The technician of the selection of Argentina, Jorge Sampaoli, conceded an interview to a group of students of journalism in the school Tea and Deportea, where spoke on different subjects related with the selection of Argentina and his participation in the next World-wide of Russia 2018. Argentina has a ready team to be one of the candidates, but Sampaoli sees for the moment to other stronger selections.
"I think that the selections that are above us are Brazil, France and Spain", said, without speaking of Germany. "Of Germany forget me always because it does not like me as it plays". "Lopetegui Has attained a culture of fearsome game and seduces me a lot the form to play. Brazil has a very strong team with a lot of speed in the transitions and has to Neymar, that surely goes to arrive to the World-wide very well", added.
"One of the reasons by which did not doubt in training to Argentina was to head to Messi"
Sampaoli Insisted besides in that it does not have sides of first level. "If Argentina had to Dani Alves and to Marcelo sure would play with two sides. We are looking for an alternative that do us a no predictable team".
And it recognised that what happened him to Italy, that did not attain to classify for the World-wide of Russia 2018, could have him happened to Argentina. "What happened with Italy are normal sequences. It could have happened to us. We were very near". Chile is another of the big selections that will not be present in the World-wide. "Me extrañó a bit the no classification of Chile. It works like team and surprised his elimination".
Praises for the best of the world
Finally, as it is natural, surrendered in praises to Leo Messi. "We know that Messi is intocable. One of the reasons by which did not doubt in coming to the Argentinian was to direct to the best player of the world. Direct it, conmoverlo every day, that respect you and that seduce him your way to play. Leo is a pibe very humble and a person that costs -and a lot- the penalty know".
