Javier Zanetti, News & comments

[TOMMO]

One of my favourite players in the world is Javier Zanetti. How is he still rated by Inter and most importantly Argentinian fans.
What position does he play for Argentina? To me looks like he plays on the right wing but im not sure.
Does anyone think he could play in central midfield maybe as a holding player cause I do?

[argentine soccer fan]

Javier Zanetti plays either defense or midfield on the right side. He is known primarily for his ability to move up an down the field, being just as capable attacking as defending. He is one of the top Argentine players today, and well respected by experts and fans from Argentina and all over the world.

He began his playing career in Banfield, a small club from the suburbs of Buenos Aires. In 1995 he was transfered to Inter of Milan and he's been with them ever since.

Javier Zanetti has to be my all time favorite player in the last years.Guys amazing ,never dissapointed in his play on the field.I know i'll miss him when its time for him to call it quits.

[Futballer]

He is a great player!
Always seems to have a good game.

Age is cathing up to him. he is not the same player he was couple years ago.

but he still has some left in his tank.

[nicephoras]

Since age caught up to Cafu, Zanetti has been, imho, the best right back in the world. He's starting to fade, but not too badly.

The guy is simply amazing, and probably one of the world's hardest working players.

[Power_of_foot]

Javier is the best in the world.
he is better than Cafu and Thuram

Zannetti is one of the classiest players i haver ever had the pleasure of watching. I think he deserves to be captain of the national team instead of Roberto Ayala. Nothing against Ayala just that zanetti has done so much more and for the national team than ayala. Javier will never be forgotten once he finishes his career but i seriously believe he still has a lot to offer. Hopefully he can cap of his career by leading argentina to the cup in 2006.

[Power_of_foot]

He does deserves to be a captain.
He is experirence, knows how to read the game exceptionally well.
Also his unpredictable passes are threatning.

[CW1980]

Is he not also heavily involved in charity work? Seems like an all-round good guy!

[X X I]

The guy can still run like a maaaoooooffffuuuuukkkkkky.

Isn't this something? lol


El líder del Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN), el Subcomandante Marcos, se mostró encapuchado como siempre, pero vestido con la camiseta número 4 del Inter de Milán, la de Javier Zanetti.

En una extensa nota publicada hoy por el diario italiano La Gazzetta dello Sport, con el título de Hasta la victoria, Inter (haciendo un juego de palabras con la clásica frase del Che Guevara), el líder guerrillero se confesó hincha de Inter.

Marcos, que encabeza el movimiento que desde hace años lucha por los derechos de los indígenas y de las clases postergadas de México, señaló su agradecimiento a la delegación de Inter que le envió una suma de dinero, pelotas, camisetas e indumentaria para crear un equipo de fútbol.

Marcos agradeció desde el sitio de Internet del EZLN a los futbolistas de Inter quienes, a través de una visita que le hizo hace unos meses una delegación del club en Chiapas, le mandaron la camiseta oficial de Zanetti.

"Hermanos y hermanas del equipo italiano les deseo el mayor de los éxitos para su campaña deportiva", dijo la nota firmada por Marcos en la página de Internet. Se dijo también que, pese a confesarse hincha de Inter, Marcos, un ex estudiante universitario que se volcó a la guerrilla, "no es un apasionado del fútbol, sino que prefiere el básquet.
