Its time for the rebuild!
The focus must start from mid
We were outclassed by spain in mid
We need to be beast in mid again and in 2 years time we must be back with best midfield in the world and in 4 years time from now on we must have midfield batter than spain
I dont care about other nations Argentina can beat any other nation on planet earth apart from spain. I want us in a position where we can beat spain in a wc knockout match whenever we have a rematch in the next world cup
#VamosArgentina 🇦🇷
We need payback against Spain in their own country in 2030.
Should have banned Otamendi as well. This might be one way for more deserving younger and better players to finally get opportunities instead of fossils and Scaloni’s favorites, LOL.
Otamendi has retired
that’s really unfortunate. that effectively rules him out of next few qualifiers and copa america. he is 32 but all drama aside he was a very solid player for us in every tournament, anyone who disagrees is new to football and is clearly a newcomer here.
On the other hand, I’m glad Molina is out. He is just too unreliable, now hopefully Montiel or some youngster can get more time.
Argentina has already qualified for the 2030 World Cup as one of the host nations, with Argentina set to host one match.
Argentina is already overloaded with defensive midfielders. What the team desperately needs is a genuine creative playmaker who can control the tempo, break lines, and consistently create chances.
Enzo isn’t that player. Argentina needs someone with more of an Olise-type profile: technically gifted, creative, progressive, and capable of unlocking a defense rather than simply recycling possession.
With Messi’s eventual departure, Argentina cannot expect the next generation to simply inherit his creativity. The midfield needs a fundamental rebuild, and finding a true playmaker should be one of Scaloni’s biggest priorities.
Isn’t Nico Paz this player?
And Paulo Dybala.
No one playmaker schema anymore. Nico starter but Tomas Aranda which is more of the playmaking type (some riquelme resemblance) as in starting 11.
Paredes needs to be moved on from anyways.
