Messi doesn’t support any specific Barcelona Presidential candidate but someone who will bring back the glorious days

0

Messi, in his recent interview with La Sexta, has spoken a lot about various things and we also expected him to speak on the upcoming Barcelona presidential election due next month.

So did he, but his point of view was neutral and simple as he wants someone who can bring back the glorious days at Barcelona. This is because of the horrific leadership under Bartomeu, and the ridiculous decisions he made have left the club in the worst position in the club’s history.

Messi’s point of view is correct and his words do speak that the upcoming president and his views will entirely depend on Barcelona’s future as well Messi’s future at the Camp Nou.

Lionel Messi and Barcelona had the worst night this year when both faced Bayern Munich in the knockout stages, experiencing a humiliating 8-2 defeat.

The humiliating loss at Lisbon broke not only the team but the fans across the world. It posed many questions about Barcelona, its administration, players, coach and obviously Lionel Messi.

Today, at the interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole he spoke on that horrific night:

Evole: How was the 8-2 defeat to Bayern?

Messi: It was complicated, we didn’t expect to lose in this manner and it hurt

Also he was asked about playing in his preferred winger position:

Evole: Would you be more left wing or right wing if you were to position yourself?

Messi: No, nothing… I just hope that those in power act with responsibility. 

Being one of the best footballers in the football history, he is dubbed to be the best in the world, so he was asked regarding this as well:

Evole: Is there a pressure when they call you the best in the world and have to show this in every game ?

Messi: I just concentrate on each game and not think about the best in the world tag

Stay tuned we’ll be bringing in more exclusive conversations from the interview.

Lionel Messi wants to play in the United States one day but won’t leave Barcelona now

0

Lionel Messi was on the verge of leaving Barcelona in the summer but then-president Josep Maria Bartomeu refused to let him go and he eventually remained at Barcelona.

Bartomeu has now resigned and a new president will be elected on 24th January. The new president may have a huge role to play in Lionel Messi’s future at Barcelona.

Messi has now given an exclusive interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole. Here’s what he had to say about his future:

Evole: You will be a free agent in a matter of days. Will you start to talk to clubs next week?

Messi: No, far from it, that would go against what I’m saying …. my plan is to all I can for the club at the moment.

Evole offered Messi travel guides to Manchester and Paris but Messi rejected the gift and said: you hang on to them!

Messi: I would like to play in the United States and experience life and the league there…. but ultimately come back to Barcelona in some capacity. I’m not thinking too far ahead in the short term and just want to see how the season finishes.

Evole: Things will end in a fairy tale ending if you decide to stay with Barcelona?

Messi: That’s true, all my life in this city …good and bad times and we’ll just have to wait and see how things work out

So maybe Messi is hinting at a stay at Barcelona in the upcoming seasons as long as he plays in Europe and then goes to the MSL in the United States in the last stage of his career.

Messi feels it’s horrible to play at empty stadiums in his interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole

0

Life after COVID-19 pandemic has really affected everything in the world and obviously has affected each and every kind of sports including football. Players now play in empty stadiums and although it looks absurd but there’s no option.

Players like Lionel Messi also does miss the crowd and the passion they bring to the game, he has opened up recently regarding this at the interview with Jordi Evole:

Evole: Who do you find playing at empty stadiums?

Messi: It’s horrible…it’s cold …strange and different …. I think that may have something to do with strange results that we’re seeing with home advantage being less important. 

Obviously, its a major miss for both fans and players like Messi as well, we hope in the coming year 2021, things become better.

Evole: I find it strange that none of them [Barcelona presidential candidates] have called you. Would you be prepared to stay if Xavi is brought in as coach or Neymar as a player?

Messi: Let’s wait and see what happens and I’ll make my mind up in the summer. The club are going through a tough period financially so it will be complicated to bring Neymar in.

Evole: Do you have a Whatsapp group with Suarez and Neymar?

Messi:  Yes, we speak a great deal and I speak to Luis every day. Last time I spoke to Neymar was after the UCL Round of 16 draw. 

Evole: Who do you get on with best in the dressing room? How do you get on with Griezmann?

Messi: With those players who have been for some time at the club and I get along fine with Antoine.

Leo Messi opens up on having a privileged life with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole

0

Messi’s interview today with La Sexta says a lot about his personal life and the limitations he has being a superstar player. Indeed he lives a privileged life but misses to be a normal human not followed by the media.

