Argentina under Maradona were always either gonna win the whole thing or fail miserably. His team selections have been absolutely horrid, playing four centrebacks, one midfielder, and five forwards (also, Jonas fucking Gutierrez in the group stage
). The FA needs him to gtfo asap, would be a shame to see a talent like Messi not being able to reach his full potential on the international stage because of inept coaching. This team would have donned it:
Tevez - D. Milito - Messi
Pastore
Cambiasso - Mascherano
C. Rodriguez - Samuel - G. Milito - Zanetti
Romero
Take note Maradona, a balanced formation and proper fullbacks. Also, your best fucking midfielder who you excluded from the squad for whatever reason. Fun fact: Maradona included Ariel Garce in his squad, a little known defender playing in the Argentinian league, for the sole reason that he had a dream where they had won the World Cup and Garce was the only player he could remember.
