Lucas Alario is being linked with a move to Eintracht Frankfurt as he is rumored to leave Bayer Leverkusen.

Alario could be on his way out of Leverkusen as he looks to try and make Argentina’s World Cup team. The 29 year old only took part in 29 matches in the league this season with many of them being as a substitute.

The Argentine has been at the club since 2017 where he has lost his starting place. According to Kicker in Germany, the Europa League winners are interested in signing the Argentine for a fee of €6.5 million.

  3. I think Messi doing well bcz of great support from DePaul and fast linking work from dmaria.Which helps Messi to move forward easily and could helps to decrease his pressure..If There is one area could be fast and good crossing also comes Messi willbe terrific. No one can defend us. Hopes our wing backs can do more it will.

  4. I’m very sure and confident this Argentine side with full starting eleven will beat German side easily and even France with little bit of work. Need to bring Dybala on 60th min for Di Maria or start Dybala as it will be a pretty spectecular partnership with Messi and bring Di Maria on 65th min for the tired legs of opposite team as pace and skill of Dimaria wil make a chaos in opposite’s defence. Substitute Le Celso at 65th min and bring Papu. Change Lautaro with Alvarez at 70th min.
    My line up for European giants or against Brazil 4,2,3,1
    —————- EMI —-

    Molina Cuti Lisandro/ Ota Acuna / Tagliafico

    De Paul Paredes / Guido Le Celso

    Messi. Dybala /Di Maria

    Lautaro

    Believe it or not we have so much depth in our starting line up and even on the bench too. Alvarez can be subbed for Lautaro. Papu for GLC and Palcios for RDP. Montiel/Fourth for Molina and even Dybala for Messi.Our only problem is we don’t have proper GK back up. All other departments we do have proper back ups. Still our current B side will be able to bring down Germany or France on any given day or atleats draw with them.Thats my opinion based on the NT performance for the recent matches. I have never seen such team work, hunger for victory, stamina and hard work from Argentine side for the last two decades. I also believe we have mix team full of young and experienced players with plenty of skills. guys mark my words this team has the best attack in the world. No team wiill able to neutralise this in-form forward line even with the best defenders that easily

  5. palacios played better than depaul.. nice joke for me too.. this argentina is in another level last game only bcs of this two player, messi, depaul in the middle..
    messi was clinical as his early days in barca

    • Alario is a different type of striker that we have already. Just remember his performance against Germany. He doesn’t usually miss easy chances. If he gets regular minutes in the new club, he has big chance to be included in the squad for the WC. He can be a super sub.

    • Alario if selected would be a backup striker and he is already used to coming off the bench at Leverkusen. He is quite clinical and experienced too, ideal backup to Lautaro!

    • Sulav and Insider, agree with your points but i don’t think it should be at the expense of Alvarez or Dybala. Scaloni seems to prefer SS type strikers anyway and since Alario has low NT and hardly plays in league, i’m not convinced he should be given priority.

      • Alvarez beside that one goal hasn’t done much. His true test will begin when he plays for City. Even yesterday against Estonia, with the form he is in, he missed couple of chances which he should have scored. But I have a feeling that unless he performs terribly bad at City he is 95% in the squad. Regarding Dybala, he also hasn’t done much so far. He is not someone who can keep up the pressing tempo and cant play as a no-9. Only thing Dybala brings into the team is the X-factor element, that is he can score or create out of no where but not consistently like Messi or Dimaria. Right now our one of the few weaknesses is backup striker. We need a proper striker as a backup to Lautaro and J.Correa isn’t that. Moreover, Alario has been coming off the bench regularly for Leverkusen and has score few good goals and if he can score consistently next season then he will make a very strong case for himself.

        • Dybala presses all the time. He might not press like RDP or GLC but he does the job. Look at his goal against Italy. He pressed with 2 others, stole the ball, initiated the counter, and ended up scoring a beautiful goal. After Messi and ADM, he might be the most clinical attacker we have in our arsenal. This is exactly what we need in the world cup (the x factor you speak of). Also, with Messi Toro and ADM starting, Dybala can certainly maintain a strong press for remainder. Arguably, Italy, Uruguay, and Chile were some of our best attacking games and Dybala was a 9 in all 3 i believe. Even Scaloni said Dybala is a 9 multiple times.

  7. Good for alario…
    Last match first half we saw lack of creativity from mid….and in 2nd half when palacios dybla come its changed automatically.Placios has great game like 2019 placisos is back.He is not only back up for De pual but also played better than him vs Estonia. Suddenly de paul form is down since Italy match that is worried but hopefully he will back in next game. Macalester good player but he always play safe pass…

    • Depaul form is down because he is not getting regular minutes in Atletico and depaul was never a very creative type of technical midfielder he is good in tackles good in marking good in pressing and good in positioning he is not an Iniesta or xavi kind of midfielder he needs regular minutes which he will not get in Atletico

      • Disagree about De Paul, I think you are way underestimating and mischaracterizing him. He is technical, he is a good passer (CA final to Di Maria), he has a long shot in him as well, an all around central midfielder who before Scaloni asked him to play in midfield was actually a winger playing on the left where he often dribbled quite successfully onto his right foot. You’re completely wrong therefore saying that he was never a creative type of technical midfielder. He is now and much more than that because his work rate is outstanding. He might not be Xavi or Iniesta but so what, he is very valuable to us. A box-to-box gem.

        • EnganChe, i couldn’t have said it any better about De Paul. De paul is very technical and has all the attributes you have stated. Moreover, apart from his skills he is a monster with tremendous stamina and workrate. I don’t care about the Xavi and Iniesta comparisons to De Paul, both of them were nowhere close to his pace and stamina. For me De Paul is one of the most important players of our beloved team along with Messi, Di Maria, Lautaro, Romero and Emi and he is one of the best midfielders in the world currently.

        • He also was second for dribbles completed per match in Serie A last season, joint first for big chances created, and third for key passes. Saying he was never creative or technical is ridiculous. The only difference between him now and him in the NT is his role compared to Udinese. He was the focal point of the team. But he is absolutely capable of being very technical if the role suits it. This is also the guy that nearly had two assists in the final

        • Totally agreed. You can tell this guy doesn’t watch RDP even in the NT.
          RDP is excellent at dribbling, long shots, crossing, short passes, long passes.
          That’s what makes RDP + GLC combo so deadly. On both sides, we have 2 players that are very technical, creative, B2B, both defend valiantly..etc

      • You forgot all the DePaul contributions as a midfielder. The long ball to di Maria in the final. The long range shot from him which rebounded and scored eventually by lautaro against chile. The inch perfect cross against Uruguay finished by lautaro. Through ball to messi in the final which Messi didn’t capitalise. Against Estonia he started the run into the box which led to Messi’s 2nd goal. And all the defensive contributions are vital for the team. How can you compare this machine to other midfielders of various genre.

      • Wake up seriously Anuparno!Who on earth was comparing RDP to Xavi or Iniesta ? The answer is only in your own head to bring up with such a comparison and all the rest of crap u talked about wake, wake up Anuparno, for GOD’s sake! RDP as he is current’s ARG’s the most important player for me and that make’s Messi and Di Maria and the rest to shine even more as very technically gifted player in fact one of the technical gifted player among Messi and Di Maria and there are others too, so please do not talk about this way against RDP anymore, period!

      • De paul is great player, one of the best around the world,but what i said is last 2 two match de paul form is down.i mean he was not up to the mark according his standards..yes palacios played better last game please rewatch the match.
