00:00And I think naturally, the other part of this too, is that if you're not interested in laying
00:07crazy money with Argentina, maybe anytime goal scorer is the thing.
00:10I haven't followed this that closely, Messi is minus money to score tomorrow night.
00:14Has he been that way throughout the tournament here?
00:18Because I know he's the only minus money goal scorer, Martinez plus 150 is the next closest.
00:22Yeah.
00:23So, Messi is not.
00:24He's dealing with a hamstring injury, which he's kind of dealt with over the last two
00:28years of his career, on and off, and he just hasn't looked himself this tournament.
00:32I would stay away from minus money with Messi.
00:36You can play minus money with Messi when he's in good form.
00:39He's just not in that good of form right now.
00:41Lautaro Martinez is the way to go.
00:43He has been scoring in bunches, and it's funny because he's not a good goal scorer for the
00:49national team.
00:50If you look at his record, he's just, he's amazing for his club, Inter, and he's just
00:55not great for Argentina, but he is the beneficiary right now of a lot of good players around
01:00him.
01:01He is being fed chances in front of goal.
01:04He's missing a lot of them, but he's finding the net on a couple.
01:08So he's the guy right now for Argentina.
01:12He's sort of the chance recipient, if you will.
01:16He's not doing much himself to find the back of the net, but everybody else is feeding
01:21him right now, including Messi.
01:23He's playing a little bit more creative in this tournament rather than a finisher.
01:27So I would stay away from Messi.
01:29You could play Lautaro Martinez, but there's so many players who can score for Argentina.
01:33I wouldn't look much further than that.
