This is usually entertaining and always good to see Argentina become a laughing stock.
Not sure if full strength teams will be playing.
Also Spain were invited to play in this when Japan pulled out. That would have been interesting especially as Barcunts, Real, ourselves, Chavs would have a moan. They declined though so Costa Rica are in.
Group A
Argentina
Colombia
Costa Rica
Bolivia
Group B
Brazil
Paraguay
Ecuador
Venezuela
Group C
Uruguay
Chile
Mexico
Peru
Well it may be necessary that Argentina play as that laughing stock. Maybe that helps weaken Grondona´s mafia. Then there would be only 20 entire club boards left to eliminate
But beware, if things go wrong, the newly built fences may accidentally open and nothing would stop the outraged mass to charge against the foreign players!!
The only thing I don´t want to see in this cup are Chicharito´s teeth.
PS: The anti argie posts are back, it feels like GW again
This starts on July 1st btw
Argentina v Bolivia the first match.
Host country is Argentina as well. They might actually win something for once
Cant see it tbh. Whats the time difference between Argentina and UK?
Chile Mexico sounds like a tasty clash.
Will be interesting to see how Uruguay do after a great World Cup.
But Forlan, their best player last summer has had a shocking season apparently.
They've still got Suarez tbf.
http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/020620...-incident.htmlArgentina forward Lionel Messi played down an incident in which someone tried to punch him outside a restaurant in his home town of Rosario on Thursday.
"I wasn't even touched," Messi told reporters after a punch thrown by a youth wearing a hoodie failed to make contact.
"I didn't feel a thing and I only found out after all the kerfuffle, it was nothing," Messi told sports daily Ole (www.ole.com.ar) from Rosario, 300 km north of Buenos Aires.
Messi, on holiday after another brilliant season in which he helped Barcelona win the Champions League, left the restaurant with friends and was surrounded by autograph hunters.
Argentine media, who gave the incident massive coverage, said Messi's aggressor was a fan of Rosario Central, arch-rivals of Newell's Old Boys where the 23-year-old spent his formative years before joining Barcelona some 10 years ago.
"We're taking photos and we see the arm and he dodges it. (Messi) did not react badly, he left walking and got into the (car)," witness Carolina told the TV news channel C5N.
Messi will report to national team coach Sergio Batista on June 8 to begin training for next month's Copa America hosted by Argentina.
Its a miracle the cunt didnt go down holding his face and rolled over 50 times like the scumbag he is

Actually, Ach, Messi is probably the only of the Barcelona players not likely to dive. The Barcelona team as a collective are a bunch of diving cheats but Messi is pretty clean.Originally Posted by Ach
While all answers are responses, not all responses are answers.
Messi doesn't milk it as much as Busquets, Alves, Iniesta, Pedro, etc. but he rolls over a few times every game. It is overlooked though, as the refs and commentators fawn over his every movement. I remember Denilson being booked for a perfect challenge last season after some ref-baiting rolling from Messi. Same thing hapened with Wilshere (or maybe Song) this season.
I'm most surprised that he uses the word "kerfuffle" tbh.
