  1. Except for the ridiculous look (pink socks, painted hair, beard etc.) he was not himself yesterday. Had a mediocre game (by his standards).

    Without Aguero, Icardi must be called!

  2. Tigre – Estudiantes

    Damonte -Ascacibar is perfect pair of DMs. Israel Damonte is real deep lying playmaker. Engaged and active both defensively and attack. Yesterday with goal and few days ago with assist. Great player, unfortunately he is 34 years old.

    And Bauza should follow LF Lucas Janson. This is the same type of player that Aguero and the same level of talent. But Janson is better dribbler and unlike Aguero really brisk, active without ball. In defence as well.

    • And duo V-V – Veron Vivas – is doing fantastic things in Estudiantes. First as president the club, the secon as a coach. The team is great mariage experience, matured players with youngsters.

      Veron priority is invest on youngsters and together with Vivas they are intoruducing them succesfully. Players born in ’97 have even numbers 5 and 10 on their back (other players born in the year are near). Ascacibar, Rodriguez, Cavallaro, Diarte, Bailone, Solari, Gonzalez Pirez, Gomez, Cascini, Quintana.

      Vivas should take Argentina youth teams.

    • And Bauza should follow LF Lucas Janson. This is the same type of player that Aguero and the same level of talent. But Janson is better dribbler and unlike Aguero really brisk, active without ball. In defence as well.

      That’s why Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern München all want Lucas Jansson, right ? Where Aguero stood at Jansson’s age ? Close to 100 goals in Atletic Madrid, 2 U20 WC title (in 2007 nearly single-handedly), Olympics, Europa League, star player in a big spanish club etc. Janson played 10 good matches in a worldwide mediocre league, and scored 7 goals in his whole career ? And no Janson has no the same talent than Aguero, not even close.

      • Yes, he is the same talent and even more. Today Aguero is so languid and logy to Janson. No matter what Aguero did in the same age when he is now almost useless for NT. Talent is talent and no matter when he emerged and how many goals scored till his 22. There are later matured big talents and there are early shed blossom talents. Aguero never was as good as he was seemed to be.

      • “That’s why Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern München all want Lucas Jansson, right ?”

        DOn’t be ridiculous. None indicator. Real or Brcelona wanted players like Lautaro Martinez, Vietto or Martin Benitez while none of them is as good as Janson.

        Csabalala, you even didn’t saw Janson I’m sure. You just talking and estimating about numbers as always. And it’s very unmatured. Whoscored is place for you. WHy NT coaches are going always to stadiums (and not Whoscored) to see interesting for them players?

        • Well said Gonzalo.

          Its funny how so many people rate a player by what clubs are following him. They think that is the main indicator of talent. Instead of sitting and watching a player play throughout a season, they would rather make their analysis via Goal.Com or WhoScored.

          This is why I stress to other posters here, for a season, stop following these European players and begin watching the Argentina’s topflight.

          • If they are hearing about some player then first of all is look for Whoscored. Therafter highlights and compilations of his best kicks and only afterwards sometimes full game. But rather not if it’s full game of Primera Division. It’s underground for them.

            There are teams I’m watching every game since almost 2 years: Independiente, Estudiantes, Tigre. Almost every game of: River, Boca, Velez, Rosario Cental, Newell’s.

            If I were to estimate for instance Janson only after clubs following him or compilations of his best kicks I would overlook him but long time I’m watching every Tigre game and it’s my opinion based on live games.
