`Argentina the best so far'

KAMEN: Spain coach Luis Aragones said Argentina is the best team yet in the World Cup and not just because of its 6-0 demolition of Serbia-Montenegro.

``I don't say it just because of that. I say it because of what they did before, the 2-1 against Ivory Coast, which is a strong team,'' Aragones said on Saturday.

``As a team it is the best, and I don't care about the 6-0 because the match turned in its favour very quickly.''

Spain, too, is considered one of the favourites after an impressive 4-0 win over Ukraine in the Group H opener. But Aragones said his team was not perfect — yet.

``There are still things to improve on, although when it comes to playing the ball, it's difficult to do it better than Spain.

``Our fullbacks need to advance more and create more danger, but do it alternately.

"The strikers need to move toward the flanks more. There are things to improve, of course.'' — AP
