Like the Bird Phoenix, Leo Messi is being able with the step of the years to recycle his game to turn into a more complete player, more determinant and that every time is more leader inside and out of the field. This past Thursday against the Real Sociedad, especially in the second half, the Argentinian exerted of absolute captain in absence of Andrés Iniesta, but no only regarding decisions solidarias like yielding a new penalti to Neymar Jr, but especially in the tocante to the impact in the game.
The "10", possibly one of the players with more intelligence futbolística of the history, knows perfectly when go down to receive the balloon in positions of midfield player for of this way give oxygen to the exit of balloon and allow that the team advance lines, being able to combine with his mates Luis Suárez and Neymar Jr in depth or linking combinations and walls in short to progress little by little.
The reading of the parties of Leo Messi is sublime in the big majority of occasions, and his technical capacities allow him, when they do not arrive him balloons near of the rival area, desbordar from the same watershed and open spaces for the rest of players culés. Against the Real Sociedad carried of culo to Illarramendi and the rest of midfield players, that only could brake him by means of agarrones and conclusive faults.
The transformation of Messi in the game of the Barça
To measure that happen the years, the next Balloons of Gold that receive "The Flea" can arrive no longer playing like right extreme with total freedom in the flank of attack, but rather in the position of interior that occupies at present Andrés Iniesta and with absolute freedom, this yes, to move by the zone of means and from here turn into the epicentre of the Barcelona game.
While other footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo remain entirely cancelled when it finish them the gunpowder and the physicist begins to oxidarse, the big technical of Leo Messi will allow that, when it no longer have the spark and current acceleration -if it is that some day loses them-, can mark the difference equally from the centre of the field with passes in depth, distribution of the game and arrivals to the attack from second line.
Already it said once Luis Enrique that, if they put it of goalkeeper or of defence, Leo Messi would keep on being the best in said position. Well, it would not be a madness that in the future the place of Leo Messi on the field remained delayed so that, thanks to his technical virtues and vision of game, can follow nourishing of balloons to the stars of the flank of attack. And if it follows to this level the Balloons of Gold will continue arriving. Sure.
