Gabriel Batistuta Concerned About Argentina


Recommended Posts

Gabriel Batistuta has warned that Argentina can’t rely on Lionel Messi at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ like they did so abundantly in its qualifiers.

La Albiceleste managed merely seven points from a possible 24 without ‘The Atomic Flea’ in their preliminary campaign. With him they seized 21 points from a possible 30, culminating in a come-from-behind 3-1 victory in Ecuador that ensured Argentina didn’t miss out on their first World Cup since Mexico 1970.

“Messi is a player who can play in any team,” said Batistuta. “I’d always want him in my team, but depending on a player doesn’t seem fair to me, for with the level of the national teams we are going to face at the World Cup, depending on a player is very dangerous.”

Unless there’s a lot missing from that interview, what Batistuta says is evident to people that don’t even know about football. Relying on one person in a team environment, be it in sport or anything in life is always going to be a suffering battle.
