Why did his World Cup 2010 squad have no space for freshly appointed Champions League winners Zanetti and Cambiasso? Diego Armando Maradona answers the question asked by La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Neither of them could have made it to the World Cup. I like players who pass the ball forward and know how to play the ball. Cambiasso is a good player tactically, but he is way too slow with the ball. He is one of the players I don’t like, even though he has quality. Zanetti seemed more promising, but I gave him a chance against Paraguay, and he didn’t impress me. That is all I have to say”.
“Milito? He came to the World Cup squad in top form, but when we arrived in South Africa, he wasn’t my first choice in attack”.
In other words, a Maradona who doesn’t let down his reputation as a creator of headlines and a person who is never afraid to speak his mind. Unfortunately for him, and all the Argentinian supporters, Argentina would surely have benefitted from the three Inter players, two of which weren’t even included in the squad.
