  1. Foyth has been playing last few matches as centre back as as right back when he is fit he is a miles better than montiel I don’t got why still carrying likes montiel and pezzella they don’t have no business with the nt they don’t even perform well for thier club River plate
    I hope scaloni drops those old undeserved player after those big matches against Uruguay and Brazil.
    My predictions is scaloni will make big changes after Brazil and Uruguay matches.

    • Foyth is a different kind of right-back, the one that plays like an extra midfielder, (I believe he started as a midfielder in Estudiantes academy and maybe that’s why he is wearing a number 8 today) more centrally than someone like Molina who hugs the touchline and stretches the play. It depends on what you want from your fullback. I agree that he is now is probably better overall than Montiel. At the very least he playing for a decent club in one of the best leagues in the world.
