Some world class keeping by Muslera tonight! Keeping Uruguay from conceding a few goals.

I don't cry for you, Argentina.

I said two months ago that Italy was weaker than Spain, Brazil, and Germany but stronger than Argentina and Holland as a TEAM. Now I have one more proof.

After WC1990, the best thing an Argentina NT could do in a WC was to take part in quarter-final. So they are no better than England (a favorite joke).

Italy's reputation has dropped a lot, but they still have very good players at every position, Argentina and Holland not. The Selecion are strange. They don't have a good CM who can create. They play 3 forwards who all want to play CF. And we all know about their defense. Poor Messi, always takes the blame.

You don't prove anything about Italy. The lost of Argentina doesn't make Italy stronger. The fact is Argetina and Holland are (much) better team than Italy until now.

Of course, I can't really prove anything. Only the teams in a serious competition can.

However, I still think having all Van Basten, Weah, Sheva, Pato, Ibra in their prime at the same time doesn't make Milan stronger than with only 2 of them.

Brazil - Paraguay is on now.

The overall quality of the fields used in this CA is pretty bad IMO. Like when the camera zoomed in the lines, I noticed they're kinda bumpy. And tonight's is even worse, there's too much sand. Let's hope nobody gets injured.

Fixed that for you.

Is it just me, or Andre Santos isn't a bad defender? Only have heard some not that good words about him.

LOL.. I was gonna write that actually since football is about Milan and Milan only for me but since we've been linked with Ganso (Lucas or Neymar, who knows) then why not broadening the term, methinks

Andre Santos is a decent LB but nothing special IMHO. And he's already 28. If the careers of Dinho, Adriano, Emerson and the likes are to go by, then buying him now will be a bad business

[theaxeofpain]

I actually didn't think of us buying him. Just that I have never seen him before this Copa America, had only heard of him.
