He's still held in high regard in only two places: Newell's Old Boys (their stadium is even named after him) and in Chile, for making the team competitive for once... Only for Claudio Borghi, Jorge Sampaoli and and Juan Antonio Pizzi actually win stuff with them.
Other than that? Yeah, he's overrated to hell and back.

You forgot Leeds United

So Brazil vs Japan. My heart wants to say Japan but numbers make me want to say Brazil. If Japan does win it would be a goal in extra time and if it came down to a shoot out I would give it to Brazil.

EDIT: I should pick Brazil to win the same way I picked SA to win.

Watching Invictus kick the ball directly to Canada over and over got kind of boring after about 15 minutes.

Of course.

Bravo timmy

Holy fuck I love Japan

 

[Mussolini’s Merkin]

Hell of a goal by Japan. Hopefully they can keep it up, nothing makes me happier than seeing Brazil lose.

Him (Bielsa), Beccacece and Sampaoli are smoke merchants. I have no clue how they keep failing upwards instead of being where they deserve: cleaning the bathrooms of the stadiums.

That's football management for you.

Imagine you, very publicly, get the sack from working for Wallgreens.

Do you think that Walmart would contact you and offer you the same job in their store?

No. No they would not.

Brazil losing in the Ro32 would be the biggest upset of the entire World Cup. And god, I hope it happens.

 

[Chad Holdenford]

I don't remember the last time I've been so nervous over a football match. It's a nail-biter, but Brazil is in control now.

Just... Hit the fucking target for once!

 

[Mister Ferro]

The fake Jap lets Brazil score at the very last second and Japan loses.

 

[A Mistake]

GET FUCKED YOU JAPANESE FAGGOTS
*respectfully

 

[Dixieland Buckaroo]

gg, Brazil. Carry your heads high, Blue Samurai. That should have been a Quarter Final game, not a round of 32.

Both of these teams would wipe the floor with Canada. That's the real travesty, the shit seeding.
