CheesePlease: You dont need the best coach in the world to go far in the competition.

Team chemistry is the main factor in determining success. I think Argentina has that within their players who seem to all play a similar type of football style. Their attackers are gutsy enough to take on defenders rather than just passing the ball around them (which isnt a bad thing)

Stil,l coaches have a massive sway over teams. More than they get credit for at times. (Just see how Australia go this year without Hiddink)

Argentina no doubt have some fantastic forwards (including the current best in the world) and will probably do well. But, imo Argentina are just paying back Maradona for his years of service and he isn't really the best man for the job.

Booyah. And Kewell is apparently pulling up well too. Australia might be in with a chance of making it out of the group stage after all.
