2018/2019赛季西甲第9轮结束，巴塞罗那在主场4:2击败了塞维利亚。

Winning the victory should have been a happy situation for everyone, but Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde encountered siege from the Spanish media.

"In this game, Messi didn't play until the 70th minute. Before that, the score was 2:2. It wasn't until Messi came on the field that the stalemate in the field was resolved. With Messi's one pass and one shot , helped the team win. In the previous Copa del Rey match, you also put Messi on the bench many times. Does this mean that Messi is no longer important to Barcelona? Or is the coaching staff releasing a signal?"

The reporter's questions were extremely sharp, and it was extremely difficult to answer any questions about Messi in Barcelona. Once the answer was not good, he would face verbal criticism from crazy Barcelona fans.

For this reason, Valverde also pondered for a moment and said: "We considered Messi's physical condition, so we put him on the bench, and there is no other meaning."

"But Messi's performance on the field is still so good, we can hardly believe the explanation of his unhealthy body!"

Faced with harsh questions from reporters, Valverde's entire face became embarrassed.

I want to know too!

Obviously, the team doctor's report and Messi himself told him that he was not feeling well and his thigh often had cramps.

But there is no problem for Wei Mao to play, and his performance is still so good.

If it weren't for Messi not running so fiercely, or showing a painful expression after a period of time in the game, he would have suspected that Messi was playing himself.

However, these circumstances have also successfully shifted the blame to Valverde.

Rumors of 'not reusing Messi', 'giving up Messi' and so on began to flourish.

Especially after experiencing the last game, they could increase the points with Real Madrid, but Messi did not play and resulted in a loss and failed to increase the points.

This made the media even more aggressive.

In the end, Valverde also couldn't stand the fierce "fire" and walked out of the press box under the support of the press officer.

After returning to the locker room, Messi took the initiative to find Valverde.

"Sorry, they always do."

There was a hint of embarrassment on Messi's face. After all, it was true that he was injured, and it was true that he performed well.

Even Messi himself can't figure out his body. He has some injuries, but his performance is better.

Regarding this, Valverde's eyes were a bit resentful, but soon he sighed and said, "In the next game, I can't 'suppress' you anymore."

Messi nodded; "I understand, even with some injuries, I still want to play this Champions League game!"

After hearing these words, Valverde couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

If it is said that in the league, he can substitute Messi, but in the Champions League, especially when facing Arsenal, he can only use Messi as a substitute.

Even when Messi is injured.

After all, the current situation is that Messi is injured, and both Messi and Valverde understand this.

But the outside world does not believe that there is any way to do this.

What's more, Messi's injury is not particularly serious, Valverde also out of kindness, let Messi take a break in unimportant games.

But doing bad things with good intentions puts myself on the cusp of the storm.

Messi is also extremely sorry for this, and he took the initiative to express his position.

In the next match against Arsenal, the entire Barcelona is paying close attention.

After all, Arsenal is currently the strongest team in the entire Champions League strength sequence.

In the FIFA club rankings, Arsenal is No.3.

But this doesn't make much sense.

Liverpool is number one because they were the Champions League champions last season.

Real Madrid is second, because they have the most Champions League titles and have performed extremely well in the Champions League over the years.

Although Arsenal is in third place, from the current performance and the default among the Champions League clubs, Arsenal is the biggest boss.

It can be said that once Arsenal has some accidents in the group stage, other teams are happy to cooperate to get rid of Arsenal and directly kick them out of the Champions League.

"Can the body really hold it?"

Suarez found Messi and asked.

The latter nodded: "No problem."

Suarez breathed a sigh of relief and smiled; "I can't believe it, without you, how would we play against Arsenal, that guy Kay, the recent state is a bit too abnormal, he is almost like a monster."

Messi nodded in agreement.

Anyone who has watched Arsenal's game can't ignore Lucky's performance.

"Kay seems to be more involved in offense this season." Messi and Suarez walked out of the locker room together, chatting.

Suarez nodded; "This is for sure. He was originally a midfielder who was developing towards all-roundness. In fact, he could be allowed to play like this before, but due to many problems, it has been put on hold until now!"

"Sometimes I think about it, Kay is really good. In the 2016/2017 season, Arsenal encountered the problem of the professor falling ill. The whole club was in a state of turmoil. Patrice had to be the head coach. Leaving, Arsenal at that time was fragmented, with no strength left, and even one that could not be handled well, might be relegated.”

"But it was also a legendary season!"

There was a hint of memory in Suarez's eyes, and he said: "It's hard to imagine that a person can show that kind of amazing performance, and drag the team forward for a whole season. If there is no Kai that season, Arsenal Really might be downgraded!"

Messi was surprised: "So dangerous?"

Suarez smiled bitterly: "You are more dangerous than you think. You have never been a teammate with him, so I don't know very well. As long as that guy stands in the backcourt, I don't have to worry about defending."

Hearing this, Messi showed a hint of envy.

Don't worry about defense.

This sentence hit Messi.

After all, there are too many problems in Barcelona now, and among them is the problem of defense.

Sometimes, Messi also needs to rush back to the past to press.

Allowing a pure offensive player to make various changes, one can imagine how serious Barcelona's problems are.

"You said, can Barcelona buy Kay?" Messi asked hopefully.

In response, Suarez waved his hand and said: "Don't think about it, Kay will not leave Arsenal, that guy is Gerrard of Arsenal!"

Hearing this, Messi nodded silently.

At the same time, at the Colney training base in London, Arsenal players came to the tactical room to gather after completing training.

"First of all, when we face Barcelona, ​​the general tactics will not change. I don't think Barcelona can pose a threat to us!"

Mourinho's opening remarks were very domineering, which not only gave him enough aura, but also further boosted morale.

Seeing the expressions of the Gunners, Mourinho nodded slightly and continued; "Our offensive method is still the continuation of the previous league play. As for the offensive process, we need to ensure more defense and let Kay go. The tempo when instigating an attack."

"As for defending Messi"

Mourinho looked at Kante.

For a long time, Lucky has been the best candidate to defend Messi, but with the substantial growth of Kanter's defensive ability, Mourinho hopes to let Kanter do the job.

At the same time, let Lucky take more time to deal with other problems.

In this regard, Kanter did not have any expression of fear. He nodded towards Mourinho and said: "I will work hard."

Kanter is no longer the shy young man he once was.

During this time at Arsenal, against the backdrop of many championships and tough battles, Kanter's heart also grew up.

At this time, Kanter is very trustworthy on the defensive end.

"The tactics used in the specific game will be trained by the coaching staff in the next few days. The battle is imminent. I think you need to ensure your state and stop drinking and clubbing." Mourinho said with a serious expression; "The most important thing is No, no matter who it is, once I find out, I will make you regret it!"

Under Mourinho's cold gaze, everyone lowered their heads.

Unlike Valverde's weakness in the locker room, Mourinho is simply too strong in the locker room.
