WHat an useless side...and people brand them faves before every event, yet their last major victory was in 86, when most of us werent even born. They have MEssi and who? And messi is overrated, starring in the weak spain league, where u have 3 or 4 strong teams thats it.Compare that with EPL and the english teams which has stars like gerrard,rooney, lampard etc who can walk into this argentina team.
People should really stop comparing Messi with the greatest of all time Maradona. He was totally out of breath, out of clue, out of form, out of skill, out of focus last night against Colombia. He definitely needs his Barca buddies to fire. Tevez, Higuaine, Aguero were no better. Colombia deserved to win last night's match. They outplayed Argentina many times. The Argentina Goalie really excelled.
It is really sad our athletes, some of whom are from very humble background and from small locations who have given their best ever performance in CWG and in ASIADS are being targeted as ‘cheats’. There were no DOPE test failures then and when the entire country is expectantly looking forward to once again Best ever performance in 2012 London Olympics, then comes the unexpected Kalmadi’s Tihar sojourn and suddenly this DOPE scam, like a bolt from the blue breaks out in the media and hits at the very credibility of our athletes. Most of the atheletes who have failed DOPE TEST are junior most and would hardly expected to know so much details about DOPING etc. They must have been fully depended upon their coaches, mgt etc.Given this background, now, let me come straight to the point. How many of Kalmadis’ henchmen are loitering about in various sports bodies and whether VK Malhtra, who has taken over from Kalmadi and who is a straight and simple man can handle all Kalmadi’s men ?
