So Higuain and Maradona had a not 'cold' meeting

So the drama goes on, with Argentina heading into a huge show down with arch rival Brazil, and once again it appears that the Real Madrid striker, who tallied 22 goals last season, is not needed by Maradona, although they had a nice little "get together." Not really sure why Maradona does not see value in the player, he can obviously score goals, can play as the second striker or wide on the right. Of course Argentina does have a some solid offensive options - Messi, Tevez, Aguero, to name a few. Just not sure how you can leave a player who led Real Madrid in scoring and can give you some options offensively at home.

Hmmmm play on the right wing...he would look nice as the right winger in France's 4-2-3-1 formation....just a thought.

What I fear is that Les Bleus may need Higuain during qualifiers...like the next two games against Romania and Serbia! My heart tells me that he may one day play for Les Bleus, my head tells me he is destined for Argentina, which is really how it should be.

With regards to the world cup, first I am hoping they qualify and if so I think getting to a 1/4 final would be the goal. This team is in too much flux to really contend when you look at nations such as Spain, Holland and Brazil and how they are clicking.

France is a team that can beat Brazil like they already did I think 3 times in a row. But they are also a team that can fail to qualify for the world cup like 90 and 94, and that's when they had good players like Contana.

I think all they need is confidence. All you hear from the players and coach before a match is "Its going to be hard" or "That team is very good." They need to know that they are also in a good team and get their confidence back. Frankly i think the only way they can do that is to get rid of the coach.
