Francescoli Praises Messi And Argentina
According to former Uruguayan football superstar Enzo Francescoli Argentine striker Lionel Messi is the best player in the world at the moment and will help Argentina win the 2007 Copa America. He also provided his thoughts on other interesting issues.

Francescoli, who helped Uruguay win the Copa America on three occasions ('83, '87, '95), regards Messi as the best player in the world at the moment, but also mentioned other South American players that he highly regards.

“Leo Messi is the best and he will continue to be so in the future. Other players that are at a very good level are Kaka, Ronaldinho, Crespo…but Messi offers something more than the rest”.

Francescoli also chose the most likely winner of the Copa America to be “Argentina, for their quality, for their capacity, and for their necessity, because they haven’t won anything important for a long time", and added "They have always livened up things, and have given this Cup the importance it deserves, not like Brazil did, and I’m sad for this. I don’t like the way some players prefer to have holidays”, he stated.
