JD nawrat Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Now that I think about it, Argentina have replaced England at this world cup. Struggling to get through the groups, just selecting some star players without a real gameplan. Shocking goalkeeper error as is customary for England. Goalkeeper not a locked down position because of that. Argentina are the new England. E: not to mention humped in the first KO round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Higuain has played but traditionally when he plays for Argentina there's no real gameplan. Same for Dybala. Their squad selection features about 5 world class attackers and Sampaoli hasn't got a clue how to use them. Just like England with Scholes, Gerrard and Lampard.
