This season, Messi became the first captain of Barcelona. Yesterday he accepted the interview with Radio Thailand for the first time as the captain. Messi admitted that his penalty technique needs to be improved. He also talked about Ronaldo’s transfer for the first time. Messi bluntly said that Real Madrid has weakened, and he said that Juventus has become a popular Champions League because of Ronaldo’s joining.
What does the captain represent? Messi replied: “For me, being a captain of Barcelona is a kind of glory. It means everything. I will not change anything inside or outside the court. I have been a captain before, but I am not the first captain. Wei, Puyol, Iniesta, I have a sense of identity. We grow together, we understand Barcelona in the same way. I am very similar to Iniesta, and all three are my great examples. .”
Messi set the season goal as the Champions League trophy: “It’s time to fight for the Champions League. We have been out for three consecutive years. Last season was the most injured, we have an excellent lineup, we could have played for the Champions League. In Guardiola In the era, we played against Inter Milan and Chelsea in the semi-finals. We are much better than our opponents, but we can’t advance because of the details.”
Messitan is now a relative balance of football giants: “There are a lot of rich clubs, players are now moving for money. This situation has been going on for some time, Barcelona Real Madrid was the best before, but now we are with Manchester City, Paris There is no difference between Bayern and Italian teams.”
Messi then talked about the Champions League: “It happened at a special moment, we don’t know how to respond. In Rome, we didn’t get into the game at all. We started to fight back twice and then nothing happened. Into the two goals, we lost the top four places.”
Messi concluded with his personality: “I like to win. If I can’t win, I will be angry.”
Messi commented on the new aids Atul and Vidal: “I didn’t know Artur before. Now I think he is very similar to Harvey. He is safe, very reliable, and has a Lamacia style.
He is good at short. Pass, don’t lose the ball, let the team run fast. Modern football needs Vidal, he is excellent in all aspects, whether it is to control the ball or intercept the defense. The game is getting harder to play because the defensive tactics are more The better, the physique becomes very important, and we are often the shortest team on the field.”
Griezmann chose to stay in Atletico Madrid this summer, Messi said: “He posted a video during the World Cup to announce the matter, I did not pay too much attention. Everyone has their own considerations, this is his own decision, we must value It’s the player who joined.”
Messi first talked about Ronaldo’s transfer: “Real Madrid has an excellent lineup and is one of the best in the world. But it is clear that Ronaldo’s departure has made them weaker, and Juventus has become a hot favourite in the Champions League. Surprising me, I didn’t expect him to leave Real Madrid, nor did he expect him to go to Juventus because there are so many teams wanting him. I was surprised, but Juventus is a good team.”
C Ronaldo is gone, Messi will not leave Spain: “I have everything in Barcelona, I am coming at the age of 13, I am the best team in the world, I live in the best city in the world, my children are Catalonia was born, I don’t go anywhere.”
Messi then talked about the goal: “I don’t care about the number of goals, but of course I also want to score more goals. I thought about scoring when I entered the stadium.”
Messi, 31, hasn’t thought about retiring: “Sometimes we talk about it at home or in the locker room, but I don’t know what I will do after I retire, I don’t know where it will be. I also I can play for a few years, then I will decide. And even if I retire, Barcelona can safely promote new people and introduce new aid. I want to complete the contract, and then see if I can continue to play. I will continue to live in Barcelona in the future. I have settled here, but it is a big project to change.”
The 31-year-old Messi is still in progress: “Now I am practicing the last pass. I made great progress in this area last season. My free kick has also improved a lot. The right foot shot is also true. I should improve now. Penalty, to make the penalty more efficient. This is not easy, the kicking in the training and the game is safer, and the goalkeeper’s penalty technique is also very improved.”
Messi is now in the front of Barcelona, the Argentines like this position: “I like the current position, I like to cut inside and go to the middle. To cut in, of course, need the help of the right back, the right back will let the other defender not Know who to guard against.”
Suarez was in a bad state at the beginning of the season. Messi defended the Uruguayan: “He has helped me and the team a lot. He can give me assists and can make the right tactics for the team. He always takes the lead. Go to the pressure guard.”
Alba didn’t enter the national team. Messi defended him: “He knows when I will pass him a pass. It feels like magic. It’s not easy to see people passing. I always tell him that he should be more. When we complete our offense, we really have a special feeling between us.”
