Former PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino believes Lionel Messi must lead Argentina to victory at the World Cup to cement his status as an all-time great.
Lionel Messi"Yes, it is important because the World Cup is something else. You need to confirm the trophy which is the maximum expression of football. When you get him, then you can say: "Okay, he's the best in the world." This is the only thing that Messi lacks to become a world champion, and I hope that in Qatar it will happen.
Of course I want Argentina to win the World Cup. I want Messi to confirm his status as the best, and to be in the same row with Maradona and Pele," Pochettino is quoted by The Athletic.
