Aimar jealous of Zidane role

After arriving from River Plate, Aimar has had an up-and-down career at Valencia but is beginning to enjoy the fruits of his labour as his side climb up the table.

Aimar said: "Zidane's position would be my choice. But I came to Spain to deal with everything.

"Good things have come up this year, but I always want more.  I am not satisfied just playing."
 
Aimar admitted that he was 'disappointed' with his own performance, saying: "I haven't had consecutive games and I haven´t given all that was expected.  You have to do well always and maybe I wasn't doing it."

Talking about Spanish football, the former River Plate star said: "Football here is very well played.  La Liga is, if not the best, one of the best leagues in the world.  Here is where I have to try to stay.

"I don´t know if I am a star.  What I know is that I am growing and learning as a footballer.  I thank the people for their support."

Regarding Valencia's current situation he stated: "Next month is going to be difficult.  The team can be at the top if it keeps going well.  But you can slip down if you lose a game, and if you win you are again in the battle."
