Joaquin Correa to start in place of Lautaro Martinez for Argentina

1. I’m happy with Correa start just because it is a change. He reminds me of our super striker days.
   This is the time to try different formulas and options. I would like to see him subbed for our homestay striker at some point. Also, is Dybala in the team this week?

2. Without Aguero and Lautaro; Correa is next in order without a doubt…

   • Is he good??

     • yes, fast, tall, good at dribbling, tracks backs, etc the biggest concern is finishing although this season he seems to have improved and as Enganche points out, can handle being the focal point since hes mostly used as SS.

4. Vamos Argentina

5. Now we see how Scaloni works as a coach. He has his own pecking order. It is unlikely for the new comers to replace the one who is higher on his pecking order. When I read the news that Lautaro is injured. I knew it would be Joaquin Correa replacing him. Alario might be more of a natural 9 than J Correa, but again Scaloni has his own pecking order.

   Realistically this might be Scaloni’s pecking order:
   GK: 1. Emi. 2. Armani 3. Musso
   DR: 1. Molina 2. Montiel 3. Foyth (I see Molina n Montiel the same, it just depends on match up)
   DL: 1. Acuna 2. Tagliafico 3. Medina
   DC: 1. Cuti 2. Otamendi 3. Pezzella 4. Licha 5. LM Quarta
   DM: 1. Paredes 2. Guido
   MCR: 1. De Paul 2. Palacios
   MCL: 1. Lo Celso 2. Papu
   Winger: 1. Di Maria 2. A. Correa 3. Nico Gonzales
   #10: 1. Messi 2. Dybala (?)
   FW: 1. Lautaro 2 .J. Correa 3. Alario 4. Alvarez

   The way Scaloni works is the number 1 options are his starters. If any of the number one is not available, then he uses number 2. The number 2 option might start in certain matchups. For example Guido sometimes starts over Paredes or Nico starts over Acuna if he wants more defense.

   Things might change a bit if he wants to use another tactic. For example 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1.

   • Scaloni gives more weight for how long the player has been part of the group.. The advantage is the player knows how the rest of the team plays and what he has to do.. Disdvantage is we wont be able to witness talented youngsters like pedri or gavi.. or may be I am wrong.. Scaloni might play a youngster if he is as good as those barca players..

   • Nico palyed as a left back as an emergency
     Can’t remember why but was never a in competition with acuna nor tagli.
     Just a little correction but i agree with you
     Scaloni don’t even wanna try any new players unless it is an emergency

6. Guys please share link for tomorrow’s match.

   • today we play not tomorrow.

     • It’s actually “tomorrow ” morning for many of us 🙂

       • good point. the truth is after i wrote the post i remember the time zone thing and it was late to delete my post 🙂 🙂 🙂

         • i would have a heart attack if i thought the game was tomorrow but it was played today. lol. Waking up tomorrow and seeing all these mundo posts, tyc, etc about the Arg SPANKING paraguay would hurt really bad.

7. Lautaro was in good touch over the last few matches. Instead of Joaquin, perhaps Alario should have been given some starting play time. Still remember his wonderful scores against Germany and Ecuador.

8. Let’s see how he plays. I am not sure he is that good as a focal point or a CF, he’s much better as a second striker playing slightly to the left. Will probably play as a false 9 today. Vamos a ver.
