the strength of Argentina squad is underestimated. EMI Martinez is probably the most underrated keeper in football. lautaro Martinez I'm expecting to have his best tournament in his career. I strongly believe dybala and Messi can play on the pitch at the same time. the midfield is possibly the strongest it's ever been with lo Celso and paredes. the back 4 has always been Argentinas weakness but it will be much stronger then I can remember.
saudi arabia is actually underrated, they finished on top of their group ahead of japan. the last world cup the russian cheats had an unfair advantage over them as russia faked the doping reports in all their matches, then lost 1-0 to uruguay and won against egypt
Pablo doesn’t understand British English lol
Why is there no mention of his titles with Manchester city, but chose to mention the Copa Del Ray instead…what a joke

Argentina will win the World Cup. Remember this comment

❤️??❤️
Messi always has it easy ?
Netherlands will knock them out in the quarterfinals.
That's what I hate most about pundits that aren't well versed in English: too many jokes go over their heads. Dan is the king of sarcasm, and Zabaleta totally missed the joke to start the segment.
Pablo still struggling with Dan Thomas’ style of banter.
He`s sat in front of a Bill Shankly famous quote
Listen, Man United might not thank me but get the contract out, put it on the table. Let him sign it, let him write whatever numbers he wants to put on there, given what he's done since he's come in. RANGNICK'S (Ole 3.0) at the wheel, man. He's doing it. He's doing his thing. MAN UNITED ARE BACK!!!
I think Argentina will fare better than last time when they scraped through their group
The way the groups are set up, there is a possibility of Argentina vs Portugal final.. If they both keep on winning I think they won't meet before the final
