FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread

[Strongkored]

I carefully listened to the comments made by Lionel Scaloni, while he was talking to TyC Sports. He didn't said explicitly that he had fallen out with Messi. For those who believe in the rumors, there is a lot to read between the lines. For me it sounded like he has achieved whatever he wanted to achieve with Argentina, and therefore he wanted to move on. I always thought that Scaloni had an excellent relationship with Messi over the years, and for me there is not enough proof to suggest that anything has changed overnight. 

I also read about the news about the interview and it became a problem when the media saw that something bad was happening with Lionel Messi and the coach's communication on the field so they connected about the interview to be able to create a rumor that would bring profit to the media because searches on the internet would increase with the keyword Messi and Scaloni and people who read the news half-heartedly or just the headlines will immediately draw conclusions and there's no need to question it because no national team coach can repeat his achievements in the same team and usually when they get the title he will go to another team even though not right away so that's normal and just like a cycle that happens to other teams too.

Football is indeed a team sport, and success on the field often involves the collective efforts of players, coaching staff, and support personnel.

I agree with you. But still, the presence of big players will really determine the direction of the team's game. This can be seen from the many great players who have had a huge influence on the national team. This can be seen from Wales who have Bale and Haaland for Norway.

Overall this is a collective game but still a great player like Messi also really influences the mentality of the team and other players.

I agree with you even in the most recent world cup where that was won by Argentina, the influence of Messi on the team can't be overly emphasized as his presence helped their morale and also kept their confidence strong enough till the finals where they won, the presence of a big name in the team does not only help the team but also scares other teams.

Norway have got more chances of qualifications due to the presence of haland who has helped them get more goals to victory, the list can go on about big players who has helped their national teams attained heights they wouldn't have ordinarily, same Also can be seen in clubs. The mentally and confidence of a team is no doubt boosted greatly when they have the presence of big players in their team, although the collectiveness of the team performance to achieve victory cannot be underestimated and that's why they give awards and the trophy to the team as a whole whenever they win at the end of every game.

I think right now football is actually changing. Just as we saw a time very recently where the team which had the most fast players were able to win, now there is a transition going on. Now the team which can play well with all the players available, the team which actually are capable of playing well as a team, is going to win. That's what we saw in this World Cup with Argentina right?

So, I think now even though every team is going to need attackers who have good pace, they are still going to need a team that is good overall.

Well.. I also don't believe in these stupid rumors. At least on the outside it looks as if Lionel Scaloni and Lionel Messi enjoy excellent bonding. If Scaloni leaves for one of the UEFA clubs, then I am sure that it will be due to financial reasons. And the Argentine Football Association (Asociación del Fútbol Argentino), needs to think about it. This guy won them the world cup in 2022. There is no excuse in not rising his paycheck to match those offers from Real Madrid or any of the other clubs. He deserves it, IMO.

I can't believe Argentina is about to stop working with Scaloni because of Messi, Messi is already old and he can't play on his team for a long time but Scaloni can't have good performance in this team and he has good results for far even in the important match they had against Brazil. But the chairman of this team, Claudio Tapia didn't even say anything about Scaloni recently when he was talking on media and it's not surprising to see Scaloni leave the team because of one player before the 2026 World Cup.
  

He might be the best player that ever played for their history, and not like this is some small time nation neither, they are a football culture nation that created the greatest player maybe ever. You may think Messi is not the best player ever, but you also have to accept the fact that many people think he is, and because of this he has a lot of influence in his own nation as well. Put Messi in another nation and a lot of nations do end up getting the world cup at least once as well.

This is why I highly suggest that it would be smart decision to put something like this at play as well. I get that it may not be all that "smart" but he has that influence thanks to all that he has achieved so far in his life for Argentina.

FIFA has decided to drop NFTs. The first 100 owners a chance to get tickets to the final of 2026 World Cup. The NFTs will be available in Polygon blockchain.

https://www.theblock.co/post/267031/fifa-drops-nfts-that-offer-chance-at-world-cup-final-tickets-moves-to-polygon

The decision to issue digital collectibles was announced this week. A total of 1,000 items will be made available and they can be purchased from the OpenSea platform. Previously they were planning to use the Algorand blockchain for the NFTs, but then moved to Polygon. Some of the previous FIFA NFTs were issued using Algorand, and I am not sure why they decided to move to Polygon.

I also read about the news about the interview and it became a problem when the media saw that something bad was happening with Lionel Messi and the coach's communication on the field so they connected about the interview to be able to create a rumor that would bring profit to the media because searches on the internet would increase with the keyword Messi and Scaloni and people who read the news half-heartedly or just the headlines will immediately draw conclusions and there's no need to question it because no national team coach can repeat his achievements in the same team and usually when they get the title he will go to another team even though not right away so that's normal and just like a cycle that happens to other teams too.

