Its not 'one game confirmation bias' tho (<- that is just really awful by the way) I even stated that I'd seen it over and over and over.

Sure, hes probably punted 100 goals past Real Zaragoza or Malaga or whatever, but for Argentina when the chips are down and they turn to him he tends to wilt.

Believe it or not Messi has played more than 1 game that I've seen. I love your 'confirmation bias tho' because you in all of your infinite wisdom just assumed that I made a statement based on only ever seeing Messi play 1 game.

You know what they say about assumptions?

And once again Argentina were playing with every attacking option on the field.

Anyhoodles, onto more current news, my Brother-in-Law is in a World Cup pool at work and knows little about soccer so he asked for me help, he had to pick two teams and unfortunately he selected last, so its his turn to pick and Belgium and Croatia were still on the board, so I'm pulling for them!

Unfortunately Croatia's primary National Export is 'crippling disappointment.'
