In an interview with the Spanish newspaper El País, Del Bosque mentioned the hero of Messi’s summer club change, which ultimately turned out to be nothing, so there was also a little talk about the Argentine attacker.
“The big problem with Mess is that he competes with himself. I understand what is happening to him, we have all had that responsibility around his neck. When you go to the field in the dressing room, you know who are the good players around you, with whom you can win a match or a final. Carrying this responsibility for fifteen years will come the moment of questioning. One day you look in the mirror and say, “This shouldn’t be that easy.” That is the weight that Leo must carry. “

Then Del Bosque commented that this situation is also difficult for the coach to handle, and in a situation like this, it does not matter how far the player is from the coach when Zubizarreta, now in the position of sports director of Olympique de Marseille, took out to shine the Tata Martino. there is no sign of a very rosy relationship.
“It depends on the generosity of the player towards the team, the coach. When Tata Martino was in charge of Barcelona, he once told Messi: “I know that when you call the president, he kicks me out immediately, but I beg you, you don’t have to remind him every day. I know it too “.“
