Argentina should look to Build a Young Team

When the next world cup arrives, the key players in the current Argentina National team would become very old, and possibly would've called time on their careers. This is why, it is crucial for Argentina to plan for the future, and look to create a young team, with the exception of some obviously experienced players who will be crucial to the squad.

A young team would bring in a new mentality and will be hungry for glory, much in contrast with the old team which will be dejected after having lost three finals in a row.

Paulo Dybala, Mauro Icardi, and Christian Pavon could be the youngsters Argentina needs to build a team around, to make a strong and competitive team. Argentina has a fresh supply line of youngsters, so the AFA should keep an eye out for youngsters who haven’t had the opportunity to prove their worth.

For Instance, Luciano Vietto is a young striker who, if given a chance, may turn out to good enough for Argentina. If Argentina wants to win the World Cup, they should be looking out for the future, even if it means sacrificing players like Di Maria and Gonzalo, who are crucial players in the current Argentina set up.
