  1. The team and Scaloni should be tested without Messi. They have done good without Messi against Mexico, Germany and Ecuador. Let them get tested against this Uruguay side which would be eager for revenge. Messi can start fresh against Brazil. Want to see Dybala taking up some responsibility to lead the team on pitch like sometimes he does for Juventus.
