Football: ‘Hard to imagine Spain without Villa’
Villa was left out of Spain’s Euro 2012 squad as he failed to get back to full fitness after breaking a leg.
MADRID:
David Silva said that he cannot imagine the Spanish squad without top scorer David Villa, who will miss Euro 2012 due to injury, and warns winning the tournament will not be easy. Villa was left out of Spain’s Euro 2012 squad as he failed to get back to full fitness after breaking a leg. “It is a new situation for us,” said Silva. “The truth is I don’t know what life for the national team will be like without Villa. Hopefully, it will be the same but ‘El Guaje’ is an important player, he is pure goal. We are going to miss him both on and off the pitch.”
