http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arturo-Vidal-c6760 (Central midfield)
Chile’s defensive enforcer was a sight to behold for Bayer Leverkusen in the 2010-2011 Bundesliga. Now he is taking the spotlight at Copa America for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexis-Sánchez-c4979. Vidal’s performances
have typified his talents thus far. Arturo Vidal protects the Chilean back line and makes sure that his team’s defence is impenetrable. Moreover the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder is a keen playmaker as well. He drops deep to take the ball off of his http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Defence-c38904
and then plays it forward to the likes of Sanchez who work their magic in the attacking third of the field.
Lionel Messi (Attacking midfield)
Barcelona’s forward has been deployed in a trequartista role for Argentina in the Copa America 2011. Sergio Batista has been keen to benefit from Messi’s range of passing and his direct approach from the midfield region. Whilst
Messi has been subdued by his own standards in the group stages of the tournament, he rose up to the occasion when Argentina played their must win tie against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-Rica-c2877 in the group stages. He assisted two goals and showcased why he is such a big asset to
his national team in the 2011 Copa America. Messi has not been as impressive as he is for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 but he has been by far Argentina’s leader on the field.
Sergio Aguero (Left forward)
The Atletico Madrid striker is one of the hottest properties in European football at the moment as he has announced his willingness to seek a new challenge in his club career. At the international stage, Aguero has been overshadowed
by Messi but Maradona’s son in law has captured the spotlight in 2011 Copa http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Batista-c7379’s plans after he was left out of the starting line up in the first two matches of the group stages. Aguero has already netted
three goals in the competition.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276 (Centre forward)
Porto’s target man has been spearheading the Colombian attack. His movement has provided the Colombian midfield with options and his performances has resulted in Colombia’s first place finish in the group stages. Falcao must now
lead his team on towards greater things in the 2011 Copa America. The prolific Colombian target-man has already netted two goals in three matches thus far and he is central to their hopes of doing well in Argentina as well. It remains to be seen how Falcao
will do in the quarterfinals as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Peru-c2981 on 16th of July, 2011.
Neymar (Right forward)
Brazil’s next big talent has a lot of pressure on him at the moment. He is playing to get a move to European football but more importantly he is seen as an heir to Ronaldo’s throne when it comes to Brazilian football and their
legendary strikers. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Neymar-c27639 has showed off and on that he is an incredibly talented footballer. The young Brazilian striker is already one of the top goals scorers of the competition with two goals in three appearances for the defending champions.
