"From a journalistic point of view, a total change in the national side is needed. My opinion is that it shouldn't be so abrupt. That Messi, Agüero and Di María continue is very important. Without them, the change would be very sudden," Demichelis said.
In addition, he believes that Messi contributes a lot and that, with him in the team, the 'Albiceleste' aspire to everything. "Having Messi as the emblem of our national football, the demands for the national team will always be the highest," he said.
Demichelis also spoke about Scaloni. "Nobody has the absolute truth about football. Who's telling you that this coaching staff is doing well and will win the Copa América? If he's doing well, why are you going to take him away? I have a very good relationship with him, but perhaps the path from which he arrived is atypical," he said.
He also revealed his favorites to lead Argentina in the future. "Diego Pablo Simeone, Marcelo Gallardo and Mauricio Pochettino deserve to lead the national team at some point," he said.
