The Argentine was quick to point out that Messi has found his best form since the start of the year. With little over a month left until the Copa América gets under way, Martino gave an interview to Argentine publication 'Diario Popular' in which he remarked that Messi is "a complete player, who understands just what the team needs at different times and blessed with the skill to provide the boost it needs at just the right moment."
Martino also added that Messi is "a much more mature, a real team player, and what happened in the last World Cup is largely responsible for that. Back then we saw a less explosive player."