Coach has higher position than team captain, I think Lionel Scaloni get less communication from Lionel Messi when returning back from the field and Messi should ask opinion from Lionel  Scaloni before he made decision leaves the field. To make all problem clear between both them I think Messi must ask apology to Scaloni how ever Argentina head coach has higher contribution by helping Argentina won FIFA World Cup 2022. Every where, head coach has higher position than captain and Lionel Messi should learn more respect with the manager who ever he is the best player but less attitude will bring bad impact in the future.
Bad thing if Scaloni have leaves his position than Lionel Messi with age have been over yet and I don't sure if Scaloni have leaves his position Argentina keep on the quit performance or not.

Scaloni is great coach, he succeeded in bringing Argentina to the 2021 Copa America and 2022 World Cup, this is very good two season achievement for Argentina.
However, Scaloni previously had dispute with Messi, but the main reason for the problem was not yet clear because there was no official statement from both parties.
The large number of rumors circulating can indeed give rise to bad thoughts and views for football fans because rumors circulate very quickly and many news providers even exaggerate the reality to get hype from their readers.
Believing too much in rumors is also not very useful because not all of the rumors circulating are based on the reality of what actually happened.

Scaloni has given an official statement that he and Messi will meet to discuss the Argentina squad and he will make several changes, from this it can be stated that Scaloni no longer has any disagreements.
Moreover, Scaloni also stated that he had resolved his problems with Messi and he considered Messi to still be very important part of the Argentina squad.
Messi can still play for the 2024 Copa America but for the World Cup there is still no clear certainty, it just that Scaloni said that if Messi succeeds in bringing Argentina to win the 2024 Copa America then he will be included in the 2026 World Cup players.

I know Scaloni is in a higher rank than Messi and normally this player should respect his coach in this team but the fact about Scaloni and Messi is about the popularity of Messi in his country. Since Messi is a hero in Argentina, that's a risk for any coach to start fighting with him and obviously in this situation, the best thing they can do is to respect this player even to leave the team before they get fired from the team.

Argentina's team management will never even consider sacking Messi. Messi is a world-class good player, so the Argentine team management and the Argentine government respect him enough. Scaloni is undoubtedly a good course in Argentina. So for the sake of the team, Messi and Scaloni should participate in the 2026 World Cup together and the Argentina team should play well. Because if the maximum Messi plays, the 2026 World Cup will be his last World Cup. Excluding Scaloni from the Argentina team management will be a kind of stupidity because Scaloni has become the world champion of Argentina in Qatar. So surely Scaloni should be given the credit he deserves.

So your opinion Lionel Messi has higher position than Argentina head coach Lionel Scaloni? I don't know how blame with Lionel Messi fans when player less respect with their manager but he not asks apology yet and want to sack Scaloni with his reputation bring Argentina become the winner Copa America and FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar. At the end, Lionel Messi will retired in Argentina national teams and actually many player will have higher level than him for replacing his position. FIFA World Cup 2022 trophy is not only Lionel Messi achievement only but also there are have team working, I think have Messi or not keep Argentina is the best national team and potential win many trophies in the future.

Even if we consider Messi a world-class player who is still in good form while he is not but I don't think if that's right for Scaloni to be out of the team because of one player. We saw Argentina had a good performance in the Qatar World Cup and they won the title also this shows how good performance Scaloni in this team but I think Messi was not everything for Argentina and even without of Messi they could have earned these titles and have a good performance now if Argentine decides to stop working with Scaloni none can guarantee their success in the 2026 world cup anymore.

Well, let's be clear about something, a hero Without cpa in Argentina was the great noodle Dimaría, he was a key guard so that Messi could shine in Argentina , Therefore whenever we mention Messi +he usually takes all the credit for himself the captain of the Team and will always be able to win the golden balls and everything that FIFA wants to give him , but we all know that the team in general is who he represents, I do not think that Messi is the best player in the world, because I think he still needs a little more, if he clearly had not had help from many, it would have been something Meritorious , I like him because he is South American, and because both he and a soccer player from this region is very good at soccer, And in the World Cup it was evident that Argentine and French football is far above German, English, and Spanish football, which is the only way we see when a team wins a World Cup, and Above all, I Rspect a team like Croatia , but Messi is just the figure, nothing more.

i know because Messi has a talent to envy, but I think Messi has given up a bit , Because he himself said that he was in a low-level league, and even if he plays in the lowest-level league that won't do that he loses his talent, but I think that sometimes he reaches those instances of playing there because of the Peace of mind that comes from working in a team where he is in a country that is not having a bad time like what Happened in Spain, where even the Treasury did the same. theirs, also in France where the fans were very terrible, I think that the Refereeing for the next World Cup must Change a lot, be helped with Technology , it has been proven that man makes a lot of mistakes and that he can be quite useful when it comes to makes erroneous decisions and that to execute the objectives it is easier to trust an AI than in the same workers and higher entities of FIFA , and it is Regrettable that they still continue like this.

