Lionel Messi Is Back At His Best For Barcelona

The Argentine forward Lionel Messi was heavily criticized by his country during the World Cup Qualifiers, and by Spanish fans after his disappointing game against Valencia. Nevertheless, the Barcelona number 10 player had declared that he is now back to his best, and he is thankful for the support that was given to him by his coach Pep Guardiola and the rest of his team.

“I did not have the happiest of times with the national team, nor in the Valencia game, but I always knew I’d bounce back,” Lionel Messi stated.

“The most important thing is my team-mates. They showed total confidence in me, which makes me feel more comfortable.

“Pep (Guardiola) too. It’s important how he makes you feel, both on and off the pitch. He takes particular interest in you as a human being, not just as a player.”

Making reference to the Ballon d’Or, Lionel Messi continued:

“Last year we had a great season and now we are picking up these prizes”

“I hope someone from our team wins the award – it’ll make the whole squad happy. I’ve always said that the most important thing for me is the group.”
