10 - Lionel Messi - v4

[6 Ballons for Messi]

If Leo keeps on with the tattoo trend he will soon look like an aboriginal elder.

Once you get addicted to the needle, you won't stop.

Or that's what I've heard.

I have tattoos, never got addicted though. Then again...I am not addiction sensitive.

 

[dakt]

Tattoos again? OK get him back on the pitch ASAP.

i can recall Dani Alves' look in CL final

 

[raskolnikov]

Because of his second child. =D

Here are the before and after pictures:

Hahaha

SPORT reckons he won't make the Clasico.

I would love for barça to win the bernabeu clasico without messi. It can be done !

 

[barcafan161]

So messi not expected to be ready for real?

 

[raki]

Expected.

4-4-2

 

[Flavia]

I don't think it'd be wise to rush him, either. Nov 21st is in 20 days, he hasn't even started running yet. Best to to risk him in a clasico, where a lot of kick in the players are expected.

SPORT reckons he won't make the Clasico.

Sport isn't really reliable, though I don't know if that would be such a terrible thing, first game back against those assholes would be very scary, they'll obviously try to break him again.

If we win against Villareal, I say no need to risk it really, even more if they drop points against Sevilla, with Iniesta and Vermaelen back we can gamble a clasico at the Bernaleo.

At the end of the day it's 3 points in the fall so why risk it?

If it's a big game in the spring like CL final then okay but no need to rush out of injury. We aren't Arsenal. That's how you cause further damage and create an issue that doesn't go away for the rest of the season.

Bring him back when he is 100%

As much as I feel sick entertaining the thought of playing against Real Madrid at Abu Dhabi without Messi and losing the game, it is a matter of 3 points. Messi being fully recovered and healthy is much important than 3 points.

I bet Luis Enrique has already started rehearsing with a starting XI without Messi?
