    • Muscle injury was confirmed to Lo Celso. The grade is yet to be known. There are two scenarios: If it’s low-grade strain he will miss 2 weeks, and if its normal strain he will miss 3 weeks and will be in doubt to face Saudi Arabia. by gastonedul

    • 3 weeks means he will be barely enough fit for the Saudi game. Safe to say he will be out in the first game. Hope Papu will replace him.

      But his injury will be interesting. Should Scaloni bring 8 midfielders instead of 7 knowing that Lo Celso, Paredes, Palacios, and Guido all are not 100% fit now? If 8 midfielders then maybe a defender, not a forward, will be sacrificed.

      Or he will bring 7 midfielders as most speculate here and bring Foyth too who is a hybrid of a DM and a DR/DC.

      Btw 1-2 years ago Lo Celso still battling Palacios for the starting midfielder. Sometimes (like against Bolivia), It was even Palacios who started. But maybe things have changed now.

      • I think if any player not fit for first match atleast he should be drop. An injured player will most probably either will injure again or may not give his 100%

  1. In the History of football, 𝐋𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢 is the footballer with the most:

    Goal contributions (1123)
    Goals in a calendar year (91)
    Goals in a season (82)
    Assists (341)
    Assists in a calendar year (36)
    Goals in finals (32)
    Ballon d’Or (7)
    Golden Boots (6)

    • Puskas or Cruyff have cca. 400 assists, which is not official ofc, only counted from newspaper reports. Pele has more too. (Not official opta assists).

  2. Souness just put Maguire in his Prem team of the week….the stubbornness around Martinez is hilarious

    Martinez has rewritten the rules on what it takes to be a top class CB in the Premier league and the so called “expert” pundits can’t even bring themselves to admit they got it terribly wrong. You don’t need to be over 6 foot to be a top class CB

    From twitter Mark goldbridge big man utd fan
    I like the way man utd fan base defending Lisandro against so call baise pundits like Souness Jamie Carraghe

    • No worries. This world cup final will between Argentina and England. In the 67th minute of the game, L.Martinez will score a header over Maguire in a corner kick. J.Alvarez will then seal the game in added time with a counter attcak shot from distance.

      Argentina 2-0 England.

    • haha, this guy also claims he will be “found out”. What does that mean? To say that someone will be “found out” implies there is something secret but existent you know about them. What can be “found out ” about Lisandro if he has no precedent of having been terribly beaten, of having terrible performances against top strikers, of being an average passer, etc etc etc. It’s like saying Ronaldo will be “found out” as being a poor finisher, that Mbappe will be “found out” as a slow player, the list goes on. It’s not impossible that might happen some day, but if there is no precedent you shouldn’t insist on making the biased claim that there is some secret flop or average player in there, it simply doesn’t add up. This guy is essentially reaching into the void to criticize or dwell on something that isn’t there, move on to something tangible.

    • Fans calling him butcher…but some pundits waiting to butcher him…still waiting…can’t see any mistakes from him…they are sad…their ego will push them to wait…that wait will never end…!

  3. ‘I just feel, when you’re that size, you’ll get caught. You’ll get pinned in the box. I don’t think he’s terribly quick. I don’t think he’s terribly good on the ball. But he’s got something about him that makes other people play [well]. Graeme Souness talking about Lisandro again in live radio earlier Monday morning in UK time

    I come to realised this is pure hate bcs everyone knows the biggest Lisandro’s strength is his ball playing ability

    Roy nemer please respond on YouTube to this Graeme Souness make him eat his words.

    • LOL
      82% of center backs for assists
      97% of center backs for expected assisted goals
      89% for shot creating actions
      94% progressive passes
      Watching him as well, anyone can be impressed by his ability to pass on the first touch, send in long balls, pass in between the lines, etc. I am actually kind of shocked by how inflammatory and biased some of this guy’s comments are, don’t know who he is but it seems like he hates Lisandro. He criticized him before he stepped foot in the club and is still holding on to his erroneous claims no matter how ridiculous they are. It seems like unwarranted hate
