Pichi Alonso: Still it is left much to cross

That nobody and specially the own one interested, Leo Messi, takes this writing like a destructive critic, but all the opposite, like a way to try to help a young player who just by one season in the elite became one of soccer stars of the present time. Way goes to become number 1, many already place to him at the level of Diego Armando Maradona. In the modern times it is easy to encumbrar to a personage with possibilities. Formerly probably it was needed more time and more continued merits to have the consideration of great talento.

But that is thus in our present society and therefore it is necessary to accept it. I have been repeating is not a critic, the chaval falls to me fantastically well, for many seasons that already followed to him in the blaugrana base and it had always bet by him, and I continue thinking that it has extraordinary conditions to be a star, but attempt to analyze the things from the experience of my many years like professional in fútbol.

My preoccupation is born to see him play these last parties - Levante, Betis-. Hopefully this mistaking, but I have seen an apathetic Messi, extinguished, with the fallen arms, without spirit to participate in the game, rich, solitary, isolated that contrasted with the Messi of its ambitious debut, with hunger of ball, participativo, moving body. In present soccer he is indispensable to play with and without ball, also giving options to your companions when they are in possession of the ball, to create spaces, to create doubts in the rival defenses. To remain static in a position is to favor to the marker. Memory quite a already old trainer who always said to them to the forwards: imaginaros that you are going to hunt how you would like to have to the pieces: shutdowns or in continuous movement. Then it is the same in the attackers: mobility, mobility and mobility, that the markers do not see unemployed you. That Leo must be maniatado in a band, is the left or the right, is to limit much its possibilities of contributing all his juego.

Because it does not play like towards in the filial equipment as far as positioning. Also present soccer is attacks and defense, and logically to the small Argentinean it does not go away to him to be able to demand that it defends like Puyol or Oleguer, but that are shared in common and participate when the ball must recover. Modern soccer looks for complete players. And finally, not always the individual play must look for. That in the course of a party you can be 75 minutes without contacting with the ball, but in an individual action since you did before Levante it will leave a great action to you, you haggled to 3.4 or 5 defenders and although you do not obtain goal, like before the Getafe, the fans they began to corear your name in the field, but you do not let yourself blind for that reason, you must try to give the more, because your you can do it, and if not it beams now, I can assure to you that you will not the future do it in and the main one harmed, I assure to you, you will be you.