Scaloni has played a key role in Argentina's national team. Of course, Argentina won the Copa America and won the 2022 World Cup with his hands. But we all would be wrong to say that Messi has no contribution to the 2022 World Cup. Because Messi is a world class best player. Leo Messi has performed brilliantly in every match in the 2022 World Cup. Messi must understand that Scaloni has a very important role for his team. So Messi should fix the relationship with Scaloni very quickly. For Scaloni no harm done to his team.

Indeed with Lionel Messi contribution helped Argentina won Copa America and FIFA World Cup 2022 trophies he must be respect with Lionel Scaloni as Argentina manager, I don't think Argentina will earn the same achievement won both trophies above if difference manager. Lionel Messi condition right now very difference and he not plays on top compete league, I don't know with fans still huge speculate with him during last two months he not play on competition yet with his team Inter Miami not qualified on playoff round. Better for Lionel Messi ask apology and fix internal problem with Scaloni, have Copa America on next edition and not good ideas if Argentina have change with their manager success gave two trophies Copa America and World Cup 2022.

Lionel Scaloni and Lionel Messi both have deadly combo for the Argentina, and they can achieve more trophies and success in the future, but things like these can create serious problems and with this we can face dilemma for the teams as well because when you have big achievements and then suddenly reports or differences like these appear in media confidence level gone down and teams gone down like crap hopefully these both will sit and try to make things much better for their team with as reports are coming most chances we will have Messi in next world cup as well which could another big achievement and with this we can expect South American dominance will take lead, and they will be won again in 2026 with 48 teams and 3 countries are preparing for this mega event.

I think that it's a true danger for Argentina to have this situation in which they have a bad relationship between Scaloni and Messi and it seems these two can't keep working together anymore. Currently, Argantina is in a good situation and even if they play in the 2026 World Cup with this team, still, Argantina can have a good chance to win the title for another time. But if they lose Scaloni before this tournament, I think can't expect to see the same performance from this team and no one knows about the future of Argentina in the 2026 World Cup anymore with their possible new coach.

Argentina is one of the best leading team when it comes to international performance in major tournaments, they don't relent and brings the very best excellence to the table. Argentina coach, Lionel Scaloni seems to have pretty problem with the board but I think he should be available for the upcoming 2026 worldcup, that would be competitive enough to hold tough countries who keep ambition to win. Menwhile Lionel Scaloni have proven to be one of the promising coach for Argentina this season. He has quite brilliant stats to implements in upcoming matches for the club.

But if they lose Scaloni before this tournament, I think can't expect to see the same performance from this team and no one knows about the future of Argentina in the 2026 World Cup anymore with their possible new coach.

The internal conflict between Lionel Messi and Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni has significant impact on Argentina's performance in future matches, especially when playing in the Copa America next year. I think the Argentine Football Association must find solution to the internal conflict between Messi and Scaloni to make the team's performance conducive again.
Although Copa America left many months always get potential with conflict internal keep continue without any solution achievement will make both of them keep on internal conflict without good impact for Argentina performance exactly when playing on Copa America June next year.

I think right now football is actually changing. Just as we saw a time very recently where the team which had the most fast players were able to win, now there is a transition going on. Now the team which can play well with all the players available, the team which actually are capable of playing well as a team, is going to win. That's what we saw in this World Cup with Argentina right?

So, I think now even though every team is going to need attackers who have good pace, they are still going to need a team that is good overall.

Yes, currently every team, whether club or national team, relies more on collective play. I don't know when this transition happened but if we look at the past when you had great strikers then your team would be very strong. But now if your team has a world-class striker but no other players of value, then you will have a hard time winning. Maybe this can happen because in modern football each line has a synergistic role. For example, you can even build attacks by today's modern defenders. So I think that's one of the reasons why collective play is more necessary now.

I think it is because now the competition is more complicated.

The sport is more complex, and there are many more techniques applied that make it more difficult for a single player to excel like they use to at the times of Pele or Maradona.

It's a different sport really these days.
