Zero risks with Leo Messi: without the high, delayed his return

Ernesto Valverde had clear that this Wednesday was not a day to risk with Leo Messi. The Argentinian star still does not have the high doctor of the fracture that suffered in the radius of his right arm and, in spite of that it was included in the list of 22 summoned to visit to the Inter of Milan, finally remained went beside Iñaki Crag, Munir The Haddadi and Denis Suárez.

The fact that Messi went in in the preselection of 22 players and finally went descartado has two possible readings: the first is that Valverde and the rest of the technical body had the hope that the Argentinian received the high medical and wanted to apurar; the second, that wanted to play to the distraction summoning him and that his presence went to do pineapple.

It was as it was, it will not risk with the presence of Leo Messi and the Argentinian star will not go back to the terrains of game until it was not recovered to the one hundred by one hundred of his ailment. The most likely is that his return give the next weekend against the Real Betis, in the last party before the stop by selections.

The performance of the FC Barcelona during the last parties also influences in the decision of not risking with Messi. The team is conscious that the Argentinian is the fundamental piece of his team and thus it has multiplied efforts from his drop to minimise the consequences of his absence. The result has been positive and have obtained victories in front of the Seville, the Inter of Milan, the Real Madrid and the Ray Vallecano.

Since the Barça has showed that it also is lethal without the best player of the planet, the logical is not risking more than the necessary. Messi had a grave injury in the arm and has to be totally recovered to play, since a relapse could suppose be more time without him. It is the fundamental pillar all prevention is little with him.
