Benfica's http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 National team says Alejandro Sabella – Report
Argentina boss, Alejandro Sabella, claims that Benfica’s Pablo Aimar can make his return to the National team. The midfielder has been in fine-form for the Reds and the tactician reiterates that his talents can be utilized by the Albiceleste.
Veteran midfielder, Pablo Aimar, has been one of the best playmakers in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 this term. Using his experience and deft skills on the ball, he has been able to terrorize defences and split them open with one pass.
While not famed for his goal-scoring abilities, the former Real Zaragoza man is well known for his team play and crisp passing, something which the Argentina National team have been lacking in the recent past.
Although boasting the best player in the game in their ranks, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296, the team have still been unable to cruise past their opponents like they did so in the past.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 star has failed to produce the goods for his country when it matters most and hardly looks like the same player he is at Camp Nou when he wears the Argentina jersey. While the forward often dons the armband, a lack of a true leader has also
undone the White and Sky Blues.
Aimar played his last game for the team back in 2009 during a qualifier and he showed that he can still be of value, as he played a sumptuous through ball for Gonzalo Higuain to score. That kind of penetrative passing is what Argentina require and the former
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 could also form a good partnership with Messi up-front.
Alejandro Sabella, who is currently managing the team, is of the same view and insisted that the 32-year-old could still be given a re-call whenever he was needed.
Speaking to reporters, the coach said that he knew the attacking midfielder quite well and he possessed certain qualities which could be of great assistance to his country at the moment.
“As I said, I am thinking about the play-offs, not the World Cup. Aimar played for River, where I also started as a player,” he said.
“I know him very well and I like him a lot. He has great talent, intelligence, quality, vision and an ability to pick out a pass. He's a great player and has to be taken into account. He can return to the team,” Alejandro Sabella was quoted as saying.
With Argentina seemingly struggling, a call-up for Pablo Aimar in the near future remains a highly likely possibility.
