Koeman defended Messi in the last press conference and in the last hours more defenders of the Argentine's attitude have appeared. Messi received criticism for a sequence of the match against Dynamo Kiev, where he is seen walking in the last minute of the game, with the Ukrainian team attacking. Koeman believes that he wants to make noise with Messi and yesterday he stepped out to defend him. An ex-partner like Thierry Henry has also done it. The Frenchman sees a nonsense that is charged against Messi's attitude, because of his career, his quality and his involvement.
“When I see that people keep trying to criticize Messi for whatever reason, I laugh. I laugh because people forget that last month he went to play in Ecuador and then he went to play in Bolivia. Nobody remembers that he had to take a 12-hour plane and you can't even walk well in Bolivia! When the players from Europe go to play there, they pass out. And then he traveled and played again, “said the Frenchman in Meter.
For Henry it is stupid that Messi's attitude is questioned. “And yes, maybe in that game he was tired, so what? We are talking about a guy who scored more goals than games he has played. People forget that we are not machines. In the Classical, he went five or six times to throw himself on the ground for a ball near the corner, but that's not news, that's when I just don't understand it. People don't talk about that. Leave him alone, when he is not in the fields, we will cry. We don't talk about that, “he says.
Henry launches into a fierce defense of his ex-partner. “I understand that you need to sell things and you need to make stories, but not of this type. I played with Leo, this is not the type you need to attack. What he has done for Barcelona, is insurmountable. So I do not understand when people question your desire. That's what bothers me.Sometimes my teammates would push the ball and I would walk! It wasn't out of desire, sometimes I was tired, sometimes I just couldn't do it, my brain wasn't following me, it may or may not happen. But, how can the hunger of Leo Messi be questioned? Really!? It's just ridiculous, “Henry says without hesitation.
