The one who went trainer of the FC Barcelona, but especially creator of a method in the world of the football as it was César Luis Menotti, spoke of the current Barcelona group. The Argentinian technician desengranó to the leading culé formed by Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar Júnior and also explained what thinks of the genius rosarino. 

"First it puts it Rijkaard. It saw him wanted by his mates, especially by Ronaldinho. It was the boy of his team. And it goes growing in the era Guardiola in his game. It becomes a big footballer in the last 20 metres, in his skill and his technician, that hits him to the ball like the gods. And to his favour the team had a clear idea. In the era of Tito, Martino and deepens with Luis Enrique, Lio begins to go further back and participate more in the zone of gestation, Messi has turned into a big asistidor, of goals even that it could have done he", began relating on Messi the technician, in an interview made by the journalist Verónica Brunatti for the newspaper "Sport". 

The difference between the Barça and Argentina

One of the big differences that lives at present Messi is his game with the Barcelona team and with the selection of Argentina. "In Barcelona is happy. Here it seemed that no it can it to him allow. It is so much the anxiety that live that they do not leave it be happy, because the surroundings is not well, the team does not attain to play well. Without Messi had not happened the first round of the World-wide. When all seems that it falls in Argentina, appears Messi and builds. But it is not happy because it is a stage of grudges. We live like this", it confirmed.

"Messi had the deserved luck to fall in a club and in his beginnings be surrounded of cracks"

One of the big questions that always surround to the crack rosarino refer to the comparative between Messi and Maradona. "Diego was more rebellious in the learning. He, when something did not go out him, had an enojo achieve same. It was a big mate, solidario, but had another training. It had gone out of a very humble neighbourhood and had done of to little, first in Argentinians Jrs., afterwards in Mouth. No only in the game, but in the life had another picardía. More peleador in the bad. Another character. But Messi does not deliver never. Has different ways to express it but in definite the two do magic things to win a party. And Messi had the deserved luck to fall in a club and in his beginnings be surrounded of cracks, and by worse that it was a trainer, he has to have his values to be respected in the Barça of the way in that it is respected by his mates and wanted. They took care it of chiquito", said.

The "MSN" of the Barça complement and improve

Leo Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar Júnior form, according to Menotti, the most explosive forward. "It is difficult to joint to three forwards like them. I had three beautiful forwards: Kempes, Bertoni and Ortiz. But what is well stand out is that inside the form, of entrance did not know if they could work. Neymar Is younger, more selfish (refer me with the ball) but adapted and no longer paints so much the peel. They have established that the one who does the goal, goes to embrace to the that gives him the pass. It sees that they complement , and this improves them", explained.

After this, broke in more praises to Lionel affirming that "Messi sustains everything. Tenés The magic. I the other day explained a joke: there was once a magician that was spectacular. But once to this magician changed him the drawer, and in his main trick serruchó to the girl. It was not thing that to Messi change him so much the stage that finish doing a goal against of the despair that has for resolving. The stage is fundamental for Messi as for a big actor. It needs a respectful stage of a big idea".

CR7, good player but sobreactuado

On Cristiano Ronaldo, Menotti appreciated that him on sobreactuación. "I think that Christian is an enormous forward. Very complete. To me it does not like me the sobreactuación that does to take out the T-shirt, go to the corner to celebrate the goals with the public. But there is not doubt that it is an enormous forward and likes me a lot. The requirement that has Messi is the one who Messi won like player. It is a footballer that wants to win all, play where play, in the Barça or in the selection. What it is necessary to take care is that it do not exceed in being the best each ten minutes. It is 30 years old and it knows to take care alone; the anxiety to win always. I think that it improves he only", atinó tosay .

Finally, the Argentinian finish giving to Andrés Iniesta like the best of the world: "For me it is a player that has it everything: gambetea, has game, goal, pass of goal, runs and struggles each ball. Never it won a Balloon of Gold, perhaps because it does not have profile for the marketing, has face of at all and speech bajito, has a low profile".
