Antoine Dupont's resurgent France host a vastly-improving Argentina on Friday in their final game of the November internationals with Les Bleus head coach Fabien Galthie already thinking of next year's Six Nations. "Without a doubt he is the best player in the world and has been for years," the former Stade Francais centre added. "Juanchi is a very important player for the team, he is part of the group of leaders," Contepomi said. He has overseen six wins from 11 Tests, including an Argentina record of three victories in the Rugby Championship. "I think we have improved, that we are on the right track, but there is still a lot to do," Contepomi said.
