They are always saying that there is something in the water to make the Argentine footballers so good with the ball at their feet. Some of that water must be trickling into Uruguay because their footballers are great too! I was watching GOLTV's "100 Best Goals of the Year" and they had one of Nic Lodeiro's there, with Nacional. You can see how good he is, how tricky, and he is short with a low centre of gravity just like a lot of Argentines (Kun and Ever come to mind).
This is why the Urus are favourites for me at the WC. Look at the talent they have! Nic should be there. Forlan! Abreu! Lugano! And I heard one pundit on TV talking about Luis Suarez and how he might be the best striker around atm. And he wondered why no big English club had gone after him yet.
Not only the strikers are good. ALL their players are good. They have it ALL, all the way down to the GKs! Why can they not do well?
