Good for them but we need Bale in the World Cup

The fake Italians are cooking the real Italians. Argentina got a proper squad.

Martinez needs to be striking for them in Qatar. Dybala, Icardi, Simeone should not near that no. 9 spot.

Italy v Argentina tonight in this made up final or Copa America champs V Euro champs.

Brazil won that thing like 5 times in the past 20 years and just now theyre doing this bs match smh

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

Argentina looking their most cohesive since the 2006 world cup.

 

[MikelArteta]

No wonder he had the time to be interviewed by Gary Neville.

Should be looking forward to a World Cup now how Fifa where allowed to get away with this nonsense is astonishing

Would have been perfect, saw Alphonso Davies is heartbroken because his pawg left him. Could have used that to our advantage now he’ll be healed by the time the World Cup starts

Messi toying with this flabby Italian defence

Just like after winning World Cup 06, they've phoned it in after the Euro's..

They need another overhaul.

Can't have overhyped bums like Belotti or Immobile leading the line.

Bonnuci and Chiellini are gone soon.

Italy need to move on from the aging center backs.

Argentina looking like they're heating up.

 

[Ukbrotha]

Argies look good. Could be a real problem in Qatar.

Messi toying with this flabby Italian defence

Heard that Messi had a master class without even scoring. At the tale end of his career he finally has countrymen around him who know how to play as a cohesive team.

They look good but how much of that is because Italy is ?

Italy is already demoralized due to missing out on the World Cup. Their two best players from Euros, Chiesa and Spinazzola, are injured. Chiellini is finished, Bonucci is almost done. No Veratti or Insignie either ... Italy is terrible

This Argentine team has a lot more mobility and energy around Messi which hasn't been the case for some time too many older forwards. Most games in recent times its been give the ball to Messi and see what he can do. Yeah the Italy team helped with their lack of mobility but Argentina had a more pace and movement in their play.
