Sabella watched midfielder Lamela and defender Burdisso during Roma's 3-1 loss at Sampdoria on February 10 with the duo helping Roma complete a 1-0 win over Serie A champions Juventus on Saturday.
“Nicolas and Erik are two players who I always observe,” said Sabella. “They are important players who have been selected in the past.
“They are in good form right now, but their footballing state is not the only factor to consider... their behaviour also counts.”
