Welcome back home, Trezegol

Hola amigos,

Trezeguet’s comeback in our local league has not made much noise. Maybe because it’s not the worth afterall, as River is in second division and Trezegol’s career is ending.

For me, it’s an event. Really. As long as the legs work correctly, this kind of player can play until he’s 40 years old.

Like Camoranesi, Barrios, and lots of other bi-national argies, Trezeguet is considered as a traitor by few fans. But he isn’t. Born in Rouen (France), he got convinced by the French Federation who was more counting on him far more than Argentina at that time. Unlike Grondona (always the same story…).

As you may know, I lived in Milan during 7 years and watched several games at San Siro. I will never forget strikers such as Ronaldo (so monstruous), Batistuta (so brutal and violent!), Weah (a symbol of Africa’s amazing potential), Shevchenko (so efficient), Crespo and Trezeguet.

I haven’t watched Crespo and Trezeguet a lot, maybe 2 or 3 times each maximum. These guy have absolutely terrrific positioning. Scoring is like a science to them. They smell the gol 5 seconds before anyone else and it’s a gift that they’ve used perfectly in their career. They never stop scoring.

Trezeguet joins Cavenaghi at River. Watch out, they are going to score gols like a monkeys eat bananas ; )
