its an old quote,he said that in 2012
even though ronaldo has out performed messi this season,i think messi might have been saving himself for the world cup as he might see this as his best chance of guiding argentina to world cup glory
No player "save themselves" for a World Cup. They could get injured in the 1st minute of the group stages thereby wasting a whole season.
Truth is, as much as people don't seem to like admitting it, is that Ronaldo is simply better than Messi at the moment.
Still, I feel if it isn't Brazil, then Argentina will win it. It would be hilarious if they won Brazils tournament. I hope it happens.
ze Germans have something to say about that.
What about Spain ffs ?
I watched their friendly against El Salvador yesterday and they look ready.
Spain have the best players by a country mile still.
Germany are the team I'm most looking forward to watching and after we crash out they'll be the ones I'll probably "support". You can never write them off but I just can't see a European winner in South America.
The only team I don't want to see win it is Spain as they bore the pants off me.
but I just can't see a European winner in South America.
--------------------------------
I can see a European team winning this time.
Sorry Brummie,but Argentina are my favourites to win it,but I also fancy Spain and Germany .
They have a team capable of it harle but I just hope that country wins nothing.
I won't even buy Argentinian wine!
Yes Bov - and this makes the blood boil as well!

Because of the 255 names on here - and Argentine continued posturing over those islands!

Yes and look at all the horrible things this "great" country has done, we deserve to have 3 quarters of the world bitter against us.
Like Northern Ireland, The falklands are not ours we stole it plain and simple.

Do you actually believe what you're writing?
Yes im not biased in my views please enlighten me tho on why the Falklands are ours....After you've finished reading the Daily Sport of course.
You think the situation in Northern Ireland is "just like" the Falklands?
You, sir, are a buffoon.

Putting words in my mouth? I didnt say ot was "Just like" at all, totally different situations.
But they are both countries previously owned by others that we invaded.
Like i said check our history instead of having a go at the Argies...And then realise we have all beem bad and move on.
im not british,only lived in london for a while so come on argentina
You said "Like Northern Island" - you drew that parallel, no-one else, and quite frankly it's a stupid assertion and you clearly don't know wtf you're talking about.
The French and British colonised the Falklands, no-one else, and where do you think Argentina came from? You think they're indigenous or something and just happen to speak Spanish?
Jesus wept.
Argentina can feck right off if they think they're getting the Falklands back. There was a referendum there recently and I think only 3 people voted to be part of Argentina. The islanders consider themselves British and that's the main thing.
Anyway I don't care who wins the World Cup if its not England
The Falklands were originally settled by both French and British in the 1770's so both have a more legitimate claim to them than any other country.
The French left leaving their colonies to Spain. Argentina, who certainly had no colonies there, and did not know of there existence, tried claiming the Spanish colonies when they left.
The population (Made up of a heritage of Britsh, Chilean, St Helenan) who live there now are Falkland Islanders afforded the protection of the British Crown and want nothing to do with Argentina.
In the last vote 98.8% of them voted that they wanted nothing to do with Argentina!
