We will try to find a player, who I think we have in the team, who can provide that width,” said the coach of the albiceleste in conversation with Clank!.
In this sense, he highlighted the main footballing advantages that the Benfica player brought to the team: “After the one-on-one, understanding the play, the Only he could pull off incredible plays out of his hatso the team will have to play differentlynow that he is not here,” he said.
On the last date of South American Qualifierswhere the national team faced Chile (with a 3-0 victory) and Colombia (with a 2-1 defeat), neither Messi nor Di María were present.
The Argentine number 10 could not be part of the list of players called up due to an injury he had suffered in the Copa América, while the former Rosario Central player decided to step aside after the last consecration in the United States, after more than 15 years wearing the Albiceleste shirt. “El Fideo” was honored and applauded in the stadium Monumental, prior to the match against the Chileans, as a symbol of gratitude for everything experienced and achieved with the senior team.
Scaloni showered Dybala with praise and said they are “eternally grateful for how he has behaved”
In another part of the interview, the Argentine coach referred to Paulo Dybalaone of the team’s key players who was left out of the Copa América squad for footballing reasons. Despite having made this decision, Scaloni stressed that the coaching staff values him “as a person” and assured that they will be “eternally grateful for how he has behaved.”
In the last double date of the qualifiers, Dybala was called up at the last minute and played very few minutes in the two games. However, he managed to score a goal in the 3-0 win over Chile at the Monumental.
“Paulo is a true reflection of what it means to understand the situation and want your team and your people to do well. He has had the opportunity to play a lot of times and He hasn’t played because I’ve made other decisions“, said the coach from Pujato.
He added: “It’s hard to find players like him. He is one of the best and understands the current situation.“.
Scaloni also said in relation to the current situation of the Roma player: “We are eternally grateful to him for the way he has behaved. Every time he has been there and played, he has been key. We value him as a person.”

Scaloni valued this decision and highlighted: “These decisions of love are not common these days, to stay in a place where one is very well liked, even though elsewhere they offer you more money“.
“It magnifies what he is as a kid. It is important for us that he continues to show himself at high levels.in a team that is one of the best,” he concluded.
