The FC Barcelona is prepared to restart the fight by the titles, and does it very pending of Leo Messi. The one of Rosario ensured that it felt very well in spite of the months of confinement and to a brief but intense 'pre-season', but after several sessions of trainings in group saw forced to go down the rhythm a pair of days by fault of a slight contracture. This episode has elevated the level of alert in the Camp Nou.

In spite of that the club insists in that the crack is in full form, there is debate again on how sustain his best version. The muscular problems already happened him bill at the beginning of the current campaign and forced him to go through the infirmary in several occasions, by what, in a calendar compressed that concentrates the fight by LaLiga and the Champions in hardly three months it will be necessary to have caution. This measure also extends to the rest of the changing room, but is especially sensitive with the captain by his condition of better footballer of the planet and leader of the team.

The discussion is served because there is not evident solution for the case, and Quique Setién will have to assume responsibilities. As it already did Ernesto Valverde before that he, to the Cantabrian will touch him pactar the rests with the Argentinian, that also attends the recommendations of the medical services and decides in function of his feelings. The ex of the Real Betis has explained that by him would be always like titling, but also has admitted that will evaluate in function of the moment and the circumstances if it can save him some minutes to his legs.

On this question has pronounced Dimitar Berbatov, that has advised to the Barcelona on a star of almost 33 years that has to regulate to the maximum his efforts. The bulgaro recognises that the '10' is an expert in dosificarse to himself same, but warns that it also will be key the support that receive: "Personally, I think that it is better that Messi do not risk for the first party. Even although have some pain, will want to play".

"In a case like this, need that the technical body show you that the panorama is wider and help you to understand the vital and the important that are for the team. If you lesionas and lose you more parties, then the team will have a serious problem", has added. The ex of the Manchester United considers that his presence in front of the RCD Mallorca does not have to be the main aim, but the trainer and his assistants have to centre in a more psychological work. In addition to managing his wear, also will have to procure that his ambition do not play him a bad past.

Messi also is the best acting of LaLiga

One of the advantages to have Messi is that it is at the same time an indispensable headline and an acting demoledor, since it is the maximum scorer going out from the bench between the players in active of the First Spanish Division. Obviously, it is necessary to give him margin so that it can mark differences, but this statistics reveals that Setién will have it a bit easier if it needs to do without Leo so that it take a break.
