For Menotti, “people can get excited” about the Argentine team in the Qatar World Cup

Menotti indicated that “The greatest obligation is to be honest with the fan, not to generate expectations that transform you into a know-it-all”and referred to the coaching staff group that he leads Lionel Scallonibeside Pablo Aimar, Walter Samuel and Roberto Ayalaand assured that he found “four young people who needed a project”.

“I did not know Scaloni in his career, we got together with Ayala and Aimar to talk about what Argentina means, we discussed, we analyzed what the Argentine National Team is, which is a team that is put together with clear objectives, the main one is the championship of the world”he pointed out.

Asked about what it would be like to put on a good performance in the Qatari World Cup, Menotti Indian: “To show what we are, it would be painful not to qualify in the first instance, but we have to see how we win or lose.”

“You can lose with Germany, but you have to have the presence and your history in a match. If you get inside the goal and if you win on penalties, you don’t represent Argentine football”he claimed.

Menotti headed to the Argentine national team in two World Cups, when he became champion in 1978 and in Spain 1982, when the ‘albiceleste’ team was eliminated in the second phase.
