An absolute boss. And the one whose leadership, whose virtues no one, absolutely no one in the team questions.Lionel Messi achieved the biggest goal in life, he won the world title with Argentina, and his teammates will never forget it, nor will they find enough ways to thank him.The extent to which Argentina’s football players look at Messi was evident during every minute, during every celebration in Qatar, and this was talked about in an interview made by Marca with the coach of the World Cup, Lionel Scaloni.”When Messi came to the team, he understood little by little what his role was. As soon as he came, he started talking in the dressing room, he felt comfortable. He is a leader on the pitch, everyone can see that, but he also always finds the right words to say in the dressing room. What he transfers to the players is something I’ve never seen even as a player. It’s very difficult to explain, people should see the impact he has on his teammates when he speaks. As his teammates watch and listen to him, that amazement by him. It’s incredible, it’s really hard to explain,” said Scaloni.##NAJAVA_MECA_6971174##After several failures with Argentina, Messi said goodbye to the national team. But Scaloni, when he was appointed acting coach, managed to convince him to return. He also discovered how.”The key word was – enjoyment. The first thing we told him is that we want him to come back and enjoy himself on the pitch. That we will create such an environment that he will only be able to think about the field and nothing else. We will create a team around you in which you will feel comfortable. In fact, everything was easy, because Leo likes to play for the national team, he enjoys it, so how can he not be happy”.The turning point in everything was winning the Copa América in Brazil.”Messi thoroughly enjoyed that Copa América and felt comfortable in the team, with his teammates. It was great that all the boys felt comfortable in his company. They could be who they were, they didn’t have to pretend. De Paul was the same as always, Paredes, everyone. And everyone asked him various questions that others would not. I think Leo also learned a lot then about the influence he has on others.”Lionel Scaloni: “If I had to choose between Messi and Maradona, it would be Messi. He’s the best player of all time, even though Maradona was also amazing. With Leo I have something special.” 🐐🇦🇷 pic.twitter.com/Q9KJkdSqIe— Bujju bae (@bujjubae) January 18, 2023 When asked if he thinks Messi will play in the next World Cup, Scaloni said:”Knowing how he feels, how happy he is on the pitch, especially when he’s wearing the Argentina jersey… Age is a handicap, but his staying in the team would certainly bring something… I’ll stop myself here, we’ll see,” Scaloni concluded.
