Recently, Argentine legend Batistuta was interviewed and asked who between Alvarez and Lautaro should partner with Messi.
Batistuta said: "They are both world-class players, standing here today, representing Argentina in the World Cup, and I think they have both performed exceptionally well.
"Everyone always expects them to score goals, but now Messi is responsible for scoring. So in my opinion, there's no problem with either of them.
"If it were up to me to decide, that would be a real challenge. That's why I'm not a coach.
"This would indeed be a very tricky problem.
"In fact, it's unfair to leave either of them out.
"But that's how it is with the national team; only 11 starters can be chosen, there are no more positions. If we put all of them on the field, we would essentially be fielding an extra player, and we would ultimately be disqualified for a violation."

Maybe it's a good thing that the former great didn't become a coach... If that is the wisest reason he could give for choosing between Alvarez and Lautaro.

why pendo then can't defeat colombia and meet messi by himself ? uh i remember fifa paid pendo and portugal also to let messi in a better road and pendo accept it ...... i wonder why messi didnot win 2014 worldcup, and 2 copa america while he had fifa , i just wonder
I've no idea who's Pendo, nor do I know why he's coming up in this conversation. ๐๐ The fact is that Argentina will struggle heavily after Messi retires. Most of their key players will step down, too. Just believe me. Ronaldo should step down, and I believe Portugal will be a better team and energetic should they get a better coach as well.

The group stages and knockout stages need a big reshuffle.They've been literally giving that fraud opponents of lower caliber s. This is going to be your end. Argentina should be tested from the very beginning of the tournament.

the funny thing is that Messi has created most chances than everyone in this team. It's not that he's responsible for the goals, his teammates are simply poor in front of goal.

have u guys noticed whenever messi teammates has the ball and he's in the box they don't shoot but instead pass to him ...it's fine but every time they don't need to completely keep on passing to him ..for ex Martinez had the chance and took it that's how they should be taken every chance..even messi will be more happy if his teammates score and help team win
