This team will win the World Cup!
Who on this team do you think is that bad? You guys will be lucky to have 20% ball possesion against a team this skilled.

utah todd,
i advise you to watch the game Spain – Serbia & Montenegro (1:1). 80% ball posession for spain during first half, but in the second half we almost scored for 2:1. we dont fear teams like argentina and hollan, who want to posess the ball and dominate the game. they can run against our wall as long as they want ;)

It is great to have a wall but you give players with speed and talent like Messi and tevez not to mention passing like Riquleme and you will have problems. To beat Argentina you will have to score at least two goals and I dont think that you have the ofense to do so. Good luck with the other two games which are very winable for you. but you wont beat Argentina if they have the ball all the time. They ar just to skilled. Not to mention speedy.

Argentina’s offense isn’t good enough to score against SM’s defense… only Brazil can probably do it. :)

Messi and Tevez and Riquelme are OVERRATED …your dropping these names as if they were some kind of voodoo puppets. I dont think that Argentina can cause any harm to our defence and above that we also have a good midfield and a terriffic pair of strikers with zigic and kezman.

I have got no idea why you guys are making a song and dance about argentinas squad. We have 5-6 players who wont even make an apperance on the pitch.

You people are funny if you think argentina are nobodies. I’m eagarly anticipating this match now.

Pablo Aimar will be enough to take you guys on.

Argentina is simply a spiritless big name team that will fail to live up to the great expectations placed on it by pyschopathic Argentine fans.

If the tournament was down in South America, Argentina would do great, but with Pekerman picking a questionable team and the big players being exhausted from the long European season I see Argentina doing another 2002 nosedive.

Argentina left J.Zanneti out from the squad. What a BIG mistake. Also I think that Holland team is too weak to make damage in this World Cup, and I think that S & M team are best in this group, and I think that they are clear winners in this group. Forza S & M

I really dont care much about the argentine team. They can pass the group …I dont care, but they wont win against us. They are overrated and nothing special in my eyes.

Napred Plavi !

S & M and Argentina will go through from this group, that’s for sure. The Serbs have enough power to do that, and Argentinians are playing very beautifull and modern football. Napred PLAVI

Yes argentines play a beautiful football, but Ive seen them twice in the last year. Once against Brazil in the Confed Cup final, where they lost 1:4, playing less than mediocre and the second time against Crotaia, losing 2:3, where they showed lots of weaknesses. Even if you consider croatia stronger than Serbia (what I dont really think), Serbia has a chance of winning against them. Im 100% sure about that ;)

I disagree on the fact we have pschopath fans who believe the world cup can only be won by them.

On the contrary. We believe we have a chance as do the dutch,czech,england,italy and france and other teams as well. However far ahead of these teams is Brazil.

I’m not going to disrespect any of our group opponents and firmly believe that any of the four teams can qualify of the second round, such is the quality of four squads.

Don’t write of Pekerman as an idiot. He’s got plans and has thrown out some of our big players.

Yes, Brazil are very big favourites, but i’m sure that they wouldn’t be world champions. Pressure is on them and with so many stars I yust think that they will not get the title. And of course I must say that S & M are far better than Croatia :-) . Forza PLAVI

tevez and messi overrated?!?!? please, how stupid do you have to be to make that kind of comment. tevez is the best player in brazil right now and chelsea are rumored to want him. messi is barca’s and the entire world’s future. maradona has already praised him as his successor. serbia and montenegro has no one even HALF as skilled as those players. riquelme, crespo, messi, tevez, saviola, aimar. all those guys would be stars on your nameless team. also, s & m are the most boring team to watch, they kill the sport of football. play some offense for a change. argentina will destroy s & m, i am only worried about ivory coast. holland has no defense and their offense isnt as strong as ours.

Fed you make me laught. Be serious. Stankovic has more power and character then all those argentinian players together. S & M are a class team. Remember that…

Im not worried about either Argentina nor holland. You might have “big” names, but if your a good “team” this will be seen. Croatia beat you “BIG” names with 3:2 and I consider them weaker than Serbia, for some pretty good reasons. So enjoy adoring and worshipping your Voodoo puppets and Posters of your Argentinian heroes and we will see what happens on the pitch ;)

Cheers

Best luck next time dude!

PS: Wouldn’t be better to rename the blog to just Serbia or whatever your new name is?
