La Liga: Team of the season – Best of the rest (Part 4)
In this last part of the La Liga, best of the rest team of the season, we will take a look at our strike force which comprises of players other than those in Real Madrid and Barcelona...
Giuseppe Rossi (Striker)
The ex-Manchester United star took the Spanish league by storm this season but it wasn’t the first time he exhibited his talents on such a vast scale. When the Red Devils’ sold their young Italian-American striker to Villarreal, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson was quick
to include a buy-out clause of just 6 million pounds. Unluckily for Ferguson that clause was only active for two years as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giuseppe-Rossi-c15027 took time to settle into Spanish football.
However the 2010-2011 season can be termed as Rossi’s real breakthrough season. The youthful goal scorer has added that extra dimension to his game which has enabled him to rise above his peers. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Borja-Valero-c7889 termed Rossi as a player who makes it easy for
his team mates to find him which in fact describes Giuseppe’s off the ball movement. Furthermore, some of Rossi’s goals have come in crucial matches for the Yellow Submariners, a trend which is only found in accomplished goal scorers of the highest order.
Rossi’s exploits have not only been catching attention domestically but his adventures in the Europa League have attracted attention from Serie A as well. Scoring a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Total-c40747 of 32 goals in the 2010-2011 season for Villarreal, 18 of which came in the Spanish
Primera Division and 11 came in the Europa League. The former Parma player also provided six assists which goes to show his vision and awareness on the ball as well. Barcelona are already in talks with Villarreal to sign their top scorer but whether or not
these talks materialize into something substantial still remains to be seen.
Sergio Aguero (Striker)
Atletico Madrid’s top scorer has had a season which is similar to his strike partner in this best of the rest team. Whilst Rossi seems destined to leave Villarreal for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Real-c30728
Madrid from their city rivals Atletico Madrid. Nonetheless, with all this transfer talk aside it is safe to resume Aguero as one of the standout players of the 2010-2011 Spanish Primera Division season.
The Argentinean forward was impervious for Atletico throughout their campaign but unluckily, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058 Forlan’s faltering form meant that the second of the Madrid giants were unable to challenge consistently throughout the season for a top four place in the
La Liga standings.
Regardless, a look at Aguero’s goal scoring tally for the 2010-2011 season reveals that he was consistent throughout. Maradona’s son-in-law netted 20 goals in 32 matches for Atletico Madrid in the 2010-2011 La Liga season. To add to that, he took also assisted
two goals. Atletico will surely miss http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero as the man himself has already confirmed that he is looking to find a future which is away from the red half of Madrid.
