With the kind of form he is in , I don’t think we need to be concerned he won’t be playing! He has been in an abysmal form especially with his first touch and finishing and if he were to be fit , he would be coming off the bench anyways. For me he isn’t a starting player quality yet as we have better players and we don’t depend on wingers to create chances for us like United.
Alvarez and lataro will start.. messi behind them..
I think injury is going to cost us the two games. We are running out of luck. Feeling worried now. These were supposed to be two easy matches for us.
It wasn’t luck that got Argentina 3 titles (and finalisima) in the last 4 years, it was organization, effort and…..abit of luck.
As for easy matches, well I advise you to be extra careful when talking about CONMBOL WCQ being easy because there are NO easy matches. Remember that some of Sabella’s earliest matches were against Venezuela (away, a loss) and Bolivia (a draw at home).
When I thought garnacho would start then the bad news come….
