Messi's problem with Argentina has often been that the parts they have don't fit into an obvious whole, and they struggle to find a working shape that makes best use of him. The Portuguese side on the other hand is built around Ronaldo. However, I do agree that both of them suffer from not having the best of the world's multi-million pound talent making life nice and easy for them the way they do at their clubs in Spain. They might be better than most of the other players in their national squads, but they don't really shine above them and help them exceed their natural level the way guys like Hagi, Stoichkov, Nedved and even Bale have done.
