Don’t catch someone who goes to the toilet 20 times before the game and make him captain; Maradona said about Messi that day

In 2018, football legend Diego Maradona’s words about Messi are making waves. Maradona said Barcelona star Messi is not a good leader.

Maradona coached Messi in the 2010 World Cup. ESPN reported what Maradona said about Messi in an interview with Fox Sports.

“Don’t challenge Messi anymore. Messi only when he plays for Barcelona. Messi is just a god when he wears that shirt. He is someone else when he plays for Argentina.

He is a great actor but not a great leader. Maradona said, “It is useless to make a leader who goes to the toilet 20 times before the game starts,” said Maradona, according to ESPN.

In 2018, Messi took a break from the national team after Argentina lost in the World Cup held in Russia.

According to the report, Maradona made a controversial comment about Messi immediately afterwards. Maradona also said that Messi’s decision to take a break was a wise move.

Under Maradona, Messi missed three Copa America tournaments and the 2014 World Cup.

But in 2018, with Lionel Scaloni taking over as coach, Messi has been performing well for the national team.

Under Scaloni’s leadership, Argentina won the Summit, Finalsima and World Cup and Messi won the Ballon d’Or under Scaloni.

Under Scaloni, Argentina have become a team that plays disciplined and intense football, a team that plays cohesively as a team rather than relying on stars.
