SpursFlu Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I'm definitely all for the way a country plays football is a reflection of their society. But there is no need to get carried away. I think especially in 2024 when we live in a time when everyone's every action and behavior is over evaluated, diagnosed, labeled and stereotyped. I'm just kinda bored with these sort of topics JAVIERF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We even placed a guy in the Vatican because of the third way. You honestly don't have a clue...about anything. Not just football. Anything.

Someone with legs who can press. Or Larin obviously. *Maybe even Millar gets a start somewhere here. Not that I am predicting or asking for it, but I wonder if he is someone who could play that CAM role... *If we really want to go non-MLS for this one, do we see Zator start instead of Bombito.

I'm just kinda bored with these sort of topics If Argentina played a style of football that reflected their society, they would’ve sold Messi to the US (somehow) and would’ve banned Di Maria from their team for being too woke or whatever. I do wonder what system that manager Elon Musk would employ though. RS, WestHamCanadianinOxford, narduch and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure we can really predict the starting line up against Argentina until we get these friendlies out of the way. johnyb, costarg and Canuckia 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very fluid assymetrical 343/3421 would be another bold choice if you just went with the in-form (as much as possible) Europe crew. --------------David-------------------- Millar--------Hoilett-------------------- Davies - Kone - Eustaquio- Buchanan -----Cornelius -Zator(LDF?) ---Johnston jhoops__ and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of players could possibly play there - Cornelius and then Miller, Hiebert, been a while for LDF and Laryea (eventually?) But of course, the biggest question - what do you do with a player like Davies (cue Sound of Music music). jhoops__ and TGAA_Star 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not properly the Copa America, but certainly it's part of the prep. I am not sure we can really predict the starting line up against Argentina until we get these friendlies out of the way. I've been thinking about how it's a little unfortunate that of all the times we get to play elite teams like Netherlands and France, it's right before we play an elite team in a major tournament. Now, don't get me wrong: when Netherlands/France invite you to play a friendly, you say Yes 100% of the time without question. But both games are going to be tough and don't really leave much room to experiment, and it might have been nice if either one of the friendlies was a bit weaker or the kick off game was against Peru or Chile. Again: this is not a complaint. You take these two friendlies every single time without question or dispute, and it's amazing we're getting them plus the kick off game of the Copa against the defending WC/Copa champions. But spreading out our amazing games might have been nice too. 😉 johnyb, JAVIERF, Obinna and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
