They don't like us because they lost the Falklands War and they're sore losers.
There wasn't the same level as bad blood before the war, a war which was totally unnecessary. Instead of raging against us for beating them in the war, they should really be blaming the inept regime that took them to war in the first place, but they won't because of course its better to blame foreigners than your own.
I don't understand how you can invade somewhere that wasn't yours to begin with, lose and have many men on both sides killed and still feel anger to the people you attacked...
I was at Wembley in1974 when Argentina was going to the World Cup and England wasn't. I don't remember much of the game, but the vitriol was 11 on a scale of 10.
They don't 'hate' us. There is a lot of British influenced culture over there. They love British rock, they watch the English premier league over there - you should go over there and get talking to people and when they ask you where you from and you say 'England' they will be happy to speak to you. That's the only thing that will happen.
Argentina is the only country where I had the most meals in people's houses that weren't my family.
Argentina is the only country where taxi drivers rounded my fare down.
And it isn't like they're the only country that has moronic football fans (which they do have...) when our fans sing 'if it weren't for the English you'd be krauts' or 'two world wars and one world cup' do German political commentators ask 'do the English hate us?'
Is everybody forgetting something , all experts are giving their opinion and advice on all channels across the world but they are forgetting one vital fact Argentina has been to seven FIFA World Cup semis and have not lost a single one of them never
This feels like a piece to fill a slow news day. I've been to Argentina, fantastic country and very friendly people. Plenty come here and there have been and still are loads of Argentinian players here.
I'm argentinian and i don't hate english people. And there is a lot of poeple thinking as i do. We just say that Malvinas Is our land. War was politicians issues that in the past. I know theres is a lot of people who hate, but a lot it doesn't as well.
Everyone in this video seems terrified to say "The Falklands". That's the reason. Let me tell you, one Argentinian girlfriend in my past, they hate us because of the Falklands.

This is a ridiculous piece, why do it?
