Diego, i’ll support argentina no matter whichever 37 year old colleague of yours u choose! But albiceleste will miss garay,diaz,papa,gonzalez,samuel,zanetti,riquelme,cambiasso,maxi,datolo,lucho,ibagaza,crespo,lisandro,lavezzi,zarate …… Be warned & pick right people. Btw, messi is a playmaking winger – not a striker.

.. and 5 minutes later I don’t like the team anymore and I think maybe we could use Burdisso in there … and there’s always Riquelme, who SHOULD be a starter, but you never know what you’re gonna get in terms of football or attitude ..

The only ones I’m sure about are the ones I don’t want to see in the World Cup: Heinze, Coloccini, Gutiérrez, Palermo, Schiavi … you know, for a minute I was getting worried he was gonna call up Guillermo Barros Schelotto. Oh, and one last name who should NOT be in South Africa next year: Diego Maradona.

Sam, What’s your view of who show be on the squad? I was thinking the other day and trying to come up with my 23 (only 2 keepers and i’ll take my chances with injury):

Starters: Romero; Zabaleta, Garay, Forlín, Papa; Cambiasso, Mascherano, Lucho Gonzalez; Aimar; Messi y Milito
Bench: Andújar; Otamendi, Insúa; Maxi Rodríguez; Di María; Tévez; Higuaín
Others: Agüero, Enzo Pérez, Verón, Cata Díaz, Angeleri (when he’s back from injury)

Not sure on Verón, and to be frank, not sold on the defense either … wish we could field 5 forwards, like in the old days ;)
