Who will win?

Spain is very strong
Argentina has enough great players to make 2 or 3 competitive teams
Spain plays at home
Gaudio has lost only 1 match (Kafelnikov, who saved 2 match points)
Spain..... plays at home
Coria is unbeatable now
Spain..... er, well they play at home
Argentina is back to the times of Vilas and Clerc
Spain..... will have the cheering of the people
Argentina will have a lot of people there too.

this tie is going to be fantastic ...everyone that gets to see this, consider yourselves very very lucky and feel sorry for the poor poor people who are stuck with aus vs switzerland :retard: !!!

couldnt pick a winner...may the best team win and hope to see them kick australia in december :angel:

 

[Laury]

Argentina will win

The team may be:
Gaudio
Nalbandian
Coria

But the only one who plays doubles is Nalbandian, so Lucas Arnold will go too.
I hope David will play because Gaudio always plays (and always wins) and Coria is in his best moment.

I think that home advantage can go a long way to help a team to victory in Davis Cup, but Argentina are the strongest team by far at the moment. Moya, Costa and Corretja are not at their best these days, and, as Catriel says, there will be a lot of support there for Argentina! There will certainly be a big group of us from England going over to support them - I am counting the days and can hardly wait - it should be the most AMAZING atmosphere! And what about Mariano Zabaleta for the team - he has been playing great recently, winning Bastad and a semi-finalist in Kitzbuehel, - he's a pretty good doubles player too!
What does anyone else think?

VAMOS ARGENTINA!

Love,

Rosie

don't forget ferrero for spain

 

[bluepastures]

Sky mentioned during their Montreal ATP masters coverage a couple of days ago, that all of the Spain V Argentina match will be televised live here in the UK. I think it will be a very exciting tie, with Argentina winning it.

 

[*Ljubica*]

A friend has just called me to say that they have announced the Argentine team, and it will be Coria, Gaudio, Nalbandian and Calleri.... Can anyone tell me if this is actually official or not?

 

[esther]

Spain vs Argentina will be on in the UK?!!!! OMG are you sure??? coz i was really sad coz i'll be on holidays in england during DC and thought i'd completely miss it!! Is Sky pay tv?

 

[*Ljubica*]

Hi Esther, - yes Sky TV is a satellite channel (pay TV). If you are staying in a Hotel, then the chances are you will have access to it anyway as most decent Hotels have it installed as standard. If you are with friends then it would depend whether they have it set up or not, - often the tennis is actually shown on a separate Digital Sky Channel called Sky Sports Extra (Channel 404) - hope that helps - whereabouts in England are you going?

 

[esther]

rosie- no i'm staying with relatives and they live like...3 hours from London?!!! i forget which part they live in exactly lol but i'm goign to ask them if they have that channel but i seriously doubt it. Shame because we're going to stay in London for a few days as well in a hotel but i dont think i'll be in london for that DC weekend. thanks for your help ..i'll get back to you and hope for me that they do have the channel!! but i'm not getting my hopes up...if i was in melbourne i wouldnt see it neway so yeah *shrugs*

 

[esther]

yeah doesn't look ilke i will end up seeing it...oh well.
i hope someone who gets to see it will be nice enough to do a few match reports?

 

[*Ljubica*]

OK Esther, - I promise I will file some match reports when I get back from Malaga I might even post some photos if I take any that are good enough(!), but I get VERY nervous when I watch Guillermo play so my hands will probably be skaking too much to hold the camera straight!

 

[esther]

oh thanks Rosie!!! Actually forgot for a second that you were actually GOING...will suck that i miss this DC tie...i would have only followed it on the net and stuff but yeah hopefully it will be a weekend for everyone that gets to see it!!

are you going for the whole 3 days rosie? thanks in advance for the match reports

 

[*Ljubica*]

Yes, I'm going for the whole 3 days Esther, - we bought our tickets absolutely ages ago! It should be a wonderful atmosphere and a great experience, - we will have to make a LOT of noise though, because we Argentina fans are going to be badly outnumbered!

 

[esther]

lucky lucky girl rosie!! No doubt, it'll definately be a great experience and looks like it will be a very high quality tie...yeah make all the noise you can for guillermo and the rest of the argies!! what is it...26 days away? something like that

 

[*Ljubica*]

Yes, you're right Esther, - it start in 26 days time - not that I'm counting the days or anything! Just can't wait to see my Guillermo again(!), - I was in Stuttgart when he won the Final there, and although that was only last month it feels like an age away - guess that's just because I'm totally crazy about him, but at least I admit it......!

 

[esther]

hehe nothing wrong with being in love with guillermo...isn't a hard thing to do... ok thanks again for the match reports and hope you have a great time seeing coria

Thankfully at least one of us (me) is obnoxious
