Spain – Barça – Lionel Messi frames Eric Abidal and the management of FC Barcelona


Spain – Barça

Lionel Messi’s words are rare and precious, and often make the effect of a bomb. This is what happened on Tuesday on Instagram, where the Argentinian responded to Eric Abidal’s allegations.

Lionel Messi decided to react to comments made by Eric Abidal during an interview he gave to the daily pro-Barcelona Sport. The French, sporting director of the Catalan club since June 2018 and former Barça player between 2007 and 2013, notably criticized the attitude of the players under the orders of the former coach, Ernesto Valverde, dismissed on January 13 last and replaced since by Quique Setién.

Many players were not satisfied or did not work much, but there was also an internal communication problem. The coach-player relationship has always been good, but there are things I can feel as a former player. I told the club what I thought and that I had to make a decision (on the dismissal of Valverde)“Said Abidal in particular. Statements that were not appreciated by the little Argentinian.

As a good captain, Lionel Messi is therefore out of his reserve. All this through a text posted on his Instagram account, followed by more than 142 million people. “Honestly I don’t like to do this kind of thing, but I believe that everyone should be responsible for their tasks and their decisions. We, the players, on what is happening on the field, are the first to recognize when we are not well. Those responsible for sports management must also assume their responsibilities and the decisions they make. Finally, when we talk about the players, we would have to give names, otherwise, we dirty everyone and we feed rumors that are not true. ”A real good tackle for the direction of Barça, but especially for its French sports director. – M.D.
