Will ARGENTINA play for the win?

COOGI · 06-21-10, 06:18 PM

i think they do they might rest player but ... they still have many good bench player ..Milito.....is one of them......AGuero.. and many more ...they will slam Greece like they did to S.korea

fisel · 06-21-10, 06:24 PM

Can't see them playing like they did against S Korea but..

Aguero and Milito are still one of the best front lines in the competition, both will be eager to prove themselves. Messi hasn't scored yet so he will play and will be looking to get on the score sheet.

I doubt Argentina will push as hard as Greece but with Greece needing nothing but a win they will be cut open by Argentina on the counter.

There B team is something most teams in the cup could only dream of in their wildest fantasies, the players coming in will try even harder to try and make it into the normal starting 11. A fantastic performance could give them a shot at more playing time in the next round.

An argument could be made that Aguerro could have a greater impact than Tevez and that Millito is the better striker than Higuain, we are talking about a striker who scored in the most important games at the highest level. This team is no "reserve" team, they deserve more respect than that.

Don't think Argentina are not going to bother.

We all want to see Argentina playing as the big team they are, so that means, seing Argentina win every game they have, no matter wath team they have on the other banch.... that includes Mexico incase they pass!

ciynister19 · 06-21-10, 07:55 PM

They will play enough to get ready for the next round. Win or Go Home.

D3 Mighty Ducks · 06-21-10, 07:58 PM

I like the Under 2.5 in this match-up. There was no way Greece was beating Nigeria 11 on 11. It took a Nigerian player to get sent off just for Greece to score twice (2nd goal & game winner was a crap goal). Argentina doesn't have the top spot locked up 100% yet so I don't see them taking anyone lightly. Under 2.5 or Argentina ML seems about right.

suckerforparlays · 06-21-10, 08:24 PM

Argentina will play Greece hard

wasabee · 06-21-10, 08:38 PM

Teams cant afford to loose.
The moral of a team goes down the drain after a loss.

Argentina wins this one.
Yeah they will save/rest some players but no way are they going to "not try to win" this game.

steviec27 · 06-21-10, 08:49 PM

No doubt in my mind Argentina will take this as serious as any other game and should thump a dreadful Greece side, 3-0 at a guess lol.

Even if they rest one or two players which i aint even sure they will, they have world class players on the bench who would/will be playing in the hope of pushing their way into the starting lineup.

Lukledinio · 06-21-10, 08:52 PM

they will come out serious its the world cup it isnt time to play around .

Sandro777 · 06-21-10, 10:45 PM

here's a prop

Any other result than Greece winning and argentina no goals -178

I might pound it.

Not bad worth a few units

Sandro777 · 06-21-10, 11:20 PM

I think it has to be a mistake line. No way that anything but a greece win with a scoreless argentine is a -170 line.... no way. Consequently Argentina winning and greece no goals is +970 on 5dimes? Has to be an error. They cancelled my bet on a similiar prop couple days ago.

Socrates · 06-21-10, 11:23 PM

I'm banking on it. C'mon Argentina, don't let me down. Give Greece a beat down.

MPiPs · 06-21-10, 11:39 PM

I like this line personally: Argentina wins & Greece no goals* +978

spirta · 06-21-10, 11:54 PM

Will be a close game, but Argentina still my favorite for win.

mdemps9190 · 06-22-10, 12:34 AM

bet both those lines. +978 and -178. Like em both. GREAT value

weak...
i opened up an account and deposited just for that prop lol

Sandro777 · 06-22-10, 02:03 AM

I mean think about it.... Argentina is ML -170 or something. This prop is -178 and include the follow results to win - any type of draw, argentina scoring a goal, argentina winning. How could that largely expanded possibilities only result in -008? Any why is Arg. to win greece no goals +970? Arg has only given up one goal and greece isnt known for offense...

Although if the line is still up at 2:20 i will put all my money on it lol.

Thomas_Garber · 06-22-10, 02:07 AM

argentina clinched first place, there is no value in betting the money line here.

maradona a has lot of financial problems...used to be a drug addict and he took the coaching job for the money.

i wouldnt be surprise if his associates are on the Greece money line here....ya its a far stretch but its perfect opportunity since this game is meaning less for Argentina.

I am not going to bet this.

What a load of shite!

Anyways, Argentina will win today. Messi is starting and will be accompanied by Aguero and Milito. Both are really good players and will be trying to convince Maradona to start them. Also, Veron will replace Mascherano in midfield, which means more creativity.

Glada Tartan · 06-22-10, 02:56 AM

Argentina will play with the reserve players all the way... anyhow.. cant see them as a weak team despite that.. and have in thought that the reserves will do anything to show off and find a place in the starting eleven...

Reserves like... MILITO

fuglyboy86hi · 06-22-10, 04:41 AM

mihaita666 · 06-22-10, 05:08 AM

Argentina feels like a trap somehow

How r u so sure? They already will advance. What incentive will they have besides injury?

winM · 06-22-10, 06:57 AM

Greece are poor in defence! Argentina should win this game!

McBa1n · 06-22-10, 08:33 AM

Meh, these kind of games are too risky. I trust Argentina to play hard enough to win, unlike other teams that have clinched their spot in the next round - but this is always a danger situation.

Glada Tartan · 06-22-10, 08:37 AM

I dont think the line is worth the risk... The greeks did win EC in 2004 and can come up with surprising results.. Argentina might be lazy and underestimate the hungry hungry greeks..

Might be worth a shot @ both to score!

Euphoria38 · 06-22-10, 08:42 AM

argentina is resting a midfielder and a defender because of yellow card issues... Greece played well against Nigeria... tough call.

samitarian · 06-22-10, 08:46 AM

but veron should be coming back, he is a massive plus to argentina's chances

MRcool2035 · 06-22-10, 08:57 AM

They better play for the win and they better win my many goals
