well! the difference is messi is the BPIW and injury prone, so it becomes imperative tht those concerned to the player protect him & not play him in such meaningless games...and maradona too has an obligation but he acts desperate all the time...i remember him playing leo agst France friendly & Bolivia for full 90 mins...wen it wasnt even needed...
My dislike for him is growing by the day...Did ur clueless manager for once think wht if leo wud 've seriously got injured in tht friendly and thn wudnt be able to participate in Arg/Brazil game???...he'd seriously get fucked thn. Maradona is no manager, hez just surviving on his reputation as a footballer he once was...

i watched parts of the training session he got injjured it was not as if they were doing fitness or anything it was a light session.. and for Argentina (especially right now) every result is important...as a manager you cannot go into a match with the mindset that one of your players IS going to get hurt, xavi played for spain, dani alves for brasil, so why wouldnt Messi play against russia. You can bad mouth Maradona all you want, but he is huge for my country and we will always be grateful to his achievements.. as a manager he still has a lot to prove but i am confident things will sort out, and i have a good feeling for the brasil match...

Xavi or Alves are not injury prone, messi is
Xavi or Alves are not huge match winners, messi is
Neither is the BPITW, messi is

So u see the difference, and y leo shud be more protected.

xavi had a knee surgery... and is as important to the team as messi.... if he had got injured would u have been pissed at Del Bosque? and Messi has been healthy for nearly a year now... so why would they assume he had to be proteccted?

you just cant make your team selections around a player being fouled alot of being prone to injury... just not how a manger can operate.. i am thankful that when messi said he felt a little pain he was not pushed to play.. however had it been the brasil game i imagine messi would have played despite

Xavi isn't as injury prone as leo...Leo has suffered a lot of injury probs at such a young age already...and just becoz he was lucky enough to be healthy for a year, u'd assume he doesnt need to be protected?...i dnt see the logic there.
And, Del Bosque is a proper manager, he knows who to play & wen to take thm off in games, esp friendlies...unlike ur manager who acts desperate by playing ur best player for full 90 mins in matches regardless of the result.
Xavi was taken off in the 70th min yesterday...
But, i bet had leo played yesterday, he wud 've bin on the pitch for full 90 mins...like the france game.

so what would you do? messi might get injured so he does not play friendlies, that is just unfair.. Do u think Messi does not want to play the whole game? He loves his country and just like for the olympics he wants to play every game... i am confudent maradona will prove you wrong with his coaching abilities

Diego has Messi ever scored against Brazil ?

no except in U20 he scored a niiiiice hit
