I agree k_temp, it´s suck a delicate topic as some of us have been waiting for more than 20 years for Argentina to shine as they did in 86, from Batistuta to Caniggia to Crespo to Aymar, we´ve been always waiting for that Messiah like figure that will take argentina to the top again...
I´m not even comparing the players, its that leader we never get, Kempes did it in 78, Diego in 86, sadly I think Messi wont be that guy, at least not until Xavi and Iniesta play in Argentina.
The midfield has always been Argentina´s weak spot, even in the Maradona days that was a problem, I guess Passarela could be a more or less balancing figure there. The only guy that could have done the job to perfection was Fernando Redondo but sadly he got hurt really bad and his career was cut short very early, who knows what will happen; I´m just really sad I wont be able to enjoy this tournament as I though I would.
