The truth is that it's a joy, a gift from God, to have the best player in the world in a country like ours."Messi is the biggest thing we have in Argentina, so you have to take care of him." Macri spoke to Messi on Monday, a day after Gerardo Martino's men went down to Chile 4-2 on penalties.He also wanted the miraculous attacker to ignore critics, saying: "I told him not to pay attention to all the comments being made because, in truth, we are very happy." Messi scored five goals at the Copa, but he put his penalty in the shoot-out over the bar as Argentina's 23-year trophy drought continued.He is yet to speak publicly since announcing his decision.</blockquote>
