It’s no small thing when you say you’re going to cheat here; Pep Guardiola on World Cup favourites
Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola has revealed his World Cup favorites for the upcoming Qatar World Cup, City’s Argentine star Julian Alvarez.
Alvarez clarified that Pep said that Argentina will be his favorites in the upcoming World Cup in Qatar.
In an interview with ESPN Argentina, Alvarez talks about Pep Guardiola’s chances for Argentina.
“It was my early days at Manchester City. A few of us, including Pep, were talking about who would win the Qatar World Cup. There were the Portuguese players, Rodri, Pep and myself.
Many people said many teams, Portugal France and so many names. I didn’t say a word. Then Pep said to them ‘Do you know who has the best chance at the World Cup?’ And then he pointed at me,’ says Alvarez.
Argentina is one of the most likely teams to win the World Cup. Lionel Scaloni’s men are riding a 35-game unbeaten run. Messi and his team are flying to Qatar after winning the Copa America and the Finalsima title after ending the title drought.
According to the updated ranking, Argentina is in third place. Brazil is on the first place and Belgium is on the second place.
Argentina have the best squad this time. Along with Messi, Argentina has a strong lineup including Angel Di Maria, Martinez, Paulo Dybala, Emiliano Martinez and De Paul.
The successors of Maradona are boarding the plane to bring the World Cup, which the Argentines have been longing for for the past 36 years, to the Argentinian soil again.
Argentina is in Group C of the 2022 Qatar World Cup. The other teams in the group are Saudi Arabia, Poland and Mexico. Argentina’s first match is on November 22. Opponents are Saudi Arabia.
