| Being Argentine as Gonzalo, I think he'll never be like Kaka. I don't also think he's that good. Just because you have good matches in a row doesn't mean you're a crack. And River is playing horribly, neither this guy can improve the team :/ (argh, and this sunday - my birthday by the way! :D - is the big derby! Boca-River) Let's see what can this guy offer. Although I don't have good vibes from this guy, I would really like to see an argentine player in Milan. Since Crespo left, I feel quite 'away' from it. Argh, why do all south american (including lots of argentines) go to Inter!? :rant: |
