Would be fun if Aguero lifts the WC in Russia as captain.

Wtf? Why are all of them retiring all of a sudden? Perhaps there has been some altercation amongst the players or the coach.

The good thing is Zanetti can hold on to his most capped record.

Big issues at Argentine FA which may be the underlying reason for the players retiring. I've even read somewhere that the Afa will have to be unaffiliated from Fifa. This may be the result of a court case taking place.

Can he play for Italy or is he cup tied?

As long as he didn't play a WCQ that I don't know about he can play for Italy. Friendlies don't count

He played about 10 minutes in a World Cup qualifier. Only due to a Higauin injury if I remember correctly.

If he could go back I think he might choose Italy.

True, esepcially with Tata still on the helm. This guy is just like Benitez, average coach with pisspoor player management.

Higauin and Aguero should be ashamed of their performances but not Biglia and Di Maria IMO.

As far as I remember Icardi has said that he'll never choose any other NT, only Argentina.
And Messi, the greatest retires? hahaha fuck that bitch, let him shine at barcelona, anywhere else he's useless. He ain't no Ronaldo Fenomeno, no Maradona, no Pelle. He's just BarTHelona's bitch boy.

Im sure he'll be back playing for the NT really soon..

But he's lost like 3 major international finals in a row now? That's gotta hurt, especially when teammates like Higuain keep missing sitter :lol:

Useless, as in, being the all-time leading goalscorer of a national team that has had some of the best strikers of the history of football?

He never won silverware, and that's disappointing, but not enough to call him useless.

People calling Messi a flop but forgetting that he and Mascherano dragged Argentina to a WC final when other big stars were majorly underperforming.

Getting to the final means nothing. Only winners are remembered and he has flopped 3 times in a row. Couldn't score one goal in 3 finals...
