Argies Or 'Sweaty Socks' To Win? That's A Tough Call!

Argentina and Scotland meet in Glasgow on Wednesday, as some sort of celebration of everything anti-English.

God bless them, I say. Give then their 15 minutes of fame, then it's back to dreams of qualifying for the World Cup and Champions League.

Will our two stars feature ... Fabricio Coloccini and Jonas Gutierrez?

Only Maradona knows, but there is a chance at least one of the pair will play because Juan Roman Riquelme and Lionel Messi will be missing.

Maradona: "We must not stand there with our arms crossed just because we cannot count on Riquelme nor Messi. We must search for variety, options, and we have them.

"Even without them, we will play for victory against Scotland."

"I feel like I never left.

"I feel the same perfume, the same smell, the same need, the same motivation, the same commitment."

The smell of perfume? Seems he's started pushing something up his nose already!
