golazo, why can’t you get it in your head: I am not ken and I do not post under any other name. why on earth can’t we have registration on this blog so that usurping other peoples names is an issue of the past.

anyways, I am looking forward to spain-italy and it seems that the final will be holland-germany so I guess I will go with the dutch.

Golazo,
you do not seem to get the point.
All I am trying to say is
that Basile does not
have the FREEDOM to pick
who he choses. For a coach
to succeed at that high level
this kind of interference is
unwarranted. Current top
world class coaches such Alex Ferguson,
Mourinho, klinnsmann, Arsene wenger would
never work in such environment. Do
you get it now?
Cheers,
ken

Golazo,
you owe an apology to Ms. Alexa
for treating her with disrespect.
I wonder what you have learnt
in your unpaid internship.
Aurelius,
I am certainly not racist. did n’t the british
colonize the world including USA?

Keep posting because i enjoy what you write.

cheers,

Thats right Day1Star, everytime I use Akk I get a message by the spam filter. Still trying to work out that issue but im finding ways around it.
The list I have provided is the one from where the 23 players will be picked for the Olympic games. 20 player must be aged 23 or under + 3 over.

I know we have had a discussions here about conspiracy theories before but looking at the groups for the Olympics I cant help but wonder how Brazil keeps getting the easiest group in every competition and we end up getting the hardest.

Supposing Argentina and Brazil win their group than they will meet in the semifinals if they both go through the quarterfinals. The only way there could be a Argentina vs Brazil final is if one of them comes in second in their group.

The groups are as follows:
Group A:
Argentina
Australia
Ivory Coast
Serbia

Group B:
Netherlands
Nigeria
Japan
USA

Group C:
China
New Zealand
Brazil
Belgium

Group D:
Korea Republic
Cameroon
Honduras
Italy

I predict, hopefully, an Argentina vs. Netherlands final.

This is my last post so I’m going to make it a good one.

Ken,

Are you saying Basile only starts Messi(Came second in FIFA wold player of the year) because he is forced too??

“Wonder why American doing so poorly at WC level?” because it’s the U.S and no one cares about soccer here.

Ken and Maxilopez,

You guys are way to negative, you have no faith in anything unless it’s yours.

Ken,

We all know your John, Mane, Ali, Donovan and probably more of those “trolls” all I’m going leave you with is why? Are you a spoiled little brat or something you freak out if something doesn’t go your way or believe in the same way as you.

ajNYHC, toddutah, day1star etc,

Good job on saying your opinion =]

Albo,

I tip my hat to you, probably know the most out of all of us.

Messay,

Probably close second behind albo. I came here when you where in charge and good luck in your music career same to you Rune

ALL,

Face it you guys are never going to be in charge of the Argentinean NT so to some here who think that stop acting like it.

And now I sign off for good and VAMOS ARGENTINA WORLD CHAMPIONS IN 2010.

Are you racist too Ken ? I don’t like the undertone of your comments thank you very much over the past months some quite cleatly anti-British.

I suppose we are to blame for everything wrong in the world ? Mugabe for instance ?

Interesting attacking ajNYHC on the basis of his ethnicity just because he disagrees with you . Highly mature. As with the attacks on Indians as I recall in Uganda & more recently in Guyana.

As anand put it ignorance is a liability.

Back to the topic in hand Marco Ruben deserves a good go. He will be back with Villareal next season & in alikelihood in the CL. He has real potential.

No need for an experienced overage forward. Dimi is being refused participation by Bayern , Masche will be in talks with Liverpool & likewise Messi with Barca. All three selections could be unavailable.

Nonetheless the talent is plenty enough to win the tourney & we can call up three other overage players .But should we ? Let the kids toughen up & see who sinks & who swims ?

My XI:
————————-Carizzo—————————
Maidana———–Garay————-Fazio———–Insua–
————Banega——-Gago———–Maxi(C)————
————————Valeri—————————–
————-Aguero——————Cavenaghi————-

SUBS:
Ruben
Romero
Lavezzi
di Maria
Ansaldi
Denis

SQUAD
Navarro/Andujar
Diaz
Gioda
Escudero
Piatti
Zabaleta
Lopez.L/Higuain
