Messi is the best in the world but as a team Colombia trumps Argentina in the front.

Tata's subs were awful. Argentina totally threw the game.

Sounds familiar.

Colombia has a better front line imo.
Jackson Martinez, Falcao, J.Rodriguez, Bacca and Cuadrado


Completely disagree. Argentina has not just the best front technically, but also trumps in raw number of players on this category.

 

EDIT: I'm really surprised by Paraguay's reaction, but I'm happy at the same time cause it was deserved! Jamaica performed much better than I thought they would too, almost draw with Uruguay.

And I'm pretty excited for tomorrow cause we'll have 2 good games: Colombia and Brazil on the field!



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

You can disagree with me but the facts are that the Colombian forwards for the past year, have been performing and showing their worth better than Argentinians.

Carlos Bacca for Sevilla, Jackson Martinez has been superb for Porto, James Rodriguez on Colombia and R.Madrid has been excellent, Falcao dropped off but MU is a shitty team nowadays.

Argentina at the moment has no goal scorer if it ain't Messi. Colombia has at least 3, world class.

Plus as a squad, Colombia is a better team than Argentina, la albiceleste has many names on it but no world class team.

Like you said, Falcao dropped a lot, scoring just 4 goals in more than 25 matches last season. I can only see James being a killer player for Colombia, but I agree with out that the squad as a whole is pretty solid. I just don't think they have better players than Argentina atm, but that's fine, just my opinion (some people will agree with mine, others with yours, etc.).

Anyway, if Brazil doesn't win Copa América, I'll be rooting for Colombia this time (since Uru won a lot already and I'm not a big fan of Argentina). :p

Carlos Bacca and Jackson Martinez are better strikers than Higuain and Tevez. Actually, Argentinians don't even have a striker (goleador) in that sense, a poacher.

Well, that's true. But I don't think that's a problem when you have many high-quatily offensive players and Messi to help them. I guess we'll have to wait and see how things turn out this Cup. It surely is the most exciting since a long time ago cause there are many good teams with chances to win. 

PS: This thread should get some love... it's pretty slow atm and we're in the middle of official games. .-.

That England line-up.. gibbs, Townsend, Delph... Is that really the best from england?



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

England needs to send their youngs to play in southern Europe to vary their soccer style.
Sterling is the only one that doesn't run in straight line. XD
