Sergio AGUERO scores for Manchester City in derby win against United

1. I hope banega and ageuro will be in the starting lineup of copa because ageuro is best striker of the world and banega for the time being is most creative midfielder of our team(since these two never got proper chance ,I want both of them to start along with messi in copa)

2. Armani is not a technically gifted Goal Keeper but somehow he someway saves River Plate ass with some game deciding decisive saves. It’s for River Plate by the way. For NT? well he has till now played 3 matches for us. We can’t get a conclusion on the basis of that.

   Speaking of which none of our goal keepers looks technically gifted. Romero based on his past achievement looks a safe option. Which is not a long term option at all. Maximum till Copa.

   I just hope Romero play for us in Copa so that somehow he will be satisfied to wear the NT jersey again at a major tournament. So that he forget the catastrophe of missing the WC with injury.

   Any way all our Coaches seed him as Number 1.Sighsss.. We can’t test other goalkeepers even in friendlies. As per me the Goal keeping is a position which we still don’t have an answer. Apart from coach ofcourse.

3. Martinez quarta,montiel really impressed me .palacios is decent

4. Rumour from camp nou , lionel messi wants giovanni lo celso at Barcelona as a possible replacement of ivan rakitic, real madrid is also keeping eye on him next summer transfer window will be a big thing for lo celso. Now psg will realize they did the biggest mistake because if betis progress in europa league and they pay 30 mil , then psg will have to sell lo celso.
   Lo celso did best career move by joining betis otherwise he would be another wasted talent like pastore.

   • Benched in one big club, then blooming in smaller to be benched once again in big one… I’m not sure Messi there is sufficient protect for Lo Celso to give him enough minutes in starting eleven. Better is enemy of good enough. Betis is getting stronger, no need to left him. They just beat Barcelona yesterday. No, thank you.

     • True Barca’s coach velverde is a big coward who doesn’t believe in giving opportunities to young players see the condition of mina,malcom,dembele,cillesen,Denis ,semedo and he uses same squad again and again

       • Arthur

         • Arthur is not an exception. He JUST started getting minutes, and when he realized how good he is, guess what, he’s played EVERY game since. Valverde is too much of a pussy to change the formula.
           Barcelona line up is as predictable as ever.

           For example, the washed up Suarez, keeps starting every game, meanwhile they loaned Alcacer thinking he has nothing to offer, but now hes flourishing and even scoring for spain. An example of how much of a pussy Valverde is and what hes missing out on. Denis, Malcom, Semedo will flourish in another squad if Barcelona is not careful.

   • Sounds a little far fetched. He didn’t even have an amazing game to begin with, so many misplaced passes, his goal was a gift from Ter Stegen. What are your sources?

   • Don’t like Barca…
     Play there in betis

5. Pavon proved that he is actually another Di María

   Higuaín proved ( again ) that he need a psychiatrist

   No matter who win …. Boca and River made us proud

6. Pity had a great game but I think he is better when he plays with Quintero and Palacios.

   Lo Celso played almost as playmaker yesterday, I focused a lot on his defensive work, actually not bad, he made a good progress. By the way, his goal was kind of “strange”, nobody marked him. Don’t know if its Barca defense fucked up or due to his game reading.

   • Both to be honest. Barca’s defense was a joke but Celso was on his game and was all over the pitch, defending and attacking.

     • During attack Locelso’s positioning is great

   • His transfer is not done yet. Probably Atlanta needs first sell Almiron to Premier League.

     Pity was good everywhere on the pitch. Released assist by incisive pass from middle area on first Pratto’s goal; had semi-assist from right wing on second, own goal and nice freekick at the beginnings on the right wing, while on the left wing he had that volley shoot at the post. Really looked like No.10 of the team.

7. How long is Gallardo’s suspension?
   Will he be able to coach the team on the pitch in 2nd leg?

   • 3 more bans. Maybe he will use radio like semi final at home game.

8. Still everything is possible after first leg but but the away goals makes it slightly easier for River now.

   • no away goal rule in the final, in the last 15 classicos only one!!! was won by the home side, 2 draws (one today) , and 12!!! away wins, so maybe rather Boca is the favourite, my tip Boca will win after penalties

     • No away goal rule in the final does not makes Boca favourite just because of past stats of classicos.

       There’s no clear favourite here. But River play home

       • but 0:0 or 1:1 is enough for the penalties, Boca can play more relaxed, and they are brilliant away in Libertadores in this season, two draws vs brazil champion Palmeiras, draw against Sudamericana finalist Junior, win against Libertad, draw against Cruzeiro, no loss

         • For me no one is favourite if no away goals. Simply. The rivalry is unpredictable.

9. Armani had not good game but he saved match-ball of Benedetto

   • yes. showed his strength and weakness perfectly.
     not a technical goalkeeper but probably above average in reflexive saves

10. 4-4-2 shape from gallardo now.
    possibly to counteract barrios in the mid field who has been excellent at destroying.

11. first goal armani highlighted his big weakness again. inability to deflect ball away from danger. second probably was on CB when watching live. will have to take another look.
    palacios doing a lot of hard work in the middle but final passing a little off.
    pity looking good so far.

12. For the River side Pity had a chance to score third identical volley goal agaist Boca but hit the post. Still made great assist, actually had a part on almost every good opportunity of River

    • Yeah Pity had a fantastic game, honestly he is so wasted on a “farmer’s league” like the MLS.

      • Is it confirmed or just rumour for his transfer?

        • It seemed to be confirmed, why? have you heard otherwise?

          • Still has little hope to see him in a better club, a better league he deserves so much better

13. Benedetto as always makes difference for Boca.

14. I was wrong. What a game!

    • Good for Argentina football
      It was good first half

    • Excellent football show for all those love football!

15. wanchope breaks the deadlock.
    armani shows the ball catching/deflecting abilities of a brick wall.

    edit: and it’s equalized while Im typing.

16. River going with Pinola, Martinez and Maidana at baack to start.
    Incredible scenese at Bombonera at start

    • First of all do not conceed

      • Indeed. Though I don’t trust pinola too much
        looks like 3-4-1-2 with pity in playmaker role.

        • damnit. pavon’s day is done.
          looks like hamstring pull.
          disappointing. was a big occassion for him to shine.

17. Barca people and some others are going to watch River and Boca youngsters but they apparently don’t know enough about reality of Superclasicos between Boca and River, especially if it’s final of CL. Most probably it will not be nice to watch technical fireworks but full of fight war, the more when pitch will not be in best state.

    • River with 5 defenders line
