Argentina Left-winger - Angel Di Maria
One of the best playmakers in the game, Angel Di Maria should be a starter for Argentina. Nobody threads the ball through tightly packed defences quite as well as Di Maria does. He is coming off yet another impressive season with Paris Saint-Germain and ought to be selected ahead of Nicolas Gonzalez and Joaquin Correa.
Trending
Di Maria scored six goals and provided 18 assists in 42 appearances across all competitions for Paris Saint-Germain in the 2020-21 season. It is difficult to shake the 33-year-old off the ball and he is one of the most experienced Argentinian players heading into the tournament.
With as strong a midfield as they have, having Di Maria in the frontline will further strengthen Argentina and enable them to play an exciting brand of football.
Striker - Lautaro Martinez
Argentina have quite a few options at centre-forward but the one that fits the dynamics of the side to perfection is Lautaro Martinez. The Inter Milan striker has also been Scaloni's preferred choice to lead the attack.
The 23-year-old is a great marksman and is coming off a fantastic season with Inter Milan. He scored 19 goals and provided 11 assists in 48 appearances across all competitions for the Nerazzurri this past season.
Martinez can take defenders on and beat them and has plenty of pace to burn. He will complement Di Maria and Messi well as all three players are excellent in a technical sense. The interplay between the three will definitely be something to look forward to for fans.
Right-winger - Lionel Messi
The first name on Argentina's startling lineup, Lionel Messi, will be the main creative force for his team at Copa America 2020. Messi might be 33-years-old but he continues to be one of the best footballers on the planet.
He won the La Liga Golden Boot this past season and was in incredible form in the second half of the season. This could be one of the last major tournaments for Messi in an Argentina shirt and he will be desperate to win the continental tournament.
Messi scored a total of 38 goals and provided 14 assists in 47 appearances for Barcelona this past season. If he can replicate that kind of form at Copa America 2020, Argentina are going to take some stopping.
