Hernan Crespo, Chelsea
If you are one of the millions around the globe who were disappointed that the Argentina team bowed out before a real shot at the World Cup, take heart.
Crespo will be there playing for Chelsea, and what a team the defending Premier League Champions have!
The Argentine is a Premier League veteran, having been with Chelsea since 2003. But in the 2004-2005 season, he was lent out to AC Milan because of his poor form. Crespo regained form with the Italian club.
In the World Cup, he was chosen in FIFA's all-star team of 23 players of the tournament.
And it's always good to see some Latino rhythm in European football.
