his name newcastle winger guy who busted shoulder against peru

2 strong wingers newcastle guy and maxi bombing forward and working hard wide, mascorano holding midfield strong back 3 and gago playing box to box as a midfield general

messi free role aguero second striker link man (saviloa style) and milito doing a batistuta job up front

censership is for gays so is ip blocking ITS MY WEB SITE ILL CRY IF I WANT TO PATHETIC

Debasish: the Coloccini thing is nothing new: in fact things are going exactly as I predicted them (not that I’m happy about that).
Time and time again players from Argentina and spain have gone to England with big reputations and then been spat back out and then deemed failures for the rest of their careers regardless of what they achieved before or after (Veron a classic example). Coloccini to Newcastle was a classic bad team buying one defender (when you need more than that) pinning everythin on him and then sulking when things go astray. England is a completely different culture to an Argentine: not just everyday life but in football too. There is less emphasis on keeping the ball, short passing everything is built around the cross. We’ve all wached Coloccini hold his own in the Argentina team these past 5/6 years, we saw what he did at Deportivo when a coach finally played him consistently in one position and he grew in to the team. Now he’s taken the money at the age of 26 (his prime years) and is seemingly falling in to the trap that Veron, Forlan, Luque etc all fell in. You’re right: he could’a been a contender for a starting place in the Argentina 11, but at this time? at that club? No. I hope the money is worth it for him.

John – I know that, I was saying both of those players deserve callups. Gonzalo is probably the best Argentine defender right now.
