(it's our world cup)
Who said Diego Maradona was an accident waiting to happen? Well he was a few days ago, not just for leaving out Javier Zanetti and Esteban Cambassiso, but when he ran over a photographer's foot after naming his World Cup squad. Surprisingly, after the surprise of the provisional squad, there were no real surprises as Diego, captain of Argentina when they last won the World Cup in 1986, pulled the final seven names from his squad.
While their goalkeeping and defensive options are not first class not many sides can match the attacking depth that Sergio Aguero, Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain, Carlos Tevez and Diego Milito.
Oh, and Martin Palermo's in there too. His physical option, and the debt that Diego owes to him for his 94th minute winner in a 2-1 World Cup Qualifying win over Peru late in the campaign, sees him take the final attacking berth ahead of Napoli's Ezequiel Lavezzi - a man who enjoys the sort of adulation in Naples not seen since Maradona brought the League title to the San Paolo in the late 80s
