Zidane was in much better conditions at 36 than Riquelme is at 33, and France needed Zidane, Argentina did not need Riquelme

Besides, you really can't compare one of the best players of all time to riquelme, hes class but its just unfair imo

argentina did not need riquelme? are you sure? argentina are not so creative in their playmaker nowadays. they need that creativity factor, that is mean, riquelme is the answer.

why not comparing zidane with riquelme? i don't see much different in term of talent. in fact, i don't see zidane can win the world cup with the argentina squad.

No Argentina dont need Riquelme, did you not see how many chances Messi created on his own?

They need a competent defense, and a coach who can correctly line up their midfielders

They need to take the chance and start building the side with younger players and around messi. Look at how well it worked out for Germany. With players like messi, aguero, higuain, di maria, tevez, pastore.... Argentina have the depth in attack to be the most entertaining team on the international stage, and with players like mascherano, banega and cambiasso behind them, the only thing left to do is find the right balance and formation. Once the defence can sort itself out between now and 2014, I don't see any reason why Argentina can't challenge to win the trophy. And players like riquelme would be very useful to have in the qualifying squad even if he is not a guaranteed starter.

Every winning squad has experience, though. Argentina should have a healthy mix between young talent and old players. Zanetti, for example, should still play.

germany, spain, brazil,

too much for an argentina that will suck too badly to become CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD.. please...

and riquelme could still play, but the thread asks do they NEED him the answer is no, could they have him playing? yes, if he maintained himself in good form, lets say he was still plaing in europe, then he prob would be at good form, but at boca juniors, at this stage, i doubt hes anywhere nere good enough to be NESSECARY or VITAL to argentina
