Never heard of this guy before the world cup. It's amazing to think how Scaloni kept eye on all the Argentine players in different clubs to build Copa and world cup winning team.

[@f.torres6529]

Mac allister has been in several of Argentina's youth national teams. Scaloni did a terrific job, but Mac Allister was not a surprise pick for Argentina. Mac Allister, lisandro Martínez, cristian romero, tagliafico, julian Alvarez were all part of Argentina National teams at youth level. A guy who you could say "came up from nowhere" was Enzo. Most of the team made their debut for Argentina at u20s (in different years obviously).
