MESSI hits 100, BANEGA, DEMICHELIS and SAVIOLA

Fairly good weekend for Albiceleste players. On Friday, it was Martin DEMICHELIS who scored from close range for Bayern Munich in their 2-0 victory over Hoffenheim(I can't seem to find a video of the goal).

On Saturday, it was FIFA World Player of Year, Lionel MESSI who scored twice for Barcelona in their 4-0 thrashing over Sevilla. His first goal was his 100th goal for Barcelona, making him the youngest Barcelona player ever, at 22 to reach 100 goals for the club. His second of the night was his 101st goal.

On Sunday, Ever BANEGA scored his first goal for Valencia as they defeated Villarreal 4-1. He received the ball from outside the box and just blasted it into the top corner.

In Portugal, SAVIOLA continued his great form as he scored the first goal of the night for Benfica in their 5-0 victory over Maritimo Funchal. His goal came from close range off a header.

Bolatti to move to Fiorentina, a good move for him.

saviola is the one for the nt with hig up front.
he is a team player, scores goal, has no ego and has a proven record with the nt.
benega deserves a start, he could be the missing piece for the nt in the midfield battle as he can tackle,"mix it up", tracks back,box to box runner but also can pass very well with good vision.
maybe benega and masch or all out attack benega and aimar.
thoughts??
