Argentina's got plenty of talent, but the domestic league is an absolute mess (they delayed the start of the season because the individual clubs couldn't afford to pay their players) and they appointed Diego Maradona as the national team's manager. He might have been the greatest player in the world, but he's got nothing going on upstairs anymore. They just barely squeaked through qualifying.
