10 - Lionel Messi - v2

Man, had to go to sleep, was really worried... Let's hope that it's true and he'll be back in a few days. Because let's be honest here, a Messi injury would NOT be good for the team at all.

SPORT: Messi isn't ruled out to play against Betis!

I'm so relieved it seems to be okay. He's such a tough guy, whenever he goes down you start to think something *reaaaally* bad happened. If missing the Betis game means he'll recover more safely, maybe we should take that risk? Either way this was a shitty way to end a shitty game...

It was a shitty game and the end was even worse.
Couldn't sleep last night cuz of the injury. I have been a Barca fan all my life but Messi just brings some extra magic to the game every week. For me he is the best ever.
Any update/news guys??

On Saturday, Messi will rejoin the group on training to test if he can play the Spanish league game against Betis on Sunday @barcastuff

That's basically the news now. So he's given one day extra to rest as entire squad has a day off today too.

Tw Pinto: "Very happy because our dear teammate Lionel is fine. Luckily it was just a fright. #HappyFromTheBottomOfMyHeart"

Wtf are Benfica doing

@FCBarcelona: Tests confirm that Leo Messi has a bruised bone on the outside of his left knee. #FCBLive

Anyone know what this means? Can he play or how long till he is able to play?

This means it is not dangerous. A bruised bone is something that may cause pain for who knows how long, even up to 6 months.
Nonetheless, a bruised bone is not something that would get worse if Messi played.

In other words, he's good to play whenever the pain allows him to. I would expect this to be as soon as this year.
