Part of this is that in its hubris US Soccer has spent a year over selling the potential competitiveness of our side in this competition much as it did in World Cup 1998 and 2006. Based on the recent friendlies a similar disaster awaits. It's important to understand for much of the world the first month of European club football doesn't really matter. They don't sympathize with the likes of Werder Bremen and Barcelona , and see the clubs as unreasonable. After all when you sign players of an international caliber you assume the risks.

World Champ Italy are also here and they are here for real reasons, and so are Netherlands (remember their Marauding run in Euro.) And with these four teams in Semis football is a sure watch out in the Olympics......No-one ever watches a 1000m run!! Its not just about Argentina and South American soccer.

Professional football has no place in the Olympics. It has more than enough on the agenda already and I fully support Barcelona in their stance on Messi. They pay him millions each year and he will miss vital games and runs the risk of being injured. Total rubbish in my opinion. Can’t disagree more. Professional football has no place in the Olympics.

We'll probably line up like this: Ustari; Zabaleta-Pareja-Garay-Monzon; Mascherano-Gago; Messi-Riquelme; Lavezzi-Agüero. Other then that: good article imo. VAMOS ARGENTINA CARAJO!
