They remain few hours for the Barcelona-Espanyol and this Thursday, Esteban Granary has conceded an interview in 'El País' in which it has spoken of all his path and, besides, has remembered a fantastic anecdote with Leo Messi of when they were smaller. It has done viral very quickly. 

The journalist of the half quoted affirms him that "Messi never plays to half gas". And Granary begins: "we Are the two of the 87, know it from the fifteen years. We were to a tournament to Villarreal with the cadets of the Madrid and were in the same hotel that the Barça. I had good relation with which coincided in the selection: I Hammered, Marc Valiente, Cesc…".

To what the journalist, intrigado, insists: "What occurred?". Granary, imperdible: "I crossed Me to I Hammered by the hotel. We in that period won them always, and Hammered saw me and held me: "This year we win you we". I said him: "Fuck, neither of coña". "Yes", it said, "because have one new that it is very good". "Who?", I asked him. "That from here". Then it signalled the swimming pool and saw to a small boy, very small. He only seated to the edge of the swimming pool with the feet in the water, ensimismado. I hammered it is a joker, has been it always, and thought that it was hesitating me. In fact what thought was: "it is hesitating Me to me and it is putting with his own mate". It was the first time that saw to Messi.

And the question that will do all is... How it finished the party? Granary remembers it perfectly: "Messi crushed us. They won 3-0. In the kickoff of centre and in any unemployed balloon planted to receive the first pass in short, and already remained the ball. It was spectacular. Very bajito and strong like a rock. But the madness was how carried the ball. Hit to the foot of a bestial form, was impossible to remove it. It hit, it gave fear what could become. Fifteen years afterwards cross it to me by the field and think: "Fuck, follows here".

Speaking of the derbi

Granary also has spoken of the derbi of this Saturday -still can buy entrances here-: "they do not have the power that had. But they keep on being they, and have infinite resources. In his field more. They are incredible players, what go you to say".

Finally, it has wanted to stand out how it lives in Barcelona... Taking into account that the Espanyol is 'a minority': "When you are less you have to show that you are different, that are more near and more joined the fans and the players, that are another thing. Here it approaches you one and says you: "it Hears, that am perico". Imagine you a fan of the Barça: "it Hears, that am of the Barça". Already, clear. It is a very emotional club. They have gone through very hard moments, and has gone out of all this with wounds but a lot of pride, stronger".
