World Cup 2018: 3 players who could reduce Lionel Messi's workload in Russia

Messi is carrying Argentina all by himself.

#2 Angel di Maria

Di Maria needs to deliver at the big stage now.

Argentina isn't short of talent on any front. In Angel di Maria, they possess a versatile weapon who can be deployed anywhere in the attacking role and expected to deliver.

The PSG winger has been in magnificent form since his days in the Spanish capital. His ability to tear the defences apart with his pace is phenomenal. He can breach even the most organised teams with his perfect looping balls and crosses.

However, he hasn't delivered it all when in national colours. The player needs to step-up and prove what makes him a top player at the biggest stage in the game.

Argentina need creativity if all the routes to Lionel Messi are closed and Di Maria is the best fit for the job.

He is one of those players who can run a riot when in the mood. The Argentine people need him more than ever.
