  1. Aguero is a underrated player hi is a unlucky player too.. Coaches of arg national team never use him properly…

    • Jesus is a fraud showman. He can never reach the level of aguero even if he plays for a 10 years in city. Aguero is still best striker in the world.

      • You mean the most overrated player?!
        I guess you haven’t heard what people say about him in England though. Shearer the recent one.

    • Lol,all of this on the back of just one game! And don’t forget that Aguero played close to half an hour last night.
      Tell me pal, which were City’s best games last season? And who was playing/starting upfront?
      Firmino does more to his team what Aguero does with his excellent close control,low centre of gravity, short space acceleration and clinical finishing!

  2. Taglia’s second goal is sensational!

    A hater will pop up and say: No he wanted to cross the ball and it went in luckily….Hahaha

  3. Dybala will ruin himself he he doesn’t leave juventus againt starting from the bench that moron ronaldo will never let him start.
    by the way tagliafico been best player of ajax today nice goal effort and good crosses.

      • Hahaha, Kid used to call him poor man’s Lucas Orban and Bauza thought he was not world class and too short, felix culpa?

        • Against France Mbapoe destroyed him, 2 goals plus a penalty and a horrible luft before Pavard goal, he cost us the WC, sadly thats the true

          • Against France all of our defence sucked big time.

            Do you have other world class left-backs waiting to fill his spot?

            Besides, any fullback would struggle against Mbappe.

            Tagliafico is one of the few our players that came out the WC with some degree of decent performance

          • Csabalala was always along with Kidulthood in hating our youngsters, Tagliafico as well. So he will keep on denying. Even if Taglia was one of our 2-3 best players on last WC.

            Such people will never admit Argentina youngster proved them already to be wrong.

          • Csabalala watch that match again, tagliafico cleanly dispossessed mbappe 3-4 times it was rojo and fazio who conceded the goal.

          • Mbappe was Tagliaficos man, yes the others was really bad too, but against them Mbappe came with full speed, because Tagliafico didnt mark him correctly, so they were completely vulnerable, the left backs task to defend against the winger before that speed up, in that match Tagliafico was in nowheres land, not support the attack, and not defend against Mbappe. So why not played Mbappe God-level in the other matches? he was average, just only us a real monster…

          • if you watched the match mbappe never ran through LW, he was always running through the middle of pitch it was maschareno who was always out of position.

      • I remember how they were harsh on him after his debut game against Brazil. They even didn’t let the guy play a second game. It’s laughable how some Mundo members are quick in judgement, especially when it comes to the local players.

        • I remember that very well. Taglisico was long time ago player for NT.

          Sadly it’s true. New, young players, specially from local league must deliver within 1-2 games in NT, if not they will throw out while it’s clear most of our talents just needs some time and coach to trust them.

          • No, he will be always mere farmer. Just your closed horizons keep you blind for potential from other clubs than the biggest.

  4. Within few hours big quarter final of Copa Libertadores Independiente – River. 6 players of last Scaloni selection to start (3 on every side). And maybe som others potentiall future call ups (Montiel, Benitez?). So there’s a lot to watch.

    2 hours later Boca plays Cruzeiro.

    Unfortunately Atletico Tucuman lost their first leg to title defender – Cruzeiro.

  5. I hope that is true I believe Povon he could be a world class.
    He batter than a lot names mundo friends keep mentioning.
    That is my opinion…

  6. https://www.tycsports.com/nota/seleccion-argentina/2018/09/19/un-regreso-una-sorpresa-y-una-ilusion.html

    I don’t get the drop of Vargas if Meza still will be there. Vargas still has a lot of time and first need to regain his club form but not Meza over Vargas. Andrada deserves call up. Otamendi, Salvio are still just taken into account. I doubt Scaloni will back to Salvio.

    I like Saravia and Bustos to be there again but Di Placido deserved some minutes. It’s Saravia who was the player called up instead injured Mercado, not Di Placido. Di Placido was first choice of Scaloni so I don’t get that he had not any minute.

    • Varges will got his chance again
      The important thing he get his first call up.
      I guess that will motivate him more .

      • I think so. Believe he will soon back to scoring and assisting in league as it was last season when he was second best assister in league after Pavon.

    • It will be gr8 if pavon joins arsenal because it looks like unai emery is a fan of that left-footed argentine.
      He was about to make lo-celso a starting player at psg , he even started him against real madrid.