He has openly talked about this today with Jordi Evole:

Evole: Many people you feel you live a privileged life …. what would you say to those individuals

Messi: It’s true…. we do live a privileged life but I’d like at times just to be able to pop out to the market or head to the cinema but that’s impossible. Every time I leave the house with the kids, we’re aware of hundreds of eyes on us.

Evole: analysing Messi’s life …can you just pop down to the local supermarket?

Messi: Sometimes, but it can be difficult …. I still go to restaurants with the family in Gava and Castelfidels…. I go to the Casanova Beach for example and am good friends with the owner.

This is almost the same problem with most famous people out there and if its a player like Messi then its difficult to lead a normal life.

Lionel Messi talks about Pep Guardiola and Ronald Koeman in his interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole

Barcelona captain Lionel Messi and current Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola shares a special bond since their days together at the Camp Nou.

Barcelona had their golden days during Guardiola’s tenure. Messi was at his scintillating best under him. They won the continental treble together. Later, Messi once again won the continental treble under Luis Enrique.

Currently, Barcelona are going through a tumultuous time both on and off the pitch. They have been poor on the field and Barcelona is also facing financial problems. The presidential elections are also going to be held on 24th January. So manager Ronald Koeman is having a tough time to manage the team and the results.

Messi has now given an exclusive interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole. Here’s what he had to say about Guardiola, Enrique and Koeman:

Evole: Why do you always claim that Pep was the best coach you worked under?

Messi: His way of preparing games was exceptional and his way and the way of working that Luis Enrique worked too was excellent …. I was fortunate to work with both men.  

Evole: Do you feel there is direction with Barcelona under Koeman?

Messi: Yes, it’s difficult for him as we’re in transition …. there are new players and young talent coming through so it’s difficult too.

Stay tuned we’ll be bringing in more exclusive conversations from the interview.

Lionel Messi opens up about the summer transfer request on his interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole

Lionel Messi was on the verge of leaving Barcelona in the summer but then-president Josep Maria Bartomeu refused to let him go and he eventually remained at Barcelona.

Bartomeu has now resigned and a new president will be elected on 24th January. The new president may have a huge role to play in Lionel Messi’s future at Barcelona.

Messi has now given an exclusive interview with La Sexta’s Jordi Evole. Here’s what he had to say about his wish to leave Barcelona in the summer:

Evole: Would you send the burofax again if you had to?

Messi: Yes, it was a manner of making a point and expressing my feelings. It was me telling the club that I wanted to leave.

Evole: There were those who doubted your love for the club at the time…

Messi:  Yes, that bothered me … I felt I’d completed a cycle and it was time to leave the club that had given me so much. I wanted to win titles and battle for the Champions League and felt it was time for change. The president then started to filter this and that to paint a negative picture of me. 

Messi: It was far from easy for me to say I wanted to leave the club and the city….the family wanted to stay here, this is their home but I genuinely felt it was time to go. Luis Suarez’s departure had nothing to do with the decision but I felt it was crazy the way his exit was handled and that Barcelona let him go to a direct rival.

Evole: How did you feel betrayed by Bartomeu?

Messi: I’d rather not comment on this now…it will come out in the future but there were plenty of things…

Evole: Were you advised by your legal team to stay?

Messi: No, although talking to them, they even conveyed the idea that we’d win a legal battle, but that was the last thing I wanted. 

Stay tuned we’ll be bringing in more exclusive conversations from the interview.

Dominik Szoboszlai recently secured a move to RB Leipzig from their sister club, RB Salzburg in Austria after enjoying a breakout season in the Austrian Bundesliga. 

The player’s agent, Matyas Esterhazy joined Fabrizio Romano and Francesco Porzio in conversation regarding the move on the pair’s Here We Go podcast on Patreon. When asked about the first time he saw Szoboszlai play, here is what Esterhazy had to say:

“I used to play football earlier, so I had a lot of teammates training and playing football, doing scouting when they were younger. Seeing Dominik was a very different feeling. Whether the potential will rise or not is something you never know and it is something that was visible right then and there.”

The Hungarian is touted as one of the players for the future, and will almost certainly end up making an impact at Leipzig. The journalists also predicted a lot more discussions regarding Szoboszlai’s future on the podcast, meaning that there could be big things in store for the youngster. 

For now, his job at hand is learning and developing under one of the most prolific young coaches in the world by the name of Julian Nagelsmann, and it is no doubt that he will be watched closely not only by fans but also by the bigger clubs.
