Boca Juniors great Hugo Gatti says Barcelona captain Lionel Messi‘s form is declining.
The former Argentina goalkeeper has previously hit out at the Barcelona forward before, making no secret of his preference for Diego Maradona.
“I don’t care if they criticise me in Argentina.,” Gatti said on El Chiringuito.
“I’m very Argentinian and Messi is a phenomenon, but he’s not a phenomenon now
“They treat him wrong because they big him up and big him up and treat him wrong.
“He gets used to it and walks more on the pitch. He has to be better.
“Cristiano [Ronaldo] and him are the two best.
“Messi has to be better, he’s got used to playing at a weary rhythm, walking and those that know football think the same.
“Take off, kid. You have to play well.
“When there’s a player like Messi, like it was with Maradona and Pele, and his teammates always give the ball to him to win the game.
“They spoil the team and they don’t put everything they have into it.
“The team get used to giving him the ball and not anyone else.”
