Midfield
Midfield is one of the areas where Argentina have lacked stability over the last few years.
However, things look to be going in the right direction with young midfielders like Exequiel Palacios, Giovanni Lo Celso, Guido Rodriguez, Leandro Paredes and De Paul to name a few being in good form.
While there seems to be a lot of depth in midfield this time, a combination of three midfielders seems to be the best bet going into this tournament for Argentina.
While Lo Celso would slot in as a more attack minded central midfielder, Paredes and Rodriguez would be the two midfielders sitting behind the Real Betis midfielder.
While Paredes is an excellent passer of the ball, he is not a natural defensive midfielder and could be exposed to pace against quick oppositions. In such a situation, it is safer to pair him with a defensively solid midfielder like Rodriguez.
Furthermore, either of Peryra and Palacios might get a look in instead of Paredes in the centre of the park due to their better defensive abilities.
