Argentina national soccer team fan

Angel Di María returned to Portugal and is training with Benfica. On August 26, 2008:

"Hopefully I can play more than last season. I want to show what I'm capable of."

About transfer talk: "My mind is with Benfica. What happens outside is not important."

In an interview with Argentinean radio Radio Mitre:
"I'm very good in Benfica and I'm comfortable there. Anyway, the offers that can appear for my transfer it's something I leave in the hands of my agent. For my part I only need to be calm and concentrate on playing soccer. If something convenient for me does appear, I might leave."

About being in Alfio Basile's list for ARgentina's next two WC 2010 qualifyers: "I'm very happy with the call up for the games against Paraguay and Peru, because it was an objective that I always fought for and finally was able to achieve."
Your thoughts on Di Maria staying after so much transfer talk?

Pablo Aimar's Benfica not off to a brilliant start. The first game of the Portuguese league, they drew 1-1. They were losing at home until Nuno Gomes scored the equalizer in the second-half.

After the first week, Benfica is already in 10th PLACE!!! Both FC Porto and Sporting won their first game.

Spanish: El Benfica de Pablo Aimar no pudo ganar su primer partido en casa. Empezo perdiendo por 1-0. El atacante Nuno Gomes empato en el segundo tiempo. Los otros 2 grandes ganaron sus partidos. FC Porto - Belenenses, y Sporting 3-1 Trofense.

El Mundo Deportivo chose Messi for the cover. A sports paper in Catalunya, natural for them to put Messi. Bravo!

When the team wins, a photo of all the team is called for. Di Maria with the winning goal does deserve it this time.

Argentina won the gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. I agree with the cover of La Nacion, Argentinean newspaper, Argentine soccer is worth gold!

They deserved all that space on the front cover. I would have liked to see the photo of all the group with their gold medals.
