10 - Lionel Messi - v2

[Xtroverto]

Official: Further tests today have confirmed that Messi has a thigh muscle injury and that he will be out for two to three weeks #fcblive

Could be good though in he long run, now he doesn't have to travel to Argentina and can get a good 3 weeks rest instead. He will probably be back to El Classico on the 26 or 27th, maybe he can play the last 30 against Milan on San Siro to get some match rythm back after the break.

He'll most likely be ready even before classico and woin't travel with Argentina, so he'll get some rest...al good things, problem is that thoose injruies are getting serious

 

[coco1247]

How long was he out the last time he had an injury? I'm just noticing a trend as you guys that it's getting more frequent.

 

[MMKa]

A week, one game. Vs Malaga. Before that played two games and before that, two games off (1.5 weeks, Malaysia XI, Italy).

 

[suckabov]

So there's the prospect of possibly having Puyol, Mascherano and Messi back for the Osasuna game?

Hopefully this will be the last time it happens. Sure he needs some rest, but not those frequent injuries...

Now while he's unavailable other players (Neymar, Cesc...) have to step up to fill the void as much as they can

And then was said Ronaldo and Bale would be a lethal couple.

They are already setting records tbh:

Real Madrid have had the most shots off target in La Liga this season, with 61.[OPTA]

As expected really when you have CRon in the team. Once Bale gets more minutes this number will rise to infinity.

On the frontpage of MARCA there is an article about Costa joining the Spanish national team. In that article they praise Costa for being the only one who is able to keep up with the goalscoring rate of Messi, "the best player in the world.":

"Es el único capaz de aguantar el ritmo goleador al mejor jugador del mundo."

Tristiano in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...

Old and perhaps not really funny, but appropriate again:
"Madrid fans after Messi injury"

 

[Gilberto]

I actually think it's quite funny.

as flavia mentioned I think it has sth to do with his diet. its really very worrying, can't be happy even if its just a couple of games that he's gonna miss.
